Attending a baby shower can be a fun and exciting experience. You want to make sure your gift is the hit of the shower as well as be something the mom can truly use for her new arrival. Baby gift baskets, baby clothes and baby essentials are traditional baby gifts that most patrons of the baby shower will bring. Recently, a new trend has taken the baby shower world by storm. Diaper cakes are diapers cleverly rolled to resemble a tiered cake. Then useful items, toys and baby products are used to decorate and theme the cake. Diaper cakes are a great way to bring a baby gift that coordinates well with the theme of the shower. Another popular trend is to use the diaper cakes as centerpieces for the baby shower. This way, mom can use all of the diapers and products long after the shower is over. If you are considering a modern and practical new baby gift, be sure to check out diaper cakes. The new mom will thank you.
Check out these wonderful diaper cakes to get ideas for your next baby shower.

Researches have come to find that babies mental and cognitive development can be enhanced through play. Babies learn much about the world around them through play. Since they are naturally curious and attracted to bright colored objects, giving them toys that tell them about the world is a great way to enhance their development. Interactive and educational books are wonderful for this purpose. Tell a child about a frog, he is sure to forget what you have told him. Show him an educational toy with a frog on it which he can touch, feel and see. Then he is sure to understand what a frog is. Educational toys are also great for exersice, muscle coordination, hand to eye coordination and more. When a newborn baby watches a ball roll across the floor when laying on his tummy, he is using his neck muscles to pull his head up and view the ball. When a 4 – month – old baby sees a bright colored cube rattle in front of him, he may begin to reach for it which can help stimulate his hand to eye coordination. There are many ongoing benefits to educational toys and Brown Eyed Baby Boutique is aware of it. We have introduced a new section to our already massive collection of baby gifts. Our educational baby gifts and baby gift basket section is designed to help you choose a unique educational baby gift for the family expecting a new baby.

For all the parents with a new little baby girl we have the Little Lady Baby Gift Basket. This basket has a “lady bug” motif and is sure to make for a cute buddle of joy.
Newborns are so cute and loveable so make sure to hug them many times a day. There is, what is called, “skin hunger”. A baby left alone without those hugs will surely be deprived of their emotional and physical needs that are so important in the first year.

Its not pretty to look at, but cradle cap is a harmless scalp condition common in newborns. It can appear anytime between two weeks to three months and usually clears up on its own.
The best way to remove it is to rub a mild vegetable oil or olive oil into your baby’s scalp a couple times a week, let it sit for 15 minutes then comb out the flakes. Then wash your baby’s hair with a gentle baby shampoo.
Now speaking of oils that are good for cradle cap, we have some special oils for mom too! The Herb Infused Stretch oil is a unique blend of light oils that will keep mama’s skin soft. A Little Something New for the New Mama set includes natural nipple cream, bottom spray and organic healing tea.

A panel of experts has recommended that all fifty states and the District of Columbia begin screening newborns for 30 genetic disorders that are detectable through a blood test.
For each of the 30 conditions on the list, there currently are things that parents and doctors can do to correct or avoid health and developmental problems later in life, such as changing a baby’s diet or feeding more frequently . None of the conditions can be seen by doctors at birth, but can be reliably identified through laboratory testing or analysis, and there is an available treatement for each condition.

Your baby’s first checkup begins right after birth when a health professional assesses the baby’s apgar score. This tests evaluates certain physical traits to help determine whether your newborn needs any immediate interventions or special monitoring. Temperature and vital signs are also closely monitored during the baby’s first six hours.
Your baby may also have the following soon after birth:
A hearing assessment. A thorough physical examination. Measurements of length, head circumference and weight. Injections, such as vitamin K. Antibiotic eyedrops. Newborn screening where they take a sample of blood from the heel.
In the first few weeks after birth, your baby begins a series of examinations by a health professional, sometimes called well child visits.
Routine checkups are a good time for parents to ask about what to expect in the weeks to come. Write down any questions you might have when you go to these visits!
Enjoy your baby!!!

Before you start your baby’s bath make sure you have all of your supplies ready to go. Keep a phone within reach and have clothes, towels, baby shampoo and rubbing alcohol for newborns with their cords on.
One very important reminder, never leave your baby for any reason.
Keep your room warm and make sure you don’t have a draft. Your water heater should be set to below 120 degrees (this will protect your baby and also save you money) Test the bath water on the inside of your wrist, it should feel comfortable.
Try and keep the umbilical cord from getting wet. If it does get wet, dab rubbing alcohol on it after the bath.
