Hi everyone, I'm a new mom and also new to Kickstarter! We're about 1/3 of the way through our campaign, and are about 21% funded. Please take a look at our patent pending portable baby changing pad for squirmy babies!

Advice, suggestions, and support are welcome! Thank you

We also made the top 100 list for product design on Kickspy!

Great campaign and product! It's crazy to think there's nothing like it on the market when it's so convenient, and then there's the safety factor. I also liked your video, it's personal and I think it gets the point across well. Good luck on your campaign!

This is a great idea! I wish you all the luck in the world. Wish I had this when my daughter was a baby :cry:

Thanks so much for your encouragement and support! We actually just got some blog attention at breakformoms as well!

Slowly but surely we'll aspire to help parents with their daily diaper changing struggles...

Quick update! We're about 30% funded with two weeks to go. We also have 24 backers...who will be number 25?? Even $1 helps, so if you know or HAVE a squirmy baby, spread the word and take a peak at our video :) thanks so much!

Hey! So we're about 40% funded with 10 days to go! Coming out with new rewards on Monday, so check it out. We've gotten most of our pledges from Facebook. How have other Kickstarters gotten traffic to their projects? Thanks!

One thing I've seen other creators do when they are reaching the end of their campaign and are almost at their goal it to send out an update saying... if x number of people increase their pledge by x amount, then we will be funded!

Thank you for the advice, sbriggman! I might actually follow it, depending on where we are toward the end of the week :)
