If you’re about to be a parent, you obviously already know about car seats and strollers and bottles and onesies. But these new products might become some of your favorites. From sleek nursery furniture<\/a> to top tech to keep you connected to baby, these are the things you’ll definitely want to have when your new addition comes home.
A crib that’s cool to look at<\/b>
Nurseries are some of the chicest rooms in the house these days, which is great for parents who don’t want to sacrifice style just because they’ve made a person. The Babyletto Hudson 3-in-1 Convertible Crib made Babylist’s list of Best Cribs of 2017, and it’s not hard to see why.
It’s “modern yet timeless,” they said. And, affordable, at $341.
A crib that acts like a car<\/b>
If you’ve never had to grab the baby and the car keys and go for a ride to get your sweet little thing from screaming her sweet little head off, it’s probably only a matter of time. Many babies are soothed by the movement of the car, which is the idea behind Ford’s new “smart” crib.
The\u00a0MAX\u00a0Motor Dreams\u00a0cot is a “genius crib was designed for a Ford of Spain campaign by WPP’s\u00a0GTB\u00a0agency in collaboration with\u00a0Ogilvy and Mather,” said Forbes. “The \u2018smart’ crib simulates the best parts of a nighttime drive that induce sleep like clockwork. It mimics the engine’s rumble, the car’s movement and the streetlights passing by the window. Parents can even replicate a specific car ride that is tried and true, using their smartphone application to record familiar sounds, movement and lights.”
Unfortunately, it’s only a prototype – for now. In the meantime, you can try the Snoo smart cradle. “This gorgeous, high-end cradle was designed by industrial designer Yves B\u00e9har, so it looks like a work of art,” said Digital Trends. “The minimalist design includes lovely wood<\/a> paneling along the bottom of the cradle, slip-resistant metal legs, and a gorgeous white mesh enclosure that’s soft on the inside for the baby’s comfort. You strap your baby in a cute, little swaddling suit to make them feel happy and cozy, just like they were in the womb, and it buckles into the crib itself. The crib rocks at a variety of speeds and emits white noise to mimic the sounds a baby hears in the womb. The Snoo smart cradle is based on hard science, thanks to its creator, pediatrician and author Harvey Karp, and a team of Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineers. It’ll help your baby – and you – get back to sleep in peace, but the ultimate aim is to reduce sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) by ensuring your baby sleeps safely.”
Self-warming bottle<\/b>
It’s not something that’s necessarily for use in the house, but this self-warming bottle will make your life outside the house as a new parent much easier. “You can warm up your baby’s bottle on the go using the iiamo Go self-warming bottle,” said Business Insider. “The bottle is warmed up by heating cartridges that are environmentally friendly, disposable, and filled with\u00a0only salt and water. You simply put the heating cartridge into the bottle’s heating chamber, turn it on, and shake the bottle. Four minutes later and the bottle is ready to go!”
A swing that won’t clash with your decor<\/b>
A baby swing is a must-have, and, pretty much since they were invented, parents have had to overlook or endure design issues that didn’t exactly complement their d\u00e9cor. We personally love that the mamaRoo isn’t covered in storybook farm animals, and, more importantly, it gets high marks for its function.
“Anybody who’s ever stuck their baby in the car and drove around in hopes that she would fall asleep say, \u2018I,'” said Parenting. “Enter the\u00a04moms mamaRoo. It’s a swing! It’s a bouncy chair! It’s…the thing that will help get your baby to sleep. With five different movement settings – yes, “car ride” being one of them – this thing is sure to\u00a0soothe your little one.”
A newfangled baby monitor<\/b>
All new parents need a baby monitor, and they’ve changed a lot over the years. It used to be that just audio was OK, but in the time of daily tech advancements, that’s obviously not going to do. And neither will a “normal” video feed, either. Gadget website T3 likes the Motorola MBP853 Video Monitor, which goes beyond the typical offering with some state-of-the-art features, including “streaming HD footage from a neat camera, which can be mounted to a wall or any flat surface, to a wireless monitor. It packs a night vision mode, sound detection with visual alerts and a microphone, so you can sing lullabies into the device.”\n\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n [ad_2]
