My 18 month old twin girls have never been the greatest sleepers but for the past 4 months I have been sleeping on my living room floor with the younger twin just so I can get enough sleep to function. I am willing to try almost anything to get me sleeping in my own bed again.

The Twins have me up a few times a night!!! One never naps and the other takes forever to go to bed .... It's like having a child with INSOMNIA ...... I'd give further details but my brain is fried and exhaustion has taken over

I am a full-time student with a part-time job. My husband is a part-time student with a full-time job. After 2 years of trying to get pregnant, we were blessed to hear we were having a boy (we already has a girl). We thought our lives would be complete but we never anticipated what we have had to deal with since his birth. After a long and arduous pregnancy, I was so excited to finally give birth but soon I realized that the pregnancy was a breeze compared to what we were in for. Our son was born tongue tied and at 2 weeks was failure to thrive, weighing almost 1lb below his birth weight at his 2 week check-up. He had to have tongue surgery at 3 weeks and become colicky soon after. If that wasn't bad enough, I was still working from home, with only 3 weeks remaining of my maternity leave and my DH was already back to work and school. My mother came to help us but ended up having to bring my 10 mo niece for SIX weeks so instead of one cranky baby in the house, there were two.
It will be 3 months since his birth on the 20th, but he has totally hijacked my life. I run to teach only to have to run back home and feed him every 2 hours. My work is not getting done and things feel very hopeless at times. He only sleeps in arms so I have to hold, carry or wear him 24/7 which is aggravating my back problems. At night, he will not sleep unless he is against me, which keeps me awake a lot of the time and makes it impossible to give any attention to anyone but him. But the worst thing is that we have a 9yo daughter who has also had to suffer through this with us and has cried when I cried (a lot). She complains because his crying keeps her from sleeping and makes it difficult for us to give her ANY attention.
We REALLY need to find a way to wind him down and have him sleep alone, even if just for short periods of time. I doubt this will resolve my sleep problems but at least my daughter can sleep restfully, we can find short periods of time to spend with her and I can regain some of my sanity!

I would love to win one of each of these products. I already have a tummy tub and have really enjoyed it. I'd love to give it as a gift to another new mom. I wish I had known about the Woombie when my kids were babies. It looks incredible! We're done the baby phase of our life now but I'm entering this contest on behalf of my good friend who is expecting twins in July. They already have 3 children and with the twin boys they'll have 5 under 5! I'm on the lookout for anything I can get as a gift to make my friend's life easier. If I don't win one, I'll be buying her a Woombie (or two!) for sure!

Am about to have my 2nd baby - while my first was colicky, he was a dream sleeper and I believe it was not only luck, flexible scheduling but also that I swaddled him for the first six weeks and it worked a charm - he felt so safe and wrapped up - therefore products like the woombie I am a great believer in! I would love this product as am fearful I may not be so lucky 2nd time around and may need some extra help! Thanks Holly!

I think a bedtime routine is so wonderful and anything to aide the situation the better. My sister in law is expecting and I think this would help her soo much! Gosh, who wouldn't it- but being this is her second she can use all the help she can get

I had my second child in September. Though during the day he isn't high needs like my first son (almost 3) he does seem to share the same (terrible) sleeping habits(waking every 1-1.5 hours). We need all the help we can get putting him to bed gently, especially with my high needs toddler running around at the same time! We could especially use the woombie since we can no longer use traditional swaddling methods since he can crawl (often waking himself by crawling) and gets right out of them.
I am having such a tough time keeping up with my spirited toddler and a crawling, cruising 6 month old when I am running on almost no sleep. I have literally not slept 8 hours straight in 3 years.

I would love to try these new inventions in soothing a baby! My 6 week old was diagnosed with a protein intolerance with other possible intolerances/allergies. I am doing my best to continue to nurse her and am in the process of food eliminations right now. While she is much better than before her diagnosis, she is still quite fussy while we figure out my diet. We have worn out all our methods to keep her comfortable. We also have a 2 1/2 year old and my husband works full time. I sleep downstairs with my infant so the crying and fussing doesn't keep everybody up. It breaks my heart to see her so uncomfortable and would love to give these great new products a try! Thanks for your time and consideration, Tiffany

I NEED this wonderful package because I am currently 6 months pregnant with my third baby and need all the help I can get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My first child will be three in a few days and my second who has turned out to be the baby from HELL just turned one year last week and now I will be having another in a few months. My husband is a truck driver so he is away for the whole week while I am left here on my own to take care of our children.
Not a day goes by that I don't hate being a parent or want to run away. My second child (the evil one) still wakes every night for a feeding, he eats like a horse and screams like a fire truck. He tests my patience at every level every single hour of the day. There is nothing that makes him happy other than food. He screams from the time he gets up to the time he goes to bed. I hear him crying in my head even when he isn't crying. He will just slightly bump himself and cry like he's lost a limb! I'm sweating now just writting this because I know he is going to wake from his nap soon and I will have to go thru all this again. He will fuss and scream while I try to change his diaper then he'll be ticked off even more because I don't have food stuffed in his face fast enough. I never get a break from them and the b.s never ends.
I can't hold or snuggle him because he hates to be held, he just wants to squirm and scream!
So, as you can see I am not overly excited about the third baby who was obviously unplanned!!! I am busy enough as it is. I am hoping to win this package to help bring a smile to my face and hopefully it will make my new baby as happy as possible because the thought of having another child that makes me want to climb the walls scares the heck out of me! The first 3 months of my sons life I had to sleep on the couch while he slept in his car seat, that was th only way anyone got any sleep in this house. I CAN'T go thru that again. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!
Oh please bring some joy to my crazy life wont you?
Patricia Hill Alliston, On

I actually would like to win this for my nephew. He is 5 weeks old and giving his mom and dad a run for their money. I think this would be a great thing to add to their bucket of tricks. And eventually if I have another babs and he/she is fussy I will re inherit it I pass the info for this website along to moms all the time. It was an amazing help for me when my LO was first born. Thanks for all you do! Jamie

I just had baby number 4 on April 6 th. Before her my last one born was literally 15 months and 29 days before her. I nursed him until he was 9 months old and he did not sleep through the night until well after a year old. When he did finally start I was so pregnant that I wasn't sleeping through the night now my little girl is not sleeping through the night which means I haven't really had a good full nights rest in about two years!

I would love to have a tummy tub and wombie for my sweet ten week old daugeter, she has had such a rough start to her precious life... anything that could comfort her and give her some peaceful rest would be wonderful. My daughter was born with tracheal/laryngomalacia and was in the NICU for the first week of her life and from then on has been in the doctors office for numberous reasons, she has been diagnosed with GERD and a severe milk and soy protien allergy,I would love to buy these products for her however we are on a very strict budget due to the fact she is on a special medical amino acid formula that costs a fortune!!!About 100 dollars a week.I watched the video on the fussy baby facebook page and I would love for my daughter and I to have such a calming bedtime routine like was shown on the video,she has been poked and proded and had tubes coming out of her since the day she was born, A lot of what she goes through is out of my control but I would love to give her this special gift of relaxing with mommy!
