If you have looked into educational or Montessori-style toys for your child, you have probably come across the Lovevery Play Kit subscription. You may have been curious about the toys or the cost of the subscription. Read my honest review here!
There were some baby products that pregnant me was absolutely convinced she would use every day. And some of those items were almost never touched. Every baby and every momma is different, but these are those items that I hardly (if ever!) used, and what I chose to use instead!
An emergency kit like this one lives in the trunk of your car and contains all sorts of things you might need in a pinch when you are out and about with your baby. It can help you avoid disasters and deal with the messes that come with kiddos.
Preparing for labor and delivery can feel like trying to eat an elephant. Today, I’m going to give advice to the soon-to-be dads out there!
Knowing what a new momma needs is tricky, because every momma is different and every newborn baby is different as well. It can also be difficult for that new mom to know what she needs until the need has past and she is thinking in retrospect. That's where I am now, and thinking back, there are a few things I wish people would have known.
The postpartum period was a strange time for me. I think it's a strange time for pretty much every first time mom. I did a lot of reading to try and prepare, and now I'm sharing things that I learned and did that I actually found helpful in those first few weeks after giving birth.
Perfect baby sleep can be the great white whale of parenting. We went into parenting not knowing anything about baby sleep besides the rule to lay baby down on their back. Now I've got a year of experience under my belt. I'm going to let you know what I did and what worked for us. I'm no expert and this will not work for everyone, but I'm happy with Calvin's sleep.
If you were to ask me the number one thing that I wasn't preparing for when I became a mother, I would say breastfeeding without hesitation.
Despite current COVID-19 restrictions, we still managed to have a happy little birthday party with those in our bubble. This was my very first time throwing a birthday party of any kind, so I was nervous, but I'm proud of how things turned out!
There are hundreds of baby products out there and it can be so overwhelming to try and sort through them all! I'm honestly figuring out all of this mom stuff as I go, but I'm sharing my discoveries along the way!
