    Babies grow far to quickly for parents to subscribe to a single plan and the stockpile would be far too much to maintain... on a startup budget. Why not try an exchange network, us…

    Build a prototype first under a dev name, ours was 'Festy' until we unveiled the name. If it's a Premium Domain for $3,000+ on GoDaddy, it won't likely sell anytime soon. But, even…
