MIMA KOBI PRAM is a great stroller, not just aesthetically, but because of its many capabilities.
The Mima Kobi Pram was created to be used for years until your child becomes a well-grown toddler. In fact, it transforms from an infant-ready pram to a toddler seater. And if you have two children with close ages you don’t have to buy another stroller for the other, by buying a separate seat you can bring your kids with you in one pushchair.
The pushchair has two height adjustments to fit a parent’s preference. The seat(s) can also be faced outward or towards the mother, whichever way the parent is comfortable with. And seat(s) can be adjusted to recline in three angles. You can customize adjustments to your taste, and as to which makes you and your child comfortable and safe. This can be easily folded to be towed away when not in use.
The Mima Kobi Pram Starter Kit is available in Stone White, Black, Ruby Red, Ash Brown, Hot Magenta, Cobalt Blue. You can choose the color of the seat and canopy in these colors Dark Grey, White, or Cosmo (silver). The package includes a changing bag.
GOOD NEWS! Metro Mum is slashing the price of this multifunctional pram from $1348.00 to $1019.15. Great savings from a high quality baby stroller. This is a good investment that will last you until your children grow out of it. Order before the 30th of June to avail of the discount.

Going to the mall with a baby who needs to be nursed is no problem nowadays. Most shopping malls already have a breastfeeding section, and there is heightened awareness with mothers who prefer to breastfeed their babies. When the going gets tough – or when the baby is calling, rather – you have to be prepared to feed your baby without needing to change clothes and pulling up shirts.
The seamless camisole is elastic and made for nursing, so you can wear it when you’re pregnant or when you have already given birth to a breastfeeding baby. An alternative is Maternity Plus’ feeding tank, which serves the same purpose. These are both ensured to make feeding easy and comfortable to both mommy and baby, without sacrificing style.
Cover up and add an oomph to your getup with Bowerbird Vintage’s I Love Lucy Cape, which is dusty rose in color and drapes softly from the shoulders. It is made of a floaty semi-sheer fabric with design reminiscent of the 70′s when it’s all thin waists and babydoll look. Pair this with RIPE’s Mischa maternity jeans, which is straightcut and has an elastic band at the waist to accommodate a baby bump.
If you are breastfeeding your baby, it is important to keep track of feeding times, and Mothers Minder’s reminder bracelets are chic and fashionable ways of reminding you of baby’s hungry hours.
Keep yourself looking fresh and pretty with Urban Rituelle’s Raspberry lip balm to prevent chapped, dry, and pale puckers. This lip balm has natural beeswax, sweet almond oil, olive oil, and shea butter, plus vitamin E and sunscreen, to keep lips soft and protected.
Put the lip balm and your other beauty products (and baby’s essential things, of course) in the chic Storksak Elizabeth nappy bag. Unlike other baby bags, you can even use this bag even if you don’t have a baby, because of its beautiful leather body and classy design. Made out of textured cow leather, this bag has a top-zip closure and features a removable thermo-insulated bottle holder and a changing mat.
If you know someone who’s a hip mommy, you can give her a gift from these selection of items. It is proof that motherhood – and nursing a baby – is not the end of chicness and coolness.
Catch the Easter Bunny to win a whopping and hopping $150 gift voucher. Go to MetroMum’s Facebook page for clues and scour MetroMum’s homepage to find Mr. Bunny! Fill up this competition form with your answer and cross your pretty fingers and hope for the best.
The hunt ends at the 30th of April 2011. Don’t be late.

Owls symbolize wisdom. With those big saucer-like eyes and brooding discretion, an owls dignified stance on a big tree branch screams “I am Wise”. The knowledge of these critters go beyond the darkness of the night, it goes even to the welfare of your little trotter. They hold the secret to your kid’s cleanliness, name aesthetics, sound recognition, color harmonization and blocking, room ornamentation, book keeping, and many more. You need not travel into a thick forest in a faraway kingdom to seek that wisdom from an owl. I have laid them out in full abandon right here.
Thus the Wise Hooter says, humans bearing XX-chromosomes who had and will pass their genetic makeup to an offspring, tranquilize your maternal hormones, control your hypothalamus, and proceed downwards. Seek and you shall find.
