I love the bella band. Preggo jeans are so expensive it would be great to have this.

I also love the swaddler from peanut shell. Way better than using a blanket!

Suanne Giddings

The Bellybandit is just an awesome concept! The diaper clutches from the peanut shell are such a wonderful idea. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!

Rosanne

I likethe ruched tank at Ingrid & Isabel, the Park Aveue nursing cover at Peanut Shell, the Belly bandit couture in black from the Belly Bandit and the C-Panty TummyCut Incision Care (hopefully wont' need that) from the CPanty shop

sarah b

the belly bandit could be a real life saver! and it looks so soft!
i have had a lot of problems viewing the Ingrid & Isabel’s site...but it sounds like they have some nice stuff.

carol

I looked at Ingrid & Isabel’s and I liked the Belly Leggings, the Everyday Pant and Cami. The only thing is I would love to see some light jackets to go over this clothing or some tops with sleeves as I always wear sleeves. I also like the list of favorite sites they have on thier site. Maybe some fancier graphics would add more appeal, but otherwise, very nice!
I looked at PeanutShell-love the graphics and the prints are really cute!
The Bellybandit site could be designed with a better look and maybe better colors-a bit washed out. But I liked their products and the Zebra band is adorable!

esther

Ingrid & Isabel~~I like the fact that the website had videos to learn more about there products. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't figure out how to order online. If I like a product, I want to order it then...not go looking at other sites to purchase...but I love the products that were offered.

C-Panty~~I really like their website. Their main page has everything I want to know (what the product is, easy access FAQ, testimonials, and easy order access). I wish I had a pair of these panties when I had my first child.

heather

The Peanut Shell-I really liked the products this company sells. I also like the fact that the "products are Formaldehyde-free, making them safe for baby and the environment!"(taken from their website). With so many recalls of various products now adays, it is nice to know that you are purchasing something safe.

BellyBandit-The BellyBandit sounds like a dream for anyone who is trying to get back to halfway prepregnancy size. I like that is lists all the things it helps with.

Great contest.

amy h

www.ingridandisabel.com: I love the BellaBand! I have one and the material is so soft. There website is very informative with showing the uses of the BellaBand.

www.thepeanutshell.com : There site seemed to fit (design and layout) the products they were selling. I liked how the site showed the products being used in real life.

I would love to win this contest! Everything seems so wonderful! Thank you so much! :)

Jennifer

Ingrid and Isabel give great photos of people wearing their everyday essentials that really gives you the right idea of what they would look like on!
The Peanut Shells gives great instruction about how to use their slings and also how they were made. 2 very important issues to me!

Keitha

The diaper clutches from the peanut shell are such a wonderful idea, like everything else they carry. I like that the bella bands can be used through all stages of pregnancy and post partum!

Jennifer Brown

Ah, you always see the belly support bands while pregnant, but the belly bandit- ingenious! They need more modern fabric designs....polka dots and the like.

Kathleen Lyster

I would love to use every single one of these products. Especially since I am having a C-Section in June! I wish I had the C Panty & the Belly Band it after my last pregnancy! Plus, I am even wearing a Bella band right now!

Jennifer W

The Serendipity Line of Peanut Shell has the cutest hospital bag! Called the "Weekend in Paris "It's Time" Hospital Bag" I would use this all the time!

And Ingrid & Isabelle's Everywhere pant is exactly what I've been looking for since my Lululemon pants tore on one of the seams. I swear it was my old washing machine, not my expanding body due to pregnancy. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Heather

I have heard rave reviews for the Bella Band at Ingride and isabel. And I just LOVE the idea of bring your own hospital gowns from Peanut Shell. The Cherry Blossom Designer Hospital Gown is my favorite!

Jen

Blogged the giveaway today! http://tiedyedivadesigns.blogspot.com/

Lynn

I love the entire collection on Ingrid and Isabel. I couldn't tell how you would order anything though.

Nichole

I love the entire collection on Ingrid and Isabel. The website makes it hard to order anything. I couldn't tell how you would order. They have great ideas though and would love one of each. I wish they had a few more color choices but do offer the basics, which every pregnant woman needs

Lynn

I love everything on the peanutshell.com. They have such wonderful patterns and great ideas! Their website is easy to navigate and nice descriptions of all their products. I would love to have one of their hospital gowns.

Nichole

I wish the cami's came in a few more colors, even though they do have the good basic colors. Also Ingrid and Isabel's site is a little confusing. I couldn't tell how you would order anything.

Jill Gin

I checked out all the links and LOVED each and every one of them. I'm newly pregnant with my first baby and am pleasantly surprised when I see sites like this that feed my clothes addiction (even as my belly grows)!!!

I am so impressed with the Ingrid & Isabel collection. I love how I will be able to be fashionable throughout my pregnancy...not to mention COMFORTABLE!!! Speaking of fashionable...how AWESOME are the hospital gowns at Peanut Shell?!?!?! The slings and nursing covers are really killer for my post-baby time!

I also enjoyed learning about the Belly Bandit. I have to admit...I am nervous about what'll happen to my body AFTER baby comes, and this seems like a great product to help me through.

Thanks for all the links. I've bookmarked 'em all :)

israel y

i cannot remember if i made these comments already but on the ingrid & isabel website - i really like the bellaband, it is a great product for anyone pregnant! also, on the peanut shell website, my favorite sling is the Time for Tea Baby Sling, very elegant! thanks for this really great giveaway

Alicia

I love the choices of patterns at the Peanut Shell. I love that these websites are simple and easy to navigate. No extra frills, just get me where I need to go.

shari

I love how comfy the Ingrid and Isabel everywear pant looks--I love pants that are so versatile--dress up or dress down, yet comfort is the main priority.

For Peanut Shell, it would be cool to see a matching "hospital bag" to go with those pretty hospital gowns!

Heather M

This time Around I definitely Will need that belly band It! With my daughter 21 months ago I never even needed Maternity Pants. I wore my regular’s the whole way through, and I delivered her at 39 weeks! This time around with my 2nd daughter I’m already 22 weeks and Am outgrowing my pants!! Oh please help me! and from Ingrid and Isabel I like the Ruched Tank! Thanks

Jen

One piece of constructive criticism for Ingrid & Isabel - the Bella Band page suggests wearing it at 25 weeks for maternity pants that are too loose? That seems very unusual to me, for myself and for most people I know, maternity clothes go on at around 12 weeks and by week 25 they are in no way loose! I adore the trendy fabrics at Peanut Shell - good riddance to the old style of baby items featuring teddy bears wearing bows!

Marie Fink

I love the Ruched tanks on Ingrid & Isabel. I also thought the nursing cover from the peanut shell was a great useful item! Great sites! m04taes(at)verizon(dot)net

Rachel Robertson

I love the Peanut Shell gowns. I also love that Ingrid and Isabel understand pregnant women so well. I love being pregnant but admit that sometimes I feel as if I am lost somewhere here in my body and clothes.These clothes have been so well thought out and I love the way they would never stretch on you, even when you stretch out yourself! Thank you so very, very much for showing me this site. It really made my day!

Donna M. Clark

From C-Panty website, I like that you can order them online, because I found out you cannot buy them in any stores in my state, Maine. From Peanut Shell, who ever knew that there could actually be attractive looking hospital gowns. already told my hubby that he was getting me one of these for the birth of our next baby in April. Thank you for having this great giveaway.

Marcia S

I'm hoping to win these maternity clothes for my daughter-in-law who is expecting my first grandchild. I would like the Sunday Drive Nursing Cover from the Peanut Shell, to encourage her to nurse the baby. The BellaBand from Ingrid & Isabel looks like it would be used in so many ways.

Aura

The C-Panty TummyCut Incision Care looks great but the site says nothing about how to wash it. I do hope it's machine wash and dry because with a newborn no one has time to hand wash and hang dry

Kaycee

Wow, what a giveaway! I could use ALL of these!! I love the Walk in the Park Baby Sling from the Peanut Shell and I could really use the Belly Bandit (Bamboo in Black) after this baby! Thanks so much for the chance!

kayceewilliams at gmail dot com

Cindy M

I like the Belly Bandit website i orderd my band and cant wait to recive it
i love the pants and just might have to get them aswell
i wish all this was available my las pregnancy

Mel S.

U love that with Peanut Shell, you can buy gift certificates online. I am surrounded by pregnant family and friends and it's soo nice to have that option. Just a question about the hospital gowns--how "breastfeeding friendly" are they? Especially for a first time mom with no experience b-feeding, it's essential to have easy access to the food source :0)!!!
C. Panty website is great, love that you included a recovery section. Maybe a testimonials section would be helpful? (unless I just missed it)

Sandy Anderson

The Peanut Sell site is great. I especially all the gowns. What a difference wearing one of those would make, they are just gorgeous. Very nice variet. And the BellaBand on the Ingrid & Isabel site, what a wonderful invention! Actually their entire catalog is great.

carol

I looked at Ingrid & Isabel’s and I liked the Belly Leggings, the Everyday Pant and Cami. The only thing is I would love to see some light jackets to go over this clothing or some tops with sleeves as I always wear sleeves. I also like the list of favorite sites they have on thier site. Maybe some fancier graphics would add more appeal, but otherwise, very nice!
I looked at PeanutShell-love the graphics and the prints are really cute!
The Bellybandit site could be designed with a better look and maybe better colors-a bit washed out. But I liked their products and the Zebra band is adorable!
Great and useful giveaways!

Anne

I will definitely be needing the Belly Bandit, and the Ingrid and Isabel Bella Band is such a great idea!!!

Alicia

I was thinking it would be wonderful to have a pair of gauchos from Ingrid and Isabel for those pregnant during the summer heat. I love their clothes!

ChristieC

Love the C-panties - what a great idea. I wished I would have know about these a year ago when I had a c-section.

Peanut shell gowns are beautiful.

Kim

I loved the clothes available at Ingrid & Isabel! So cute and I'm going to need more clothes since I'm expecting my 2nd baby in October! Great giveaway!

David Clark

The Peanut Shell uses nice fabrics and Ingrid and Isabel seems to know what pregnant women need.

Thanks for the contest.
superdavefive(at)yahoo(dot)com

Jen

Ingrid & Isabel - I like the idea of wearing the Bella Band postpartum - wearing maternity clothes when you are no longer pregnant is not fun! Last time I was pregnant was 6 years ago, there were no belly bands! Belly Bandit - The actual photo of a Belly Bandit wearer on their blog from June 2008 is inspirational!

shari

I would love to see Peanut Shell carry diaper bags! Their diaper clutches look great, but sometimes I need to carry the big bag :)

As for the Belly Bandit--this looks like such a great product--the only thing I can think to improve upon it is to somehow make it machine washable! Right after my baby was born, I didn't really have time to hand wash anything.

israel y

at the peanut shell website, my new favorite is the Aqua Bloom Designer Swaddle Blanket - very cute! and on the ingrid & isabel site, i might just need to buy all "4 must-haves" they sell - all 4 are definetly essentials!

Melissa

I like that Ingrid and Isabel carries the Bella Band in so many awesome colors! I also like that Peanut Shell gives detailed instructions on how to do a bunch of different carries with their sling.

Melanie B

have your button on my blog

Melanie B

Ingrid & Isabel-they have a simple, unencumbered site which is good and great photos of their products. I would love to try the ruched tank!

The peanut shell-has a modern, clean look to their online store. I would love to try one of their slings or nursing covers. great fabrics!

Bellybandit-catchy name, memorable. would like to try from the claims listed on the site. I swelled pretty badly with my first baby so I would like some help next time around

Cpanty.com-another clean and simple site. Lets the product speak. HOW awesome are these? I had a C section with my first and will have one again with the next baby. I wish I had heard of these!

Keitha

I would like to have a nursing cover from the peanut shell. These could be of great use.

The belly bandits are great all around, but releasing the pressure on my back is one of the best features for me.

Jennifer

I like how on the Cpanty site they give a detailed picture of each feature of the product. The peanut shell is great because it has a ton of products that are just a click away from ordering.

Jennifer W

I have had my eye on the peanut Shell sling since before I got pregnant. I was reading that 'It is extremely difficult to determine if the sling will fit correctly until after the baby is born.' They accept returns on slings ordered though with original packaging if the size is incorrect after pregnancy.

And I still want some of those c-panty's. Even if I don't need a c-section, for those ultra bloated post-pregnancy days...why not?

Jamie R

I love the Gowns from peanut shell. Beats the hospital gown any day. I keep saying I am going to try a belly band!

Jennifer

The C-panty is a wonderful idea it seems like it would make everyday life after a C section a little more comfortable!

I absolutely LOVE the Peanut Shell site! The hospital gowns are beautiful something I am going to recommend to all my pregnant friends and who knows it might even be my new "thing" to give at showers. You can count me in on having one with our next baby. They are so cute and stylish for all those hospital visitors. What a wonderful idea!!!

israel y

I really like the hospital gowns on the peanutshell website. they are perfect! and thanks for this giveaway

Sandy Anderson

I really loved the Peanut Sell site - especially the variety of gowns. What a difference wearing one of those would make when in the hospital, they are just gorgeous. And the BellaBand on the Ingrid & Isabel site, what a wonderful invention! Actually their entire catalog is great.

Alicia

I love the everywear pant. There are so many stages of pregnancy that you search for something comfy. These look like they fit the bill.

Mel S.

C Panty is truly innovative and their website provided so much information, many of my questions were answered. Anything beats those mesh numbers you get from the hospital!!! I do hope I never need a C Section but it's great knowing this product is out there.

I love the fab Peanut Shell nursing wraps. I did notice they had some great sale prices on a number of items. Hope they keep that up! And like that you can buy online, super convenient, esp. with a baby it's hard to get out somedays!

Amanda U.

I love the Weekend in Paris Nursing Cover, because it's something that I'll need and the print is fun and colorful!

I love that the Belly Bandit helps you lose inches faster and reduces pressure on your back!

shari

I would love to see Ingrid and Isabel add some long sleeved top to their line (maybe because it's winter and I'm always cold!)

At Peanut Shell, I would love it if they expanded their line to include stroller blankets in their fab prints!

Jen

Blogged this fabulous giveaway here: http://www.tiedyedivadesigns.blogspot.com/

Jen

Love the boot cut flare to the Ingrid & Isabel everywear pant - comfy as leggings without the dorky pegged ankle that most leggings have! The C-panty looks like a lifesaver - I have never had a C-section but I know how difficult recovery from even a regular natural labor can be and every bit of comfort and healing helps at a time you have a lot of other things going on and don't have a lot of time to take care of yourself!

Melissa

I like that the Belly Bandit website has a blog. I like that the C-panty website gives lots of detailed information about recovery after C-section.

Jen

I love that Ingrid & Isabel have tested their fabrics to be sure they hold up in the wash - nothing worse than elastic type items that lose their stretch! I also appreciate the Peanut Shell product info page that shows how the sling is constructed - it shows details you don't get from the sling product pages.

Sandy Anderson

I really loved the Peanut Sell site - especially all the gowns. What a difference wearing one of those would make, they are just gorgeous. And the BellaBand on the Ingrid & Isabel site, what a wonderful invention! Actually their entire catalog is great.

Jennifer

The peanut shell has great nursing covers. I wish I would've had these when I was nursing my little girl. I could've used a belly bandit with all of my previous kids, but I didn't know they existed until now! They are a wonderful and very SMART creation! Everyone could use a little help from the Belly bandit!

Keitha

The swaddle blankets from The Peanut shell and the ruched tank from Ingrid and isabel

CAROLYN

I love the Belly Bandit because it helps get everything back in place after birth and helps improve posture and at the Ingrid and Isabel sight I like that the Bella Band hold ones pants up and make them more comfortable.

Mel S.

I love the statement Peanut Shell makes with their nursing wraps "Nursing when you want, where you want." they are really with the times and it shows not only in their hip products and fabrics but in their philosophies! Hoping the nursing wraps include a pocket on the inside for breast pads (other brands include this feature and it's fabulous)

Belly Bandit is awesome, I have never heard of it. It is neat how they state "it is all worth it" having a baby--loose belly and all. I would try this product.

Stephanie

I love the belly bandit. I wish I had this after my last pregnancy, would have helped a lot.

The peanutshell has the prettiest fabrics and prints!!! I really like them a lot.

israel y

on the Ingrid and isabel website, i really like the ruched tank and also the everywear pants - both great products!

shari

I love how you the Belly Bandit helps you to lose inches faster! I was definately self conscious with my belly after giving birth, and I know the second one will probably take longer to lose the inches!

As for Peanut Shell--I love how they include video instructions with how to wear their sling! The videos really demonstrate how easy it is to use!

Melissa S.

I was most impressed with the Peanut Shell website. They really drive home the point that hip mamas love babywearing and breastfeeding!
I have never owned a Bella Band but am noticing on their sizing scale that I am right in between sizes (8-10). I guess with added pounds of pregnancy I would size up!

Jennifer W

Yesterday, at almost 5 months pregnant, I had to unbutton my low-rise jeans to wear them with a long camisole to try to hold in my tummy and cover the top of my jeans. I just visited Ingrid & Isabel and realized I really should get a bella band and then I saw the super-long strecthy, fade and pill-resistant cami! ...thanks for showing me this website!!...I'm heading back there now...

Between these essentials and the c-panty, I'll be all set!

Melissa

I like that the Peanut Shell uses such pretty fabrics. I like that Ingrid and Isabel pays attention to what women need in all stages of pregnancy, as well as postpartum.

Aura

The Peanut Shell site is quite easy to navigate. I really like the prints of their nursing covers and I wish they had more prints of their hospital gowns. The hospital gowns are really nice, they cover alot more than the horrible blue ones the hospital gives out. It would be convenient if hospital gift shops carried the gowns, well actually all the items featured, they're alot more practical than all the stupid teddy bears I got.

Michelle

How adorable are the peanut shell gowns. Finally something cute to wear! I LOVE their slings. The Ruched Tank from Ingrid & Isabel looks comfy and long enough to cover up the belly!

Sandy Anderson

I just loved the Peanut Sell site - especially all the gowns. What a difference wearing one of those would make, they are just gorgeous. And the BellaBand on the Ingrid & Isabel site, what a wonderful invention! Actually their entire catalog is great.

Keitha

The peanut shell: I think the peanut shell has a great selection of awesome products along with awesome designs in the products as well.

The Belly Bandit: I think its great how they list the history behind belly binding and how different cultures have different traditions to this process. Interesting

Jennifer

I think that it is great that Ingrid & Isabel's Bellaband and belly leggings were named among Pregnancy's 120 best products! That says a lot!

I love how The Peanut Shells mission is to to make sure the following years, months, weeks, hours and minutes, that you share with your child, will be the most exhilarating, rewarding, and yes, stylish moments, ever.
Very good mission!

Melissa S.

Bella Band website was helpful since I have only ever seen/heard of the bands. I didn't know about their pants and tanks.

Belly Bandit--Love the ecofriendly twist!!!

Mel S.

Bella Band---Love the Lace bottomed band. So clever!

Peanut Shell site---The hospital gowns are so sweet and a great shower gift. How about offering a matching layette/outfit for baby?!

melissa

I really like the slings from The Peanut Shell! they look comfortable and i love all the colors/designs they come in.

the Belly Bandit is a great product! anything that can make me lose inches faster and improve my posture is for me.

Alicia

I have not used a sling with past babies, but would love to give it a go this time around. I love the patterns they have on peanut shell. As if carrying a baby around doesn't make you look fabulous already...

Jen

Blogged the giveaway here: http://tiedyedivadesigns.blogspot.com/

Jen

I love that the peanut shell sling has a pocket - now someone is thinking! The Belly Bandit looks like a great product I hadn't heard of before, their website is very informational and gives great tips for purchasing the correct size (even though it is depressing to see 'you will likely be the same size post pregnancy as you were at 8 months!)

israel y

I really like the Peanut Shell Baby Carrier Sling, it looks very pretty and comfy. Also, I really love the belly bandit.

Tanya Anna Wilson

I love the bella band from Ingrid & Isabella! Its a concept thats long overdue, and perfect to use before and after baby is born. I also really like the selection of pretty Hospital Gowns at Peanut Shell. I'm a nurse at a local hospital and forwaded the link to my girlfriend who is a nurse manager on the OB floor.Thanks for hosting this great giveaway!

shari

I love the "everyday" essentials at Ingrid and Isabel because they come in basic colors--but I would also love to see some fun prints.

I love the concept of the hospital gown at Peanut Shell--I know I would have loved to have slipped into on of these for all those photo ops! I know a preggo friend who would love this!

Sharon

I love the peanut shell (weekend in Paris) and the c-panty looks great. I wish I had had it last time.

Melissa

I love the C-panty website, with the little cartoons and speech bubbles that pop up.

I like that Belly Bandit gives very detailed sizing information.

Keri F

These would be great for my little sister who is finally making me an aunt for the first time! I loved everything and wished I'd had somewhere like these places to shop when I was pregnant.

Rebecca

My favorite item is the bellaband from Ingrid & Isabel - I have to get some of those as I get bigger and for nursing after - what an amazing invention! I also LOVED the designer swaddle blankets from Peanut Shell - especially in the Amy Butler prints - just beautiful and they would come in so handy, my babies love to be swaddled!

TopLineCreations

I loved the Everywear pant from Ingrid & Isabel - they look as comfortable as leggings but the bootcut makes them get away as pants, love that! I also loved all the beautiful and trendy fabric choices at Peanut Shell for their baby slings and nursing covers.

Becca

If I get a c-section, than I would love to have the c-panty to make the incision less painful and help with the healing - what a great product!! And the belly bandit would be great for slimming my mid-section post-baby to give me some post-baby confidence and avoid getting asked by strangers if I'm pregnant or not.

Our Busy Little Girls

I loved the ruched tanks from Ingrid & Isabel - those are exactly what I've been looking for! And the Belly Bandit really impressed me - something to reduce bloating in pregnancy - I need that!

Aura

The Bella Band is amazing, I can still use them now even though my twins are a year old. Maybe if I would have used the belly bandit I wouldn't have that problem. One thing about Ingrid and Isabel's site- it's a little confusing to navigate and see the different colors and I wish you could purchase straight from the site

israel y

on the ingrid and isabel website, i really like the Ruched Tank. and on the peanut shell website, i really like the Sunday Drive Baby Sling, thanks for this great giveaway!

Lynn

If the belly bandit can combat all it says then I am in. The website had very great details and a good variety. To be honest, I was expecting the price to be higher than it was.

I love the nursing covers on thepeanutshell.com. They have such cute patterns. I also really liked the swaddle blankets. Again, I like the patterns. They need more blue though.

Bethany

Thanks for the giveaway! Baby two is due in August, and this time around I would love the Sunday Drive Nursing Cover!! So cute! I like the whole Ingrid & Isabel's collection, but I have to say the cami is my favorite! Thanks again!

Janice Whitaker

I like those peanut shell gowns!

Melissa Butler

From Peanut Shell I adore the Walk in the Park Baby Sling.. Would be great because I could see me husband using this design as well. From Ingrid and Isabel I would love the Everyday pants. I would probably have a couple pairs and wear them everyday with skirts, dresses, tops, etc. I love the Retro nude from Belly Bandit.

Mel S.

Visited Bella Band site....love love love their products. Wish you could buy online!
Also visited Peanut Shell....Everything is so stinkin cute!!! Love the baby slings. I am ordering retro pink for my sister in law who is due in June!!

Sandy Anderson

I just loved the Peanut Sell site - especially all the gowns. What a difference wearing one of those would make, they are just gorgeous. And the BellaBand on the Ingrid & Isabel site, what a wonderful invention! Actually their entire catalog is great.

I love love love Ingrid and Isabel's everywear pants. I wish they came in more colors! At Peanut Shell I really like the Time for Tea Nursing Cover.

Nichole

I like the tanks on Ingrid & Isabel. I just wish they had a few more color options for the ruched tank. The Everywear pant looks so comfortable. I think I would live in them if I had a pair.

Louis Huf

my faves are Belly Leggings from Ingrid & Isabel and Park Avenue Stroll Baby Sling from The PeanutShell

Lisa

I love the everyday pants from ngrid and Isabelle and the Walk in the Park Baby Sling from peanut shell. Thanks.angel_2417@yahoo.com

Sarah - Mother

There’s no better way to carry your baby then close to the warmth and comfort of your chest. The Peanut Shell Baby Carrier Sling is a hip and comfortable way to do just that!

Once your baby arrives, your tummy could use a bit of support to return to its former glory. The Belly Bandit post-pregnancy tummy wrap can help!

michelle m

the c-panty is a great idea. i will be scheduled for a c-section and i had not thought about this. i also like the belly banit. i know i will need this.

Sarah

I love the belly bandit. Such a great idea. I was looking at a similar product, and appreciate the info on another type out there that I think I actually like better!
And the Bella Band is such a great idea! Looking at maternity clothes, I hate to spend a ton of money on pants I won't get a lot of wear out of, so anything to extend my current wardrobe is fabulous!!!

Kelly

I love the hospital gowns at peanutshell and the belly band at ingird and isabella is so smart!!!

Alicia

I bought a BellaBand during my last pregnancy. It was a lifesaver. I would love to have it in another color...or two. I did find that it runs a little big. I bought the size I usually wear and found it to be a little large during the first trimester.

Tiffany

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the C-Panty idea. I had a C-section last time and was stuck in mesh panties or waist high bloomers forEVER so they wouldn't rub my incision. I'm gearing up for my second C-section in June and REALLY dreading the underwear issue already. It's been tough enough to find maternity panties that don't sit right on my scar...so I imagine it'll be worse after a second C-section. I would LOVE to try these panties.

I also love the Peanut Shell hospital gowns. It's so hard to feel pretty in an ugly flimsy hospital issued gown. I think if I had a pretty gown to wear that it would boost my spirits, which is always a good thing after giving birth!!!

shari

I would have loved a Belly Bandit to help minimize stretch marks! I would love one of these for my future pregnancy. I haven't heard of c-panty before. I know one soon-to-be-mama with an upcoming scheduled c-section due to some complications she is having--I will definately tell her about this product! I'm sure she will appreciate it for the comfort and swelling.

I'd love the Ruched Tank at Ingrid & Isabel. I love that it is stylish and extra long! All of their products are very practical and would go with just about everything!

I love the hospital gowns at Peanut Shall, especially the Sweet Pea Designer Hospital Gown. Cute and practical!

Keitha

At Ingrid and Isabel, I love the versatility of the everyday pants. It's nice to have pants that you can wear above the belly or below and still be comfortable.

At C-panty's site, it's neat how they have the testomonials and it will be even better when they have the before and after photos posted. I saw that they were coming soon.

Jennifer

I love how the Belly bandit helps to lose inches fast and minimizes stretchmarks! Those are two huge issues the the baby having process. The C-panty's are a wonderful creation! Regular panty companies don't think of C-section or any stomach surgeries in mind when making panty's. These are perfect for the C-section victim!

Melissa

The Peanut Shell gowns come in such beautiful fabrics! And I love that Ingrid and Isabel has branches out from the Bella Band (which saved my life in my last pregnancy).

At ingrid & Isabel I would love to see some bright color options. I know it is important to have basics, but I am a huge fan of color...especially in summer and spring.

Belly Bandit: I know someone who had a bellybandit and she had very little problems with stretch marks and looked noticably better after 6 weeks post partum in the tummy area then any of my other friends did at that time. I would love to try one of these..they looked very well planned and researched.

I wish I had the C Panty after my C-section. They seem much more comfortable than normal panties and I like that they have compression which is what my OB told me to wear. Actually she recommended a belly binder like the Belly Bandit to help my uterus contract after the twins. I wish I would have listened and bought one.

I LOVE the hospital gowns from Peanut Shel

Andrea

I really like the cherry blossom hospital gown from peanut shell. They have a lot of nice products in great fabrics.

I like the everywhere pant from ingrid and isabel. Those type of pants are so comfortable when you're pregnant. I wish they were available for purchase online.

I LOVE the hospital gowns from Peanut Shell. How fantastic are those? Last time I was in labor I had to walk the halls for a couple hours and I would have loved to show some style like that.
I also love the Ingrid & Isabel line. All of their products are functional, useful and yet stylish. Their site is simple and easy to navigate.

Shay

Love the bella band at ingrid & isabella I could have used something like this before and after my pregnancy. Also love the hospital gowns from Peanut Shell! Awesome!

Lori Haynes

The Everywear Pants by Ingrid and Isabelle look like the PERFECT pair of maternity pants! I would wear those every day if I were pregnant!!!

The Peanut Shell gowns are so cute. I love all of the prints, especially the Cherry Blossom print. I would love one of those for next time in the hospital! Such great products.

I live in my Ingrid & Isabel Bella Bands and feel so good about myself because I'm in regular jeans and not in dowdy maternity pants, even at 6+ months pregnant. I love the idea of wearing them postpartum for nursing cover up of the belly bulge, too. The Peanut Shell gowns are gorgeous - you will have the photos of your delivery day forever, why not look amazing in them!

Leane

I think the C-panty is a really great thing to have......if you just a c-sec. babe......I wish I had these a couple years ago.....
Ingrid & Isabel....the belly band is wonderful.....I need one for Thanksgiving or other holiday meals, even when I am not pregnant! ;) And the ruched tank is sooo flattering.
BUT, the Peanut Shell 'DESIGNER HOSPITAL GOWN' is something every preggo woman should receive as a shower gift.
Anything in the giveaway that I can't use, I can give to my BF.
OUTSTANDING GIVEAWAY!!!

Ingrid & Isabel site - I love essentials collection. My favorite is the Everywear Pant. The pictures showing how to wear them throughout the pregnancy is nice. A closeup of the waist-band and/or a zoom feature on the pictures would add a lot. I would rather see that than a video (opens in a new window, wait to load, watched whole thing and still didn't get any closeups of the clothes!)

Peanut Shell - Love, love, love their fabrics. Gorgeous closeups of the patterns so you really see what you are getting! I used slings with both my kids and they are so good for baby and mom. One suggestion is to move "Product Info" so that it is under the Slings menu on the left. There is a ton of great information on that page but the name doesn't tell you it's just about slings.

Keitha

I think a belly bandit would be great for me because I have trouble with my back and posture and I think this would help. I also plan to breast feed so that's a plus too! From the Peanut Shell, I also like the Park Avenue Stroll nursing cover. Another great product for me while nursing

Melissa

I really like the concept behind the C-panty. I have heard of using silicone to reduce scars elsewhere, so it makes perfect sense to use it for C-section scars.

I really like how the Belly Bandit website explains so much about the history of postpartum belly binding.

carol

I looked at Ingrid & Isabel’s and I liked the Belly Leggings, the Everyday Pant and Cami. The only thing is I would love to see some light jackets to go over this clothing or some tops with sleeves as I always wear sleeves. I also like the list of favorite sites they have on thier site. Maybe some fancier graphics would add more appeal, but otherwise, very nice!
I looked at PeanutShell-love the graphics and the prints are really cute!
The Bellybandit site could be designed with a better look and maybe better colors-a bit washed out. But I liked their products and the Zebra band is adorable!
Great and useful giveaways!

Krista

Okay, I have your button on my blog as well! Do we get extra daily entries for that or only for commenting about the sites?

Krista

The C-panty is an interesting idea. Having not had one and hoping not to... I hope I never need this! But I like the idea of less scar tissue formation from the increased moisture in that area. Also, machine washable means they will actually get used...

Also? LOVE the maternity gowns from Peanut Shell! I brought my own sleep shirt when my son was born, but these are gorgeous! And much more practical for nursing, etc! My favorite is the Snap Dragon!

Christine Blaylock

I visited The Peanut Shell website, who knew you could make hospital gowns so cute, my favorite was the Water Lily Maternity Hospital Gown. I also visited Ingrid and Isabel, and love the different styles of belly bands.

Jennifer

I like the everyday cami from ingrid and isabel! All of their clothes look so comfortable!
I love slings and the Champagne Brunch sling from Peanut Shell is gorgeous! Babywearing is great!!

Vickie Couturier

My daughter is pregnant an she would love the hospital gowns,they are great,an she doesnt have a sling yet either,I had never heard of a c-panty,wow,why didnt they have these things when I had my babies!Those nursing covers are great too,she doesnt have nothing yet,everything is new an inventive at those sites

Megan C.

I used a peanut shell sling with my little one and loved it. I didn't know they had other products available such as the hospital gowns...very cute...until I visited their site. The C-panty's are an interesting idea. One I've never heard of before. The I & I collection and Belly bandits also look swell. I've love to try them all!

Amanda

I came to your site from MckMama's blog (mycharmingkids.net). I've been reading and researching slings (not pregnant right now, but making sure I'm informed for the future!) & the sling and nursing cover from The Peanut Shell are awesome! I've heard lots about the Bella Band and from looking at their site, I will definitely be buying the band & tanks for sure when I'm pregnant.

Megan

Oh my gosh! I have been looking for hospital sleepwear and up to this point wanted nothing to do with gowns, but the ones over at Peanut Shell are beautiful! And I didn't even know they made anything like the c-panties, but I'm thinking that would feel pretty darn good. I didn't have anything like that for the first go-'round. If I won this I would probably pee on myself (especially if I sneezed or laughed after finding out I'd won).

Becca

I love the feminine prints on the peanut shell products! And I definitely want to try the everyday cami from Ingrid & Isabel - it actually looks long enough to cover a full term belly!

Adina

The belly bandit sounds great!!

sarah b

i wish i knew cpanty existed a year ago! it really would have come in handy when my son was born... but i will be sure to get some for our second baby. and those hospital gowns are so much nicer then the real ones they give you. i would be one stylin mama with any of this swag!

Carrie

I'm getting ready to have another baby in a few months and love, love, love the hospital gowns from peanut shell! I would look so much better in pictures if I had one of those on! I love their assortment of fabrics, so pretty! I also love the Ingrid and Isabel line, I'm feeling so lumpy and frumpy lately, and I know I would look much cuter in their stuff!

Naomi

I love the fleece peanut shells and I wish I'd had the Belly Bandit for my first two post-partum experiences...

Lisa C.

I love the Belly Bandit, I plan on getting one to help me lose all the baby weight I gained before I try having another baby!

Richelle F

The belly bandit sounds cool. That would be so helpful!

I love the Time for Tea Nursing Cover. So pretty!

Carrie Lim

I love the c-panty. I wish I had know of them with the first child and will definitely be buying some for the next. Underwear was a big issue for me after having a c-section.

The hospital gown is nice, I think it would be nice if they designed it a little tighter on top so that you wouldn't have to wear a sleeping bra with it. I found that with blistered nipples it hurt to have something rubbing against them. And I needed to wear pads so I didn't have to wear a bra that would have been great.

Claire

I love the Bella Band from Isabel and Ingrid - Super useful, and it really does just look like you are layering tees.

And after having already had one c-section, the C-panty seems like a brilliant idea - I would LOVE to reduce irritation and that weird little bulge! And they present the info on their website in a straightforward manner - no beating around the bush.

Jen

www.ingridandisabel.com, everyone knows the bella band, but I like how the site showcases the other essential products. Would love to see closer detail on the pants.

www.thepeanutshell.com, I like the feel of the site design and the adorable gown paterns. I love how they have a close up of some of the gown patterns.

www.bellybandit.com, another nice site. I especially like the history section here to explain the philosophies and research behind the process of belly binding.

www.cpanty.com, This looks like a great product. If I do end up having to have a c-section I think this is a must have for comfort and recovery.

Keep sharing these great products with us!

Oops sorry on my previous comment. My computer was acting up so I accidently posted the comment twice.

Nichole

I looked at all the sites and loved all of them. I am very interseted in the C-panty's. My first baby was a c-section and this 2nd will be as well. I know that pressure on the scar was so crucial for me and I love the fact that these offer all the needs that a c-section mommy needs.

I loved the hospital gowns on the peanutshell.com. They have so many nice prints and look like a dress rather than a grandma gown. I lived in my robe in the hospital the 1st 2 days after delivery because of pain with my c-section scar. I wouldn't have a problem living in these gowns. Plus I like the easy access for breastfeeding.

Ok, so I think one of my favorite things though is the bellaband. This is such a great idea. I love that it can be used through the whole pregnancy and even after pregnancy. I know my biggest complaint with maternity pants is that they always slip down. This is such a great solution. Plus it would be nice to be able to wear my pre-pregnancy jeans after delivery(nobody has to know i can't button them, right?).

Crista, you do make me sick!! If that belly bandit works like that, then how can you go wrong?

Monika

The everywear pants and ruched tank from Ingrid and isabel are awesome...finally some maternity clothes that i'd love to wear. They look stylish and comfi :)

Wish i heard about the Belly Bandit with my first pregnancy! At least i know now!

Rachel

I wish that I had the belly bandit and c-panties for my previous c-sections. Great products. Can't wait to try.

The Slings from The peanut Shell have beautiful fabrics.

blima

What I love about peanut shell is the variety of products. The slings are really beautiful and makes a quality product.
I went to belly bandit and I like that it wasn't swarming with pictures of models with perfect belly's. The idea that it helps with a mommy's health and llosing pounds is great

Rachel

I had never heard of the belly bandit. What a GREAT way to help me get my tummy back in shape in June after our baby is born!!! The fabric at Peanut Shell is so cute and contemporary! I especially like the design of the nursing covers, those are AWESOME! I love being as fashionable as a mommy can be! I also love the bella band from Ingrid and Isabel. I love its versatility and that it is useful throughout pregnancy and post-partum, making it a good maternity investment!
I have to say this is THE perfect giveaway for someone like me that is expecting in the beginning of June!
Thanks:)

Heather

I have your button up.

Heather

I love the Peanut Shell gowns. The fabric is very pretty and would make any tired mama beautiful for those photos after delivery. I also love the BellaBand and how you can use it throughout your pregnancy and after.

Jen

OMG, Bellybands are my saviors. Thanks to Ingrid & Isabel’s website I recently purchased my first two belly bands and they are absolutely wonderful. I use them everyday and would be lost with out them. Looking forward to purchasing the belly leggings next!

Jen

I visited the peanut shell and the belly bandit. Both websites were easy to use. I didn't get an 'error' page which really bugs me. The descriptions were informative and the pictures were great. I really like a lot of their products and could especially use a belly bandit.

Jacqueline

What a fantastic website! I'm in love with the fashionable slings and hospital gowns. I can't wait to buy my own and what great ideas for gifts too.

Mommie Daze

I'm having a scheduled C-section and the hospital gown from Peanut Shell, the Belly Band and C-Panty's would all be fantastic to have. My fav hospital gown is the Sweat Pea with Lime accent. I like the Belly Bandit Couture in Nude and the C-Panty in Nude. What a fabulous bunch of prizes.

Jennifer W.

I am expecting my second baby in July and will most likely have another c-section. Both the Belly Bandit and C-panty would be perfect for the healing process! The belly bandit promotes healing and reduces swelling and the c-panty is nice looking and practical. Hope I win....the C-Panty is expensive!

Maggie Smith

I really love the Aqua Bloom Swaddler from Peanut Shell. It is so chic and sweet.

I also visited Belly Bandit and I love that the Bandit helps new Mommys to lose weight faster and minimize stretch marks. This would have been so helpful when I had my first baby a year ago!

Laura Miller

OOoooo! I LOVE the slings and hospital gowns from Peanut Shell! I am a sling lovin' momma and love the stylish prints available. And those hospital gowns are drop dead gorgeous! Great site!

Sarah M

I love the ruched tank and bella band from ingrid and isabel, and the bright fun prints on the hospital gowns at the peanut shell are TDF!!!!! Both websites are easily accessible and I love the brightly colored layouts!!!

I love how at Peanut Shell, the prints are fashionable and cute! I also love how they match their slings to their nursing covers. As for the Bella Band, I love how versatile it is--you can wear it on all stages of pregnancy and even after. I would love to have a Bella Band right now as my pre-pregnancy jeans are still a bit too tight!

Amy Bethers

I visited The Peanut Shell website, who knew you could make hospital gowns so cute, my favorite was the Water Lily Maternity Hospital Gown. I also visited Ingrid and Isabel, and love the different styles of belly bands, especially the lace. Thanks

The Champagne brunch sling is so adorable from Peanut Shell. And I have been wanting a BellaBand before I get pregnant again. Showing the bottom of my belly was not cute and I was envious of my friends who had the band...every pregnant woman should have one.

Margie S.

I love that Ingrid and Isabel understand that length in later pregnancy is such a wonderful thing, and to go with that, leggings and pants that actually come up over the belly? Wonderful! I tried a pair of tights that went below my belly, but at eight months it was a joke to even imagine that they would stay up. And I've been using my BellaBand since the beginning, and it's still wonderful, but now for different reasons. Love that.

Peanut Shell's gowns are pretty, which is such a nice thing in the midst of a sea of granny gowns, but to be perfectly honest, the price is high enough that I would never buy one for myself. I wonder if it would be possible for them to have a lower cost gown as well?

Thanks for the chance!

Doreen

I am a very happy subscriber...thought you should know that.

Doreen

Just a note.....to get freshed on rules link that says CLICK HERE is not working for me.

I love Belly Bandit. A great way to get the belly back to normal after the baby comes. They have a contest for that at YummyMummy too.
The Peanut Shell has such beautiful products. Stylish and trendy. I love them.
Thanks for the giveaway.....very nice.

Sherry

thePeanutShell has many things for new parents and baby too.

I like http://www.ingridandisabel.com they are very comfy!

Nancy J

I like the bella band at ingrid & isabella and how it can be used during and after baby is born to extend your wardrobe. I like the Time for Tea nursing cover at Peanut Shell. It is an adorable pattern. Thanks

Trish

I LOVE the hospital gowns from the Peanut Shell. Those are so much cuter than the ones I had to wear in the hospital!

I think the C-Panty is a great idea. I had a c-section myself and it was hard because most panties waistband hit right at the incision mark. Great idea!
