Evenflo Advanced Embrace DLX Infant Car Seat With SensorSafe
Austlen Entourage Stroller
Whether you're a first-time mom or going on No. 2 (or three or four), this chic workhorse of a stroller coming in 2016 is made for you. No more complaints of small under-baskets with the Entourage, whose frame easily expands to fit an entire cooler underneath. Going to the local farmer's market? No problem! Just attach the included market tote and you've got a stroller and grocery cart all in one! Lugging Baby and your suitcase through the airport solo? Also not a problem! Just toss the luggage underneath and you're all set! Even a beach day becomes a breeze. The Entourage also converts to a double stroller with a simple click-in of the second seat (or Jump Seat, if your older child has outgrown a traditional stroller). My favorite part? The super roomy parent console which comes with—wait for it—two cup holders!

Owlet Baby Monitor
Using the same technology as hospitals to check heart rate and oxygen saturation, the Owlet Baby Monitor is the latest in reassuring parents that their little one is still breathing. The Smart Sock has a little light that shines through the skin to measure blood flow and oxygen flow—just like those things they clip on your finger at the hospital! It's made to work with your iPhone, but just in case your battery dies, there's a backup Base Station that will still alert you if your baby stops breathing. It also automatically uploads Baby's vitals to the cloud so you can be informed even when you're at work or traveling.

Greentom Upp Stroller
The world's first totally green stroller is here, and it's fabulous! It's 100 percent made of recycled plastic, weighs less than 16 pounds and takes you all the way from newborn to toddler and beyond, thanks to the included bassinet, full-size seat and bumper bar. The fabric is made of recycled bottles and it's super easy to fold. Another standout feature? The amazing color choices (how gorgeous is that mint?!) and the fresh white frame. The Upp is available now, so go ahead, add it to that baby registry—guilt-free!

Momsense Breastfeeding Monitor
One of the No. 1 questions new moms who are breastfeeding have is "how do I know how much milk my baby is getting at each feed?" Now there's a product (and app) to help put these moms' minds at peace. Mom puts in the headphones and places a baby-safe sensor on her baby. She will then be able to physically hear the gulping noises Baby makes while eating. These acoustic signals allows the app to closely measure how much milk the baby has taken in and tracks all feeds for you. How cool is that?!

Just Born Deluxe Swaddle
Just Born has launched a new line of easy-to-use swaddles that also includes a built-in headrest to prevent the dreaded flat head our pediatricians are always warning about. It also has a tummy wrap built in to help infants with gas—a feature I'm sure all moms would be ecstatic about. More pluses? Oh-so-sweet prints and an affordable price point ($34). It would make a perfect baby shower gift for any expecting mom.

Fisher-Price Soothing Motions Seat
Finally, a bouncer/rocker hybrid that won't break that bank. Not only is the Soothing Motions Seat affordable at its $159 price point, the seat also mimics the movements Mom makes and gives the option of having Baby sway side to side, bounce up and down, or do both at the same time (aka the waiting-in-line-at-Starbucks sway we moms all know too well). And with a pleasing modern color palette, this is sure to become one of those go-to registry items for expecting parents everywhere. It will be available January 2016.
