Home Run, Baby
Spring 2008 Maternity Guide
You tried out and made the team. Now you’ve got to hit this whole pregnancy thing out of the park.
Call in the coach. The Baby Planners (310-433-2818) concierge/consulting service gives you a play-by-play for all your pre- and post-baby products, services, and needs.
Get your uniform together. Baking Mix is a go-to cotton henley, skirt, and pant set by 1 in the Oven. Or hold up your favorite jeans the whole game long with the BellaBand (Babystyle, 1324 Montana Avenue, Santa Monica; 310-434-9590).
It’s the seventh inning stretch. Book a pregnancy massage at Arcona Studio (425 Broadway, Santa Monica; 310-458-3800). Forget the peanuts and Cracker Jack and quell your cuckoo cravings with Oreo and mascarpone ice cream at Scoops (712 North Heliotrope Drive, East Hollywood; 323-906-2649), where the flavors change daily — like your moods.
Play ball!
