FlyeBaby Review & Discounts

I don't know about you.... But one of my favorite things to do when I am flying is to check out all the newest products in SkyMall. 
You know.... that magazine in the seatpocket in front of you that is filled with all kinds of neat stuff.

Well on one of my most recent trips I was looking through SkyMall  & I came across 
What is FlyeBaby?
And Why is it A Must-Have?

It's a portable, hammock-style, fabric seat that secures to your airplane tray table providing a secure and comfortable seat for your baby that allows face-to-face interaction.....and when I saw it I thought to myself, "I have got to get one of those."

Bresden LOVES face-to-face interaction and keeping him smiling is a top priority in the confined cabin of an airplane.

I am happy to say that we had the pleasure of trying FlyeBaby out on our trip to California
(sent to us free of charge for this review) 
and Bresden Loved It!
It was a great way to give my arms a break from holding him and provided him with a comfy place to kick-back, relax and play.
The other thing that I love about FlyeBaby is that it has uses beyond just airplane flights
It is designed to also work on dining room chairs and beach chairs.
So it not only creates a secure, comfortable place for your baby on flights, but at home, at a restaurant, around a pool or at the beach.

According to the FlyeBaby website it is the ONLY multi-use product of it’s kind!

It's Machine Washable & Folds Up To Fit In Your Diaper Bag
and even comes with a Matching Drawstring Bag to Keep It In!

I'm sure that we will be getting a lot of use out of our FlyeBaby on future flights and I will be carrying it in my diaper bag (once Bresden is able to sit up unassisted)
for use in restaurants and at homes of friends and family as a portable highchair.

I'm sure that you are going to want to get one too so.....
FlyeBaby is offering a special discount of $10 off the retail price of $39.99
(the retail price was just lowered from $49.99)
and free standard shipping within the Continental US
just for Modern Mommy Must-Have readers.  

That Makes It Just $29.99! 

The Discount Code Is:
MM10

Looking for even more of a bargain?

I have a little insider info for you.....
A very limited quantities of FlyeBaby's that have minor aesthetic defects will be available on the website soon for a drastically reduced price of $17.99 (and that includes shipping).  These slightly imperfect FlyeBaby's have minor defects that are not that noticeable, will not effect the functionality and may be well worth the savings!!!  In fact, the FlyeBaby that I received for this review was one of the ones that just did not pass the quality inspection because the blue colors on the label were a little faded and not the vibrant blue that they are supposed to be.

If you are planning to travel with an infant or know someone who is I highly recommend that you check out
and get in on one of these great opportunities to save.
Also, keep an eye out for a new and improved version of FlyeBaby to be launched early next year.

Lots To Say Baby Review & Giveaway

We Are Back From Our Trip And I've Got
"Lots To Say Baby"....

I really do have "lots to say" about all of the
Modern Mommy Travel Must-Haves
that we had the pleasure of reviewing
while we were on our trip to California for Thanksgiving.

The first couple are actually from a company called

Check Out This
Totally Cute
"In Flight Entertainment"
Onesie
(sent to us free of charge for this review).
Who Wouldn't Want To Sit Next to This Little Guy On An Airplane?

As if the onesie were not cute & funny enough on its own....
I was cracking up when I realized that it also came with a pair of earplugs.

What a great way to break the ice and befriend a passenger who is lucky enough to have a front row seat for your
"in flight entertainment."

Bresden wore this onesie on our flight to California and got plenty of positive attention from the flight crew and other passengers.
He did so good on the flight there....
If only I had time to do laundry or had a second onesie for our return flight..... when a minor in flight melt-down actually did occur.

 Now that we are back from our trip and I have had a little time to do laundry I can tell you that this onesie (which I immediately noted was very high quality) washed up really nice....

I'm Hoping We Will Be Flying Again Soon
So That He Can Wear It Again.

I will also be keeping in mind that they offer an
"Are We There Yet?" onesie
 for roadtrips too.

Lots To Say Baby
offers more than just cute travel onesies though.

In Fact,
 They Are Probably Best Known For Their Pacifiers....

Maybe you have you seen their cute pacifiers with funny little sayings on them?

If not, you really need to check out their website.
We received one with the words "Pull to Sound Alarm" on it
(sent free of charge for this review).
So Funny, So True and Oh So Cute!
I also like that it came with a cover so it didn't collect all kinds of fuzz in our diaper bag.

Any Mom will tell you,
"Traveling with an infant can be stressful" 
but products like these
can help you and everyone else see the humor in things
and lighten up the mood a bit.

So if you are planning to travel with an infant or  you are just looking for a fun and unique baby gift

DO NOT Pack Everything You Need When Traveling With A Baby....

You heard me right....
DO NOT
Pack Everything You Need
 When Traveling With A Baby!

I know you are probably thinking that this sounds a bit crazy, right?
Well once you hear about this next company
you are going to think that the people who pack everything they need are the crazy ones.

I have had the pleasure of sharing some of the wonderful
Modern Mommy Travel Must-Haves
 that I packed and took along with me on our trip to Connecticut
 but I am just as
 excited to share with you
 what I didn't have to pack....

Thanks to

Thanks to the wonderful service provided by http://www.jetsetbabies.com/ I didn't have to pack everything that I needed for our trip ....a box filled with items that we would need once we arrived at our destination was waiting for us when we arrived (sent free of charge for this review) .
Why It's A Must-Have:

Instead of running around town buying stuff that we would need before we left and then trying to cram it into my (already jam-packed) suitcase I just sat down at the computer, picked out the items that we would need on http://www.jetsetbabies.com/ and they did the rest.

The box was waiting for us at my sister's house when we arrived.
I didn't have to lug a bunch of extra stuff through the airport.
I didn't have to be concerned about extra baggage fees.
I had the peace of mind that everything we needed would already be waiting for us at our destination.
We didn't have to try to find what we needed once we got there either...giving us more time to enjoy with our family.
When it comes to traveling with a baby or young child, they have thought of everything – no matter where you are going. Whether your trip is to the beach, a hotel with a pool, camping in the woods or taking to the ski slopes, they offer specialized packages to meet all of your baby’s needs for a long weekend, or a full week. From diapers and baby food to booster seats and portable beds, they ship and track your package to make sure it’s waiting for you when you reach your destination – anywhere in the world.

They carry the brands that your family already uses and trusts.
will even fulfill special requests
 for items not offered on their site.
So if there is something special that your little one just can't be without they've got you covered.
I was able to order Bresden's favorite "hard to find" pacifiers and Colic Calm...and it was super easy.

The representative who handled my order was great...she responded quickly to my questions and concerns, sent me updates on my order status and followed up afterward to make sure that I was completely satisfied with my Jet Set Babies Travel Experience!
 Thanks Maghan!

They also have
another website that I would love to share
 with you called


This website is your one stop shop for baby shower gifts that are sure to please new parents.
They keep their selecion of items limited...keeping it simple, so you are not overwhelmed with too many choices.
I love that they offer monthly diaper delivery services...
What parent wouldn't appreciate that?
I have had the pleasure of experiencing this service first-hand as I am excited to share that I was recently selected as the winner on their blog giveaway of a 3-Month Diaper Delivery....and it is great! 
I have already received my first shipment of diapers and included with the shipment was a magnet (complete with their phone number and website) so I can contact them when I am ready for them to ship out my next month's supply and let them know which size and brand I would like.
I cannot even begin to tell you how convenient this is!  
It's the gift that keeps on giving!

I highly recommend that you keep these two websites in mind when planning a trip or shopping for the perfect baby shower gift.

Become a fan of 
on facebook or follow their blogs
to get notifications of great deals, discounts, and upcoming contests.

You'll be so glad you did.

Baby B'Air Kept My Baby Safe In The Air

Well, we are back from our fun-filled trip to Connecticut
 Safe and Sound, 
thanks in part to the first
Modern Mommy Travel Must-Have
 that I am excited to share....

The Baby B'Air Flight Vest

Why It's A Must-Have:


The Baby B'Air Flight Vest is the
ONLY SAFETY SOLUTION for LAP HELD BABIES who fly.
 The award winning design
 secures your child to your lap belt
 to
 protect your baby against the unexpected dangers of turbulence
 and to
 keep your child safely on your lap during your flight.


I really don't know why these are not provided by the airlines for the safety of ALL lap-children.

We encountered some tubulence on our flight which could have made for a very dangerous...not to mention stressful and scary experience but I had the comfort of knowing that my baby was safe and secure in his Baby B'Air Flight Vest (provided free of charge for this review).
I could see how a child could be seriously injured if they were not wearing a Baby B'Air & I cannot imagine ever traveling without one.

Bresden didn't mind wearing the vest at all.
And I think he looked pretty cute wearing it!

The fabric was soft, pliable and comfortable enough for him to sleep in  & the strap was long enough that I could move him around on my lap and even feed him.

  It is important to note that there is an existing FAA regulation that restricts the use of all restraint devices other than car seats
 during take-off, taxi and landing
(a regualtion  that Baby B'Air is trying to get the FAA to change). 
But lucky for us, Baby B'Air is approved for use during the cruising portion of the flight when suprisingly 90% of injuries occur.
And you didn't hear this from me....but it just *might* be possible for a baby wearing a Baby B'Air Flight Vest to go unnoticed during taxi, take-off and landing....if you catch my meaning.

If you are planning to travel with a lap-child I highly recommend that you consider purchasing a
Baby B'Air Flight Vest
 for your child's safety and your peace of mind.
