I didn't know anyone else that had done this, so I had no one to turn to for help. I found that I had bad... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~224316329604 Sat, 25 Mar 2006 12:33:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_224316329604?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_220608695940?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author tvpaire - I discovered Gerber Breastmilk bags by accident. I have ordered some baby items off Ebay, and the seller sent me a brand new box of these with my items. Being that I was a full time pumper, I figured what a fantastic idea! At the time, I was using Avent... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~220608695940 Mon, 13 Feb 2006 00:42:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_220608695940?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_220037418628?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tvpaire - I can't say enough about this product!!!

(He's going through that stage when he wakes up the night with separation anxiety, so occasionally I bring him to bed.) When he was smaller, I used to stack pillows on one side and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~189740453508 Thu, 14 Jul 2005 10:43:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_189740453508?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_189631008388?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tvpaire - I bought this cup for my first baby. He began drinking from cups at around 6-7 months for water only. He loved the Tupperware bell tumblers. I bought this cup because, let's face it...Playtex is supposed to be the name in cups. I liked the fact that the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~189631008388 Wed, 13 Jul 2005 12:52:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_189631008388?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_189619670660?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tvpaire - I love baby products! I tend to buy all the new gadgets and try them. When this Playtex Hip Hammock came out I was very excited. I had a two year old and an chubby 8 month old who loved being held.

With my second child I was determined to breastfeed. When that didn't go well at all, I decided pumping was the next best thing. This pump allowed me to pump EVERYDAY, typically 5 times a day, for 7 months.

Our recently turned two-year old is still in love with his. (We are currently trying to break him of his habit.) He was a total Mams baby.

I think it was around $6.99- $7.99 at Babies-r-Us. I chose the red because I felt the white or yellow might show tomato sauce stain. It also comes in blue.

I thought sterilizers were a joke...besides I had a dishwasher - why would I need one? So, I took it back to Babies-R-Us for store credit.

So far, we have not had any problems with leaks. Others have said that these cups (Gerber) can be a little expensive.

My mom bought it for us because it was the same one she has used for my brothers and I 25 years ago. When she gave it to me, I really didn't think we would use it that often...boy was I wrong!

It's absolutely adorable! Positive Side: It's cute and everyone who comes into our nursery thinks it's nice looking. The price was a big plus for us.

One end plugs into your cigerette lighter, the other end wraps around your bottle (fits Avent bottles, as well as angled ones. But, I do not think it's supposed to be used with disposable bottles).
