Advice?

Question

Hi! My name is Kalila and my boyfriend and I are expecting our first baby in January. Does anybody have any advice for pregnancy or parenting at a young age?

Answer

My advice is that, start buying stuff in advanced. Start with the small stuff like wipes, diapers, and bath stuff. Trust me it is wonderful having lots of that stuff. I personally started buying onies before I knew the gender. You really only need onies and and sleepers, I mean those cute outfits they are really cute, but you want something easy to put her in, because socks and that cute outfits are a hassle.
     Your baby really does not need fancy baby things. I personally for my baby a swing, a bouncer and that was really it, she didn't need everything because literally they sleep most of the day and night 
     My advice truly is that you will be waking up a lot, it is rough you will get tired and frasturated and it is totally okay to feel you are overwhelmed for a couple of days or even weeks. It is okay to cry, your hormones are literally trying to rebalance out. Do not feel afraid to ask for help, if you have help ask for it and try to take a nap, it makes a big difference to have a two hour nap, then being sleep deprived.

Answer

Get the book “Baby Wise”. It helps a lot. It talks about putting your baby on a schedule. That way you will know when the baby is hungry, tired, needs to be changed, etc. My parents used it and I know others who do. Good luck!
