Heidi Klum is having baby #5. Here's Heidi's five mom must-haves:
1. Animated DVD- her family watches My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle and Max and Ruby.
2. Soothing music- they love the nightime music from Baby Einstien
3. Baby Bjorn ($79, babiesrus.com)
4. Magic Bullet- she loves to blend food to give to her babies. ($100, buythebullet.com)
5. Tutu Suit- "it's like a ballerina bathing suit" says Heidi Klum. ($60, nordstrom.com

All you mommies out there - Do you think you're addicted to the internet?
I just found this interesting article on parenting.com.

Would love to hear your feedback.
On an average day how long are you on the internet?

Are you looking for a baby shower gift? Someone you know just had a baby?

Here are a few things NOT to buy for a baby -

1. Baby bath seats - These seats attach to the side of the tub; older models may attach to the bottom with suction cups. Either way, they can give parents a false sense of security. They've been associated with roughly 120 drownings and 160 injuries since 1983.

2. Soft bedding

3. Sleep positioners

4. Changing tables with only 3 side rails

I found this article on consumer.org. Very useful information so please pass it on if you know of anyone having a baby or looking for a baby gift.

Is there anything else out there that people shouldn't buy for a newborn?
Would love to hear your feedback.

I agree with you newmommy08. That was one thing we couldn't live without either. We have 3 kids and they all loved the swing.

The one thing that we can't live without is a baby bottle warmer. This is the best thing to have when your baby wakes you up at 3:00am. We keep ours right near our bed so as soon as he wakes up i can get him and my husband can start warming up the bottle.

So far, the one thing i can't live without is my baby's swing. This seems to always calm him down whenever he gets a little fussy. My husband and I always say we have no idea what we would do without it.
