New Nursing Tops Designer

For those of you in the neverending search for the perfect nursing wardrobe (why is it so difficult to find this stuff?), there is a NEW kid on the block. Milkdaze will debut this March and I have high hopes for it because it's from the woman who designed the Hotslings pouch.

A Way to Recycle Your Used Baby Supplies

CNET NEWS.COM: As kids grow out of their clothes, beds and toys (at what often feels like a daily rate) it's easy to find your home cluttered with unwanted baby products. But instead of hanging on to what the kids have outgrown, green parents are now shipping off those baby slings and monitors to other parents through Zwaggle.com.

Zwaggle.com helps members donate a product like a crib or baby monitor, and in return, earn points to pick up something else that they might want for little cost. Members pay only for shipping for the desired item.
Read the rest of the article here:

The Zwaggle site doesn't have tons of listings yet, but it is a very interesting idea. The points make it different from craigslist.org or freecycle Yahoo! groups options.

If you check it out, let me know how it goes!
