It’s been raining here lately, but on Sunday, the sun came out and it was warm and beautiful. I felt like laying in a hammock all afternoon.

Instead, I helped Josh mow the weeds lawn.

Although we ended up deciding that Pooky was going to spend her first few months sleeping in the Arm’s Reach Co-Sleeper, I was quite impressed by the Amby Baby Motion Bed when I was researching our options. It’s essentially a hammock for your baby, and I’d read some great things about how helpful it can be for babies with reflux or colic symptoms.

The Amby Baby Bed is made to “swaddle” the baby and gently sway with the motion of the baby, both mimicking the womb environment. The adjustable incline is ideal for babies with reflux since it’s often recommended to elevate the sleeping area to alleviate the reflux symptoms. Price: $227.95
