Source: Rachel Zoe's Baby Skyler Has a Closet Full of Designer Goods

You're never too young for your first Louis, or are you? After showing the world her customized Alexander McQueen diaper bag that arrived before baby Skyler's birth, Rachel Zoe is asking her fans for their thoughts on the lil one's new Louis Vuitton version. This afternoon Rachel tweeted, "Is Skyler to young to have his first LV? So MAJ for a new diaper bag! DIE! Thoughts? XoRZ" It's the same bag Sandra Bullock was seen carrying with baby Louis last Summer - a personalized large Louis Vuitton Speedy tote, which costs a whopping $1,000! That's not the only bag the designer-draped tyke's mom uses to store his stuff. Just yesterday a friend shared a photo of Rachel Zoe's baby gear-stuffed Chanel purse, tweeting, "Did anyone else know that Chanel made diaper bags? LOL." Check out all of the designer duds lil Skyler's been sporting since he was born in March.

If you think it's hot out there, just imagine how an expectant mama is handling the heat. Mamas-to-be can get hot, hot, hot, due to extra blood flow causing higher-than-normal body temperatures in addition to the extra pounds they are packing. But, there are simple ways women with child can cool off aside from turning on the air conditioner. Check out our tips!

• Reduce Sodium Intake: It may seem obvious, but reducing your salt intake will help prevent swelling. Don't eliminate it completely though as it contains iodide, which is essential to the health of the baby-to-be.
• Remove Your Rings: Fingers are one of the first places a mama-to-be swells and heat doesn't help matters. At the first signs of swelling, remove your rings so they don't have to be cut off.
• Go For a Swim: A jump in the pool will not only cool a preggie lady off, but it takes some of the pressure off of the sciatic nerve and allows her to feel

Source: The Hottest Baby Shower Trend: Planning a Party For Dad

Moms aren't the only ones celebrating an addition to their family these days. While some parents-to-be opt for a couples shower, a new trend is putting the focus on the man of the house. A "dadchelor" party (also know as man-shower, diaper party, daddymoon, and dadelor party) is daddy's last hurrah before the baby comes. Often described as the male counterpart of a baby shower, it's actually more like a bachelor party but with diapers. And they've become increasingly popular of the last year or two.

Is dad-to-be complaining about feeling left out due to the baby shower? A dadchelor party might be just what he needs.

Only men are allowed at this fete, but you can rest assured that there will be plenty of beer, food, and diapers!

• The "Best Man": Planning a dadchelor party is a lot like planning a bachelor party. Designate a "best man" to play the part of host. After all, this is a men only party.
• Setting the

Forget teddy bears, flowers, and jewelry, there's a new game in town when it comes to new-mama gifts. Push presents have been around for years, but they're getting bigger and better. Just this year, Rachel Zoe was the lucky recipient of a 10-carat diamond ring after giving birth to baby Skyler, and Mariah Carey gloated about her new pink diamond and sapphire necklace after giving birth to twins Monroe and Morocco. But how would these mamas feel if they were given the gift of a trip to a fat camp to lose extra pounds instead of glittery jewelry?

Premier Fitness Camp, a fat camp of sorts, has put together a "Body Back" package intended to help new mamas return to their fighting weight. For $4,550, mom can visit the Park City, UT, retreat and receive daily fitness and nutrition training, massages, chef-prepared meals, and a complimentary Belly Bandit. According to the literature about the program, it is intended, "for

Source: Never Fear. The Milk Truck is Here

Despite all we know about the benefits of breastfeeding, nursing mothers are still harassed for daring to breastfeed their babies in public. One woman, Carnegie Mellon University teacher and artist Jill Miller, wants to do something about it. If she reaches her goal of raising $10,000 by July 27, Miller intends to create The Milk Truck, an old ice cream truck adorned with a giant breast that will swoop to the aid of breastfeeding mamas who are being harassed. A Batmobile for boobies, the truck will provide a comfortable place for mothers to feed their babies, with the added bonus of shaming anti-breastfeeding perpetrators.

The idea of a giant boob cruising around town is an interesting one, but will it really achieve its intended mission? When your baby needs to eat, he needs to eat, and unless the giant breast on top is actually a teleporting device, most hungry babies won't be able to wait around while the milk truck navigates rush hour

Source: Is Your Baby a Boob Grabber?

Babies have no shame. They burp and fart with abandon. They eat when they're hungry and stop when they're full. Basically, they do whatever they need to do to make them feel good in that moment, with no regard for social niceties. And for some babies, copping a feel is standard practice.

A few days ago my 18-month-old looked at a picture of his Dada and proudly identified him: Dada! A picture of me garnered the same level excitement; however, my lil one's sweet baby brain identified me as boobie. Not at all surprising as my son has had his hand down my shirt since he figured out what was down there. It made sense for him to be grabbing mama's breasts while he was still breastfeeding, but we're done with that, and he's still obsessed with boobies. He is not picky - any pair will do.

"He's definitely a boob guy," we joke. I know it's normal and natural, but in the middle of the night when he is digging around for a nipple (usually mine), it's not
