Hello, hope you all are doing well and not being affected terribly by the weather. My fellow Texas folks who got hit hard, I pray it’s all better soon. While home the other day I was thinking of a few things that have been great to have since being a new mother to three. There are several which I plan to write a more extended list at some point but for now I wanted to share this 5.
1) A baby carrier such as the Ergobaby Aerloom carrier. I shared the image above showing me wearing it and this image captures multitaking in motherhood. I recently collaborated with them and although this post is not sponsored, I wanted to share because I loved the product. It’s lightweight, comfortable, stylish and lets you be hands free which helps to get things done or just to be able to do certain things with the other siblings.
2) A double stroller with an extension like a buggy board where an one sibling can sit or stand.
3) A spacious diaper bag, preferably a back pack style but if with a bag, an organizer insert is good too. You can carry all the baby essentials like diapers, wipes, formula, breastfeeding cover if breastfeeding, water, juice, snacks and even toys or tablets for siblings.
4) Aquaphor. I like that Aquaphor can be used as a moisturizer for baby and siblings after baths or just to moisturize the skin, it can be used for an irritation diaper rash, and can be used on siblings lips or any part of the body if dry.
5) A great camera and or monitor system. This is a must for me personally with any number of kids at home especially with multiple kids because they’ll be in different areas at different times depending on their ages. They also sometimes nap at different times so having a good monitoring system and or camera so one can watch at any given time gives a little bit of peace of mind in my opinion.
Thank you for reading and please let me know if there are any products you’d add or if familiar with any of these.
