How Did I Ever Live Without... -- Bottle Snugglers Review/Giveaway

By Jennifer (Double Duty Mommy) at 4:42 PM 0 Comments
Lets see, as a mom what do we have to worry about? Feeding this child, bathing the other child, cooking, cleaning, TRYING to grab a bite to eat for yourself.. and the list goes on, right?
How many times can you not get one of those things done in your day because your precious baby needs your help, especially when it comes to feeding time?

I know as a mom of two I've definitely wished I had a third hand at some point in the past 6 years. Lately when I'm trying to feed Kendall is when Makenna will need something from me and I'll have to say, "hold on, I have to feed sister" or when your at the dinner table and your food is getting cold because you have a screaming baby to feed and in my case I desperatly have to pump but Kendall also needs to be fed.

Well Jennifer Marko is the president of Marko Holdings, Inc. It's a family-owned business based right here in my state of Florida. Her and her family have created a little helping hand for all parents out there.
Bottle Snugglers is a baby bottle holder to help give you time to do all the things you can't really do when it's feeding time for your little one.

You cna choose from 4 cute animals to be your child Snuggler. The cow, a piggy, a bear, and a puppy all have a square area on their backs that the looped bottle holder attaches to. If you have a bigger bottle you can use two loops, and just one loop for a smaller (6-4oz) bottle. The loops have velcro on them that attach to the square are on the animals back so it's always adjustable, which I love. At first glace I thought the looped bottle holder part was attached so I did question how well the Bottle Snugglers would work but again since it's totally adjustable it works great.

We were sent the Cuddly Cow Bottle Snuggler. Daddy's cute thought process... well cows make milk of course so she needs to have a cow helper, lol. The first time we used it was eating out at a restaurant. I dont think we've ever gotten through a whole meal at a restaurant without having to pick up Kendall and/or feed her but with the help of her cow she was perfectly content.
We now NEVER leave the house without Cow (that's how to refer to it, hehe) because you never know when it can come in handy.
While using the Bottle Snugglers it's important to always have parental supervision and it's of course not intended for every feeding. It's definitely not a replacement for a parent and it's always best if you can still hold your baby and let the Snuggler hold the bottle.
Wait, babys grow up and now yor baby isn't a baby anymore, so what do you do with your Bottle Snuggler? Well of course since it's all machine washable I'm sure it's in great shape and you can regift it. But also you can just let you child use their cuddly animal as a toy! Since this little animal has been around them since they were so little I'm sure they will grow very attached to it so even though they dont need the help once they can hold their own bottle, the Bottle Snugglers make a great companion toy.

The Bottle Snugglers is definitely on my Must Have Baby Shower Gifts list!
