Have you seen the new Baby Alive. I didn't believe it was the same. It's creepy looking. It has these freaky bug eyes. Nothing like the original.

This was my doll growing up, I tried to tell my co-workers one day in meeting about baby alive and how I had to change her pampers and they didn't believe me. I am 41 soon to be 42 and this doll was my best friend growing up

I had a Baby Alive! I mis 80's Toys!

I got a Baby Alive doll for my sixth birthday. I remember that it was hard to get the food into its mouth, and if you didn't flush it out with enough water from the baby bottle after feeding her, the food would dry inside. You couldn't feed her after that!

Well, 20 years ago, I used to put mushy foods into her mouth and then stuff them down when she wouldn't swallow it. Nonetheless, I collect cabbage patches now.

I was 5 when I got my Baby Alive and sometimes I would eat the food myself. It wasn't that good... haha!

Haha @ the last comment. If it was made to go in the doll, I guess it wouldn't be so good. I think I remember the commercials for this thing.

I had one of those! She's still in my attic I think. I didn't remember her looking so much like a porno blowup doll in this face with that mouth like that! lol Nowadays that would be the biggest joke in the office to see that thing. I never tried to eat the food. I looked really nasty. I always thought it was a really gross concept for a doll to eat and poop, because the food would still stick inside the body pipe and if you didn't get it cleaned out it would start smelling like rotten food in there.

"I love the way you make me feel! YOu're so real!!" LOL. they are making these again now. I remember the nieghbor girl had one when i was a kid and we would be totally grossed out when it pooped. And you're right Tammy, the inside smelled like CRAP!!! LOL!

I had one of these when I was kid. I fed it real food and it got lodged inside her pipes. I couldnt get the food out and I thought if I told my parents, they would be upset so needless to say the food remained inside for quite sometime. lol

I still have my Baby Alive but she doesn't work anymore.I loved this doll as a kid.

lol@jane. That song was so catchy. I got my first Baby Alive Doll for christmas when I was like 10 or 11 years old. I played with her until she had simply burned out. I am so happy that they have decided to bring these dolls back. Yea!!!! At 28 with no kids, I gotta get me one lol

I remember wanting this doll so badly and was so happy when I got it on Christmas morning. She always got clogged though with all that food mush, I think my dad had to use the air compressor to get it out one time lol.

I remember this doll. I never had one, but I know a couple of people that did.

i never had one!

I was her mother when I was 8 yrs old. I remember being grateful that her pamper was not stinky. Eventually she had some stomach problem and could no longer eat. The new dolls look like a product of a Brat doll C-Section.

I always wanted one of these dolls when I was younger so I've decided to start my daughter off with the wet and wiggle version which is smaller than the actual baby alive, kind of like and infant and I must say that I'm excited to see how it works .

this doll.this freaking doll.

I think I'm getting a baby alive for christmas!! I can't wait, but seeing all of these negative comments about baby alive is so depressing...I wish that the food wouldn't dry in the pipes. Well I guess I'll have to see on Christmas morning! Thanks for all the helpful comments! :) -Jennifer

I have one of the new dolls bye the way i'm almost 11 and i love it. The feeding process can be difficult but i think it is good practice for health class when i'm older. Oh and the eyes aren't that big i also have a wets and wiggles.

didn't they use to stink after eating all that 'food'?

my mom had one of those dolls and now i have one.

i have one right it work so col

I had a baby alive when I was a girl. I loved her so much and now I have one of the new ones and luckily I have a little 4 year old to give it to.

my mama said she had a baby alive when she was little.im 11 and i still love to play with my baby alive.its just like a real baby.when it eats and drinks,that suprises me and to clean it up i feel like a real mama!!!!! thisw is the best doll ever but i think it needs more features!!!

I got a baby alive for Christmas in 3rd grade, It was ALL I wanted and I opened it and it did not work! I was so crushed I stayed under the christmas tree all day the next day but when I got it it was so magical! I remember mixing up that jello stuff for food and the rraawwraaaw of the mouth motor when it ate! and the "poop" was the same color as the food! I think mine is still around somewhere.

the food didn't always want to come out the other end. it probably got stuck inside and created toxic, poisonous mold. i wouldn't be surprised if that mold is responsible for some of my "issues" today.

I have the new Baby Alive doll. Yes the eyes are big, but it doesn't bug me because of her baby smile. After my doll food ran out, my mom convinced me to use baby cerial even after telling her that is says not to use real food. I haven't had problems with this doll, except my back hurts after I clean her up. It'd be so much easier if I could stick her in the bath tub and scrub her down. But until they build water tight baby alive dolls, that won't happen. My back pain must be because of my scoliosis (SP??????) I'm 14 and I still love it! I still love playing with baby dolls only because I don't have a real baby around to nurture. I like the realistic ones so I can learn more about parenting. My grandma got me twin dolls that talk to each other and even fight with each other! They're called Too Cute Twins. I plan to give my dolls to my kids when I grow up. Baby alive is the most realistic doll I have when it comes to feeding and diapering. I just don't like that the play only lasts a few seconds.

I loved my baby alive i took such good care of her. Till the top of her head fell off I asked my grandpa to fix it but he couldnt do it. So I had to throw my Baby Alive on the burn pile. I was so sad I am 40 now with kids I still look at them in the stores and tempted to buy one.

Mine peed all over my mom on Christmas morning; it was hysterical and she found out the hard way why we all wanted one so bad. I remember how her mouth used to move like she was eating and you got to make her "baby ceral".

I think I had a talking Baby Alive! I remember it having jellybeans on the dress. I was not happy with this doll because it didn't have a lot of hair, and it peed. I remember it saying "I'm hungry Mommy" and I told it to "Wait a minute"! I also think I got some meatloaf stuck in her mouth at dinner time! She was not one of my favorite toys!! That's what I got for wanting every toy that I saw on T.V.!!

i just saw a baby at the thrift store she was the last time i came maybe i could got her if she had a back.

I had the Baby Alive from the early 80s that wasn't battery operated, you just pushed a lever on her back up and down that made her mouth move. My sister and I were ALWAYS putting that doll in the tub so I guess it was safe...took her to the park one day and somebody stole her(!!!)Haven't seen one like it since, and I'd love to get the non-battery one especially now that the dang food for the new scary doll is EVERYWHERE at stores!

I wish that i had this baby alive instead of the new one the new one is not so real wish i had ya

I'm 16 and I Like The Old Baby Alive Better. The New Ones Is Creepy.

the new baby alive is creepy i wish i had this one she is so cute in the pic wish i had ya

I haven't a clue why they cracked out Baby Alive. The new one is just ugly. I agree with one of the comments above...I remember the food drying out inside if she didn't "drink" enough. It was great!

My 2 year old found my doll in my old bedroom at my parents i hope it still works she will enjoy it just like i did when i was little

I agree with Heather, the new ones do not look like the original. And they're creepy looking with those big eyes. I'd think real young girls would be scared. I would not purchase a new one. Unfortunately, I never had an original either. My mother would not let me have one because she was afraid I'd make a mess on the carpet and furniture with the food. I've always wanted an original though.

does anyone know how to make a home-made food that will work with this doll?

i remember having one when i was a little girl they need to bring the original back they were bigger and much more durable

I remember this doll. She was one of my favorites. I was sad when they stopped selling the food for her. I think it's good that they brought her back, but they shouldn't have changed her design because now she is more creepy than cute!

I had a knock off Baby Alive..she kinda sucked

I had the 80's baby alive and loved her,my little girl has the new one. the doll sucks it doesn't even look like her.

I LOVED this doll!!! My first one broke and I was so upset so my parents bought me a new one. I would always love to feed her and one time I fed her all of the food packets in one day and then I was upset because I didn't have any food left. I remember my mother yelling at me because I would feed her too much and she would always tell me that she would get worms!

Oh my word. I'm soon to be 40 and wanted one of these so badly. My Mother would have nothing of it. She said I couldn't have it because eventually it would get MAGGOTS. I was devastated. When I was 19 My soon to be Mother-in-law got me one for Christmas. My MOM was livid. She wouldn't speak to me for a week over it. Anyway It has never been taken out of the box. It's the 80's doll. She still has all the diapers, the plate, bottle, and food packets. I tryied to sell her in a yard sale today but noone would take her for $10.00 so I kept her. She didn't go to good will.

My cousin and I had the Baby Alive Dolls from the early 1990's. We were both sitting combing our dolls hair and my cousin being so heavy handed, combed the cap of rooted hair right off of her doll. The doll was in "chewing" motion and when the hair cap came off there was nothing there but a bunch of gears turning in her head making a weird noise!! We both dropped those dolls, screamed and damn near killed each other trying to run to the safety of grandma. My grandmother eventually glued the hair cap back on with crazy glue, but my cousin wouldn't go anywhere near it!! She now has two daughters of her own, can you imagine how they feel when they have to get their hair combed:)!!!

I was telling my coworkers the other day about my Baby Alive the other day. I got one when I was 7 and one day I ran out of her baby food. After changing her last diaper i noticed her "poop" was just the baby food, so being the thrifty girl i was I scraped the "poop" out of the diaper and put it back into her bowl and fed it to her again. After a fun-filled day of feeding my baby poop my mom would force-feed her water and gave her an enema with a turkey baster and I would put my baby to bed. This is what made me realize I should not be a mother and my mother should never be a grandmother lol.

omg i have this doll loved it can u still buy the orginal some how i know they have a new one but nothing is as good as the orginal with anything...=]

I wanted this doll so bad but never got one.

I got one in the late 80's (a battery powered one) and had the same problem with the food getting clogged in her (no matter how much water I gave her). Then I got the "Talking Baby Alive" (that was more a standing toddler) a few years later.

Hahahaha I remember this doll! When I was a little girl in the 1980's I used to go with some friends of my mother's to go visiting at their families' house. A little girl there, younger than I was, had a Baby Alive and wouldn't let me touch it! She let the other little girls play with it, though. (she probably knew them-they may have been cousins)I'll never forget it! It wasbsolute torture watching her mix that cereal and wanting to do it too!

j'ai une poupé de baby alive mes pas comme séle la eller et tré moche et séle de moi je la trouve vrément belle sa se voi sé une enciéne poupée voila pour coi vous diser quél et belle il fon méme une poupée de baby alive en noirte pa mal nan

Baby Alive soft and sweet, she can eat and she can drink! Loved this commercial!

repent babys will kill us all

I'm 30 something, and next to my late grandmother, Baby Alive and Baby Feel So Real Were best and almost only friends. My mother was in an abusive marraige with my step dad, we moved arond a lot. My Baby Alive was lost and on xmas morning whenever the doll on the pic above was made my Baby Feel So Real was killed. I say killed because I took my duties as a mommie very serious and had hours of furn. My mother's friend came and smushed my baby. All the yellow gel goupe started oozing out. It seemed to me my mom's friend was more concerned about her jordace jeans, If you or anyone has this doll for sale pleas contact me at lwalton@emich.edu

I loved mine so much. I saved up my allowance for months so I could go to the store and buy one. I think I was 8 (1990)so $40 was a lot of money. I think I'm going to buy one for my cousin's daughter for her birthday next year.

Trying to find out the value of the 1980 Baby Alive Doll with Drewbarry More (as a child) is featured on the box with the Baby Alive Doll.

I will never forget begging my mom for this doll, and she actually said YES! I had the model from 1995, same as the black one in the picture up there, except her hair was up in a ponytail, and shorter. Yeah, that food/poop smelled musty, and the diapers ran out too fast, but other than that, it was the best doll ever. If anyone is selling that exact model, please let me know!

hello im 12 years old and my mother always says how she wanted a baby alive but was 50 cents short and was never able to get one do you know and i want to get her one for family chris cringles i cant find any on ebay so if anyone knows please help me it would make mum so happy please contact me on my e-mail cool_chick_paige@hotmail.com and name it 80's baby alive

I had one of these to!! I am sitting here dying laughing at all these comments!

I was also laughing very hard at all the comments, the gears inside the head one was hilarious. I have one of these for my daughters christmas this year and I hope in 20 or 30 years time she is writing on a forum such as this saying, my Mum bought me this for my 8th Christmas and...... (haha I hope it's a nice story AND not a maggot story!)

My wife has talked for years about how a baby alive was how she knew Santa Claus wasn't real. I'm trying to find her one for Christmas this year but man the ones for sale now look nothing like the old one from the 70's. Anyone with any ideas on a vintage site to pick one up? Any information would be welcome. hellcatdr@gmail.com

I remember having a Baby Alive doll in the 70's, and I loved her so until she started smelling like rotten wieners because the doll food was getting stuck inside of her. I also remember being horrified when I started seeing little bugs crawling out of her poop hole--I had also fed her real food too, and there were boll weasils breeding inside of her. I feel that I failed her, and I'm sorry.

i got a baby alive for christmas this year I love that doll its so fun to play with even though i am 15 lol

This doll was great!! I got her when I was around 8 or 9 years old (1980-81). My best neighborhood friend and I fed it all the food it came with then we ran out after awhile. My mom wouldn't buy us any more so we decided to use our own. OH BOY!;) You should of smelled the stink after a week of hmmmm let me see.... Pepsi, chocolate pudding, bologna, anything we could find. It got so nasty my mom threw her away. Tragic. Dang, I loved that doll. :) Thanks for posting on this guys I had a good laugh!!

OMG they had those things in the 80s wow, But if want somthin that poops get a puppy!

we found my baby alive doll she had been put up for four years we took her out the closet and she still works but her batteries were very old inside her back was that acid from leaving them in for so long it made my sister sick because her doll was messed up like that and it quit working

I had the black baby alive. I loved the thing to death.I remember haveing a melt down in the toysrus, because my mother always wanted me to get dolls with blond hair and blue eyes. I was sick of it, because i have blond hair and blue eyes. anywany i got what I wanted. lol

YUCK!!! remember the one with a lever on its back what a rip off!!!

I am making a confession here & now that my sister (C.) got a Baby Alive doll for christmas in 1977 I think & my bother & I got it & beat the crap out off it with plastic bats!!! I don't know why??? Why do boys do what they do. I also threw it out of a second story window, I was bad growing up but I have a 3 year old son now & I am teaching him not to do the things that his daddy did when he was little. Sorry (C.)

Sorry got the date wrong it was in 1980.

I think that the new baby alive dolls are awsome all you people are nuts saying that the dolls look creepy.I think they are cute and life like not creepy!

in 1993 i had my first baby alive..it was black..and the hair was all messed up in curls..i had to brush them out..

my mom had one and gave it to me when i was little

I had the one in the picture and like every1 else said the poop would dry up in her so i always took a wettened q-tip and stuck it up her butt lol. It help a little but man did it smell.

Wanted one of these dolls so bad! For Christmas, my friend Lydia got one but I didn't:(

Hi i`m 8 and iwant that doll bad

That food tasted good. I can still taste it when I think about it.

1991 Back in Vermont during first grade, my friend Sheena had a baby alive and I thought it was so cool I asked my mom for one. It was fun to mix the jelly like food and she drank like a real baby :) We were looking for a baby doll today for a four year old and their facial features are so exaggerated. But the new one talks. Her dad didn't buy it because of the eyes. We got the crawl, fall and cuddle doll instead.

hi again does any body have one of these?

I love this Doll! All the other Baby Alive do not compare at all. you can never duplicate an Awesome toy from the 80's. I'm going to buy the original for keep sake! Ha :>)

the original 80's baby Alive was Awesome. I miss that toy. her hair was not plastic and she actually did something. I'm buying another one just for keep sake! lol...you can't duplicate an Awesome toy from the 80's...

I had a baby alive when I was 9 or 10 years old. My baby ran of batteres. My brother and his friend cut it open. I was so sad. Some one had gave it to me. My mom did not have the money to buy one. I would like to find one to put with my other dolls

I like the old baby alive better than the newer 1

plz anyone have one i can get for free!PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was the knock-off version "Baby All-Gone"? That was also made by Kenner,the same company who made Baby Alive. Kenner is defunct now, and they made a new version of Baby All Gone.

hey im looking for one really bad

where can i find the original baby alive

Omg again i want this doll back to.. i had her since the 1980's too and she was thrown away by accident with my baby talk doll.. so if anyone can let me know where i can purse and afro american one.. i'd appreciate it.. my email is takeeassheis@yahoo.com

woa, my mom had this doll. I'm 12 and have baby alive learns to potty. I asked her (My mom) about the recall and she said that the others didn't take care of it. Oh well. I love mine. I bought her on sale for 6$. she is african american. yay! I wish my mom still had hers.

I had a baby alive doll when I was little and I still have her but she's packed away at my grandma's house. I got the battery operated one for my birthday one year and was so happy. I never had any problems with my doll. When I fed her the food, I made sure she was flushed out really good so I wouldn't get bugs or maggots in her. I hope to give her to my daughter if I ever have one. I have 2 boys so she wouldn't be much use. She was so fun to play with.

I had a couple of baby alive's when I was young approximately 32 years ago and when one wee'd she got a rash, can any one enlighten me As to what year that addition came out ??

Yes, I've seen Baby Alive's around but based on all of these maggot stories I don't really want one. Although, I will agree with some of the comments above the newer one is just scary. Who knows anyone with eyes that big? I mean maybe my cousin, but really?

i have these black twin dolls that i got when i was about 8 years old they drink a bottle and pee. they are now 23 yrs old but i don't know who they were made by and i can't find another like them. they have ringlet wirey black hair and had a twin stroller not sure if they came with it though

I love my baby alive i wish i still had her, a neighbor teenager rolled over her neck with a bicycle nd exposed the tube in her neck i was devasted, im still looking for an black baby alive to this day, the kind they had in the 80's

omg! this was the first doll i prayed for , and begged n begged and waited and waited and i remember praying soo hard when i was 9 yrs old and i got her,( i remember how much i believed in god after i got her lol) , i remember the little packets of food , and it getting sried up inside , im 36 n i remember those days clearly. The ones they make now looks so ugly.

I bought a new african american baby alive on ebay im so happy, it brings back so many good memories.

And other is called "Baby is died"

i think this baby alive will be a perfect gift for a 4 year old girl. i want it for her. she will surely love this toy.

I had one of these when I was a little girl and I loved her! I have two little boys now and I have just been reminded how wonderful our "special" toys were as kids...good memories

I received the much coveted baby alive in the 70's. I had wanted her so bad. When I saw her under the tree on Christmas morning, I was ecstatic. From what my mom says, they watched me tear open the wrappings, mix the food. . .only to cry, "mommy, my baby alive is dead." As I recall, they replaced it and I do remember playing with her but I think the magic was lost. My daughter just asked for one today. . .too bad the new one's look so creepy with their big eyes. . .but I'm sure there will be one under our tree this year--I hope they've improved their quality control in the last 40 years!

I got a baby alive for Christmas one year and I loved her. The new ones are weird looking.

I had one after seeing all those commercials and daddy finally giving in. Daddy paid $20 back then, I thought he was going to have a heart attack. He survived and I loved my baby alive. I was at the thrift store today and picked up a 1990 baby alive doll for .99. Bought batteries and I was surprised she works. Go figure.

i have 5 baby alive and this chirstmas i might have 7 or 8 the new one are really fun. I LOVE THE NEW BABY ALIVES THERE FUN

where the maggots comin out or te old baby alive or the new ones

Im 10 and I just got one 4 xmas wen I was 5 or 4 I got da third one I was so happy!!! But I didnt know how 2 shutitup!!! I think I threw it and got mad so it skipped wen it taked then wen I was feeding her water went into her holes for taking and she never taked again I was devastated wen I had 2 watch my parents throw it out I cried so bad!!! I wish I got 2 play wit da original cause my mom told me how much fun she had wit hers!!! Wit my new one wich is so pretty and I love her eyes ill try 2 be alot more careful!!!

OMG!! I wanted one of these for so long and then finally got one! But mom wouldn't buy more diapers so I had to feed it over the bathtub due to it's instant poop action, LMAO!! The ones they have nowadays are so ignorant looking. Then my brother came along and the toy baby alive no longer mattered!

i had a baby alive when i was5 now my daughters have the new to clean the doll out hot water every meal

Are you interested in buying coin operated horses or spring rocking horses??? They are sold on Ebay. Most spring horses are made by Blazon, Wonder, Flexible Flyer, and Radio Flyer. Feel free to buy as many as you like. Good luck!!! :) Ebay account required.

I LOVED mine! It's still in a box at my parents' house. Doesn't work anymore and her hair is "interesting" to say the least. I don't remember mine having any sort of lever though. It took batteries. I carried that thing all over the place. Are the ones that took batteries newer? I'm almost 42. The new ones are CREEPY!

I bought the new (2014) Baby Alive Surprises doll and she's so cute. The food doesn't get stuck if you make sure to rinse her out with water after feeding. I found a wet and wiggles baby alive in a thrift store and she works great. I think they're adorable dolls

i got a baby alive 1990 and she's so cute but the story is she won't move her mouth and i got the original box to her with the food i bought, an extra food but can't feed her cause the mouth antn moving but she's in excellent condition an still cute! but i have also a 1995 juice n cookies doll baby alive she works! original box with everything asking 100 for her excellent condition bought extra pampers an tz's

I got my Baby alive back in the 80s and my daughter just pulled her hair piece right of her head. My Sister lost most of the pieces like the spoon and plate and bottle. but she still has her original outfit.

I want one I had the little black one when I was child my cousin broke it.. can't find it no where beside eBay and it doesn't work :/

I had one a month after it broke but then I got a new one that has a thing in the back of her head so the food doesn't get stuck thank you hazbro

This doll is now creepy looking her hair is part of her head u can't brush it or play with her anymore lookingnlike that

How much are these things now I have one and it's still in the box

Kira: The value of a Baby Alive doll depends on a lot. They first came out in 1973, by Kenner, and were loaded with accessories. By 1979, they were made by Politoy. In the 1990s to present, by Hasbro. Check out eBay. That's got dozens of Baby Alive dolls. It'll give you an idea what others are selling or auctioning for. The 1973/74 doll should run in excess of $50, if in good shape, with box, paperwork and most to all accessories.

I have a confession. I am the offending older brother of a younger sister whose Baby Alive doll was heartlessly destroyed by me about 40 years ago. It was not spoken of until we recently had a fight and that was something she threw in my face. It's been a couple of weeks and we're still not talking. I feel absolutely horrible about it. I googled Baby Alive, looked at the precious faces of those dolls before I broke down and sobbed like I never have before in my life. I would like to make restitution to my sister and get her another Baby Alive just like the one she had.
