Baby Freebies

Here are some web addresses and 800 numbers for some of the most recognized baby names in the market. They will all be competing for your business now that you have a child or one on the way. Give them a call or visit their website to see what they have to offer. The individual companies may ask for information about your child (due date or birth date, sex etc…) to add you to their mailing list. Thanks to Melissa Daniel for her help with many of these links.
