National Contest for Expectant Mothers to Win over $150 in Boutique Baby Accessories

Dublin, Ohio – Calling all expectant mothers. The "Welcome, Baby!" drawing is a free contest for expectant mothers with a due date in 2007. One lucky winner will receive an assortment of boutique baby accessories from Contemporary Baby, a Dublin, Ohio based company owned by Meredith Liepelt.

The winner of "Welcome, Baby!" will receive Contemporary Baby products valued at up to $151 based on the number of entries in the contest, which gives participants motivation to encourage their pregnant friends to register as well. The winner will be able to select her favorite colors and prints, based on her personal preference and nursery décor. Women who are expecting in 2007 can register for free on the company's web site through February 28. Upon entry, registrants will receive a coupon for 15% off all purchases through February.

"We are excited to give a gift basket to an expectant mother," said Meredith Liepelt, President and Founder of Contemporary Baby. "Last year we gave away our products to celebrities through our participation in the Oscar® Nominee Gift bags but this year, we're thrilled to honor mothers who are not necessarily celebrities. In giving all registrants a special discount just for entering the contest, we hope that everyone feels that they have already won, in a sense."

Contemporary Baby burp cloths – the company’s flagship product – feature a unique, hourglass shape that eliminates bunching at the parent’s neck. "Hollywood Collection" bibs and gift sets feature bold prints inspired from the company's gift sets for the 2006 Oscar® Nominee Gift Bags. Oversized baby throws (30- x 40-inches) are designed large enough to last through a baby’s toddler years. All of the company’s products are manufactured in the United States from 100 percent, soft, absorbent, cotton flannel, cotton print or waffle chenille fabrics. Contemporary Baby’s products are dryer safe to help maintain their size and shape.

The company currently sells its full line of infant accessories to baby retailers and specialty boutiques in Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama and California. Contemporary Baby’s products are also available for direct-to-consumer purchase through the company’s web site.

Packaged individually, Contemporary Baby burp cloths retail for $15. The company’s baby bibs sell for $12, its throws for $60, gift sets (one bib and one burp cloth) for $27 and The Ultimate Gift Set for $87. The company also offers embroidery and customizable gift-baskets and gift sets.
