We could all use an extra helping hand right? Here are some of the most innovative designs to give a mom a helping hand:

1. The Bunk Barrier is a 36 inch tall sturdy wrap that you put, as the name implies on an older child's bunk bed to keep the little ones from climbing it. As the mother of 16 month old twins--I can tell you--this would be super helpful.

2. A potty seat with a built in step stool? What can I say? There are less pieces of furniture to locate for training your toddler on the "big potty."

3. Adiri Breast Bottle Nurser. This bottle is shaped and designed for the breastfed baby who takes bottles. The nipple is shaped like a breast and the flow of the milk is supposed to mimic the flow of breast milk.

4. Baby Garment Extenders. Have you ever had a baby grow out of something in length but not in girth? These garment extenders help solve that problem. Basics like onesies can be made longer by these extenders that snap onto the crotch.

5. Good Bites Mini Bites. Actually de-crusts and cuts your sandwich for you into 4 triangles. If only they could invent something that actually made the sandwich first.

6. Baby Cubes. For all you moms who venture to make your own baby food, these are customized baby food cubes for you to freeze the food in and then you can thaw a cube or two at a time according to how much your baby eats.

7. The Stroller Pick Up Seat. What do you do if you have an infant and a young toddler? We always made ours walk. . .but if yours is a little uncooperative, here's a seat that attaches to most strollers that he can either stand on or sit on to turn your stroller into a tandem stroller.

8. Phil & Ted's strollers. This particular stroller is the most compact stroller I've ever seen. A second child is actually situated low to the ground underneath the first. Super cool if you live in the city.

9. Butt Paste. I swear by this for getting rid of diaper rash. Every friend that I've ever given it to, has used it and never gone back to more traditional brands. I apologize for the horrible name but trust me, this is the best stuff on the market.

10. Soothies. This is the must have for nursing moms. If your nipples are sore or cracked, this little product will take care of it in no time.
