(Closed) BabyBond Review and Giveaway Ends 3/22



I've seen a lot of great breastfeeding products lately and BabyBond is certainly no exception! A typical nursing cover hides your baby, but BabyBond allows you to comfortably breastfeed in public while still bonding and connecting with your baby.


BabyBond™ nursing accessories cover mom, not her baby. Mom is able to maintain her modesty. Baby remains uncovered benefiting from the infinite opportunity to make eye contact, interact, and communicate. After all, dining is social.  
-BabyBond Website

With BabyBond, you can turn any top into a nursing top. Nursing tops are expensive, and usually aren't very stylish either. You don't have to change your entire wardrobe when you're breastfeeding. There are options like BabyBond to help you.

Flex style with burp cloth attached
The Original and Flex styles, which are designed to wear like a sash, allow you to nurse from the top of your shirt, but still keep your belly and back covered. The Flex style is the same design as the Original, but with a removable burp cloth on the shoulder.

The Couture style can function similar to the Original and Flex. It can also be used to cover the stomach and function like a belly band which allows for easy nursing from the bottom of your shirt. The Couture style is fully adjustable, comes in one size, and is probably the most versatile style for your wardrobe.

The double panel opening that each style creates allows for easier latch-on, and no covers to darken your view of your baby. The opening also helps to cover your breast above and below the latch to help you maintain modesty and privacy in public. Each style comes with a matching pouch for easy storage in your diaper bag. BabyBond is machine washable, 100% cotton, and made in the USA.

I chose the Flex style in the Charcoal color to review. First of all, the packaging is really nice, and very appropriate to give to a mom-to-be or any nursing mom. The cotton is soft, and not too thick for hot summer days. There are some very warm, beautiful colors to choose from that would coordinate with your current wardrobe too. 

Although I am not breastfeeding Buddy at this point, I can imagine loving BabyBond when the next one comes along. I tried it on and saw how easy it is to use too. Just slip it over your head and put one arm through. I like that you aren't covering your baby, and you can monitor what's going on a lot easier. Besides, why should you cover your baby? Breastfeeding is natural! You'd still need to make sure you are wearing a shirt that will button down, or pull down far enough but at least you don't have to invest in a whole new nursing wardrobe!

I believe that BabyBond would really encourage a healthy breastfeeding relationship with your baby, and also encourage mothers to feel confident when breastfeeding in public. All too often mothers feel awkward nursing in public when it should really be praised and given a huge "Thumbs Up!" Breastmilk is the best nutrition we can provide out precious little ones. I encourage moms-to-be to prepare yourself for potential newborn breastfeeding trials (like I experienced!) and give yourself access to all the tools, resources, and information available to succeed. Swarm yourself with LOTS of support and great tools like BabyBond to help you relax and make the transition to breastfeeding easier.

~Promotion Alert!~
 Get 25% off your order at BabyBond when you enter code TRM at checkout!

Price: All 3 styles can be purchased for $35 each. 

The Verdict: I'm really excited to use BabyBond when we have another one some day. Nursing clothes are super expensive, and BabyBond can work with your current wardrobe. The price is very reasonable considering the quality of the product, the money you would save by not buying a lot of nursing clothes, and you are supporting a product made here in the USA!
 
Buy It!
You can purchase your BabyBond at BabyBondNursing.com (Don't forget the promotion code TRM for 25% off!) or at various retailers worldwide.
