Introducing the Newest Bath Luve - Pink Fish!

We've been working on adding a pink Bath Luve for quite some time, and finally she's here! I have my first supply in stock for orders and am working on getting the Bath Luve Pink Fish added to the web store. A special for my blog and twitter followers -- order a Bath Luve Blue Fish online and add the word "pink" in the memo, and I'll send you the Pink Fish!

Here's an adorable picture of little Margaux with her new Bath Luve! She's all smiles, as you can see, and happy in her bath. Her big sister is featured in many Bath Luve photos, and Margaux is following in big sister's footsteps! Thanks to the Brown family for send this photo of Margaux -- pretty in pink!

Babies R Us also already has the Bath Luve Pink Fish in stock.

Don't forget the Bath Luve Buddy for the Pink Fish too!

What Bath Luve characters and colors would you like to see!! Let me know!

Bath Luve is a Hit in Hawaii


Kailani, a blogger from Hawaii, just posted a great review about Bath Luve at her blog at islandlife808.com. Kailani writes about the concerns many parents have about bathing baby:

"For me, giving baby a bath has always been a stressful time for me. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I’m always worried that she’s too cold, too hot, too slippery, too uncomfortable. I guess I can’t blame a baby for not wanting to leave their warm swaddle and be suddenly sitting in water. So I’m always looking for a way to make bathtime more enjoyable for everyone. Introducing Bath Luve."

She had a great experience using Bath Luve and is also doing a giveaway through Sept. 15. Her review got me thinking about another Hawaiian baby I received pictures of about a year ago - a 9-month-old cutie enjoying the Bath Luve and Bath Luve Buddy.
With all of this great feedback, don't you think I should take a trip to the islands myself????

Doubter Becomes a Believer!


A blogger and blog-follower in Seattle, Carrie, posted a great review recently - especially fun because she didn't initially see the benefit to the Bath Luve. With the help of her cute daughter Vivian, she's now a believer! Check out Carrie's blog too at growingababyinseattlereviews.blogspot.com.


"I have seen the Bath Luve advertised on a number of blog giveaways, but always thought it was a silly, unnecessary baby item. And then I won one over at this blog (veaterfam.blogspot.com). Tonight I finally put the product to the test, during Vivian's first real bath! We've been doing a sort of modified sponge bath/dunking in a small tub for her, since we didn't buy an infant bathtub. Today I decided to put my newly purchased toddler tub and Bath Luve to the test.I got the bathtub full of warm water and wetted the Bath Luve and then put Vivian in the tub... and it was instant happiness. SERIOUS happiness. She actually laughed for the first time!!! I tried to tape her laughing, but she tends to stare at the video camera instead of behaving, so it didn't work. But I did get some photos of her happiness."


"I think this is a great product- babies love being warm and in the water, and this helps them enjoy their time in the bath even more. The bath luve comes in a cute frog, duck or fish design. Go check out their site! "


First laughter & Bath Luve - what could be better!

A word from our "spokesmodel"

"Our family loves, loves, loves the 'Bath Luve!' We received ours as a gift from Amy after our first daughter Marin was used as a model for the 'Bath Luve.' Although she was out of the teeny newborn stage, it was still a necessity for her during bath time. Not only would we place it over her belly but she also enjoyed having it draped it over her shoulders & back. It was a great way to keep her warm & entertained. She often played with the 'Luve’ using it as a bath toy."

"Once our second daughter Margaux arrived, I couldn't wait to introduce her to the 'Luve.' Just as expected, it made her bath experience more enjoyable & comfortable. Bath time quickly became her favorite time of the day. She kicks & smiles like crazy when she hears the word & I attribute that to the 'Bath Luve.' The best part is she can now stay in the tub longer & have more play time with her big sister because she has the 'Bath Luve' to keep her warm!" - Sara (mother of Marin and Margaux).

Blogger Mommy gives Two Thumbs Up


Jennifer, one of the blogger mommies at bloggermommies.blogspot.com, gave Bath Luve a try with her little one and had great things to say!


"I absolutely love this product! Before using the 'Bath Luve', I seriously dreaded bath time. I felt like I was getting ready to torture my baby. She would scream, shiver and her little chin would quiver, it was awful. It was always a race to get the bath over with, and that would sometimes mean that she would be left with a soapy residue so I would end up wrapping her in a towel and finishing with a sponge bath."
"But now, "B" loves her bath time. She is more comfortable and no longer cries. Bath time actually lasts way longer now because she stays warm. I really like how the 'Bath Luve' leaves her arms and legs free for splashing and playing, which is a pleasant change from before. You can see from this picture how happy she is in her bath."

Auntie Blogger helps Mr. Fussy


Thank you to Robin, who blogs at http://www.lolidots.com/. She received a Bath Luve and shared it with her nephew, featured below.

"When I got one of these Luves to try out I immediately took it over to see my brand-new nephew! My sister-in-law had been dealing with a Mr. Fussy at bathtime so she was totally on board to try something new. As usual, he was fussy when taking off his clothes and laying down in the tub. Once she put the frog on him he stopped fussing! He loved it! He was calm and relaxed for the entire bath! How cute is he!?!"

Blogger officially has a new favorite bath product!


A big Bath Luve thank you to Ashley for her great review at veaterfam.blogspot.com. She's giving away a free Bath Luve too, so visit her blog to register! Here are some of the highlights of her review:


"Everyone hates it when small babies get cold in the bathtub. They don't feel warm or comforted or secure, and they usually start screaming! That happened the first couple of times we bathed Natalie. We started draping wet washcloths over her chest and tummy, which did help, but they didn't provide enough coverage and she usually still got cold. Bath's only lasted a few minutes, becuase we wanted to get her washed and out of the tub quickly so she wouldn't start to cry!"


"The Bath Luve is a totally genius idea! Not only is it totally adorable (which it IS!), it's also the perfect size to drape over baby's shoulders and cover their neck, chest, tummy and private areas. Her arms and legs can still move freely, and it's so soft and keeps her SO warm!

Frog makes a new friend: another blog review


Thanks to Heather, who blogs at mommylovesit.com, for this great review of the Bath Luve. She tried out the Bath Luve frog with her infant daughter and got great results.


"When wearing a Bath Luve, my daughter's arms and legs were still able to move about freely. We simply placed it in warm water, then draped it over our little cupcake. Bath time now lasts longer and is more fun for all when our daughter is happy and comfortable! I love that the product can also be used on older babies, like a cape, keeping the shoulders warm. The premium cotton is super soft and gentle on her skin, and I really think the Bath Luve makes her feel more secure in the tub!"


Check out Heather's blog where she hosts lots of fun giveaways for kids of all ages.

Pregnancy Magazine: Bath Luve is a Must Have



I have exciting news - Bath Luve was featured in the May issue of Pregnancy magazine. The article lists Must-Haves by celebrity designer Kenneth Brown, known for HGTV's reDesign. The items included are all touted as making bath time fun instead of frustrating. Bath Luve certainly fits the bill! Being a mother inventor, to get a mention in Pregnancy magazine is a great honor. Reaching parents and babies before the first bath is my goal!

Bath Luve Frog to the Rescue


A big Bath Luve thank you to Jackie, who blogs at http://www.monkey-mayhem.net/, for her great review of the Bath Luve. Here are some notable quotes:


"When I gave Jaxon his first bath when he was a week old, he screamed his little head off, he was cold and I tried my hardest to keep him as warm as possible. I then found Bath Luve!"


"As you can see in this picture, Jaxon isn't screaming at all! I soaked the Bath Luve in warm water and covered him with it and he was happy as could be! Bath Luve is still a bit big on him, but he's slowly growing into it. If I felt it was cooling down, I just poured a little more warm water over it. I was sooooo happy that he was happy with a bath!"


Thanks Jackie & Jaxon!

Growing into his Bath Luve and Bigger than his Buddy

An update on Kael, our family friends' little baby: he's doing great and is now 52 days old, after being born early. He's still in the NICU at the hospital but is growing stronger and bigger every day. His mom says he's filling out his Bath Luve and now weighs 4 lbs. 10 oz.
We're so happy to report his progress and to hear from his parents on how the Bath Luve has helped him stay warm during baths at the hospital. As you can see he's finally grown bigger than the Bath Luve Buddy! I love the photo of him holding on to his Bath Luve too!









Another Happy Customer


Madeline is a lucky girl - she has the full range of Bath Luve products - the frog, fish and duck! Here she is modeling the duck and showing much fun bath time can be. Photo courtesy of her proud dad, Jim.

Daddy gives Bath Luve a thumbs up on Mommy Blog Review



Jenn, who blogs at http://www.mommadanddaboyz.com/, wrote a great review about the Bath Luve. Her husband is the main kid bather in the family and gave the Bath Luve a big thumbs up.




Jenn wrote: "Daddy D's really liked how well it stayed on him in either position we used it. As he is the connnoisseur of bathing products, I asked him, and he highly recommends it."




Son Eli used the Bath Luve as a cover during his own bath and then as a cape while playing in the bath with his brother Nathan. "The Bath Luve kept him warm and playing with his boats with his brother for quite awhile," she wrote.




Also, as an experienced boy mom, Jenn had another perspective -- "And as boys come with their own unique 'plumbing,' I have learned over the years that often a bath for a son comes with a shower all its own. The Bath Luve covers that private area so I no longer have to worry about getting sprinkled."




Jenn is offering a giveaway of a Fish Bath Luve, so visit her blog at http://www.mommadanddaboyz/ to register before July 10.

Bath Luve helps out at the NICU


Our friends Beka and Derek were blessed, a little early, with baby Kael. He's currently still in the NICU, where he's been cared for since being born at 26 weeks and 2 lbs, 4 oz. Although he's in the hospital, he's already enjoyed his first Bath Luve bathing experience. "It will be fun to watch Kael grow into his Luve," wrote Beka in an e-mail with his adorable photos. Kael is now 32 weeks old and weighs 3 lbs, 7.1 oz. We're so proud of his progress!


It's so difficult for families to have their littlest ones in the hospital, and I know Beka, Derek and big brother Logan are anxious to have Kael at home with them. I'm already working on developing a preemie-size Bath Luve for our tiniest bathers.

Another Bath Luve review!

Thanks to Jennifer at jleighdesignz.blogspot.com for an awesome review of Bath Luve. She's also offering a giveaway for a Bath Luve which closes on June 8 - visit her blog to check it out. I loved that Jennifer mentioned our new shipping costs (we now have flat fee shipping for orders less than $50), and she also talked about Bath Luve's affordability, stating "with a price like that, you can afford to get all three." Having more than one Bath Luve is a definite advantage because when one's in the wash, another is always handy!

Thanks Jennifer!

I'm an Auntie again!




Cooper is the latest addition to our growing extended family. I'm thrilled he loves his Bath Luve & his auntie too. Here are some great pictures of my adorable nephew!






Bloggers that love the Bath Luve!

It's been a great week for Bath Luve reviews -- thanks to all the bloggers for their great comments and photos. Here's a few excerpts and some adorable photos of happy babies enjoying their baths with their Bath Luves.

Sarah, thriftyminnesotamama.blogspot.com, wrote "As a Registered Nurse who worked in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit I have to say this would be a must have for parents of preemies. Premature infants typically have a difficult time maintaining their temperature and this can make bath time a very miserable experience. By using the Bath Luve you are helping create a more 'womb like' experience for your baby, thus making bath time enjoyable."

Jessica, macmomof3.blogspot.com, wrote "I really wish I knew about this product so much sooner. It would have made those first time baths a little easier." (Just a note -- Bath Luve makes a perfect baby shower gift so first time baths can be soothing and less stressful for everyone!) Camilo's photos are featured on the right wearing the duck Bath Luve.

Lynette, mymomsview.com, wrote (after using the Bath Luve for 8-month-old Genevieve) "I would love it if Bath Luve made these for adults, maybe not in the same patterns, but something to keep me covered and warm."

Joelle, acesmommy.blogspot.com, wrote "Aiden and I have never really had a struggle in the bath department. For the most part he has always been relatively content, but always cold at some point. I felt bad for the little guy because he was so tough and didn't know any better that being cold wasn't an acceptable fun bathtime experience. As he's aged he's started to show a more opinionated reaction to the chill that befalls him every bath time. I was delighted that such a product as Bath Luve existed because what a perfect and fun for Aiden to be able to stay warm." (Aiden's photos are on the left with (and without) the Fish Bath Luve. I love the first one without the Bath Luve -- it really tells the story of "before" Bath Luve bathing.)
Make sure to visit these great mombloggers & enjoy every single bathtime!
