Desitin Diaper Rash Paste, Maximum Strength Original Paste 16 oz (454 g) Review

I have four kids, and I have tried every diaper rash cream out there. Nothing protects and soothes baby's bottom as well as Desitin Original. I don't like the creamy Desitin, it wipes off inside the diaper too easily. Desitin Original stays where you put it and works best to heal a rash, but can also be used with every diaper change to prevent diaper rash. A Mommy Must-Have!

Little Noses Decongestant Nose Drops, Gentle 1/8% Formula, Infants & Children .5 fl oz (15 ml) Review

Little Noses Decongestant Nose Drops, Gentle 1/8% Formula, Infants and Children .5 fl oz (15 ml)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I picked a box of this up several years ago when my 3 yr old had a terrible cold and was up night after night crying b/c her nose was too stuffy. Coughing so badly from post nasal drip she would cause herself to vomit. I was aprehensive at first using a spray decongestant on a young child...I know first hand how quickly you can become addicted to OTC nasal sprays unfortunatly. She absolutly hated the application of this stuff, but begged me to do the other side once she reazlied it actually worked.
A year later, I was pregnant and got a terrible miserable cold and had nothing on hand, so I tried these drops and to my surprise they actually worked. Now, I know you shouldn't use things like this w/o consulting your OB to be sure, but I was desperate and close to the end of my pregnancy. If it could unplug my nose in a few minutes I'm sure it can quickly help a child.
We have moved a few times since then and we lost the bottle or threw it out and now my oldest has a terrible cold keeping her up crying at night, nothing else is helping. She begged me for the nasal drops that worked, but I cannot find them in any stores around here anymore. Figured they were pulled from the shelves. I was so happy to see them on here, I know by the time they come, she will be hopefully over this cold, but I can keep them on hand for an emergency situation in the future.

The disposables work perfectly. What a great invention! Nothing to wash afterwards; the box of 10 is a good deal (one disposable per day) and its so much cleaner than having to clean something out after each use! The pink balloon collects the snot, protecting the inside of the aspirator. Thanks to Cleanoz, my baby's nose is clear in a few seconds, no more crying:)

Little Tummys Gas Relief Drops for Newborns, Infants & Children, Berry, 1 Ounce (Pack of 3) Review

Little Tummys Gas Relief Drops for Newborns, Infants and Children, Berry, 1 Ounce (Pack of 3)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My little boy has had gas since day 1. I was worried that he was too young to give medicine, but at his first Dr. appt (3 days old), the pediatrician told us we could give him Mylicon every 2 hours to help. For some reason, we couldn't find Mylicon or a generic Simethicone drop anywhere, and my husband found 1 of these at a pharmacy. At first I wasn't sure if it worked or not, but I then realized that if I gave it to him right after or during a feeding, he would burp more quickly/easily. It always took us a long time to get a burp out of him, so I know that was making his gas worse when he didn't get the air all out. I think it works best if you do give it before/during a feeding, rather than waiting till he's already in pain from the gas. He likes the sweet taste, and the taste helps calm him because he'll actually suck on his pacifier after the drops are in his mouth, allowing him to calm himself down (stop crying & soothe himself with the pacifier).
Recently, a pediatrician friend of the family recommended we try giving him a probiotic supplement that we could buy at Whole Foods or any health stores. We've been mixing 1/4 tsp. of baby probiotic powder, into a bottle of milk (breast or formula), and a week later we are definitely noticing less gas and more ease passing gas on his own. I still give him these little tummies drops at night to make sure if he's got any gas, it doesn't wake him up & helps me burp him quicker during the night feeding. Each 1 ounce package costs $11 to 13 dollars at pharmacies, so a 3 pack from Amazon at $22 is a great deal. Currently they are offered by other sellers, hopefully Amazon restocks soon!

Colic Calm All Natural Gripe Water Colic Gas Relief 2 floz Review

Colic Calm All Natural Gripe Water Colic Gas Relief 2 floz
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product has really seemed to help my 5 week old daughter. She was born fussy but became even more so at about 2 weeks old. I wouldn't say she truly has colic but she never seems satisfied and she does gets extremely fussy in the evenings. She has severe gas and gets the hiccups almost every bottle...those send her over the edge. It does offer immeidate relief of her hiccups.
Sometimes Colic Calm seems to help and sometimes it doesn't. I think when she is truly uncomfortable; it does help. Times that it doesn't help, I think it just may be her personality to be fussy.
One day I ate some leftovers from a resturant and got the worst stomachache so I decided to try some and I had almost immediate relief. I was sold after that. It has a great taste but the color is pretty freaky.
I think this is a good product and I just ordered my second bottle. This is the only FDA approved gripe water, which made me feel more comfortable giving it to her. When I read the ingredients on some of the other gripe waters, I noticed some that aren't exactly safe for babies.
Some of its drawbacks are that it is a terrible color and turns their poop funny colors an stains clothes but being able to relieve some of my baby's discomfort is well worth it.

Boogie Wipes Saline Wipes 3 packs Review

Boogie Wipes Saline Wipes 3 packs
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Whenever our daughter gets a runny nose we always start with plain tissue, but end up using Boogie Wipes as well to keep her nose from getting raw. There are pros and cons to these wipes.
Pros:
They are soft, the pack reseals well, the grape ones smell okay, babies and kids seem to like them better than tissue, no alcohol, and saline is good for dissolving crusty snot.
Cons:
-As another reviewer said, they are big, so unless you use them strategically, you will waste quite a bit.
-They are not recyclable or compostable and although the package says, "please recycle", I don't know of anywhere that you can recycle this type of packaging.
-The "fresh scent" smells like bug spray to me. The grape is okay, but gets kind of sickening after awhile. The menthol is strong and works well for adults. I agree with another reviewer that a completely unscented version would be great.
We do like them for what they are and will continue to buy them, but we use them very sparingly since it is so wasteful.

Weleda Calendula Diaper Care, 2.8-Ounce Review

Weleda Calendula Diaper Care, 2.8-Ounce
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is one of the best baby products I've found! My baby has sort of sensitive skin and the aveno and other store brands were taking quite some time to completely heal some simple diaper rashes. I strongly advice this weleda along with Burt's bee diaper cream. I'd reccommend either one, the weleda being a little more thin and Burt's bee a bit thicker. Attantion moms: All store brands are petroleum jelly based, which is not absorved by the skin as opposed to the bees wax and almond oil found on weleda and burts bees.

The medicine dropper is nice, but the nasal aspirator is THE worst one I've tried. There seems to be no such thing as an aspirator that doesn't hurt baby's nose, and that actually sucks right. This one has no suction whatsoever.

Gentle Naturals Homeopathic Teething Drops 1 Oz Review

Gentle Naturals Homeopathic Teething Drops 1 Oz
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We live over seas and finding anything for a teething baby is hard to come by. We were in the states visiting and we were in the store looking at everything baby and we just so happened to stumble across these drops. I'm always hesitant about giving my baby anything that that may contain medicine so I was so happy to find something all natural. She never wants to take medicine of any kind but she took this with no problem and she loved the way it tasted. At the moment I gave it to her she stopped crying and was a happy baby again. This stuff is great I would tell anyone who has a teething baby to give it them. This stuff hands down is the best stuff ever.

The First Years American Red Cross Deluxe Baby Kit Review

The First Years American Red Cross Deluxe Baby Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I vaguely remember reading reviews for this product when I registered for it. In my pregnancy induced happy haze, I disregarded people's complaints about some of the item in the kit. I should have listened, so I ask you listen now. You are much better off buying items that you will need separately. It seemed like a good idea to just get this kit and cover all my bases. I'd never had a baby before, I figured that someone had figured out what I needed for me and put it in this kit. This is partially true.
In the first few months, you will need a digital thermometer, a bulb syringe/aspirator, nail clippers or file, and hair brush or comb. These are the things from the kit that I have used so far- my daughter is 9 months old. So, out of 17 items, I've used 5 or 6. The other 11-12 have not been touched.
Of the items, I've used, I didn't like most of them. The bulb syringe is impossible to squeeze and offers no suction- useless. The thermometer seems to take forever to take a reading, which is no good with a squirmy baby. The nail clipper have been okay, I still use it, but I bet there are better ones you can buy separately- I've been meaning to get some. I had to remove the plastic cover from the clippers in order to see baby's nails better- the first time I used them I cut my daughter's finger because I couldn't see them well.
I like the brush and comb. But I would like any brush and comb, I'm sure.
I've ended up buying a new thermometer (that I love) and a new aspirator (that I also love). Yes, you will probably spend more money buying items separately, but that is because the stuff that comes in this kit is cheaply made. If you are an expectant parent and trying to plan for your first baby, just get a good rectal thermometer (I have a Vicks that I like) some good nail clippers or a tiny nail file, and maybe a little brush for baby's hair. The hospital will give you a good bulb syringe when you deliver. That is all you will need the first few weeks, and you should have quality products that work well. This kit will most likely disappoint.

This is definitely the set to get. It includes everything you'll need for baby well care in a convenient storage pouch. I tend to leave things all over my house but with this kit I never have to search for tiny items. All of the pieces I've tried so far work very well also. The clippers are my favorite since they are very easy to handle. The scissors work for nails as well. The brush is excellent....very soft bristles for my daughter who doesn't have much hair yet. Nail files and alcohol swabs are nice extras. The bulb syringe works better than the one from Gerber that I have and the thermometer was a cinch to use as well. I have yet to use the medicine dropper or water temp taker but I doubt there is anything wrong with those items. I also have to wait for my daughter's teeth before I test the toothbrush but it's nice that I have everything handy already. I love this set and keep it clipped on my nursery cart. It also comes with a useful book on taking care of your baby. Definitely the best kit with the most baby essentials.

This stuff really works. I have a baby that does not burp, so most of her air comes out the back end. Gas Drops work very well in helping her not have to work so hard to get those bubbles out. My doctor agrees that the Gas Drops do wonders in little babies that don't really know how to handle too many air bubbles. Have bought multiple bottles since Babies R Us is usually out.

Yo Gabba Gabba Medicine-Time Flavor Spray Review

Yo Gabba Gabba Medicine-Time Flavor Spray
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
PROS: It works, and in case your wondering, it tastes super yummy--for real, I tried it.
If you have children that routinely run away and hide from you like your a monster from Day of the Living Dead when you approach them with a teaspoon of medicine AND
your pharmacy doesn't offer Flavor X, this spray is for you!
Upon recently switching to a more convenient, local, and reputable pharmacy, I experienced the shock and awe of learning they did not offer Flavor X when filling kid's meds!!
(For those who don't know: Flavor X is a super-yummy additive in a variety of flavors like strawberry, bubble-gum, grape, etc. that only pharmacists can add to prescription medicines.) It makes life A LOT easier for parents of kids who have to take meds often.
After hinting, requesting, and nudging my new pharmacy didn't help, I searched online and found Amazon sells this spray, made by the same Flavor X manufacturer!
Although it is a bit pricey, the flavor is EXACTLY the same as the pharmacy-type Flavor X. These people have flavoring down to a science.
I sprayed some in my mouth from a distance and it is soooo good.
It works--I no longer had to chase down my lil' one. Having the kooky Yo Gabba Gabba crew featured on the front didn't hurt matters either--my kid trusted their familiar faces and allowed me to spray it into his mouth without hesitation.
Tip: Spray Before and After:
After spraying it in after the meds a few times, I decided to read the directions (when all else fails...) and realized that it works much better if you spray it in once BEFORE your child takes the meds and then a few times after:
Spraying the tongue before lays down a layer of yum before the yuck of the meds has a chance to set in and stick to the tongue. Then, after the meds do another shot or two of yum again to finish it off.
Furthermore, I experimented with spraying it onto the spoon of a particularly horrid smelling medicine, and that helped, too, according to my lil' guy.
Though it seems pricey for the small spray, I believe adding it at the pharmacy costs at least 4-5 dollars extra per med added, and the spray lasted us through several rounds of antibiotics over the course of several months (bad tonsils).
Cons: The bottle is too small!!! They claim like over a hundred uses, but let's get real--it takes more than one spray to get rid of super yucky meds. Count on this lasting you through a few rounds of antibiotics, which equals the price at the pharmacy, so its a good deal if your pharmacy won't add it.
