Enjoying the outdoors when you have a newborn can be quite a challenge. Worries about the bugs, the heat, the UV rays all feel amplified when it comes to a tiny baby's comfort and health. That's why we really like the idea of this product.
The BabbaCover is a baby seat cover made of extremely lightweight fabric that allows cool breezes in and keeps bugs out. The fabric even has UV protection, which is great since the American Academy of Pediatrics advises minimizing use of sunscreen on babies under 6 months of age. Entrepreneur and mother Jessica Kim of BabbaCo designed this smart piece of gear to be both functional and cute. It's made in the USA, is designed to fit all standard infant car seats, and we especially love that the window and the opening that allows you to grip the handle of your infant seat.

I bought a similar cover from walmart for less than $5 last year. It was still cute and 95% cheaper!
I loved that it was like a "protective bubble" around the baby the first few weeks- strangers couldn't poke at her like they did with my first baby.
I can't imagine spending $50 on something I'm only going to use for two months. Three, tops.
Uppababy carrier bubble is also cheaper, and less "cutesy". I use it to keep hands off my preemie.
my son spent very little time in his car seat (outside of the car) as he was usually snuggled into a sling, but i agree with the other comments: that's a big price tag for something that will only be used for a couple of months. ideally i think you'd want to use something like this for as short a time as possible in order to take advantage of those months where they can only sit while observing everything that goes on around them. using it too long in order to "get your money's worth" would deny them of learning opportunities. it's very attractive though.
I have a car seat stroller similar to the one above, and every time I take my baby out side for walks I need to cover the car seat with a blanket that inevitably flies away in the wind. I love this idea!! I have seen a bunch of patterns for these on sewing/quilting/crafty blogs, but not everyone is that handy.
I second the Uppababy Cabana. It costs a little less, looks more modern and fits under the carrier handle. The sun shield folds up into a little pouch if you want to just use the bug screen. I love it! However, if you want to support a mom entrepreneur, that's awesome too.
