Baby’s First Report Card

No one told me breastfeeding would be difficult and somewhat painful in the beginning. It always looked so easy and natural. After all, I have the parts and it is simply something I was born to do, right? Well, I read the all books but I think I may have skipped this chapter because when my baby arrived, I wasn’t mentally prepared and didn’t realized how much nursing would impact my time and my life. Needless to say, I didn’t ask for help. I gave up fairly early and as a result endured countless stares in the Nordstrom’s “Women’s Lounge” for whipping out bottles of formula for feedings – good God, was it annoying. So the second time around, I told myself that I could do this. I knew what lay ahead and promised myself that I would be a better planner. So far, so great thanks to support from family, friends, a hospital lactation consultant and the eco-friendly Lullaboards seen here…

Breastfeeding or not, the Lullaboards make for a great report card. You or your baby’s caregiver can track everything from feeding times to pumping ounces to dirty diaper changes. The dry-erase boards are a paper saving solution and come in four convenient layouts: newborn (0-3), newborn with pump (0-3), baby (3-12), and toddler. Ideal for hanging in then kitchen, these stylish boards also come in 12 colors/patterns and retails for $25.

Write, read, wipe, repeat – it’s doesn’t get any more practical than this. Between managing three small children, popular blog  BabyElan Daily, Stationary Boutique Paper Luxe Studio and PR & Graphic Design business, D’luxe Press & Design, it’s no wonder why busy mom Sarah Masci came up with such a helpful invention. Sarah is currently offering Project Nursery readers 25% off their Lullaboard purchase by using code PN25. Offer expires on May 31, 2010. I sincerely hope you find it as useful as I did. Thanks Sarah.
