- Wouldn't it be nice to get a FULL night's sleep with your 6 week old infant?
Read - On Becoming Baby Wise by Gary Ezzo, M.A. and Robert Bucknam, M.D.
I received this book as a gift at my baby shower. This book is incredible! The information is priceless. I don’t know what I would have done without it. My daughter sleeps throughout the night (straight), and goes down for her naps with NO fussing. I believe no parent should be without it.
- Use this product every time and your child may never have a diaper rash!
A & D Ointment is by far the best diaper rash ointment I’ve ever used! After delivery the hospital provided A& D for us to use during our stay. But when I came home I started to use the stuff I received from the baby shower, since these don’t seal out wetness like A & D, my daughter had a horrible rash. www.myadbaby.com
- If your baby should get a rash, find out what ointment clears it in approximately a day and a half!
I
tried to clear up that awful rash as mentioned above, and the only
thing that worked wonders is a product called Triple Paste, view it at www.sumlab.com . Her rash went away in 1 1/2 days.
- Learn what every baby should have to get a good night's sleep.
I had no idea how crucial it is to give your child a special blanket (security blanket). I
breast feed and another mom mentioned that her kids like the satin
trimmed blankets because it reminds them of nursing since bras are
satiny. I went to Babies R Us and found this beautiful blanket that is satin trimmed and the back side is all satin, the front is short soft fur. The blanket is made by a company called Cocalo.
- Find out what pacifier is the least likely to fall out of your baby's mouth.
I went home from the hospital with a soothie brand pacifier, it’s great but falls out too easily. I registered for an Ortho paci, and she hated them since she was use to the Soothie. I
had problems with the pacifier falling out of her mouth throughout the
day and night until I discovered the pacifier called soft centered by
Gerber. It’s shaped like a light bulb and works wonders. www.gerber.com
- Why this bassinet should be in every parent's home.
I’m so glad that I decided to register for the original co-sleeper bassinet. It
was nice to have her by my side since I had a c-section (I had a
c-section because she was expected to be 10 lbs 1 oz., and I’m a small
girl.). It converts to a playpen and is portable. So, I didn’t have to get a pack n play or travel bed. www.armsreach.com

- How to save over $1400 on diapers!
I use cloth diapers on my daughter. When we go out we use disposables. I launder them myself. It’s actually pretty easy. I use All – free and clear detergent,
it’s just as safe as the other brand but cheaper, I cup of baking soda
from the warehouse club and white vinegar (the equiv. of what you’d put
in a downy ball). The vinegar and baking soda corrects the pH of the diapers. Then I hang them outdoors to dry. I purchased my Chinese pre-fold package diapers from www.softclothbunz.com
- Find out how to burn 500 calories a day after delivery, everyday for a year!
I gained 50 lbs with my daughter. I lost 37 lbs within the first couple of weeks just by breastfeeding.
- Regular nose plungers never seem to get all the gunk out, find out what product is a must have for stuffy noses.
www.nosefrida.com This product is wonderful! If
you’ve ever tried to use a nose plunger, only to find out that you’ll
pull your hair out before you get a booger, then you know what I mean.
- What I did during pregnancy to have a healthy (no jaundice, no complications, apgar score of 9) 9lb 6oz baby!
- I gave up caffeine, no coffee L. But, I replaced it with a chocolate Carnation instant breakfast every morning before breakfast. CIB has two times the protein of an egg and two times the calcium of a yogurt. Sometimes I’d have one before bed too. Once I drank the CIB, I’d have a pack or two of Quaker instant oatmeal, and fruit. I made sure to eat the recommended amounts of protein, calcium etc.. everyday.
- Lots of rest! I never felt guilty about sleeping, I knew my body needed it.
- My husband cleaned so that I wouldn’t breathe in the chemicals, and still does since I breastfeed.
- I never missed a doctor prescribed prenatal vitamin, which I took before bed. Sometimes, if you take them in the morning you get nausea.
- I went to every doctors visit.

5 minutes removes cradle cap. Tip from American Baby Magazine.
- Breast feeding tip: Ameda brand breast shells along with pure lanolin ointment relieves soreness.
- Breast pump tip: Playtex brand dual electric breast pump sold at Babies R Us goes for under $99 works great! In my opinion you don’t need to spend almost $300 to extract the milk.
- Pregnancy clothing tip: go to the Salvation Army or something thrifty in your area. I bought the cutest clothes made by Motherhood. You’re only going to wear them for 6 months or less. My friend paid top dollars for hers and I hate to say this but my clothes were so much cuter. I miss my pregnancy clothes.
- Baby wipes tip: I actually put my daughter’s changing station in the main bathroom since we have the room. I wash her up with a soapy washcloth, instead of wasting money on wipes. Make your own baby wipes, various recipes online.
