Tips as a 2nd time mom ❤️

All are my opinion but you’re welcome to disagree / add your own tips. Everyone is different!

~ Bottle warmer is a waste of money. Literally only used mine maybe 5 times max.

~ LUVS are my favorite go to diapers. Will never use another brand unless gifted.

~ Wipe warmer & Bottle Sterilizers are a waste of money!

~ Do a diaper raffle at your baby shower! I promise you, you won’t need to buy diapers until baby is 6+ months old.

~ You don’t need to buy all those special baby laundry soaps, pacifier wipes, or anything like that. The Laundry soap you use works just fine. Pacifier wipes are a waste of money. Just wash it in the sink with water and mild soap if needed.

~ Pacifier clips are a MUST

~ You won’t need to buy blankets or stuffed animals you’ll be gifted way more than you need.

~ don’t cheap out on breastpumps

~ first 5 year book for baby is my favorite. I love to write in it when I find myself bored.

~ the app FreePrints allows 85 free prints a month + shipping costs I believe. The pictures are delivered right to your door.

~ The hospital will give you stuff so make sure to have another bag or extra room in your bag.

~ Your baby will grow out of that bassinet by the time they’re 3-6 months old. I recommend getting a pack and play!
