Monkey Mama Necklaces is offering
NPN readers a giveaway of
a custom nursing necklace, a value of $19.
Monkey Mama nursing necklaces are made with beautiful, fairly traded, and nontoxic handmade resin beads. This sophisticated and safe jewelry is perfect for busting twiddling while feeding babies or toddlers.
From our reviewer, Jenn at Monkey Butt Junction:
The brilliance of the Monkey Mama necklaces is the "twiddle busters" - the beads that little fingers can turn and fiddle with while they nurse or snuggle. My son was immediately drawn to the big, colorful beads and immediately took to the task of turning them, examining them, and, well, "twiddling" them.

75% OFF, not 25% off, as your mind might trick you into thinking.
All you have to do is put $75 or more into your cart. Then pop in the discount code — JOLLY75 — and your order will be only 1/4 of what it once was ($18.75 if you had exactly $75 to start with).
After the discount, if your order is at least $30 (aim for $120 original in that case), then you get
free shipping. If not, shipping is just $3.95 flat rate.
I just bought
10 pairs of BabyLegs leg warmers for $3 each! I'm going to stash them away for baby gifts. Yea!

My book of parenting poetry,
Poetry of a Hobo Mama: The First Three Years,
would make a thoughtful holiday gift for a fellow mama. Today is the
last day for FREE Super-Saver Shipping if you order the book on Amazon — you can have it shipped directly to your lucky recipient.
I compiled all my
parenting-related poetry, from my first pregnancy and miscarriage, then Mikko's story from conception through pregnancy through the newborn phase and all the way up to toddlerhood.
If you're a fan of
attachment-style parenting, you'll enjoy reading poems written for
your experience:
breastfeeding, babywearing, cosleeping, gentle discipline, and more. And if you're a fan of
truth in parenting, you'll appreciate my honesty as I detail
the highs and the lows of three years of getting used to this roller coaster ride.
