Mother and Baby - Baby Stuff

Our Baby area is filled with information and items you need to bring up baby!

All moms should be prepared for a safe pregnancy and growing a healthy baby. Your Ob/Gyn should be aware of any conditions that you have that might affect the baby's growth and delivery. Regular check-ups, with tests and an ultrasound, provide the status of baby and mom's health. These visits also allow the doctor to provide you with tips for good nutrition plus locations for classes on such topics as Lamaze and baby care.

We offer information to help you make choices. Diapers, cloth or disposable? Breast feeding or formula? Designing baby’s room: crib, mattress, sheets, blankets, changing tables, mobiles, pacifiers and Nuks, baby swings and strollers. Is designing your baby's room with green products important to you? Check the Local Resources section of each of our 16 Cities for a Guide to Daycare. We’ve got the goods!
