I want to share 6 things that are commonly done but that you don’t HAVE to do with your baby! None of these things, I think, are good or bad. It’s just to spark your interest so you can research things on your own and see if they are right for you and your family or not!
1. Swaddle
Before having my babies I just thought everyone swaddled their babies and I didn’t think anything of it! But you actually don’t have to swaddle them and some people will argue that it’s better for them not to be. I never swaddles either of my babies and it’s great because then you don’t have to transition them out of a swaddle when they start rolling.
2. Use baby containers
Baby containers are things like swings, bouncers, rockers, and baby exercisers. We never used any baby containers and it saves a lot of space in your house! They can also hinder your babies developmental milestones.
3. Potty train around 2/3 years old
You can actually start to potty train your babies from birth! It isn’t exactly “potty training” but if you haven’t heard of the term, look up- Elimination communication!
4. Use a crib
None of my babies have ever slept in a crib 😊
5. Use a baby bath
Baby baths can be a waste of money and space! All you need to do is lay down a towel on the bottom of your tub for some padding and then fill up the tub with shallow water!
6. Early bedtime
Most people think their baby or kid needs to go to bed around 7/8 pm but that doesn’t have to be the case if that doesn’t work for your lifestyle! Many families around the world go to bed later, around 10pm.
