Happy Friday dolls!!! In case you missed it this last week I shared a review of a pretty Mikarose dress and a brand new Mombo nursing pillow. I also shared an easy Spring/Summer craft to prettify your office desk!

This week the features from Fancy This #126 are all focused on organizing! I am in FULL nesting mode over here sorting through and getting rid of junk, switching rooms around, tidying and dusting… So let’s all get a little more organized this next week with these featured tips!

First up, let’s organize our blogs with these FREE sidebar titles from Angela of A Typical English Home. They even come in 12 different colors! Click over to her place to download and access those please. Thanks!

Next up we’ll focus on organizing the kitchen with Cleaning and Organizing Kitchen Cabinet tips from Kendra of A Proverbs 31 Wife.

And finally we’ll get the pantry organized! Life Outside the Box with the Cartens shows us how she made over her entryway closet into a nicely organized pantry!

Here’s a Featured on Truly Lovely button for you three mentioned above! Hope you’ll grab one and share it over at our own blogs!
Don’t forget each of these features gets pinned to our Featured on Truly Lovely board!! Check it out for past features and some fun ideas!!

Not the blog itself.

2. Please link only your OWN posts.

We prefer to see what YOU have been up to… not someone random.

3. Please grab a button and display it somewhere on your blog. On your sidebar, on your posts, on your linky party page. We aren’t picky!

4. We would LOVE if you would comment on at least one other link.

Just pop over and say “Hello, coming by from Truly Lovely”, or something more clever… You know…

Mombo Nursing Pillow

May 14, 2013 2 Comments

This post brought to you by Comfort and Harmony. All opinions are 100% mine.

Baby girl is due in July, so I have been really interested in and researching mom centered products lately. Especially products to help the new mom transition into motherhood more conveniently. Enter the brand new mombo nursing pillow from Comfort & Harmony.

Mombo Nursing Pillow Review

Here’s a little video of yours truly giving a quick description of what the Mombo nursing pillow is and how it works. A few notes… I am 30 weeks 4 days expecting in this video. Fun times. You’ll notice we have a cameo appearance from a nosey, little black dog. Thank you Pandy… And you’ll hear a few mumbles from the ‘camera crew’ now and again… i.e. My niece and her little friend were there while my sister in law filmed this for me. I’m going to call this video a mom in training success! Not everything worked out perfectly, but we got it done! haha…

So in short, Mombo is a brand new baby nursing pillow with two unique sides, a firm side for nursing and a soft side for lounging. It also includes a pocket for a small vibrating massager to make baby more comfortable.

Mombo Nursing Pillow Massager

Since I have yet to start nursing (or have my baby for that matter, haha) I shared the Mombo with my friend, Meghan and my baby godson, Reiner. Meg was impressed with the high quality of the Mombo. She has used other nursing pillows since having Reiner and said this was the nicest one she’d seen so far. It’s the only one that includes the battery operated massager that either of us has seen on the market. The cover is made of a super soft fabric making the pillow a cozy spot for little Reiner to kick back and relax.

After trying the Mombo while nursing Meghan also shared that she feels like the firmer nursing side will be much easier for me to use, compared to other nursing pillows, when it’s my turn as a brand new mom because it gives you more support while you’re trying to learn the best way to hold baby.

I personally love the pink cover, it will be perfect for baby girl once she gets here.

So how about you friends? Have you ever heard of or tried the Mombo nursing pillow? You can check out other Mombo products by liking Comfort & Harmony on Facebook or following Comfort & Harmony on Twitter. Mombo products are available for purchase at Babies R Us.

Hey there friends. Today I am coming to you with two very serious topics… The first… Why is there NOT a pregnancy section in each and every pharmacy!?! And the second… Why is it so hard to find maternity pants in a longer length!?! OK, so maybe neither of those are that serious of a [...]
