I gave Hipp fennel baby tea to my daughter when we were living in Germany. She was gassy and constipated. This warm tea helped her to get rid of the gas and eliminated the constipation. Nowadays, she is 25 years old, and today I'm ordering this tea for my first one month old grandson who has colics.Read Best Reviews of Hipp Instant Fennel Tea for Babies (200g/7.1oz) Here
Hipp makes two kinds of teas, for infants from birth and for older babies. I don't read Polish, however, it seems to me that the labeling on this jar matches the Hipp tea for babies six months and older, not the one for babies one week and older. The article description says from one week, and so does the little English translation label on the product; I believe this is possibly a mistake.Want Hipp Instant Fennel Tea for Babies (200g/7.1oz) Discount?

it's very easy to use, no more guessing and it saves time. I still poor a drop on my wrist, but it's only to make sure the nipple works. It's too bad it doesn't have an alarm so you know when a specific temp is reached.NurturePure Glass Baby Bottle (3 Pack)
I read a study several months ago where advertised "non-toxic" BPA free bottles leaked chemicals they weren't supposed to leak. The authors of the study found several brands that didn't. I was relieved to read that Nurture Pure was one of them that didn't! These bottles are non-toxic and free of Bisphenol A, pthalates and other plastics such as Polycarbonate and PVC. The nipples are silicone, latex-free, allergen-free and free of nitrosamines. There are small vent slits around the bottom of the nipple that can leak if your baby does not have the proper latch. My daughter never had this problem and they have worked well for her, but I agree with the reviewer that stated Dr. Brown's nipples are a good alternative. We have been occasionally using Dr. Brown's y-cut cereal nipples and they work fine.
To keep the bottles from cracking, do not overheat. A bottle warmer we used cracked several of our bottles, but this model also melted some plastic ones as well! We simply boil water, turn off the burner, and place the bottles in the pot to warm.
If the suction of the nipple comes lose--usually when the formula is very hot, we unscrew the lid, push the nipple up, and the problem is fixed. This has only happened a few times.

My husband and I bought a 3-pack of 8ounce bottles from Big Lots because we wanted a safer bottle (as compared to plastic). The ones we bought did not come with nipples. First problem: Any nipple we used with the bottle would come through crooked after the ring was tightened, which would sometimes cause leaks. THEN, after placing one in our bottle warmer, the bottom BROKE OFF. The odd thing was that the edges weren't sharp as all, so it was like it was secured in some way and just came off. I thought maybe it was because it had be used in the warmer though we had no problems with them being heated in the microwave so far. Today, a second one broke the same way while my mother-in-law was tapping a formula container on the top to empty it. We're lucky it broke before it was given to the baby!I DO NOT recommend these bottles AT ALL!

These bottles are really great. They are safe & strong. My only complaint is that the nipples have "vents", which leak every time my baby takes a drink. I purchased some nipples made by Dr. Brown's, and that solved the problem. These bottles are priced right, even considering the fact that you will probably have to replace the nipples. I would still recommend these bottles.Fisher-Price Healthy Care Deluxe Booster Seat
I had originally wanted to just go with an infant to toddler feeding station set up, but then I saw and purchased a Peg Pergeo Prima Pappa out of the PennySaver. Oooooh, Peg Perego... Had to have it...
I hated hated hated HATED that chair. It was huge. The tray was too high. It had a zillion and one little nooks and crannies to get food into. I ended up shoving it back and forth between the kitchen and the laundry room for months. Once my baby really got into eating solids (which he didn't do until 7 months) I fed him in his bouncy, on the floor. I just didn't want to deal with cleaning that high chair. Even once he got to be a better (neater) eater, the space issues drove me bananas.
I sold it at a loss and bought the Fisher Price booster seat instead.
I love love love LOVE this little chair.
First of all, it goes on our dining room chair so it takes up no additional space. My baby fits in it very comfortably it is just his size. I can put Cheerios on the tray for him and he can pick them up and eat them (although it does seem he drops and sits in them about half the time, too...) No nooks and crannies so clean up is easy. We can easily pack it up and take it to a resturaunt and he is so happy to sit in his little seat, smack the tray, play with his toys, eat his Cheerios we are able to eat out in public again. I never thought I would be a germophobic parent but I do appreciate being able to take our own seat along from a cleanliness aspect, too. This chair is inexpensive enough that if you are lazy, or just like to be prepared, you could even buy two and always keep one in the trunk of your car for going out.
I don't really see the point in having the tray insert the tray is so easy to wipe down but, who knows. Maybe it will come in handy some time.
I do have some concerns about this chair really suiting a child from infant to toddler. It does not recline, as some of the other boosters do. However, in my experience, my child really was not ready to eat until he was able to sit up right. I think that a lot of people force solids onto children too soon, partly in hopes of getting their kid to sleep through the night sooner, partly out of deference to grandparents. You can always feed your baby in his bouncy, if he needs a reclining feeding seat.
It does seem a little small to fit a toddler into, but once the tray is removed and it is used as just a booster seat, it will probably be fine. I really like that your child can get so close to the table using this little seat.
Thumbs up, way way up, for this little seat. I plan to buy two more as baby gifts for my brother and cousin who are expecting babies in October (not with each other).
--Update--
I had twins last year and we needed a second booster. I wanted to get the same one and we went to TRU to get one but they only had the yellow and orange one. I did notice it didn't have the extra tray, but I also noticed it cost less. Since the extra tray was kind of useless anyway, I didn't mind much. So we got the yellow and orange one and took it home and then I realized the height doesn't adjust like it does for the green and blue one. Arg, I thought. Then I thought, does it really matter?? The yellow and orange one is at the same height as the blue and green one when it is in the 2nd/middle position. So I just put the blue/green one in the second position, set the chairs up next to each other, and let the girls eat. Works just fine. I was a little miffed at the cutting out of features but it's nice that the price is lower and really these features aren't needed. I'd assumed the blue/green one was d/c'ed when I only saw the yellow but I guess that's not the case. So blue and green, or yellow and orange they're both good.I originally bought the "Swing Tray Portable Booster Seat" because it was cheaper and I thought that it would be just as good. Well, it fell apart. I got this one and have been very please. It's is like a travel version of the Healthy Care Highchair.
There is a removeable feeding tray that can be put in the dishwasher. It has a cup holder and snaps right on to the main (blue) tray.
There are three different height settings. This is great for traveling because different tables can be different heights.
The back of the car and the trays are removeable, turning the seat into a booster for older and/or larger children.
The seat is all one piece and there are no seams or crevices for food to get stuck in. It also makes the seat very easy to clean.
The seat has a three-point seatbelt that adjusts, so it can accomodate a growing baby and toddler.
The booster folds up and even has a shoulder strap to make it easier to travel with. There is a lid that snaps onto the feeding tray. It is also dishwasher safe. I like the cover you can put on the tray, just so you know it's not getting dirty.
There are straps on both sides and on the back of the seat. This makes it much easier to fit onto a variety of chairs. This is great especially when eating out.

2013 UPDATE: I changed my 1 star review to 5 stars. Hopefully this will be more helpful to people. I'm not going to edit any of my original review below. It seems like they've sorted out the issue with the similar types of seats. The awesome, adjustable version is the Healthy Care DELUXE! We loved it. As I'm typing this, this review appears under the listing for the Deluxe, and all the versions shown in the pictured options are height adjustable and show the snap-in tray and tray cover. This wasn't the case previously, so just check the options before you buy!ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Amazon should not be sharing the reviews for the old blue booster with the new yellow & orange one. The blue one gets 5 stars from me; it was perfect. We had to replace it so I bought the new yellow one.
The yellow one DOES NOT ADJUST up or down for height. My son's legs no longer fit under our table because we can't adjust it down far enough like we could with the blue one.
In addition, the yellow one comes with only the main one-piece white tray. The blue booster comes with a main blue tray, a white snap-in tray with a molded cup space, and a green tray cover. It's perfect for travel. The yellow and orange booster DOES NOT have these extra pieces.
I'm totally irritated that I was led to believe that this was the same booster, simply with a different color scheme.
2009 UPDATE: As of mid-2009, the names seem to be sorted out. The booster called "Fisher Price Healthy Care Booster Seat" (currently still in yellow), is a stripped down, non-adjustable model. It really has no advantages other than price, maybe (depends on the day!). It's not more portable even though it's smaller. The better seat, with adjustability, extra trays, etc. is now called the Fisher Price Healthy Care DELUXE Booster Seat, and appears to come in two colors at the moment. The Deluxe gets 5 stars!

We love this Booster Seat. It's reasonably priced and has every feature that parents in the real world demand.The good:
1) It travels well, as it can be completely folded in and it's straps used to carry it over a shoulder like a pack.
2) It can be set at 3 different heights for different tables and for your growing toddler.
3) It straps on securely and most importantly QUICKLY!
4) All straps adjust, both to the chair and to your child.
5) It doesn't have any cloth or nasty nooks that are hard to clean... Just a quick wipedown is all that's usually necessary.
6) Has a detachable tray with a food tray that comes with a cover. So you can play with playdough for 5 minutes before dinner on the main tray, and then break out your covered dinner when you are ready! Very convenient and sturdy.
7) Solid construction. Our VERY strong 2 year old can't get out of it or break parts off.
8) The straps will come off (with a little work) so they can be tossed in a washer
9) The food tray is dishwasher safe
10) It will grow with you as a booster seat even if you don't use it as a stand alone "high" chair.
I can't think of anything bad about it and that's saying something in the parenting world. Buy it and never look back. In fact, we just put in an order for our second one so we can leave one in the car so we are never without. It's simply fantastic. Our little one has started requesting this seat instead of his (soon to be retired) high chair. He loves eating dinner at the same table with his Mom and Dad.

I bought this because, after two children and two big highchairs, I realized that I rarely used the highchair anyway, so what was the point of having this huge thing taking up half the space in my kitchen? I almost bought the fisher price healthy care high chair, when I saw this at the store. I figured that if I didnt like it, I could always use it for trips to grandmas house. Well, I LOVE it!! It stays on our chair VERY securely, the dishwasher safe tray(s) are great, and I can fold down the seat so that you dont even see it under the table! I put both trays on the bottom rack of my dishwasher with no problems (our water doesnt get to a burning point like some though). It is soooo easy to wipe up after she eats. I also got one of those temperpedic pillow things and cut it down so that it fits on the seat and then made a cover for it out of PUL (water proof but soft). She didnt really seem uncomfortable but I like my babies comfy! I dont think I will even buy a new high chair when the next one comes! I would recommend this to anyone. Oh and my 4 year old DS fits in it perfectly too!Boon Switch Containers, 6.5 Ounce

Not only are they lighter than jars (which I long ago stopped using) but she can assert her fledgling independence and feed herself. And she gets a variety of veggies that she'd never get on such a regular basis.

I am so thankful for these vegetable packets. My child is an extremely picky eater and it is tough to get him all the needed servings of vegetables. He likes the carrots and broccoli packet and I often use it as a mid morning snack. I also love the convenience of bringing them along for his snack when we are out and about. Highly recommend!Want Earth's Best Vegetable Puree, 3.5 Ounce Pouches (Pack of 12) Discount?
My 14 month old loves having a pouch when it's snack time so I figured with this product, what a great way to get veggies in! I first tried the Squash and Sweet Peas and it was a hit! He also likes the Pumpkin and Spinach though this one seems to be a little thicker and takes him longer to finish. They are not as sweet as the fruit/veggie mix pouches, but that's obvious when you are ordering this item as it's not advertising any fruit added. I tried them both myself and they are both very good. In our opinion, great product!Green Sprouts Plant Fiber Dinner Ware Set
Update: We've been using this set multiple times a day for almost 3 months now. While I still really like I it, I am downgrading a star because of discoloration in the bowl. The sides of the inside of the bowl have become lighter, almost like they were bleached and there is an obvious circle around the picture in the bottom. Notably, the bottom of the bowl, where the picture is, hasn't discolored one bit. We're very careful about washing everything immediately after eating so it's not because of that. The only thing I can think of is that acidic foods are eating away at the bowl, but that doesn't explain why the very bottom of the bowl has no staining.

I got this set because I have a special needs guy and a 2 year old in the process of using different cups. Winston my 2 years old loves the fork so much he keeps asking for the fok as he calls in. The plate set is really nice set. The ceramic/plastic is very durable and can handle being dropped on all surfaces without shattering or chipping. Washes great hand or dishwasher and the design stays in place. The plate, bowl, fork and spoon are all decent size for the growing fingers and are very easy to hold and grab which is nice. They are on the slippery side, so beware of those messes kids love to create.I bought these for my 18-month old daughter. They are very sturdy and the graphics have not washed off after a couple of months of use (we hand wash).The First Years MiSwivel Feeding Seat
Buy The First Years MiSwivel Feeding Seat Now
We got this product a couple days ago and I am head over heals in love with it! My son is 8 months old and uses the seat in the upright position. At 23lbs he (for me) is pretty heavy. That being said the chair can still swivel and reline with ease while he is in it. My favorite part about this seat is the ease of use. To fasten baby in there is only one snap, which is great for wiggly babies. The tray is one of the best I have ever experienced. It clips on and off effortlessly. We have tried the seat on a number of different chairs, and it fits them all. You can wash or wipe down all the fabric, the added bonus is the cute gender neutral pattern. I have already ordered another one to keep on my parents house!Read Best Reviews of The First Years MiSwivel Feeding Seat Here
We originally had a hand-me-down standalone high chair for our daughter. I hated it but it gave me an idea about what I really wanted in a chair, and I feel that this MiSwivel fits the bill exactly. I love that it utilizes a dining chair it just seems like it's not in the way like the other one was. I did worry about my daughter falling forward, since the seat seems to sit very far to the front of the chair, but she seems stable and we've had no problems.Pros:
1) The padding and straps are easy to clean. We throw them in the wash about once a week, and air dry them (once my husband put the padding in the dryer, and it seemed to shrink. It still fits, but a little tighter than before). It doesn't take long at all for them to dry.
2) The tray is very smooth to operate snaps right into place and is easy to remove. My daughter has not been able to pop it off with her knees, either, despite a lot of squirming and kicking.
3) The tray is easy to clean I have never put it in the dishwasher, but usually use a little dishsoap and the sprayer on my sink.
4) The tray is big enough to keep her food contained (less mess on the floor), and now that she's 14 months old she can reach the cup holder. But it's also not gigantic like the tray on our old chair, which means that it's easier to manage and doesn't take up as much counter space while waiting for a wash.
5) The swivel feature is convenient, but wouldn't have been a deal-breaker for us. We do use it on occasion and it's nice to have.
Cons:
1) We got the pink because it was on sale (and we do have a girl) but it's obnoxious and does not blend into our decor.
2) There are several "joints" in the seat where it comes together to swivel, etc., and food does get into these crevices. It takes a little scrubbing to get it completely clean.
3) The pads come in 2 pieces top and seat. Because of this, sometimes the seat cushion slides around, making it difficult to get my daughter strapped in.
4) The cup holders look like they are sized to accommodate trainer cups that have handles on both sides, but none of my trainer cups actually fit into the cup holder. If she's using a cup with handles, we usually set it on the table and put her chair within reach. Usually she drops it in the middle of her food and eats around it, so she doesn't mind.
The cons are minor in my opinion, but I wanted to list them in case they were a deal breaker for someone else. We are very happy with this chair and my daughter loves it!I was a little nervous about buying this item given the fact that it's impossible to find in the stores and that this mediocre brand cost much more than many other similar products. But after using it, I have to say that I am really impressed with this chair! This is a great space saver seat that works well provided you have a chair with a wide seat and base. The whole thing minimizes into a padded booster seat once the child is older. The design is functional, practical and it performs wonderfully. The seat has a number of adjustments: 2 height positions, it rotates along the base with ease and also has 5 recline positions, which are not necessary for us since our baby is older than 6 months. Sitting in this chair, my baby is comfortable and supported(unlike the Fisher Price healthy care booster seat where she was very slouchy). I was debating between this chair and the Fisher Price space saver chair, which offers more cute patterns and has more user reviews, but miSwivel won me over on the ease of cleanup. The one piece molded seat is a breeze to clean as it doesn't have any seams or nooks to trap food and grime. The padded cover feels nice to the touch and is machine washable, but even after several weeks of use I still haven't needed to launder it because it wipes down pretty readily. The cover is reversible: one side has an wipeable material and the other has a softer fabric material (which I'm assuming doesn't wipe down but that part was not explained in the manual). Also the harness straps can be removed for washing and the whole seat can be pretty much disassembled for thorough cleaning. I love how easy it is to remove the tray because of the large springy handles (dishwasher safe). The harness snaps and unsnaps easily as well. I was hoping to find a more pleasing pattern, but couldn't find other colors in stock anywhere. While it's smaller than conventional high chairs, it's not really portable. My only complaints are that the plastic tray scratches easily, the harness straps are made from cheap nylon webbing and the dot to dot unisex pattern is meh.

Dissapointed that there is nothing on the cover that keeps food from one compartment from spilling into the other. Good for keeping leftovers in the fridge or for other uses at home, but no good for on-the-go use.i use these as a way to transport, fruit slices and wedges for my kids. IT is a small serving, for toddlers. But looks great and hold up during transit. Has a cute watermelon seed lid, and watermelon rind bowl. Also works well for arts and crafts, perhaps for fuzzies and popsicle sticks. or to hold crayons. Very cute and good price. Not cheap, considering it is a plastic container, but it does look cute!
