Today we are featuring a post from guest blogger Alyssa (my awesome sister-in-law). She will be sharing her “Mommy Must Have” every week.
This week I want to highlight my newest favorite thing for my 14 month old son Ethan. I used to live with my Baby Bjorn snuggly, it was the only way to get things done at home whether it was laundry, cleaning, or just walking around the house. Unfortunately like all babies Ethan had massive growth spurt and became to long for the snuggly, so I had to go back to holding him at all times which put a great deal of strain on my arms and shoulders. Then at the beginning of December one of my girlfriends brought over her son and she had this hip hammock on so she could carry him and still carry all of her stuff. So when it came time to do Christmas shopping and I didn’t want to deal with the hassle of my Cadillac of strollers I headed to my local Babies R Us and bought a Playtex Hip Hammock.
Playtex Hip Hammock – Black $29.99
Not only did it make shopping so much easier but it was so simple to put on.

First you adjust the waist band to your waist size, (I wear mine just above my hips because I carry Ethan higher on my hips), next you take your baby and hold them on your hip, after that you take the main part of the hammock and put over you and the baby and the other strap simply goes over shoulder. If you absoultley need it therer are instrustions on the inside of hammock. Plus you can wear it on either side and it has a loop for toys or a sippy cup ( my fav is from Gerber).
Well that’s all for this this week sign on later for my next “Mommy Must Have”
