Featured Product: Shine On Toddler Tank


We are in love with this adorable "Shine On" Toddler Tank! We talked to Jenna, the owner of Heavenly Adored and what she had to say in her own words about her toddler tank featured on The Baby Burp this month. 

Knowing God's truth continually brings joy and comfort to our lives. Our desire at Heavenly Adored is to share His truths with the world in hopes that others can have that same joy and comfort. Our 'Shine On' design was inspired by Matthew 5:14-16. "You are the light of the world- like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.'  

 We pray our shirts remind you of the power of God's amazing unconditional love, grace and promises each time you put one on-and above all that it makes you feel good! Whether you're a new believer or a long time follower, you're always welcome at Heavenly Adored.

We are a family of 4 who loves Jesus and spreading joy to others. We are doing our best to live for God's glory and seeking His word in everything.  Thank you for supporting our dream, join us in sharing the true joy of Jesus! 

--Our 'Shine On' toddler tank is perfect for summer and your little will certainly "shine" for God's glory when they wear it!

Featured Product: Baby Swing Sling


How genius is this? We are so excited to feature Baby Swing Sling on The Baby Burp! Perfect to keep in your diaper bag or car! Here is a little Q&A we had with Baake, LLC the owners of Baby Swing Sling. 

1) What is the name of your product?

BabySwingSling TM  Portable Outdoor Baby Swing Attachment & Toddler Swing Trainer. It is a portable & affordable swing attachment that converts a standard park swing into an encompassing baby swing for infants and toddlers.

2) What inspired you to make it?

The idea came to us while we were celebrating Mother's Day with the extended family which included 5 children under the age of 2.5 years old. The park that we were at didn't have any baby swings so none of the kids were able to enjoy the swings. That got us thinking... "How is it that there isn't anything out there that can easily turn a standard park swing into a baby swing?" We knew there had to be so many other people who have experienced this exact same situation so we wanted to do something about it. The BabySwingSling TM is truly fulfilling a need.
  • It is the solution to parks not providing traditional baby swings.
  • Eliminating waiting in line for a baby swing since the parks that do provide them, only have one or two.
  • Furthermore, it is the perfect training and transition tool for toddlers who have outgrown the traditional baby swings, but are still too young for the "big kid" swings. Toddlers feel a sense of security while at the same time feeling a sense of freedom
  3) What makes your product different than your competition? 

Our patent pending product is the more superior choice over the competition because of the affordability, ease of use, and the compact design.  4) Tell us about you/your family

The inventors of the BabySwingSling TM are a father/daughter team. Ambyr is wife & a stay at home mom to 3 year old boy/girl twins and a to 1 year old baby girl. Ambyr's father, Bob, has a beautiful wife, two children, and a total 5 grandchildren under the age of 3. Ambyr & Bob knew from personal experience how the BabySwingSling TM was the answer for so many parents and grandparents. 



What Not To Say To A Pregnant Woman



Mila Kunis was recently on Jimmy Kimmel and had a little stint about "Men, stop saying we're pregnant". Having been pregnant twice- I have pregnancy sympathy for her and totally understand. To add to her feelings- I've continued with a couple of things my husband would say that didn't set well with me at the time.

"Your body is ruined." That was quickly re-worded after I glared at him to "I mean, your body is not going to be the same. Everybody knows that." I understand that my body is not going to be the same and I'm fine with that. To say my body is ruined does not sit well with me. Good try on the back tracking but I heard you loud and clear the first time. Something you don't say to a pregnant woman. Instead try: "You're always going to be beautiful in my eyes".

"You're snoring". Yes, I am- but that means I'm sleeping. Sorry that our growing baby is pushing all my organs up on my diaphram where I can barely breath, causing me to snore. Between the heartburn and back ache- I'm lucky to get some sleep. You don't have to wake me up to tell me because it's not going to go away. My husband starting bringing home ear plugs from work. "You're snoring" is something you don't say to a pregnant woman. Instead try: Nothing- don't say anything.

"Stop complaining". I'm not complaining just to complain. I'm complaining for sympathy. I want you to know that I don't feel good, my feet are the size of an elephant's, I can't sleep, I'm so hot, my face is broken out and swollen, my back aches, I can't walk 10 feet without breathing hard, I have the worst heartburn, and I could go on and on. When I'm complaining I just want you to know that I'm miserable and I would like some help or sympathy. We can get a little needy when we are pregnant. "Stop complaining" is something you don't say to a pregnant woman. Instead try: "Yes dear or I'm sorry" and leave it at that. (Or try to mend whatever she is complaining about".)

"You're going to eat all that". Yes, I am. I know I'm going to be miserable and want to throw up afterwards- but sometimes you can't stop eating that whole gallon of ice cream. Yes, I'm going to complain about it afterwards and ask you why you let me do it. "You're going to eat all that" is something you don't say to a pregnant woman. Instead try: "I love you" if the subject gets brought up.

So to sum it up really- watch what you say to a pregnant woman. We already know all this- we don't want to hear it from somebody else. You don't really want to mess with a pregnant woman's hormones. On a side note: My husband is still alive and I love him very much. 

What are some of the things your man said to you that got you upset while pregnant? Please comment!

Featured Product: Lifenest 2nd Generation Mattress



We are excited at The Baby Burp to have such new and innovative products! The Lifenest 2nd Generation Mattress is just that! Oz Distributors carry Lifenest because it's the only product out there that is a medical device registered with the FDA as a breathable mattress that is used to prevent Flat Head.  "I have seen in my previous career the devastation of skin breakdown and the diagnosis of Flat Head, " says Orna Zak, CEO of Oz Distributors.

The Lifenest is breathable as in the center of the mattress is a hammock like mesh that cradles the infants head just like you would in your hands. In the event that the infant should turn itself onto its stomach in the mesh/hammock portion it's breathable and has vents one to the right and one to the left which keeps the baby from overheating and it provides renewable air. The Greenguard certification is very important as well as the PTPA approval and the Lifenest is registered as a medical device with the FDA and Health Canada. It was invented by a doctor. The way to treat Flat Head is either physical therapy (then they go back on the Flat Mattress), or a Helmet which is worn up to 24 hours a day for many months.  The Helmet causes skin breakdown, they overheat during the summer, and are very cold during the winter. The stares that people and other kids give them while wearing the helmet is not pleasant all around. The Helmet could cost upwards of $3000.00 and is not always covered by insurance.

Orna Zak (CEO) has been in the medical field for over 30 years selling medical equipment for many different specialties from Orthopedics to Neurosurgery.

Successful Online Selling Tips- Good Quality Photos

Selling on an online markeplace, such as The Baby Burp, can be a lucrative and rewarding business. It is a very competitive business with millions of other products and sellers trying to compete to sell their product over yours. You can become a top seller if you really put effort and time into it and make your product stand out. That is really the just of it. How can you make your product stand out and get sold? If you are just throwing a product in a marketplace hoping to get noticed- that is all that will happen. I'm going to start a series of successful online selling tips outlining what the successful sellers are doing to get their products sold. 

Photos

The number one thing you can do to sell your product is to have a great photo of your product. There are people who simply refuse to buy online because if they can't see it in person, if it's not tangible, they won't dare buy it. So the next best thing is visual. Make sure they are getting a good representation of your product by the picture and description. We will talk about the description later, but for now focus on what you can do to get a good quality photo. 

1. Use a good quality camera that will give you high resolution images.
2. Use good lighting when taking the photo. (outside is always best)
3. Use good props.
4. Hire a professional.

Some of the best sellers take time and spend money to hire a professional photographer, especially if they have models. Sometimes a professional just has a better eye and can direct the models for a good photo that will represent your product.

Photoshop. If you don't have photoshop- there are many simple edits you can use to get a better picture of your product. If Aunt Lisa or the family dog isn't in the photo to help sell it, crop them out. Crop photos to solely have the product in it. Use the autocorrect to brighten or adjust the photo. There are many free photo APPs that can help with photos.  Just don't go overboard with the photo- adding glitter hearts and stickers can do more damage than good. Think clean, streamlined, and clear.

Another important thing to think about is to pay attention to the sites uploader requirements. For instance, on The Baby Burp, there are dimension requirements that best suit the site's photo uploader. Big images should be 283 x 269. For best quality results- take the time to adjust your photo to those specifications. Otherwise- the photo uploader will adjust it for you and the quality of the photo can become distorted. 

Lastly, if you have up to 5 additional photos to show off your product- use them. This goes back to being visual and trying to make up for the fact that buyer cannot have a tangible experience. Show different angles of the product, show the inside, show the back, and show how it is used.

This is just one of many online selling tips. If you're going to do any- this is the most important. If a buyer can't get a good representation of the product you are trying to sell, they will not buy it. Plain and simple.

The Baby Burp: Sayings from my son about his Dad


"Daddy, you make my heart happy!" has got to be my favorite and the most endearing thing I have heard my son say to my husband. The bond between my kids and their daddy is amazing and little sayings like this just makes my heart melt.  Even though my son is two, here are a few other things that he has said to me about his daddy that proves that children understand love at a young age.

1) "Daddy is silly", he says this in a lovingly way when my husband is goofing around dancing, singing, playing pretend with him.  He loves to be goofy like his daddy.

2.) "Daddy is a good guy", my son is becoming fascinated with superheros and understands there usually a hero and a villain.  He thinks his daddy is a hero.

3. "I'm helping to save people like daddy". My husband works at the ERT (Emergency Response Team) at work and is a firefighter and emergency medical tech. I see my son pretending to be a firefighter when playing and he somehow understands that daddy is a hero too, even if he isn't superman. He looks up to his daddy.

4. "Daddy works to help me". Awww. He knows his daddy works a lot and often misses him during the day or night because my husband works shift work. I'm guessing one of us told him that daddy has to go to work to provide. I'm sure he doesn't fully understand- but he will one day. He knows that daddy is at work for him.

5. "Daddy, I love you" Of course this is the saying that truly makes your heart melt when your little ones say this. We want to be loved as parents and when your little one utters those words- you know they mean it and it makes being a parent all worth it. He knows his daddy loves him too. 

What are some things that your little ones have said about Dad? Please comment and share!

FEATURED PRODUCT: Parker Time Potions Original


Parker Time is a specially formulated, all natural body care for kid’s that offers three different product lines available at The Baby Burp. These products have numerous moisturizing properties and provide opportunity for a child and parent to bond.  We consider Kelly, mom to Parker, a mommy inventor and here is more information about her and her products taken from her portfolio page:
When I became a new mom I found that it was especially hard to devote time to my baby with a full-time job, graduate school and just dealing with the many challenges of becoming a parent. As time went on I started noticing that my son, Parker, was not doing things that other kids his age were. These including playing, talking, crawling and even walking at a rate that was considered “delayed.” I did however notice my son doing things that were out of the ordinary, such things as:  repetitive behaviors, tending to become irritable when in busy social situations and not interacting with kiddos his own age.
Naturally as a mother I felt scared and as if I had done something terribly wrong to hinder my son’s development. I wanted to bond with my baby son and experience the joy of development and progress. I started researching, reading and talking to friends and family about what was happening with Parker. Throughout this process I found that massage was a way for Parker and me to bond when the “normal” avenues of bonding were not available. 
My family is in the all-natural body care industry and I was able to formulate my own massage products or as we call them now “potions” for my son.  This not only gave me piece of mind that I was using a quality product for my son, but it allowed us to slow down and bond with each other.  As a parent, any parent, scared, confused, happy, sad, or elated, whatever the situation….the parent child bond is priceless. These products have been very beneficial for my son and as I started distributing these products amongst my closest friends with younger children, these “potions” received rave reviews.
In the last few months as I have been continuing to formulate these products for my son, he was diagnosed with autism.  This brought on another opportunity for Parker Time to not only provide an all-natural product that is chemical free, but this product line will serve as vehicle to give back some of the proceeds to fund autism research.
My hope is that providing a quality product will give parents not only piece of mind that they are using an all-natural product but to allow them to slow down and savor those precious bonding moments with their child.
When asked about her family, Kelly replied "Our family consists of myself and my son Parker, we are two peas in a pod. Our favorite game to play is "Lion" where we basically play a game of chase and randomly turn around and ROARRR at each other, it ends up in a tickle fight. Parker and I also love to read before bed, after his baby massage of course." 
In her words as she says Parker Time Potions is AMAZING!

The Baby Burp: Featured Product- Tiffany Blue Chevron Breastfeeding Scarf



If you are a breastfeeding mommy or know someone who is- this is a MUST have! I'm telling you- if I was still breastfeeding I would have bought one in every style and every color! I hated putting on my "apron" and constantly pulling it around to fit over the baby. This is so genius! It's functional, stylish, already on you! Just pull the scarf down to cover yourself.  This gives your more confidence and more coverages to feel comfortable breastfeeding in public. Here is a little Q & A from Kismet Love Collection who have the aqua chevron breastfeeding scarf as a featured product this month.

1 ) What is the name of your product? 
Tiffany Blue Chevron Nursing Scarf

2) What inspired you to make it?
My youngest son inspired me to create Nursing Scarves. When I became pregnant with him, I knew from the start that I wanted to breastfeed. I began looking for a nursing cover that I would be able to use in public. The covers that I found just wasn't what I was looking for. I stumbled upon "Nursing Scarves" and just fell in love. What's better than wearing a scarf that all you have to do is open it up once your baby is ready to eat. Our nursing scarf can be used as a; scarf, to cover You and the Baby while breastfeeding, to just cover You while breastfeeding and as a cover while you pump.

3)Tell us about you/your family
I have been with the love of my life since 1999 and married since 2007! Our first born is our little miracle baby because we tired to conceive him for over 3 years and he was a micro-preemie, born at 26 weeks weighing 1 lb 8 oz in Aug 2010 (I pumped for him for 6 months). Our second son was born in March 2013 and he is the perfect addition to our little family. I'm the proud creator of Kismet Love Collection and everyday I count my lucky stars because I'm able to work from home and I get to be with my kids. When I breastfed my second son, my nursing scarf was my "go to" item, it went with me everywhere. I breastfed him in the parks, Dr. offices, airport, airplane, restaurants, mall, friends and family homes and the scarf gave me the privacy that I needed. I'm all about breastfeeding in public but I didn't feel comfortable in showing my breasts to the public. The scarf gave me the confidence that I needed to nurse in public. I truly love creating Nursing Scarves and I hope that my scarves gives other breastfeeding mommies the confidence and privacy that they need to breastfeed their little cutie pies in public.

4) Finish the sentence. (name of featured product) is ….....
Our Tiffany Blue Chevron Nursing Scarf is an item that every breastfeeding mommy should have.

Visit The Baby Burp today to purchase yours and for all your breastfeeding friends! I promise you'll love it!

The Baby Burp: FEATURED PRODUCT- Wipes Wraps


WipesWraps is a mommy invented product that is a must for every family. See why it is an awesome product with a small q & a from the founder Jill:

1) What is the name of your product?
WipesWraps Baby Wipes Covers

2) What inspired you to make it?
After the birth of my third child I had spent nearly 5 years with multiple disposable baby wipes tubs scattered around my home.  Then one day I had my "aha" moment...why do we pretend like the wipes tub is invisible when they're such an eyesore!?  Most parents keep two or three ugly plastic tubs in multiple rooms of the house, from living space to nursery and everywhere between.  And they stick around, for YEARS.  So I invented WipesWraps as the perfect finishing touch for a new parent's decorating adventure, great for the nursery, living space, and in between!

3) What makes your product different than your competition?
WipesWraps are a truly original, patented solution to turn the plain baby wipes container into part of the décor.  Totally interchangeable, they can be used with mom's favorite brand of baby wipes, and can be changed to reflect the season or taste.  As a stretchable cloth cover, they are easy to remove for a quick wash in the washing machine!

4) Tell us about you/your family
I'm Jill, dedicated mom to four awesome kids (a boy followed by three girls), spunky wife to my fantastic husband, unashamed coffee lover, and proud Bostonian.  In my former life, I was a trained bioengineer who worked as a Sales Director for a leading scientific instrument company, struggling to find a better balance between financial ease and family happiness.  Then one day, with the support of my amazing husband, I jumped into the world of baby entrepreneurship and founded CleverRelish, where we bring families CLEVER products that they'll RELISH using!  WipesWraps is our introductory accessory, the first of many "Smart Products that Dress Up Your Life".

5) Finish the sentence.  WipesWraps is the perfect finishing touch to nursery décor and the best $15 new-parent gift you'll ever buy, they'll use it forever!

The Baby Burp: My Gag Worthy Week



                        

Having to deal with sick babies over the weekend made me realize that some of the things I do as a mommy would have made the pre- mommy me gag. Here are a few things I did over the past week alone that would make anyone cringe (unless your a professional - hardcore mommy). 

1. Wipe a runny nose with your bare hands. This is what happens when you don't have immediate access to tissues or wet wipes in public.
2. Wipe a runny nose with your shirt. Reference number one.
3. Get thrown up on and catch vomit with your bare hands. Immediate shower.
4. Clean up poop out of the bath tub. One of the most gag worthy things I hope to never do again.
5. Realize an hour later there is poop on me from that diaper blow out earlier. Couldn't locate the source of the smell.

Yep, gross gross gross but I guess it comes with the territory of being a mommy. I wouldn't change my life for the world. What are some gag worthy experiences you have had with your kids? We would love to hear!
