Did any of you snag the Bamboobies deal of a trial pair for a penny plus shipping? Shipping was $3.95, so I looked at it as paying $4 for the pair, rather than getting a “free” pair, but it was still a pretty good deal considering that 2-packs retail for $16.99.

If you clicked this post not knowing what a Lunette cup was, it is a reusable menstrual product, so men (or the extra-squeamish) can back away slowly!
I have not used a Lunette Cup, since I do not have a cycle in early breastfeeding (lucky me!) but I know a lot of you are interested in reusable menstrual products. I do not have a “review,” since I haven’t used it, but I will share some info & give you the chance to win one!
So what is a Lunette Cup? It is a reusable menstrual cup that is made in Finland, with medical grade, latex free silicone. It can be used during the day or overnight, during sports and by women of all ages and sizes. The cup has a lot of advantages including being economical (it will last for years), eco-friendly, safe, discreet and non-drying. Lunette gives great instructions on how to use the cup.
You will need to empty it 2-4 times per day. The cup comes in several colors (just for fun!), and you can use Lunette’s Feelbetter wash or CupWipes to clean your cup.
The Lunette is different than other menstrual cups and has different sizing. The stem is flat, and the inside is smooth, with no areas for bacteria to collect. It is designed to be easy to insert and comfortable to use. There is a wealth of information about the cup and your body on the Lunette website and Lunette blog.

I posted my Lifefactory Glass Beverage Bottle review in February, and I still love them and use them every day. So, I decided to pick up a Lifefactory Glass Baby Bottle. The 4 ounce bottle I chose with a sky blue sleeve, retails for $14.99 (I snagged it for $13.72.) This is definitely not cheap, but I really only need the one (and I’m not sure if he will even take it!) They are also available as a 9 ounce bottle with a $16.99 MSRP (from $14.43 on Amazon.)
The bottles are made of borosilicate glass that is thermal shock resistant and can go from freezer to boiling water without breaking (obviously, it’s still glass, so it could break with extreme temperature change or force.) The silicone sleeve and nipple (comes with a 0-3 month slow-flow) are medicaled grade, latex and plastic-free silicone.
Like the beverage bottles, the baby bottles are dishwasher safe, and you don’t need to remove the sleeve to wash or boil.
When you’re through with bottles, the 4 oz or 9 oz bottles can turn into a water bottle buy purchasing white or colored solid caps. You can also turn them into sippy cups by adding sippy caps.
The bottle feels nice and sturdy, but it wasn’t as heavy as I was expecting. I love that they are glass, and that their “life” will continue even after we’re out of the baby stage, so my $ won’t be wasted if my son refuses a bottle like my other two did!
