This is comedy GOLD:

So I’m driving home from work to pick up Sue to take to her pre-induction testing-

Me: ’so- I hope the tests today aren’t too unpleasant…’
Her: ‘yeah- it won’t be anything compared to tomorrow, though- I get poked with a LOT of NEEDLES tomorrow morning! Eeee!’
Me: ‘… Erm… and don’t forget that whole LABOR thing too, now…’
Her (small voice): ‘I don’t LIKE needles.’
Me: *laughs*

Isn’t that just awesome?!?

This is way cool!  The Lullabub.

A robot that could rock your baby to sleep in his crib. And this isn’t a Will Smith movie. The Lullabub has four modules that are placed under each leg of your child’s crib. Each module produces a soft rocking motion—like the suspension of a car—with four settings and an automatic timer to shut it off after the child drifts off. Look for it sometime before the end of the year.

How neat is that?

I sure like the looks of this stroller!

Wow, this thing is very cool-

Every parent has an underlying fear of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), so enter the Respisense Buzz by Pretoria IT engineer Hans Pietersen. Looks like a tube of dental floss but can really protect babies by "triggering a cellphone vibrator motor inside their nappies when sensors detect that breathing has stopped for 15 seconds." It also has a built-in breathing stimulator that will wake the baby to begin its breathing before the alarm is sounded.
