  • Sense of entitlement, much? I'm expecting my first baby (a little boy) in February 2011. While I did invest in the monthly profits of Baby on the Hip to gather a few items right in the early days of my pregnancy (the ones where you haven't quite yet gathered just how expensive baby "things" are), I've since, after having created a nursery, had a baby shower, read umpteen books and blogs, developed the opinion that babies (especially in Toronto), are only as expensive as you make them. This store has a great selection of organic clothing, locally made product and even high-end stuff for the women who are entitled to strollers that cost more than my car, among other exorbitantly priced things. My problem with the store is that while they take responsibility vis-a-vis carrying good, solid, organic and local products, they lack complete responsibility in terms of consumerism. They sell $48 sleepers for newborns. My understanding is that, provided it's not vomited on the first time it's worn and therefore maybe not good to wear again, newborns wear newborn clothes for about 7 minutes and then they move on to bigger and better sizing. The staff themselves are quite helpful (maybe because their compensation is part commissions based?) but I just can't get over the price of many of the goods in store. Simply, where they take responsibility for the environment, they undo it by lacking complete foresight and protection of first-time moms who don't know that babies grow exponentially once they're born. The store also gets crowded and busy (a la the "good" stores in Leslieville) and if you're pregnant and uncomfortable and warm, it may keep you from staying long enough to run up a tab with them. They do, however, offer the line of Rock-A-Bye Baby CD's, which are crazy good. Check them out- all your favourite hits (Tool, Metallica, etc.) transcribed for the softer and more infant friendly glockenspiel.
