Something is coming. 🍼✨

When I invented the bunny bottle-lovey, I thought I’d solved the puzzle.

And then the DMs started coming in.

“Do you have it in blue?” “Our family loves puppies — does it come in that?” “We prefer gender neutral colors.”

You were telling me something.

That feeding time isn’t just about solving a problem. It’s about creating a moment that feels like yours.

So I’ve been working on it.

New animals. New colors. Same bottle-lovey you already trust — made personal.

I’m not ready to show you everything yet. But I wanted you to be the first to know it’s coming.

When mama can’t be there, her smell can 🥹

This review stopped us in our hearts. this mom was nervous about her breastfed baby transitioning to daycare.
He’s taking his bottles like a champ. 🍼

This is exactly why we do what we do. The hard transitions, the mom guilt, the “will he be okay without me?” — we can’t fix all of it, but we can help make it a little easier.

On the days when it feels like too much — when to-do list is endless, and I’m running on coffee and determination — I look over and she’s right there beside me.

Handing me tape. Placing things in boxes. Ready for the next task.

What she doesn’t know yet is that every time she shows up next to me, she’s learning something I could never teach her from a book. That her mom built something from nothing. That work is something to be proud of. That dreams don’t have to stay dreams.

I’m not just building a business. I’m showing her what’s possible.

Don’t forget — whatever you’re building, whoever is watching — you’re teaching a tiny human what’s possible too.

I think about this a lot.

The things we don’t do rarely haunt us because they were too hard or too risky. They haunt us because we just... kept waiting. For the right time. For the fear to go away. For someone to tell us we were ready.

Spoiler: No one is coming to give you permission to start.

I spent years sitting on ideas, talking myself out of moves, convincing myself the timing was off. And then one day I stopped waiting and built the bottle-lovey — and everything changed. Not because the fear disappeared. Because I decided the regret of not trying would hurt more than the risk of failing.

You have one life. The move you keep almost making? It’s waiting for you.

Make it today.

Your baby knows your scent. And science proves it prepares them to feed.

Researchers presented newborns with a gown worn by their own mother. The results were profound — crying babies calmed. Awake babies began mouthing, their body’s instinctive signal that it was ready to feed.

This is the research the bottle-lovey was built on. Not a trend. Not a gimmick. Decades of peer-reviewed infant bonding science — applied to one of the hardest parts of early parenthood.

Because bottle feeding is hard enough. Your baby deserves every tool that helps them feel safe while they do it. 🤍

3rd pregnancy and I really thought this time would be different. 😂

Treated myself to a brand new diaper bag.

It survived exactly 48 hours before my toddler found a pen — not a washable marker, not a crayon — a pen. Permanent. Thorough. Proud of their work.

I should have known. The first baby gets the pristine nursery and the matching everything. By the third, you’re just trying to keep the snacks stocked and your belongings un-vandalized.

Spoiler: you cannot do both.

To every mom of 2+ who has ever bought something nice only to watch it be immediately destroyed — I see you. I am you. We are in this together. 🤍

Now if anyone has a tip for getting pen off a diaper bag, my DMs are open. Asking for a very tired, very pregnant friend.

POV: you’re growing a human, raising kids, building a business, and somehow managing to also lose track of how pregnant you are. 🙋‍♀️

True story. I sat down, asked Chat how far along I was based on my due date — fully expecting it to confirm I was 31 weeks, but in reality it confirmed I am only 28 weeks. 🤯

This is what happens when you’re a mom, a founder, and pregnant all at the same time. The brain cells are being allocated elsewhere. And apparently so is losing three weeks of pregnancy.

Send help. And ice cold water. It is HOT out here. 🥵

If you’re in your third trimester building something from nothing while keeping tiny humans alive — this one’s for you.

And cheers to a few extra weeks of being pregnant.

After experiencing bottle refusal with my son, I went deep into research and discovered how powerful a mother’s scent can be for babies — helping soothe them, comfort them, and support feeding.

That’s what inspired the bottle-lovey.

What started as a solution for my own family has now helped so many parents navigating bottle struggles, daycare transitions, and feeding anxiety.

If you’re in the thick of it right now: you are not failing.

Feeding journeys can be emotional, exhausting, and isolating — and you deserve support too.

Thank you for being here and supporting this dream of mine 🫶

Inspired by real motherhood and real bottle refusal struggles. Backed by scientific research on maternal scent and infant feeding behavior.

The bottle-lovey is more than a comforting stuffy that wraps around a baby’s bottle. The lovey holds a little heart that carries mom’s scent, and soothes a baby no matter whose feeding them.

The bottle-lovey by Bottimals:
🤍 Adds a familiar scent for soothing feeding moments
🤍 Fits most baby bottles
🤍 A bottle attachment that’s a soft, cuddly stuffy
🤍 Created by a mom to support families and babies
