MY TOP 8 NEWBORN TIPS 👶🏼🍼

Start putting on diaper cream preventatively- don’t wait for them to get a rash! Their newborn skin is so sensitive and it can happen quick

If you’re breastfeeding- put on nipple butter PREVENTATIVELY- could save a lot of uncomfortableness (I love Earth Mama)

If you have more than one story to your house, do a little diaper changing station on every floor!

Buy only double zipper sleepers- makes it sooo much easier to change them with just legs out so they don’t get cold being undressed

If you are breastfeeding/pumping, instead of washing your pumps after every single use, stick them in the fridge every other time or so instead of washing to cut wash time in half!

Try a sleep sack with arms before a swaddle! If that works, then you won’t have to have a difficult transition off of swaddles once they start rolling

The baby carrier feels difficult at first but once you get the hang of it it’s your BEST 👏🏼 FRIEND 👏🏼 (we use it a year later still)

It’s more cost efficient to just buy carrier instead of a wrap also. The wraps only held my daughter for a very short time even though she was a preemie. They slide down and don’t hold tight/in place. Doesn’t feel very secure to me 🤷🏼‍♀️
