Motherhood Maternity free offers....

Hello! I was going thru a bunch of coupons and stuff I had in my shopping bag and noticed the free offers for the car seat canopy, nursing cover and sling.  Has anyone redemed these?  Are they worth the shipping?  Thanks!!

I got both the carseat cover and the nursing cover.  Both were worth it in my opinion.  I'm usually pretty skeptical with offers like that, but I think I ended up paying about $12.00 for each of them and am glad I did.

I wish someone would have told me about these things before I bought them both. They're made of very poor quality fabric and IMO, not worth the shipping I paid for them. The "sling" stretches out and unless you get the exact right size for you, doesn't work very well according to the posts I've read about these so far. The canopy cover would work fine in warmer weathered states, but there's no way that's going to keep my baby warm this winter.

Proceed with caution, you get what you pay for.

I got the nursing cover and for $12 shipping/handling it seems like a decent deal.  I was registered for a comparable one on Amazon for $30.

I got the nursing cover combo pack and the sling.  I love the nursing cover but I wish I wouldn't have got the sling.  The fabric wasn't stretchy at all and it's very stiff and hard to work.  Like pp said you have to make sure you get the right size, and even then the ease of use isn't there for me.

 

I think I maybe paid $20 total for all.  Eh, like I said I really like the nursing cover because it has a nice bow curve at the top so I can see LO. So hopefully won't get too hot.

I just got mine in the mail last week! I really like the canopy and while like a pp said the canopy isnt going to keep the baby warm in the winter it's not supposed to it's made to keep the wind off your baby you still use a blanket! It's super nice and has minky on the inside! The nursing cover is well worth it if you are going to get one anyways its like $12 versus paying $30+ in a store! The only thing I didn't like was the sling! I order the one for my size acording to their sizing chart and I don't see how a baby could fit in there so Im going to try to exchange it for a bigger one and see if it will be better then... Even though I purchases the exchange insurance they offer there rules are so strict and my package is ripped and Im sure I won't be able to fold it up in the right way so I will most likely get the same one back!

Thanks for posting this questions, and thanks for the feedback ladies!   I just ordered the carseat canopy and the nursing cover but was skeptical about the sling so hadn't ordered that yet.  Glad I didn't!  I think ill just still with the baby carrier on my registry instead.

Not a bad deal for the carseat cover and nursing cover in my opinion. Especially since my sister in law was going to purchase it anyway for us at full price!

I got the carseat cover.  Meh, it will work for us since we live in So Cal.  The colors are cute, but the fabric is a little on the cheap side.  It is honestly so simple I could have made it myself, but the cost of fabric would have been compatible to the price of shipping.  There is no way it is worth the $50+ original price tag.  But for $12 s/h I feel like I got my money's worth.

Like PP I've heard not so good things about them. Remember, if a deal is too good to be true...it probably is. You get what you pay for.

I like my nursing cover and carseat cover. Both good material IMO and worth the shipping.

I got the nursing cover, and will probably get the sling and the car seat canopy. I wasn't sure about the car seat canopy since you could just use a freaking blanket, but I saw a woman with one and it just looked so handy-dandy.
