Is there anything you wished you’d done in your baby’s first year?

Question

Like taken certain photos/videos, done certain activities, etc?

Answer

I wish I had worried less about her sleep and realized that she’d just naturally figure it out eventually and gotten sleep however we could. I know that’s probably not what you meant, but. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I wish I had asked for others to take pictures of me. I have hundreds of pics of my husband and baby and like 10 of me and baby. 😢😢

Answer

Not something I regret, but I am SO GLAD I took those monthly photos of him with his weight & a few of his favorite things at that age. He’s 2.5 now and I love when they pop up in my photo memories. I keep meaning to get them framed up all together to put in his room. (And I should add, I was not good about taking them on time - sometimes it would be a week or so after his actual “birthday,” but it doesn’t matter now I just love that I have them)

Answer

Downloaded the Wonder Weeks app sooner! Gosh it gave so much more perspective to help us help baby

Answer

I wish I would have kept up with her baby book rather than have have information and dates of milestones scattered between my phone and pieces of paper I stuffed in it. My notes app is mostly her baby book😭

Answer

I regret not doing a hands and feet print. And also stopping breastfeeding when I went back to work, her milk intake drastically reduced when we started solids one month later so I wish I’d stuck it out, I didn’t realise it would get easier soon.

Answer

I don't know what it's called in english, but I really really wanted to do lifesaving baby swimming lessons as soon as possible...but due to covid no center would do this.

Answer

I wish I asked for more help.. it's not that I felt like I couldn't ask but I just wanted to "do it all" but you need breaks too!

Answer

I have tons of photos of my babies... but I'm not on them 🤦‍♀️ so I have some photos with my children, but I wish I had more

Answer

I wish I pumped on the weekends once I went back to work.
