Blooming Bath

At Blooming Bath, we love all things baby shower-related, from talking baby shower themes and decorations, to hunting for the best baby shower gifts, to finding tips on baby shower registries. So when we heard about the nonprofit organization Operation Shower, whose motto is: “Supporting our military families by delivering baby showers – one amazing shower at a time,” we just had to get in on the celebration.

For those of you who haven’t heard about Operation Shower, it’s an amazing nonprofit organization that helps provide baby showers for military families to ease the stress of deployment.

As anyone whose been pregnant knows, expecting a baby can be stressful enough for moms-to-be, but for women in military families the stress can be compounded by the deployment of spouses and living far from immediate family.

In March 2007, LeAnn Morrissey wanted to give back to the military. She was asked to send cards to 4 women who were expecting babies while their spouses were deployed. She did them one better and sent the women a baby shower in a box. Soon, Operation Shower was born. The organization started hosting baby showers for military families providing support and high-quality products. As of January 2013, the organization has hosted baby showers for more than 1,000 women and families. They’ve head 30 unit-wide showers on bases across the country.

National sponsors like Babies R Us and others have also signed on to support the organization.  Blooming Bath is also proud be a supporter of the organization, having recently participated in the organization’s Hawaii baby shower, where the Blooming Bath for babies was just one of a number of amazing items donated to expecting military moms.

Congratulations to all the military families out there expecting new babies. We love our troops and their families!

It’s a brand new year. A brand new lunar year, that is. On Feb.10 millions of people around the world celebrated the start of the Chinese New Year. The event brought the close of the Year of the Dragon and ushered in the Year of the Snake.

The Chinese lunar calendar consists of 12 zodiac signs and the Dragon is said to be one of the luckiest signs to be born under. Even as the year came to a close, newly expecting parents in countries around the world were rushing to the hospital to deliver ‘lucky’ dragon babies.

According to news reports, the number of babies born during this past Dragon Year were the highest numbers of the decade, at 42,600.  The increase marks a 7 percent jump over the number of babies born in 2011. In Singapore alone there were 40,000 more births over 2011 figures.

Those parents who will now be welcoming babies born under the Snake sign are said to be looking forward to raising children who are polite, humble, energetic, smart and patient, but also at times demanding and cunning.

This year is also a water year so Snake babies are expected to be more adaptable and will easily tolerate others. In addition, babies born between now and the next Chinese New Year (on Jan. 31) will be charming, sociable and attractive.

Some of the well-known people born in past Snake Years include Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi, Franz Schubert, Alfred Nobel and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

When it comes to shopping for gifts for friends and family members who are expecting, it can be difficult to say the least. Many times new parents want to wait until the baby is born to know whether it is a boy or a girl, but the baby shower is held months in advance. Other times, parents may find out the sex of their baby, but already have special color themes picked out for their nursery and baby products.

When shopping for baby shower gifts for the soon-to-be parents, there are a number of ways you can shop at Blooming Bath to ensure that you still getting the new parents exactly what they want.  Here are just a few of the ways to do so:

Gift Registry – Blooming Bath has partnered with MyRegistry.com which allows new parents to create one online wish list of all the baby items they want. Check to see if the new mom and dad has a gift registry that you can peruse to get an idea of the different types of products and colors they are asking for. You can also mention the site to them and encourage them to join, so you can get a better sense of what they want for their new baby.

Gift Card – Giving a gift card is a great way to ensure that new moms and dads get exactly what they want for their new baby. And, it’s easy on the giver too. All you need to do is visit the Blooming Bath Gift Card page. Once purchased, you will receive an email confirmation with a gift code valid to use on the website. You can either forward along the code to your gift recipient or print it out and wrap it up to go with other items. A Blooming Bath gift card is also a good choice if you can’t attend the baby shower or live far away and don’t want to have to ship a gift.

Buy Neutral – If you are attending the baby shower and want a gift that is sure to elicit oohs and ahhs from all present than there is no better way than to gift the new mom a Blooming Bath bath tub for babies.

We are excited to be back from Hollywood where Blooming Bath recently participated in the Boom Boom Room's Pre-Golden Globe Gifting Suite event for celebrities. Fashion guru Jayneoni Moore created the event as a way to connect celebs with the hottest, must-have products for babies and kids.

The event was an amazing opportunity to share the Blooming Bath for babies – the most adorable baby bath on the market - and meet some wonderful parents and parents-to-be.

Stars  like Scott Wolf, Ian Ziering, Lisa Ling and even singer Nikka Costa stopped by to pose with their new Blooming Baths. Here are just a few of the great shots that were captured at the event. To see more from the event, visit our Facebook Page.

Blooming Bath (www.BloomingBath.com) is headed to Hollywood to debut the Blooming Bath for babies bathtub, to some of the most well known stars of the big screen.

Blooming Bath was hand-selected as a must-have baby product to be gifted to A-list celebrity moms and dads at the Boom Boom Room's Pre Golden Globe Gifting Suite. The event takes place in Los Angeles January 11th-12th.

"Blooming Bath is excited to be a part of this star-studded gifting opportunity," said Blooming Bath President Brian Pond. "Celebrities such as Kourtney Kardashian have already discovered the comfort and ease of using the Blooming Bath during baby bath time. Now we are excited to introduce this adorable and unique baby bath product to an even broader segment of parents."

Recently called, "a must-have, smart solution" by Bobbie Thomas of the Today Show, the Blooming Bath for babies is a soft, plush flower that conforms to any sink or tub, providing babies 0-8 months a comfy, convenient and adorable bathing experience.

TV personality and fashion guru Jayneoni Moore designed the Gifting Suite event so celebrity parents could connect with the hottest, must-have clothing, products and accessories for babies and kids. In addition to celebrities, the Boom Boom Room will host more than 400 REAL moms, military families, members of the media and store buyers.

Blooming Bath is based in Southern California, the brainchild of four dads who were tired (and a little scared) of handling their slippery babies in hard plastic bathtubs. The Blooming Bath's quick-drying, foam-filled pedals create a safe, soft and supportive pouch that your precious little one will enjoy – guaranteed.

Blooming Bath's recent accolades include:
