Itzbeen

As a new parent, sleep-deprivation can get the best of you. Suddenly, you have trouble remembering even the simplest things. When did I feed Junior last...or...was that yesterday? Or, you wake up in the middle of the night because you forgot to change little Sally's diaper...and then, after trekking ALL THE WAY across the hall in the dark (stumbling over the dog), you realize...she's at grandma's (you had been hoping to get some sleep). Well, lucky you, because Coast Innovations has a new product in town called Itzbeen.

This awesome product keeps track of the last time you changed baby's diaper, fed baby, baby went down for a nap, and an "extra" time (we just hope you don't forget what that one is for). It also has a functioning clock built in, and a special switch to help you remember which side baby nursed from last (if you choose to breastfeed). You can set it so the alarm sounds, or just let let it count upwards, so when you start wondering "When was the last time I...."...You'll know. It has a handy-dandy clip on the back so you can carry it around...heck, you can even clip it to the baby (or even safer, baby's crib). The itzbeen also has a soft glow nightlight to help you find your way around in the dark, as well as a display backlight so you can read the screen.

Personally, I'm pretty impressed. This gadget is truly great- and would make for a great baby shower gift!
