A new Danish study has revealed that kids who co-sleep with their parents are likely to reduce the risk of dealing with obesity. The unofficial reason given behind this is that kids who co-sleep with their parents are likely to feel a greater sense of emotional support compared to the ones who sleep on their own which are categorized as rejected.
The findings are indeed informative but it makes you think, how does this fit in with the whole SIDS issue? Apparently, a non-
Having a nightlight by your nursery should be a good idea so that parents can easily check on their babies in the wee hours and when all the lights are turned off. But if you want to be a little bit eco-friendly about it, the Modern Treetop Baby’s wooden bird house night lights should be a good enhancer, safe and non-toxic to have to keep your baby in sight.
The Modern Treetop Baby’s wooden bird house night lights are made from handcrafted and natural Japanese Kiri wood. They are ha
The HMDX Quad Alarm Clock offers a unique time-telling make but other than that advanced feature, this alarm clock also comes with a hidden camera. The added feature should be something that most parents would welcome, particularly for safekeeping and safety of their valuables and maybe even their kids.
The camera starts recording once the motion sensors sense movement. To review, people will just have to hook it up to their TV via RCA cables or through an SD
One task tied up with parenting is on how to properly take care of babies, especially the ones that end up crying at night or in the wee hours due to one reason or another. And normally when you think about it, a child’s cry at night may somewhat serve as a measuring stick of sorts on how good a parent takes care of their child, regardless if it is funny or not.
Apparently the Why Cry Baby Analyzer is a colourful device which should somehow tell you how well you take care of your child and att
We have seen a lot of gadgets used here and there to help monitor babies but if you have an Apple device like perhaps an iPhone or an iPad, here is something that should come in handy. This comes in the form of the Withings Smart Baby Monitor.
The monitor includes a camera and sensors that detect sound, movement, temperature and humidity levels. The monitor’s hinged design allows its wide-angle 3-megapixel camera to be tilted or swiveled into place when being set up. That camera automatically switche
Normally, parents would have to place babies in the proper positions for body or head shaping purposes, or simply to make sure that infants get the ideal position that suits them most when it comes to sleeping. And all that may be satisfied by the Jolly Jumper Deluxe Sleep Rite Infant Sleep Positioner, something that costs around $18 over at Amazon.com.
However, while this sleep positioned does seem comfortable thanks to the fabrics and foam construction that make it up, it would be a
We all know how handy blankets are for people, especially the kids when bedtime comes. They are either used as an aid to fend off the colder climates or at times, used for some sort of security or something to hold on to help them go to sleep.
Normally, lucky kids would not go through the trouble of asking a blanket from their parents but for the less fortunate, here is a cause that deserves attention. Children anywhere in the world are given a free blanket each time a blanket is bought through
For some folks, turning off the light helps in putting their toddlers to sleep. But the problem perhaps lies in instances where the baby would cry in the dark, sometimes even when the parents are in deep trance.
However thanks to technology, here is something that may help. This is the Voice Activated Crib Light with Womb Sounds, an advanced gadget which you can easily attach to your baby’s crib and at the same time soothe or attend to your child temporarily.

One would think that with the growing problem of co-sleeping with infants, adults and parents would be more careful and take it more sensibly. But with new reports of co-sleeping casualties for November, this doesn’t seem to be the case.
There were two separate incidents reported. One had to do with Yasmine Y. Ashley, a 1.5 month infant who turned unresponsive after sleeping alongside her mother and the mom’s said boyfriend. According to the Medical Examiner’s
Today we find another issue that is related to infant deaths when they are left to sleep. Crib Bumper guards may be a great way to ensure safety from bumps for babies but they do have another aspect that may be dangerous as well. And this is of course with relation to potential suffocation if parents are not attentive to such hazards. The American Academy of Pediatricians have bared a stern warning on the use of such bumper guards, calling and possibly advising parents not to use them. Guidelines have been set for
