Great feedback from blogger and retail shopper

I love hearing from moms and dads who've discovered Bath Luve. Some find us online and others in the stores. Amber, who blogs at ambocullum.blogspot.com, receied a Bath Luve when her mother purchased one at Buy Buy Baby, one of the great retailers who carry our products. She liked it so much, she featured it on our web site and is offering one for a giveaway! Above is her little one, Bennett, content with his Bath Luve!

Blogger Jakell at smileadaygiveaways.blogspot.com borrowed her nephew to try out the Bath Luve. As you can see, he was all smiles!

Thanks to all the bloggers, moms and friends who are helping spread the word about Bath Luve. And remember, stores like Buy Buy Baby and Kohls offer baby registries so include a Bath Luve (or two! or three!) for the newest additions.l

Introducing Baby to the Big Tub

That first bath is a big step, and another big transition is when baby starts sitting up in the big tub. Bath Luve offers the same comfort and warmth for sitting babies as well -- making sure bath time remains a warm, fun part of the day. A big thank you to Nikki for sharing these photos of her son with the Bath Luve looking as cute as can be. Nikki shared these comments on her blog at dustinnikki.blogspot.com:

"He is older now so bath time has become a little easier. He still doesn't like it at first and when we used our Bath Luve, he warmed up to it much better than before. He wasn't shivering and was splashing in the water in no time. It was honestly a big difference from the last time he got a bath. I was glad that it made things easier because we also had to stop using his infant tub because he is too big for it and we had to put him in our tub."

She also has some great advice for using the Bath Luve with seated babies:

"Even though he is sitting in the tub, the Bath Luve still stayed in place really well. I have said it before, we love it. It really does make bath time easier and our little guy can relax a little. We can place the Luve on his front if we are washing his back and when we wash him in the front, we can simply move it to his back. He stays pretty warm this way! I believe that bath time should be as stress free as possible from the first time baby gets a bath. In my opinion, the Bath Luve reduces stress for babies and parents both!"

Baby's First Bath

New mom, Nancy, is chronicling the first year's of her baby boy's life at thekellynewlyweds.blogspot.com. I came across these precious photos of Luke's first bath, and Nancy kindly gave me permission to share them with you!

Here's what Nancy wrote:

"We found this treasure at Babies R Us when we were registering. It is a Bath Luve Frog, a specially shaped wash cloth to dip in warm water and cover baby to keep him warm when he's in the bath. We were lucky to get this item as a gift. It really works, and Luke is not at all cold in his bath!"

Mommy-to-be previews the Bath Luve

Blogger Vanessa is expecting her first baby, a boy, in August and took the time to preview the Bath Luve and review it on her blog.

She wrote:
"Not only are these products super cute, but I love that they will keep my little guy nice and toasty during bath time. As a mom-to-be of a boy, I can't tell you enough how excited I am about a product that will also act as a squirt-shield! So many of my mom friends have raved about this product and I can see why, definitely a must have on any baby registry."

Thanks Vanessa! Visit her blog at http://bit.ly/cAObQ3 to register to win a Bath Luve!

Enjoying the Pink Fish!

Laura, who blogs at newagemama.blogspot.com, wrote a great review of Bath Luve and then saw the Pink Bath Luve Fish at Babies R Us and had to buy it! She was nice enough to send this adorable photo of her little girl, Willow, with her new Bath Luve. So sweet!

Bath Luve Seen on MTV

My daughter's friend noticed a Bath Luve in a recent episode of MTV's 16 and Pregnant. I'm so happy to know that Jenelle has Frog Bath Luve to help welcome her little one. Here's a screen shot (a little grainy) of the crib, filled with shower gifts, including the Bath Luve. Check out the entire episode at:

I'll have to follow Jenelle's story - maybe we'll get to see her little one using the Bath Luve!

Cold, Unhappy Baby + Bath Luve = Warm, Happy Baby

A big thank you to Cindy who blogs at AkronOhioMoms. com. I really love the photos she took (posted above) and baby Edward's reaction to the Frog Bath Luve. Check out her complete blog entry at http://bit.ly/dy6Q6H

Thanks Cindy for your extra effort -- you really understand the joys of the Bath Luve. Now THAT's a review!

Spring brings new reviews and lots of baby showers!

Spring is definitely here finally! It's fun to open my inbox to find blog reviews from all over the country. Ethel in New Jersey, blogs at luvtosave.blogspot.com and recently tried the Bath Luve for her sweet daughter Emma.

"What I love about Bath Luve is that the size is perfect. It is not too big or small. It covers Emma's shoulder, chest, stomach and private area. And it still allows her to move her arms and legs. For the first time, she actually played with the water, splashing and kicking. I actually did not mind her staying longer in the water. It kept her warm and comfortable. I also like that is very soft."

Ethel and her family tried the "washcloth solution" for their older daughter, Olivia. She said the washcloth was too small. Her husband said "there has to be a better way." Thanks Ethel for saying there is a better way with Bath Luve!

Ethel says the Bath Luve is perfect for all those spring showers...we agree.

Bath Luve has a fan in the U.K.

I was so excited to hear from Fiona in the U.K. A U.S. friend of hers sent her a Bath Luve, and she sent an e-mail asking about ordering some for baby showers in England. In our correspondence, she sent this sweet picture of her little English Rose -- Darcy Rose. She's six weeks old and has been enjoying her baths. Fiona says her daughter shivered in the baths before Bath Luve. "But not anymore! She loves her Bath Luve!"

Thanks for the transatlantic message Fiona!

Another Bathing Beauty!

Thank you to Laura who blogs at newagemama.blogspot.com for her great review of the Bath Luve. Her daughter, Willow, got to try it out & both mom and baby enjoyed the experience!

"We received the Fishy Bath Luve, which is only one of several cute designs available. They are simple and fun to use. You just soak it in warm water and lay it across the baby's torso. Then you can wash their hair and get them clean with out them getting cold. Willow loved hers and really seemed to enjoy her bath for the first time since she came home from the hospital. Before Bath Luve, bath time was a time for constant crying and hysterics. Now she sits there calmly and even smiles sometimes. I can't imagine bath time with out it now that I have tried out the Bath Luve."

Two Luves are Better than One!

Happy Bath Luve customer Wendy sent me some precious photos of her little boy, Finn, along with a nice note.

"My son's bathtime has become something I really look forward to, and I know he loves it too. With his fish and froggy, he couldn't be happier. Not a tear anywhere! I am a writer and blogger, and I work in an office with 4 pregnant women at the moment, and I am spreading the word! Bath Luve is my go-to shower gift now! Thanks!

It's wonderful to have people take the time to send me these sweet pictures - it truly makes my day when I receive an e-mail like this! Thanks so much Wendy!

No more chills in Minnesota!

If a picture says a thousand words, these are priceless. Sarah, who blogs at http://www.minnesotamamasmusthaves.com/ posted these precious photos of her newborn, Aiden, both before and after the Bath Luve. Sarah wrote, "So Mr. Aiden wasn't a big fan of his first bath...but luckily we are the proud owners of a Bath Luve."

Another blog review!

Thank you to Jessica who blogs at winningmommys.blogspot.com. Jess gave Bath Luve a review and wrote she only wished she'd found one sooner!

"I remember when we first brought home our first born. His first month of me giving him baths was just awful...I knew there had to be a better way...The Bath Luve is genious!"

I'm so happy to be helping babies and their parents have more relaxing, fun bath times!

Following Your Passion

Melanie Conklin, a product designer from near New York City, wrote about the Momtreprenuers trend and how, especially in this economy, many moms are striking out on their own to replace their job or create new revenues for their families. Melanie sent me a note to use Bath Luve as an example -- of course I was happy to do so! I love encouraging new momtreprenuers on their journey!

One thing Melanie wrote which really hit home was "This mom took advantage of her experience as a consumer and it will most likely translate into success, unlike companies who enter markets with which they have no real connection. A lesson for the future of business = be true to your passions, for only then will you offer consumers a product that connects with theirs!"

It's true that my passion is for families and the quality time they spend together. It's amazing how rewarding it is to offer a product which helps parents and babies during the stressful times of bathing in the early months.

I wish all of you a Happy New Year! Pursue your dreams in 2010.

This made my day!

Jenna, who blogs at www.momsbalancingact.com, wrote a wonderful review of the Bath Luve, but my favorite part of her review are the pictures of her son Kaden - before and after the Bath Luve. Just seeing his sad face turn into a contented one was so wonderful!

Here's some of what Jenna had to say:

"We then placed the Bath

Luve on him and immediately noticed a difference. He was not upset and actually seemed to be enjoying bath time. It was amazing! The great thing was that the Bath Luve was plenty big and will allow for many more uses as Kaden continues to grow."

"Along with our Bath Luve we also received a Bath Luve Buddy. It was a great help in keeping the Bath Luve wet without having to take it off of Kaden. Not only can it easily be used to squeeze warm water onto the Bath Luve, but also as a wash cloth and even a soft toy once your baby is a bit older."

"After having had the chance to use the Bath Luve with Kaden, I don't know how we ever gave Kaelyn baths without it. It would make the perfect gift for any new parent or expecting parent this holiday season."

Of course, a picture does say a thousand words!

Blogger's newborn has great first bath with his Bath Luve

BethAnne Hunter, who blogs at happilydomestic.blogspot.com, had great things to say about the Bath Luve and her experience with her newborn son, "J."

"The day after I brought baby "J" home from the hospital I gave him his first bath. I got everything prepared and had his Bath Luve frog soaking in the warm bath water waiting to be used. I quickly undressed my newborn son and got him in his tub sling. He flinched for about 2 seconds, but as soon as the warm Bath Luve frog was draped on his body he calmed right down. Not a tear was shed and bath time was a pleasant experience."

"I have given my baby several baths since that first one and each time he has been able to stay nice and warm and bath time has been stress free. I recommend this product for every parent with a new baby."

Thanks BethAnne and congrats on your new little one!

Hooray for pink!

MaryEllen, who blogs at http://www.thedealscoop.com/, is one of first bloggers to review the Pink Fish Bath Luve. She's actually using it to bathe her daughter on the counter because the sweet little girl is still so tiny. Here's what MaryEllen had to say:

"Once I was able to use the Bath Luve on her, she was much calmer during her bath because she was actually able to stay warm! The Bath Luve is made from light-weight terrycloth so that you can wet it with warm water and then cover your baby with it to keep her warm without it being too heavy. Although the Bath Luve was intended to be used when the baby is actually in the water, it actually served its purpose just as much (if not more) when my daughter was out of the water since she was still cold. The shape of the Bath Luve is perfect since it keeps the baby's entire core covered, yet is easy to lift up when you need to wash her."

Thanks Mary Ellen! Hope you and your little girl have many fun bath times with the Bath Luve!

Another Blog Review!

A big thank you to Carrie, who blogs at over30mommy.blogspot.com for her review of the Bath Luve. She wrote, after using the Bath Luve for her daughter:

"Amy from Bath Luve was generous enough to send me the Duck Bath Luve and coordinating Bath Buddy for Wiggle Bean to try out. Being that the Bath Luve was originally designed for babies, I thought that it might be a little small for Wiggle Bean since she is 9 months old. This was not a

problem at all, the Duck Luve is a generous 14"x10". Bean is more active in the bath now and does not lay down to where we could cover her chest with the Bath Luve. I could barely get her to sit still enough to take a picture of her in the Luve. Wiggle Bean liked wearing her Luve as cape. This worked well to keep her back warm while she was playing in the tub and she loved playing with the Bath Buddy."

Another blog review!

Thanks to Hailey at http://www.cutelikemegiveaways.blogspot.com/ for her great review of the Bath Luve who asked her sister-in-law to do a hands-on test of the Bath Luve's results.

"I was able to pass it along to my sister in law for review to use on her most recent addition (ah sweet baby Zachary) - and she LOVES it (and I love that because it's my sister in law using it - I'll get it back! lol). Not only did she agree that it was completely adorable, but she was THRILLED with how well it kept Zach warm during his bath. Still able to play and splash around, without the shivering and crying from being so cold. Perfect!"
