Kourtney Kardashian's Limited Edition Belly Bandit was featured on Life & Style Magazine, which hit the magazine racks today!!

 Kourtney Kardashian gets ready to say
Bye Bye Baby Bump, hello Bikini Body
with her Limited Edition Belly Bandit®

While Kourtney Kardashian prepares for the ultimate gift this holiday season, her baby boy, she is also making big plans to get back to her rocking, pre-baby shape. How does she plan to do this? One way is by using what has been dubbed "genius", "a miracle worker" and the "must-have accessory" for moms post birth. Kourtney plans to use her very own Limited Edition Belly Bandit®, a belly wrap that has new moms, from celebrities to second-timers, returning to their original forms quicker than ever before.

Kourtney was first introduced to the Belly Bandit® by friends who swore by the product after giving birth. Kourtney saw the amazing results first hand and in true Kardashian fashion she wanted one that was uniquely her own style. She requested to design one that would make her feel sexy and feminine post birth and that is how the Limited Edition Belly Bandit® by Kourtney Kardashian was born. Kourtney’s Limited Edition bandit sets itself apart from the other Belly Bandit's in that it is a bit edgier and sexier than the other styles. With its beautiful faux lace design printed on the outside, and silky tan inside; this Belly Bandit® looks and feels silky against your skin. Our very first model that can actually be worn over clothing!

"My friends who have had babies swear by the Belly Bandit®. Honestly, I did not even know they had it on it until they told me, that is how well it wears under clothing. This is one fashion accessory I will be wearing everyday after my baby arrives." Says Kourtney.

Maclaren recalls entire line of Umbrella Strollers

by Kids Today

SOUTH NORWALK, Conn. – Gear manufacturer, Maclaren USA, is voluntarily recalling its entire line of umbrella strollers sold in the United States, after receiving 15 reports of children placing their finger in the stroller’s hinge mechanism, resulting in 12 reports of fingertip amputations.

This recall involves all Maclaren single and double umbrella strollers. The word “Maclaren” is printed on the stroller. The affected models included Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, TechnoXLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller.

In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Maclaren is providing, free of charge to all affected consumers and retailers, a kit to cover the elbow joint on the umbrella stroller’s side hinge mechanism which can pose a potential finger hazard to a child when the operator is opening or closing the umbrella stroller.

The strollers were sold at Babies“R”Us, Target and other juvenile product and mass merchandise retailers nationwide from 1999 through November 2009 for between $100 and $360.

“Safety is Maclaren’s first priority and through this voluntary effort we urge consumers to contact us immediately to obtain the kit which consists of hinge covers designed specifically to fit all Maclaren umbrella strollers,” states a press release distributed this morning. “These easy to fit hinge covers will insure proper precautions are taken by the operator to avoid injury when opening or closing the umbrella stroller.”

This voluntary recall does not relate to U.S. standards not being met. Maclaren umbrella strollers meet all U.S. ASTM and JPMA compliance standards. These certifications guarantee Maclaren umbrella strollers meet the required maximum safety standards.

“Maclaren umbrella strollers have served as the benchmark for quality for umbrella strollers and have maintained outstanding records for safety along with durability for over 40 years,” states the release.

To obtain the hinge covers consumers can visit www.maclaren.us/recall or call 877-688-2326.

To see the CPSC’s recall notice, including images of some of the recalled strollers, click here.

Maclaren USA stresses all stroller operators read the instruction manual prior to use which contains valuable safety tips and service recommendations.

“Since 1967, Maclaren has engineered its strollers to specifically exceed global standards for safety, reliability and durability,” states the release. “Nothing carries the Maclaren name until it is researched, tried and tested. Maclaren’s formal compulsory Zero Tolerance policy of safety issues is built upon the provenance when you buy something for your baby excellence is the least you expect.”

Maclaren offers the following safety tips:

• Always read the operating instructions before use—don’t force the mechanisms—stop and check the instructions.
• Keep children clear of the stroller during opening and folding.
• Never leave your child unattended in a stroller – even with the harness fastened.
• Always use the safety harness.
• Don’t overload the stroller. Heavy items hanging from the handles can cause the stroller to topple over.

Product Review: Go GaGa Gondola Diaper Bag goes to Ecuador

Right before my long awaited trip to Latin America I was asked to bring along a Go GaGa Diaper Bag instead of my regular diaper bag. Working for Best Baby Organics I get to test many fabulous products and this bag was no doubt a great item for my trip. The first two things I liked about my new Go GaGa bag were that these bags are manufactured by a FAIR TRADE Certified Company in Vietnam and also my bag was made from 72% post consumer recycled fabric.

I got the Gondola in Eggplant color. The bag has two insulated bottle pockets on the sides, which work great for me and my two thirsty toddlers. The interior of the bag is roomy enough to put 4-5 diapers in each of the two pockets, a pack of baby wipes, two changes of baby clothes + two baby sweaters, sunscreen, sunglasses, and more. There is also one large outside pocket on each side, which I used to put story books for the kids and magazines for the adults. But the one feature that makes this bag one of a kind is the strap, which can be worn cinched up with the comfy shoulder pad or spread out over your shoulder and upper arm.

I tested the strap during my long walks in airports while carrying a backpack on my back and the Go GaGa Bag diagonally across my torso, pulling a carry-on by the handle, and holding my child's hand (uff...I know!! ); and I must say that I really felt the difference when the strap was spread out over my shoulder. The shoulder pad is really comfy, but when you carry heavy loads you'll ultimately end up with that cutting pain that weighs down on your shoulder and neck no matter what. However, when the strap was spread out over my shoulder, the pain got dissipated. The load still felt heavy, but the pain was gone.

Also, because of its compact and modern feel, I can see already that long after our diaper days are gone, we'll still be using our Go GaGa to go places.

Words that describe my Go GaGa Gondola Bag:

* FAIR TRADE

* ECO-FRIENDLY

* COMPACT

* PRACTICAL

* STURDY

* DURABLE

* MODERN DESIGN

* ATTRACTIVE SLICK LOOK

So, I just got back from my family adventure trip to Vilcabamba, a peaceful tiny village in the southern part of Ecuador. Vilcabamba, "The Valley of the Ancients", is known worldwide for the longevity of its inhabitants, as many of them live past 100 years of age. Many scientists and theorists have visited the area in hopes of finding the secret to Vilcabamba's people's longevity. Some have said the nutrient rich soil or the region's water sources are the reason; while others have dismissed the claims as pure myths.

Regardless of the truth, we had heard so many great things about this place and wanted to visit for a long time. We finally got the chance to go this past October. I must confess that I was a bit apprehensive to go with our two toddlers (all of you with small children know how stressful traveling with kids can be, specially on longer trips). But we were really enchanted by Vilcabamba's peaceful paradise. What a magical place! If you want to really escape the world, be at peace with yourself and your surroundings, be as adventurous or as relaxed as you want, and explore nature at your own pace this is the place to go! --M.
