Maternity Shopping Tips For the Expectant Mom
Shopping for maternity clothes can be one of the most dreaded tasks of becoming a new mom. The unknown of how your body can change, and how fast presents women with a dilemma on what size and what silhouette will be flattering for them. There are a few key attributes when shopping for maternity clothes that each and every consumer should consider:
- How long can I wear this garment? Women can go through various sizes during pregnancy depending on one's body type and stage of pregnancy...the key is to purchase maternity tops and bottoms that are versatile and can change with you. The new trend (and to be honest, the more affordable trend) is to find stylish maternity tops and dresses that you can wear before, during and after pregnancy should you choose. Pants tend to be more difficult to last from start to finish, but there are various options such as the Belly Band that will help you get more wear out of both your normal clothes as well as your maternity clothes.
- How much do I want spend? Unfortunately maternity clothes are not the cheapest attire to purchase, and can vary significantly in size depending on the manufacturer. Set a budget and stick to it as the likelihood you will wear these stylish maternity clothes for only 9 months at a time is pretty high. Sign up for newsletters and e-mails from those baby boutiques or maternity boutiques you may think about purchasing from. Most of the time they offer coupons for your first purchase and will notify you in advance of a sale. Don't hesitate to ask if they have any coupons available...you may be surprised at the answer!
- Where should I shop? Maternity clothing this day and age is becoming a little easier to find. Large department stores, high end boutiques, and online maternity boutiques are various places you can search for the perfect maternal attire. Each type of business provides a different selection and tends to cater to a different clientele; however, the online maternity boutiques tend to provide more of a one stop shopping environment for those that are willing to try on after you buy. The key to purchasing maternity clothes online is to find a retailer that is willing to offer FREE return shipping on all unused, tagged garments within a reasonable amount of time after the purchase. You don't want to find yourself in a position where you have purchased that beautiful designer maternity top and find out that it barely fits one arm let alone your entire belly, and you paid $100 for it! The key here is that the boutique is offering for you to return any clothing that may not fit to your liking, so there is little to no loss if something does not fit properly. This method will likely provide you with a larger selection and will give you the ease of trying on maternity clothes in your own home.
These are the three key steps to ensure your experience with maternity shopping is enjoyable. Simply search for mommy and me boutique (a boutique that will allow for you to purchase both maternity and baby items) or maternity boutique to begin your search for your stylish maternity attire, and remember to always ask (specifically the owner) about special offers and discounts.

Throwing A Fun Filled Dora The Explorer Party
Throwing a Dora the Explorer party should be fun, for you and your guests! Send out your invites two to three weeks in advance. If you can't find the right invites, make them. Use bright paper and have on the front that Dora invites them to explore a birthday party with her! Find or make a map to your home inside with your child.
For a party of mostly young girls, get some old dress up clothing. Have them ready when the guests arrive. They can pick and choose and wear their new clothing during the party. If you don't have any good older clothing, head to a local thrift shop, they should have a lot of items for not that much. Girls adore dress up.
For more Dora the Explorer ideas for your party, have the kids make some bracelets. All you need are some pony beads and some string. Make sure that you have some extra help on hand for this activity.
Those that want something a bit more extravagant get some small backpacks and flll them with items that Dora the Explorer carries around. Don't forget the Map! Or get one larger one and fill it with interesting ideas. Have the kids pass the backpack around and have them take one object from it. Consider having the children go on an adventure using a map to find different activities throughout your backyard.
For a great Dora the Explorer party, you look into getting a Dora the Explorer piñata. If don't want to go with a piñata, read a Dora the Explorer story to everyone while they have cake! Most of all make sure that everyone has fun and has a great time! With this theme of a party, it shouldn't be any problem at all!

Forming a Strong Bond With Your Baby
Nothing is better than bonding with your baby. There is a feeling of joint ship and honor in being the mom to a baby boy or girl. It makes one feel full. But there are two different types of attachment that you need to be aware of. There is secure and insecure.
Naturally the secure bond is the better one. This leads to a secure relationship with a sense of trust between the mother and child and stuff. But the insecure bond can lead to all sorts of troubles later on in life. This is true as the experts say it is. But it is essential for both mom and child.
So, mom, how can you form a stronger bond with your baby? It may not be hard. But you have to take care of yourself and your child. It is hard. Mothers who don't get enough sleep can be restless and angry and resentful and have a hard time with their challenges.
You can actually strengthen the bond with your child by spending adequate time away from your child to make the bond stronger than it was before.
Feeding times and nap times are a couple of the essential bonding opportunities with your baby. These happen many times throughout the course of the day.
What is important is that your baby know you will be there when he or she needs you to be. That means responding in an adequate time to when your baby cries for you. You need to make sure that baby's needs are met. That means feeding her on schedule and at enough times.
Playtime is also helpful for developing the relationship between baby and parent. Look into your baby's face and take note to help make the lasting connections that are so important.
Naturally, you need to pay attention not just to the short-term needs of your baby, but also to the long-term effects of developing your bond with your baby.

Baby Shower on a Budget
Not only are the gifts affordable but the expectant mother will end up with some very eclectic items.
PURE PAMPERING
When a woman reaches about the seventh or eighth month of pregnancy, the cute maternity clothes are no longer "cute". The rounded stomach is in the way, sleeping and getting comfortable is nearly impossible, and all the woman can think of is "getting the pregnancy over with.
Obviously, nature has an amazing way of preparing women to give birth but while in that stage of pregnancy, she feels miserable. Instead of or in addition to throwing a standard baby shower, why not throw a "pamper party" for the soon-to-be mom. For this shower, have everyone bring something just for the expectant mother.
This might include some comfortable lounge clothing, chocolate covered cherries, takeout Chinese food, you name it, do it. She will feel so much better about herself and gain a much better outlook about the hard work of labor ahead of her.
PREGNANT GUESTS
When hosting a baby shower, to create a ton of laughs while also making the expectant mom feel good about her situation, have every guest come "pregnant" - men and women. A simple bed pillow rolled up and tied around the waist with an oversized shirt will do the job. While this is fun for an all-girl shower, it is even a better theme for a coed shower.
BABY TOYS
Rather than baby clothing, have each guests bring a special baby toy that could be used in the child's first three years of life. The variety will be wonderful and the cost savings to the parents huge. Not only is this baby shower theme excellent for a first baby but it also works very well for a second or third baby, as well as adopted children.
MEMORIES
For a special baby shower, create one filled with memories. In this case, each guest would bring a gift made in or representing the year the baby is born. For example, one guest might create a scrapbook with newspaper and magazine articles, another guest might bring a new toy developed that year, and another guest a picture frame with the year as part of the design.
BABY'S FIRST
With this theme, each family member or friend would choose something to represent the baby's first big event. As an example, a pewter fork and spoon for the first solid food, a pair of baby shoes for the first attempts of walking, a tooth fairy box for the first lost tooth, a silk or satin case for a lock of hair from the first haircut, or perhaps a cake gift certificate for his or her first birthday.
NURSERY TIME
If the theme of the baby's nursery is known, the shower could be specific to the decorations of that room. For instance, if the nursery were done in Walt Disney, then lamps, blankets, sheet, bibs, sleepers, diaper bag, and so on, all focusing on Disney would be on the gift list.
NAMING A BABY
For a fun baby shower filled with laughter and some very interesting names, create a theme around naming the baby. Throughout the day or evening, the guests will be asked to wear nametags of the name for a boy and girl they like best.
In addition, each guest will be given an envelope with anywhere from five to nine letters, chosen at random. Their mission, if they choose to accept it, is to unscramble the letters to come up with a baby name. This theme is wonderful and creates a light environment and some very strange names.
If the weather is expected to be nice and there is adequate room outdoors, set up a tropical oasis, complete with lights strung up outside, floating candles in the pool, Tiki torches, Hawaiian leis, and so on. Have beach music playing in the background and for food, serve ham, fresh fruit, barbecue, fruit punch, etc. This provides a relaxing environment for the expectant couple as they prepare for the big day.
AROUND THE CLOCK
For this baby shower theme, each guest would be assigned a gift that would be used at a specific time of day. For example, 7:00 a.m. could be a baby bottle, 8:00 a.m., burping pads, 9:00 a.m., baby food and spoon, 1:00 p.m. baby blanket for naptime, 5:00 p.m., bib and so on.
LIBRARY TIME
In this case, every guest would be asked to bring a book for the baby, ranging from those appropriate for six month to three years of age. Since books are so affordable and the variety so great, guests could bring one book, three books, or a book along with another gift.
SAFETY FIRST
With this baby shower theme, each of the items brought would be things to support child safety. This might include a non-slip bathtub, warm hooded bath towels to keep the little one warm, cabinet and drawer stops, power outlet plugs, soft toys, etc.
SPRINKLE SHOWER
If the expectant couple will have more than one shower, this would be an excellent option. For this theme, rather than guests buying large items, they would bring a sprinkling of small items that are used on a daily basis.
As an example, this would include things like shampoo, powder, diapers, baby wipes, lotion, socks, pacifiers, diaper cream, and so on. Mothers are always running out of supplies. With this theme, she would have a nice supply for months while enjoying the convenience and cost savings.
As you can see, when it comes to baby shower themes, the possibilities are limitless. As mentioned briefly, the most important factor to make any baby shower a success is to create a treasured memory. Yes, the shower is for the baby but it is also for the parents to share in their joy and help them celebrate the miracle of birth or adoption.
