Gifts for Rockin’ Mamas

I highly recommend baby wearing, and I especially love all of the fantastic infant carrier options that are on the market today.

I have some dear friends who are on the cusp of an adoption. They are first time parents, and actually came to me for advice.

One of the first things that came to mind as a must have for a new bundle of joy is a quality, comfortable baby sling.

Rockin’ Baby Sling and Rockin’ Baby Pouch are made for the modern parent.

Rockin’ Baby Sling and Pouch are made in the USA for the parent who wants to remain fashionable, functioning and true to their sense of self while nurturing their baby. Both can be worn in 5 different carrying positions to match baby’s mood and development up to 40 lbs, or 3 years of age. It is great for nursing baby and for just getting around. Wearing your baby is a gift for both yourself and your child. It has been shown to positively contribute to baby’s development and is an essential part of attachment parenting!

Rockin’ Baby Slings and baby pouches are available in the most amazing selection of fabrics.

Somehow they are “hip” without being “trendy”; I mean these fabrics will still be cool when it’s time to wear the NEXT baby.

I especially love the names of each design, which are borrowed from familiar rock songs. “A Forest” is pictured to the left. My favorite is, “All the Leaves are Brown.”

For the adoptive parent, “bonding” is quite the buzz word. I definitely understand the pressure of wanting to do the best for your baby, and always second guessing as to whether you are “doing it right” or “doing enough”.

I was so thrilled that Rockin’ Baby Sling donated a sling to my friends for their new baby, due next Tuesday! He (it is supposed to be a boy!) will be going home from the hospital with his real, adoptive family.

I am of the school of thought that if your newborn wants to be held all of the time, do it!

And if you need to actually get things done while holding a baby all day? You are going to need one of these!

The Rockin’ Mamas are giving away a Rockin’ Baby Pouch to one Mom Most Traveled reader!

These pouches are two sided and have zippers that allow them to be adjusted to four different sizes.

They look totally cool and can be used for five different carrying positions!

For a chance to win the Seasons in the Sun Rockin’ Baby Pouch (pictured on this post), visit the Rockin’ Baby Shop and browse. Comment here telling me your favorite design of sling or pouch!

This prize is an $82 value.

One winner will be selected at random.

This giveaway is open to US residents only.

This giveaway will close on December 14th, 12 midnight.

*Congrats to Andreah!

    Here’s your first comment!

    I’ve long admired Rockin’ Baby slings, and I’m especially fond of their website and the themed-names of their slings. The “Take it Easy” sling is my favorite pattern, although if I had to go by song, it would be “In Bloom” :)

    “I am of the school of thought that if your newborn wants to be held all of the time, do it!” ~ I completely 100% agree. 6 months later, I still hold Charlie whenever she wants, If something needs to get done I sling her or try to do it when she’s napping.

    And now I have about 6 different songs stuck in my head reading all the names for slings and pouches LOL! Good luck to all that enter!

    I really like the idea of the “black magic woman” pouch. My husband would totally rock that.
