• Baby Boy Codpiece -- With Matching Capes

  I feel like I'm somehow not allowed to comment on the Weeblock, this super absorbant codpiece meant to prevent little baby boys from peeing all over your face during diaper changes.

• Baby Gadgets: Do Parents NEED Half This Crap?!

  It's open mic time here at Strollerderby, folks. Tell us: what's the most useless baby gadget or gift you've ever received? (Come on, don't be shy; we promise you that your mother-in-law isn't reading.) Barring that, what's the most extravagant and pointless baby purchase you've ever made? If you can't think of any, then revel in your superiority by reading this article from the Associated Press about useless baby crap. The targets of the AP's ire include: Pee-Pee Teepees (a pointed Dixie cup for catching runaway squirts during changes); wipe warmers (which National Review writer Jay Gress actually accuses of destroying Western civilization!); bottle warmers (which aren't destroying Western civilization - just your bank account); and microwave steam sterilizers (which is something I didn't even know I didn't need). I guess we should count ourselves frugal; we've never squandered large sums on pointless merchandise. Well, except condoms. A lot of good those did.
