Pregnancy PediaWise Pick #1: “Bella Maternity 3-Piece Pajama Set” ($155).
Comfort is the name of the game when it comes to pregnancy, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. The Bella Maternity PJs and Robe are made out of super soft pima cotton and modal. The pants are loose fitting with an elastic waistband (yes please!) and the top provides easy access for breastfeeding in the postpartum period.
Sophie the Giraffe is my favorite teething toy. Not only is it cute, but it’s effective. Babies typically start teething around 4 months of age and tend to get their first tooth around 6 months of age (one of the bottom center ones). Babies like to chew on the giraffe’s legs and head to soothe their gums.
Stacking blocks help toddlers develop their fine motor skills (developmental skills that require small muscle groups to work together). The Alma Stacking Blocks are great because they’re lightweight and portable. The blocks are numbered 1-10 and have various animals hand-painted on them, making them a wonderful learning tool, as well.
PediaTrivia: 15-month-olds can typically stack 2 blocks on top of one another, 2-year-olds can often stack 5-6 blocks on top of one another, and 3-year-olds can usually stack 9-10 blocks on top of one another (give or take).
