Childbirth is not for the faint of heart; labor and delivery are tough even for healthy women. Wearing the traditional hospital gown means a mom-to-be has to keep tugging or holding parts of it for comfort and modesty. It gets worse if mom needs pain medication or has to get hooked up to the fetal heart monitor. The already-uncomfortable heroine becomes a kind of 3D puzzle for docs who need to run wires or tubing around or through the gown. Pretty Pushers is out to change a woman’s birthing experience one gown at a time. Started by Mary Apple, who went through her own birthing drama, the company produces specialized apparel: attractive, functional clothing for labor, delivery, and the postpartum period.

After having their children, sister-in-laws Kristin and Anna Forselius discovered that baby weight was keeping them from getting back into their old pants. Like any new mom, they weren’t in any hurry to jump back into their maternity clothes and didn’t want to purchase in-between sizes just to get through the time it would take to lose the baby weight. They tried the rubber band trick used by so many before them and found it to be lacking, to say the least. Together they created Oopsie Loopsie as a more sophisticated and reliable patented loop system that won’t come undone.

Danzo Baby bows an update to its popular Hobo style. The new San Ysidro series of diaper bags is offered in a high-density nylon fabric, and it comes in three vibrant colors: Pumpkin, Grass and Ruby. The bags feature Vachetta leather trim, a gray-and-cream striped interior, silver hardware and a breathable, nylon changing pad. They launched into select stores in mid October and will roll out wider in the coming months.
