The product it's pushing does have wheels, but it's a stroller. The trademarks of baby products used to be primary colors, bulk and an overall aesthetic that was, well, childish.

"Sixty-eight percent of moms say that they want to be spoken to as more than just a mom," said Katherine Wintsch, founder of the Mom Complex, a think tank that researches what mothers want out of products and brings that information to companies.
