Second time mom favorites?

Question

What is your favorite nipple cream & diaper rash cream? I used the lansinoh cream my first pregnancy and it wasn’t my favorite. Has anyone tried the earth mama one? 
Also what is your favorite baby swing? I’m looking for something that isn’t gonna take up too much room.

Answer

Love love love the earth mama one! It also was all natural, so it won’t hurt baby at all. I did wipe it off before feeding, but there’s no chemicals that can harm baby!
I also love the butt paste for diaper cream. It was the only one that kept my son rash free long term!

Answer

I love the earth mama nipple cream. And for diaper rash we always use aquaphor. In the beginning I put a little on with each diaper change. Now that she’s a year and a half I only put it on if I notice any irritation. If you put the cream on each time in the beginning you can prevent diaper rash 100% she never had it when she was an infant!

Answer

I never used a nipple cream even though I breastfed.. I just never had to luckily 🤷🏻‍♀️ but for diaper cream I really loooooooooove the Budrauexs (sure I slaughtered that) butt paste. I get it at target. I’m a nurse so I’m super obsessive about skin breakdown and since day one with my 15 month old son I’ve used it with all diaper changes- he’s never had one rash. I do use it only morning and night ish now and after a bath. 
For swing we have the graco duet connect, it was a gift and it is kind of bulky but it’s very nice and it’s a bouncer too that detaches and you can take it around the house with you. I also have a used mamaroo that my son hated- so I’m glad I didn’t pay full price for it!

Answer

I have nothing for nipple cream lol 
My favorite diaper rash stuff is aquaphor. If it’s a bleeding rash, I mix aquaphor, triple antibiotic, and hydrocortisone. It works within 2 days. I also like the “magic butt paste” it’s another homemade one and I’m sure you can find the recipe online. And then I like the burtsbees creams. 
I personally don’t care for swings. But I LOVE the fisher price bouncers and if you can find a rock n play. They’re discontinued, but they’re awesome if you come across one. They were removed from stores because of infant deaths. They’re not recommended after baby learns to roll because it’s kind of an awkward shape and baby gets stuck and suffocates.. but for a newborn, they’re fine. Just be smart

Answer

Coconut oil for nipple cream. So much cheaper than anything else, goes on smoother, and safe for both you and baby! 
With diaper cream totally depends on baby. With my oldest butt paste worked the best for clearing up diaper rashes quickly but I also love to have aquaphor on hand.

Answer

I just ordered the earth mama cream. The lanisoh was just ok but I didn’t like the smell. For baby #1 we tried about 10 different rash products and settled on aquaphor so that’s what we will use for this baby.

Answer

Oh and for the swing we will be getting the graco glider.

Answer

I would say on top of nipple cream have a couple of nipple shields. They saved me for a few weeks where my baby wouldn’t latch to my left nipple or when my nipples were so sore that even nipple cream didn’t help. I only used them as needed but they were great

Answer

Earth mama worked great
