Bébé au Lait™ Bib Review & Giveaway

A Baby is Born, an Idea is Born. When Claire Ekelund gave birth to her second daughter in 2003, she was proud to be an active nursing mom but recognized that, once again, nursing in public was going to be challenging. Like many nursing moms on-the-go, Claire was quickly reminded of how difficult it is to gracefully feed a wriggling baby and hold a blanket in position. She searched high and low for a solution, but found that nursing covers on the market at the time were clinical, impractical, and difficult to find. Leaving the room to feed Baby in privacy seemed the only alternative, yet this was not always an option.
First Steps. As a modern nursing mom, Claire became increasingly convinced that there was a way to cover Baby and Mother with ease and style allowing Mom to breastfeed whenever and wherever she needed to.
Claire decided to create her own nursing cover, the Hooter Hider (dubbed so by an outspoken male friend): an easy-to-use, machine washable, multi-purpose stylish cover designed with Baby and Mom in mind. The difference between the patent-pending Hooter Hider and other nursing covers is the rigid neckline allowing Mom and Baby unobstructed eye contact during feeding and other thoughtful features such as a small-item storage and clean-up pocket made from the softest terry cloth. Mom sees Baby…Baby sees Mom…discreet…on-the-spot cleanup…perfect!

I recently had the opportunity to review one of the Bébé au Lait™ bibs and I was surprised at how well it was made. With having three kids I have used many bibs in my day. I remember the plastic ones from when my son was a baby. With my middle daughter I remember fumbling around with ties, which almost always had her hair stuck in them, and the Velcro that I needed to stand up and rip off of her. These bibs put them all to shame, and have become my new favorite product for feeding my toddler. Here are the details of their bibs:
A mealtime revolution.
Our two-sided Double Bib features Bebe au Lait’s signature chic prints on one side and plush terry cloth on the other. Perfectly oversized, it has two double sided magnets that seamlessly and securely fasten the bib across the chest with zero hassle. The absence of Velcro and cumbersome closures also mean Baby’s skin and cloths are protected. Totally reversible, with a possibility of four sides, this innovative bib allows for super clean feeding every time, even when busy moms and dads haven’t had a chance to wash it. (And yes, its 100% machine washable!)
Did you see that? It uses magnets to hold it in place! And it is so easy to remove once you are done with feeding time. I really love this bib. Not only is t extremely functional with the ability to reverse it but it is also very stylish and chic looking. I recommend these bibs to all moms and they even make great baby shower gifts! They have so many wonderful items on their website, so check them out today. And I have been given the chance to give away one of these very stylish and functional bibs in the Valencia style shown above to one Dirty Shirt reader. See below for rules:

I like the mint chocolate and parfait bibs. They’re really smart- my son always yanks the front to pull off all bibs and my daughters hair gets caught in most closures, this solves both problems!
