Mombo Nursing Pillow Review

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Comfort and Harmony for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I was asked a few weeks ago to review a Comfort and Harmony Nursing pillow.  I was a little skeptical at first.  I had just stopped nursing my 1 year old a couple days before, and I already had a nursing pillow that I liked. 

 

But I decided I would give it a try.  I was still skeptical, because seriously, how else could you make a nursing pillow better.  It goes around my waist nicely, it props baby up a little to help with fatique in my arms, and its nice to use to help baby sit up a little better when they really want to sit up but still aren't strong enough yet. 

So when I received the pillow I was pleasantly surprised.  This pillow was awesome! 

My favorite parts of it:

  • it has a foam side to help prop baby up.  My favorite part of the foam side is that it gives the pillow some extra support so it doesn't bend as easily.  I remember back when I would be nursing a newborn and I would have to put a pillow under my nursing pillow to help prop the baby up a little higher.  I wouldn't need to with this pillow! 
  • The pillow is thicker than my regular nursing pillow.  This goes back to my last point.  I don't need 2 pillows to nurse a newborn anymore!
  • It has a little vibrator thing that you slip inside of the pillow.  This is a great idea!  I don't know how many times I have proped my baby up with my nursing pillow so that she can see around a little better.  The vibrator would hopefully help to keep baby calm longer!

  • The cover that I received from Bright Stars has soft minky fabric on one side and a nice, soft, wipeable cotton on the other (cause we all know what happens after a baby eats :) 

So next month in my garage sale that I am having, my old nursing pillow will find its way there.  I am keeping this Mombo around for the next baby! 

So head on over to Comfort & Harmony on Facebook or  Comfort & Harmony on Twitter and check them out!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Marshmallow Rice Krispies

I always seem to need a quick treat.  Whether its for a family get together, after school special treat, or I have a sweet tooth coming on.  I don't have time to wait around for cookies to bake!

So the other day my girls REALLY wanted a treat.  I was in a hurry to do whatever I was trying to get done that day, but wanted to make them a treat too.  So this is what we came up with.  Rice krispy treats are always a family favorite and a quickie, but I really didn't want those.  So I started to melt the marshmallows like usual and then decided to change it up a bit.  Here is what I did. 

Chocolate Marshmallow Rice Krispy Treats:
6 cups rice krispys
1 bag mini marshmallows (you can use the larger but the minis seem to melt lots better)
1/2 bag chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter (you can omit this if you want)


Melt the marshmallows, chocolate chips and peanut butter together.  I melted the marshmallows a little bit before I added the chocolate chips so they wouldn't burn.  Then stir in the rice krispy's .  Easy peasy and it only took me 5 minutes.  The girls were happy and so was I!


Yum, Yum!
