CLOSED: Mommy Helps: The Preggo Planner and the Tot Tag (+ Giveaway)

* Click here to view the name(s) of the winner(s)*

When Heather Patterson started Braelyn Bounty Bug she kept it simple with just 2 products- the Prego Planner and the Tot Tag. Doesn't sound like much but as an expectant mother/new mother you will realize that these two products will soon become a part and parcel of your journey as a Mommy to be/New Mommy.


Prego Planner: Mommy's Help #1

Just before Bunny girl arrived into our world, my sister gave me this detailed baby book with lots of pages to fill. The zeal of being a new Mommy started me off with the first few pages filled to the brim with details, clippings and what not.

Today if I go back and look at the book, there are a few pages that have not been filled only because the information required was not pertinent to Bunny girl but yet those blank pages staring back at me is not something I really like! I have considered pulling those pages out but if I do, filled pages leafed together with these ones will come undone too! Sigh!!

Now that's where the Prego Planner is different.
This 7.5" x 9" planner is actually housed in a 3 ring binder. Every single page can be moved around, removed or you can even add additional sheets or 'must saves' into the planner without affecting the other pages in any way. (Definitely my favorite feature of this product!)



The Prego Planner includes

• A 12-month undated calendar (a great gift to stock for baby showers especially as the calendar in undated and can be given to the Expectant Mommy any time of the year.)
  
• Pages to hold critical information such as OBGYN/Midwife contact information, hospital information, insurance information, pharmacy information, test results, questions for the physician and a chart to assist in keeping track of monthly progress. (I love the 'Questions for the Physician' feature as there are times I have questions but forget to ask them while visiting the Doc. This way my 'concerns' can be recorded as they come in mind and then get carried along for my next check up.)
  
• Interview questions for potential pediatricians
• The ultimate nursery checklist to assist with registering for baby showers and keeping track of what items have been fulfilled and what hasn’t. (This is a big help especially as I feel I've forgotten what all I need for a new baby's arrival especially since I had Bunny girl 4 years ago!!)
  
• An essential "acts of kindness" and gift log
• A unique checklist of things to do before baby arrives (Another list that's so useful for me!)
  
• An area for the birth plan
• A hospital packing list for Mom, Dad and Baby (I love that there's a list for Daddy too!)
  
• Family and friends call list (Can't forget anybody, can we?)
  
• Post delivery checklist
• Space for postpartum visit questions
• A handy pocket for paperwork
• Coated and sturdy tabs that make the desired pages readily available

The Prego Planner is big enough to view all that you record without squinting, yet is small enough to pop into an average sized handbag when you go off to the store to list your baby registry stuff or when you go for a Doctor's checkup.

The Prego Planner is available online for 24 US$ or can be bought from one of these stores near you.

Tot Tag : Mommy's Help # 2

Ever gone somewhere and realized you forgot to pack an extra change of clothes for baby? Been there, done that? I think all of us, if honest, will admit to having forgotten a 'baby essential' some time or the other. Well, Heather has just given us another 'helper'- the Tot Tag!

The Tot Tag is a 3.3" x 2.1" laminated dual card. The 1st card, featuring one of my favorite verses " I am fearfully and wonderfully made" tightly overlaps over the contact details (Name, Address, Telephone Number) printed on the second card, thereby keeping this information hidden from public view, unless physically moved.

The back of the 2nd card has that essential Diaper Bag Checklist:

• Diapers
• Changing Pad
• Bottle(s)
• Bib
• Gas Relief Drops
• Diaper Rash Cream
• Stain Remover Wipes
• Wipes
• Change of Clothes
  
• Burp Cloths
• Pacifiers
• Diaper Sacks
• Fever Reducer
• Toy(s)

Yes, everything you'd possibly need for that outing with baby has been listed! This is also helpful if you have 'Daddy' helping you pack that bag.


Buy it:

The Tot Tag is available online for 3 US$ or can be bought from one of these stores near you.
