Which baby swing should we buy?
Posted on 05. Jul, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
Our baby is five weeks old now, and I’ve decided I desperately need to be able to put him down for a while and get some housework done! I’m thinking of buying a baby swing, but I’m having trouble deciding which one to get. I’m stuck between the papasan cradle style swings (which are great for small babies, but will probably be outgrown by the time my son is 5 months old) or the more traditional style swings (which would last until the baby is almost a year old, but aren’t quite as comfortable for napping newborns).
Which baby swing did you use? What features were the most important for your baby? What would you recommend?
The three swings we’re considering so far are:
Fisher Price My Little Lamb Papasan Cradle Swing:

What baby necessaries i should buy in the USA?
Posted on 30. Jun, 2010 by Young Parents Guide.
Hi;
I am 6 weeks pregnant. We are living in Switzerland and Turkey and we are going to travel to LA.
Usually the products you can find in Europe and the USA are quite different. Since it is my first pregnancy I have no idea what should I buy from States. We will be going for app.1-2 weeks in May and I want to buy all possible baby products that are necessary/original and probably the ones that I can not find in Europe.
Could mummy’s suggest me what is a must, what would be the most original and essential thing to buy for newborns ?
Of course you don’t have to think what is in Europe and what is not, it will be perfect if you just write me the products you are using and happy with it. It could be any thing.
Thanks
e.g. like best diaper bag brand, best blanket, best pacifier, …etc.
