Gosh it's so sad that lovely youtubers apologize beforehand in case their opinions offend people. Gosh some people are such trolls who can't just enjoy a free video without sharing their negative comments.
Lily201186 thats exactly what i wanted to say... so sad that she has to say a disclaimer every few seconds because dumb people wont get it if she only told once... or just shared her experiences without any disclaimers... #offendedbytheinternet
I'm 18 but I work at a daycare and I take care of babies from 6 weeks to a year. It's nice to know what products work, and what doesn't- so I can help the new parents
This video was so helpful to me. I am 29 weeks and recently started frantically researching what I will need and what will be useless. I love that you aren't about the name brand high tech stuff especially if it didn't work for you. Baby stuff can get pricey as it is so want to make sure we invest in the right "equipment." Thank you!
So glad to hear that Babywise is still around. I used it 21 yrs. ago and it saved my sanity as a mom. The "experts" would tell me don't put your baby on a schedule. They were wrong. My babies were much happier on a schedule. Now my babies are 21, 19, 16, and 15 and they are still happy. Enjoy motherhood! Congratulations!
This is literally what I think every time I'm about to shop for my baby (8 months pregnant now). All the baby stuff looks so comfy and I want it for myself 😂
I've never seen the zip up ones in stores, and I'm definitely going to tell my mom about the swaddle thing. My baby sister gets her little hands out so quickly! My mom will definitely appreciate it
I just had a baby boy on Jan 20th and I completely agree in regards to the baby carrier, the Breastfriend and the swing. I was recommended the Breastfriend by a friend and because I had a c-section (Baby was breached) the support it gave me was amazing, something the Boppy totally lacks. The baby carrier I use on a daily basis so much that my husband purchased a 2nd one for him to wear. I have the Graco Swing (basically the same motion as the one you have) and we love it! Your little one is beautiful and congrats!!! Much love from Arizona
My son is 13 months, it's so true when they say they grow up too fast! When you get a chance I would love to see your take on organizing baby clothes and their room in general! I just organized my sons clothes but I love your ideas. Congrats momma 💙
I prefer the outfits with the buttons because with the zipper ones I find you have to take off the whole thing and with the buttons you only have to unbutton the bottom for a diaper change
I'm due with my first baby (boy!) in May and I've been waiting for this video! I had to take a look at my registry after watching this and remove some things and add others. I'm mostly excited to hear about a baby carrier that works so well and is inexpensive!! The ergobaby is $180 and I had it on my registry. Seems crazy expensive to me. So thank you for putting this together!!
Brittany, Carter is adorable, and he looks like Ryan to me. He has your blonde coloring though. He looks like a very happy baby. You must be doing all the right things! TFS
hey brittany, i watched so many newborn must haves video but i found yours the best! i almost bought everything what you suggested for my baby... I cannot thank you enough for suggesting the book Baby Wise!! It helped me sooo sooo much. Honestly no other video had mentioned this book. Cannot thank you enough to make so many mother's life easier
Don't toss the boppy! I agree! I had a tiny, terrible nurser. After a week home with her I also ordered the breast friend and used it exclusively until Abby was about four and a half months old. But when I hit fiveish months it magically worked wonders and it is still super comfortable for us now at 13 months. We basically used it for sitting support until that time.
I'm not pregnant and way past my prime to have babies. Just love watching your video and get some joyous peeks at baby Carter. Great information though! Love Ryan at the end of the videos too. Great job Brittany!
Did you even have a baby?! you look amazing!! I'm 24wks pregnant with my first and I'm so grateful for your playlist and videos like this. Thank you so much I'm def. ordering some of these things for my baby boy.
Loved the daddy clip and baby!! My baby days are over, my kids are 11&14, I loved and used almost 90% of the same products that you mentioned you liked, swing life saver, zip up stuff, baby wise, massages, only thing I did not know about was the supplement. You are so blessed with a happy healthy perfect baby, lots love and kisses, It is hard work to be a good mommy.
+Bunnychickenkitty101 thank you so much that is so sweet of you :) I cannot wait to be a mother I always wanted it and now at 29 I'm getting married this year and so can start a family right after :)
I purchased the baby carrier as my son just wants to be held all the time. You have no idea how much this has helped me feel a little normal! Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙌🏼🙏🏼💗
You are my favourite of all the mom youtubers. Straightforward in starting the topics, logical but not wordy throughout, fun at the end. I would definitely recommend you to my friends. Thanks wise lady!
This was brilliant! Thank you. So much good info. I've bookmarked this video for my daughter. She's not expecting at the moment, but this will be very useful for when she is. Great video as always : )
GIRRRRRRRL YES! The zip up onesies are amazing! My son is 8 months and a squirmy wormy! He lives in those too. And I really wanted to love those hip cute wrap carriers, but they were just so impractical! We use the same one you have!
I love wearing my baby to be honest. It was a gift (my favorite) and it has saved us a lot of space while traveling since we could literally roll it up and put it in his diaper bag! We got a Fisher Price rocker with music and that is still working for us our son is 5 months. My breast friend pillow was better than the boppy also to be honest! We used the boppy lounger and the boppy pillow to make a thing we like to call "The Throne" lol running water faucet noise off of TH-cam is what saved us when he was under 2 months! It worked instantly! Thank you so much for this video! I love watching every type of video you make. Very helpful whatever the topic may be. Please don't stop making them.
I love you videos! I'm 23 and I don't think that I'm going to have a baby in the next years, but I just love your video sooo much! I want to save them all so that I can watch them again in 5 or maybe even 10 years :P
Well done! I wholeheartedly agree with the zip up sleepers, swaddles, swing (I too had a mamaroo and never once got baby to sleep in it) and carrier (baby was never comfy in the Tula and I don't know how people make those wraps work!!). Sometimes the simplest items really are the best!
Your opinion is the one I can trust most on basically everything. Your tips have shaped my cleaning and skincare routines. I'm already imagining myself purchasing these products when I get my first baby 10 years from now. 👶
I have just discovered your videos and channel at 9 months pregnant with my first. I know this video is old but I had to comment. First, this video makes me happy bc I bought many of these products. As you said all babies are different but hopefully many of these will work for my baby. Two, I love the candid dad moments at the end of your videos. It really sets you apart from all the other mom vloggers on TH-cam and theyre hillarious. Definitely looking forward to seeing and watching more of your videos.
girl, getting dressed only gets harder! if you think dressing a little newborn is difficult wait until they can roll, sit up, crawl, and even run away from you! lol But agreed 100% on the zip ups, they are lifesavers.
This video made me smile. My son is going to be 1 in a few weeks and omg the newborn days, I don't miss them! Your suggestions are all spot on :) I give all my new mom friends a ton of zippered sleepers.
I love all your videos. Even though I'm 21 and don't plan on having kids for a few more years at least,I plan on coming back to all your baby videos for future reference(:
Its so great to see you guys settled in with your new baby! I couldn't imagine what its like to have such a big lifestyle change like that! You guys are doing amazing!
I am so incredibly happy you're using Babywise!!!!! I've used their method with both of my kids (now ages 5 and 2), and they're still fantastic sleepers and two of the happiest kids I know! I HIGHLY recommend the other books in the series. They're so incredibly helpful. I don't feel like I'm just floundering around trying to figure things out. Can't say enough good things about them!
I swear by the Baby Wise book series! Both our children started sleeping 12 hrs a night after they were a few months old. There are several books in the series as your children grow. We were complimented so often by strangers whenever we would go to restaurants or just out in public. Those books/classes were so invaluable. (our church did classes on the Baby Wise)
You saved me one, I was looking at the tula carrier but now I will look into other ones ! Our babies are so alike in what they like ! Can't live without more to love swaddle, zipped onesies and bio Gaia!
For the jammies - our twins are 3.5 now and I still recommend the full zip jammies for them. They don't bust out of snaps or get bothered by buttons if they sleep on their stomach - they are very active sleepers now - and you may still need some quick changes as they get older until you potty train. Also, the zip up jammies will allow you to put them on backward if your child gets into a phase where they want to undress... and pull off their diapers. File that last tip away for when the time comes.
You need to look for Velcro booties!! There are a couple different brands that are big goumikids and zutano!!! Our baby didn't wear socks for like the first several months - they kept falling off and it was so annoying!!! These booties stay on and come in different material for warmer and colder weather!!!
LadyInTheTree it isn't recommended babies wear booties or shoes as it can damage their foot growth. Onesies are the greatest option to keep feet warm :)
I don't have any babies but i'm sooo obsessed with your videos. I literally just found your channel a day ago and i'm just OBSESSED with your video carter is too sweet.
Psychoanalytical87 You can't be "genetically slim" lol. She most likely has very fast metabolism which is very beneficial in not gaining too much weight during pregnancy. But, metabolism rates can run in families, so you were kind of half right.
Carter looks so much like his dad! :) My kids are all teens and older but I've been invited to about a half a dozen baby showers for co workers and your recommendations made picking out gifts easy peasy!
Thank you so much for this video! I recently became a Mom to my sweet baby boy on April 27 and love your honesty and helpful tips.I have purchased the swaddle and probiotic drops and I am in your debt! They work like a dream! I hope you can do another series as Carter continues to grow and go through his various stages :)
Yes, agree, especially with baby wise. Helped so much! Also, if you travel, take the swing! My kids wouldn't sleep in their pack and play but would sleep in hotels if I brought their beloved swing. 😉Carter is such a cutie!
VasseurBeauty Glad it's going better for you. Thank you for you're honesty too. I think so many mothers put on that really braves face when actually it's normal not for it to go smoothly. It can't be - the body changes and the stitches etc combined with the lack of rest time.
HI!!! I just want to say, don't swear off wraps and the tula just yet!! look into woven wraps. There is a similar learning curve to them but it is so worth it!!! plus, they come in lots of pretty colors so they are a great accessory. the plus about woven wraps are their longevity and versatility. as for the Tula, it will come in more handy later, but you could also look into kinderpack or ergo.
My #1 product that I recommend to people is the AngelCare monitor. I agree with you regarding the wraps, at least the stretchy ones. Too much time wasted figuring it out! Also, your precious baby looks just like your husband.
I wish they had a lot of these products when my kids were little, especially the swing that you have. When my grandson was little, my daughter used the Boppy and you're right about that space. Carter is so adorable!! Thanks for sharing!
I'm 7 months pregnant and this video HELPED ME SOOOO MUCH! Thank you so much for your opinion and tips, I've saved so much money it's crazy! Thank you again!
love these essentials! I had my 2nd baby this past Christmas Eve and wanted some ideas for better products this time around. I found the infantino carrier and the exact zip up sleeping thing today at a consignment shop after not finding the zip up at baby's r us, so excited! my breast friend is by far the one thing I can't live without, friends asked to borrow it and I never let anyone try it out bc I used it to nurse until my son was 2, and I couldn't go even a day without it. hope you're recovering and getting some rest!
Awh! The Anna & eve swaddle is wonderful. Especially when they are first born. My husband and I always joke that it's like a baby straight jacket but it really is helpful!
Interesting choices, I am definitely going to invest in zip up baby onesies, why did I never think of that with my 16 month old? Now 13 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 and definitely agree that some stuff we bought last time was a waste of money but will be interesting to see if baby number 2 likes what our little boy didn't like, such as the swing. So much money we waste! Great video x
Awesome video! I have a 7 week old. ❤ I looove Muslin wraps. Maybe my little one isn't as squirmy? I only ever swaddle when he's on his way to sleepy town though. I was super lucky to be given a Manduca carrier from my sister. Love it! I would be lost without his bouncer! Bubs will usually always fall asleep in it if he's sleepy but fussy.
That swing was the only one that worked for me too!! I remember when I discovered it I was so relieved and excited to find something that actually worked.
Yasmeen Alshafai they are when they have big heads! newborn clothes are fine for my daughter as long as I don't have to put them over her head she basically lives in pjs right now!
OMG we have the same thoughts about baby clothing and swaddling, I regret everyday over the bunch of different useless clothes I bought, where I only use the zipper onesies! And swaddling with muslin blanket, that's a joke to me. By the way I am in so much love with your posts and videos, whenever I see something you posted, I have the biggest smile on my face :) not only because you have a great personality, but also our babies are of the same age (10 days apart)! Love you 😘
for his gas, check what youre eating, dairy, broccoli, beans, etc is all transfered through breastmilk and can irritate their baby stomach. my daughter has horrible gas as well and when i cut out dairy she was like a brand new baby.
thanks for the advice - yes I have cut out dairy completely (not easy to do as I"m sure you know, it's hidden in so many things) and so far I haven't noticed a difference. I think he may be taking in too much air when he feeds due to my oversupply/overactive let down....that's my current theory. I'm like a gas detective at this point haha!
omg the photos of carter ugh i keep talking about carter in each comment i just can't handle the cuteness ! my mom regrets buying some of those products to she is watching this video with me right now btw she loves your videos to !
HA you think dressing an infant is hard? Try putting clothes on a three year old who keeps taking his clothes off because you won't let him wear daddy's underwear and socks to school 😂
Im 14 weeks pregnant, spend most of my days doing research and your videos are so informative! Thank you so much, I love your channel. I really appreciate you! Congrats on your family and always wishing you the best. Im so happy I subbed :D
Aw, I love watching this! Makes me miss that stage so much! My oldest was very fussy and colicky until he was almost a year old. Now that he's 9, I know how much he thrives off a routine. Wish I had known of that book then. You're great at being attentive to Carter's need! LOL at the end! Ryan definitely represents dads everywhere, lol!
I'm going to be a grandma for the first time, and this video is amazing.. thank you so much for all your recommendations they make so much sense. and your baby is adorable!!
I can't take how cute he is! He's getting so big💙 Oh, and I just purchased your skin care line again and I LOVE it! My skin feels so much better and I think you ship faster than any online store.
7 ปีที่แล้ว +3
I still have all of my son's baby stuff. He will be 9 next month. I need to have a yard sale.
I don't have any babies but I'm obsessed with your videos! Carter is too sweet.
Marina Martin Same!
Right?! They're so relaxing
Same here!!
Marina Martin TV my little brothers name is carter
Marina Martin TV same 😂
Gosh it's so sad that lovely youtubers apologize beforehand in case their opinions offend people. Gosh some people are such trolls who can't just enjoy a free video without sharing their negative comments.
Lily201186 thats exactly what i wanted to say... so sad that she has to say a disclaimer every few seconds because dumb people wont get it if she only told once... or just shared her experiences without any disclaimers... #offendedbytheinternet
I'm 18 but I work at a daycare and I take care of babies from 6 weeks to a year. It's nice to know what products work, and what doesn't- so I can help the new parents
well it is diff for everyone....babies are all diff &what may work for hers may not for another
This video was so helpful to me. I am 29 weeks and recently started frantically researching what I will need and what will be useless. I love that you aren't about the name brand high tech stuff especially if it didn't work for you. Baby stuff can get pricey as it is so want to make sure we invest in the right "equipment." Thank you!
I'm 14 and about to be an aunt so I'm binge watching baby videos for her and this is very helpful thankyou
So glad to hear that Babywise is still around. I used it 21 yrs. ago and it saved my sanity as a mom. The "experts" would tell me don't put your baby on a schedule. They were wrong. My babies were much happier on a schedule. Now my babies are 21, 19, 16, and 15 and they are still happy. Enjoy motherhood! Congratulations!
Is there an adult version of the fisher price swing
It looks so comfortable
Stilla Adam for real
This is literally what I think every time I'm about to shop for my baby (8 months pregnant now). All the baby stuff looks so comfy and I want it for myself 😂
I've never seen the zip up ones in stores, and I'm definitely going to tell my mom about the swaddle thing. My baby sister gets her little hands out so quickly! My mom will definitely appreciate it
I just had a baby boy on Jan 20th and I completely agree in regards to the baby carrier, the Breastfriend and the swing. I was recommended the Breastfriend by a friend and because I had a c-section (Baby was breached) the support it gave me was amazing, something the Boppy totally lacks. The baby carrier I use on a daily basis so much that my husband purchased a 2nd one for him to wear. I have the Graco Swing (basically the same motion as the one you have) and we love it! Your little one is beautiful and congrats!!! Much love from Arizona
My son is 13 months, it's so true when they say they grow up too fast! When you get a chance I would love to see your take on organizing baby clothes and their room in general! I just organized my sons clothes but I love your ideas. Congrats momma 💙
I prefer the outfits with the buttons because with the zipper ones I find you have to take off the whole thing and with the buttons you only have to unbutton the bottom for a diaper change
Or you can also get the sleepers that zip from the bottom up...
I'm due with my first baby (boy!) in May and I've been waiting for this video! I had to take a look at my registry after watching this and remove some things and add others. I'm mostly excited to hear about a baby carrier that works so well and is inexpensive!! The ergobaby is $180 and I had it on my registry. Seems crazy expensive to me. So thank you for putting this together!!
Brittany, Carter is adorable, and he looks like Ryan to me. He has your blonde coloring though. He looks like a very happy baby. You must be doing all the right things! TFS
Anita Tate - So true!!
Thank you!!! so many people have been saying he looks just like me but I think as he's growing he's starting to look more like Ryan
hey brittany, i watched so many newborn must haves video but i found yours the best! i almost bought everything what you suggested for my baby... I cannot thank you enough for suggesting the book Baby Wise!! It helped me sooo sooo much. Honestly no other video had mentioned this book. Cannot thank you enough to make so many mother's life easier
cat and Jack footed sleepers are my favorite! They zip from the top so baby isn't getting cold when you change them.
Don't toss the boppy! I agree! I had a tiny, terrible nurser. After a week home with her I also ordered the breast friend and used it exclusively until Abby was about four and a half months old. But when I hit fiveish months it magically worked wonders and it is still super comfortable for us now at 13 months. We basically used it for sitting support until that time.
I'm not pregnant and way past my prime to have babies. Just love watching your video and get some joyous peeks at baby Carter. Great information though! Love Ryan at the end of the videos too. Great job Brittany!

+Bunnychickenkitty101 thank you so much that is so sweet of you :) I cannot wait to be a mother I always wanted it and now at 29 I'm getting married this year and so can start a family right after :)
I purchased the baby carrier as my son just wants to be held all the time. You have no idea how much this has helped me feel a little normal! Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙌🏼🙏🏼💗
I Can't get over how adorable he is❤️. I love the dress you're wearing

I'm 20 and have no need to watch this but here I am enjoying it 😛
same here...i'm almost 19 though...and i feel this is harder than maths lol
Bunny Runner im 22!! i love watching these!!
I'm 19 and I have a 4 month old :)
@cupcake x and @Miichau congratulations and good luck :)
Bunny Runner haha I got pregnant at 20. xD
You saved me one, I was looking at the tula carrier but now I will look into other ones ! Our babies are so alike in what they like ! Can't live without more to love swaddle, zipped onesies and bio Gaia!
Can you do more updated one of these?? So like older ages?
For the jammies - our twins are 3.5 now and I still recommend the full zip jammies for them. They don't bust out of snaps or get bothered by buttons if they sleep on their stomach - they are very active sleepers now - and you may still need some quick changes as they get older until you potty train.

LadyInTheTree it isn't recommended babies wear booties or shoes as it can damage their foot growth. Onesies are the greatest option to keep feet warm :)
I don't have any babies but i'm sooo obsessed with your videos. I literally just found your channel a day ago and i'm just OBSESSED with your video carter is too sweet.
HOW DOES SHE LOOK SO GOOD AFTER HAVING A BABY?!? 😍😍💘
trick is you ARE NOT eating for 2....many just eat not thinkin of what will happen after baby comes...
I think she is naturally/genetically slim. She also eats a very healthy nutritious diet in small portions from what I have seen so far
Psychoanalytical87 You can't be "genetically slim" lol. She most likely has very fast metabolism which is very beneficial in not gaining too much weight during pregnancy. But, metabolism rates can run in families, so you were kind of half right.
Carter looks so much like his dad! :) My kids are all teens and older but I've been invited to about a half a dozen baby showers for co workers and your recommendations made picking out gifts easy peasy!
Hahaha loved the ending! And your baby is so cute Xxxx
Thank you so much for this video! I recently became a Mom to my sweet baby boy on April 27 and love your honesty and helpful tips.I have purchased the swaddle and probiotic drops and I am in your debt! They work like a dream! I hope you can do another series as Carter continues to grow and go through his various stages :)
That onesie is so tiny 😍 hard to think such tiny things become something like us
Yes, agree, especially with baby wise. Helped so much! Also, if you travel, take the swing! My kids wouldn't sleep in their pack and play but would sleep in hotels if I brought their beloved swing. 😉Carter is such a cutie!
Can you do a video on the baby schedule and how you accomplished it
That swing is our saving grace too! We got it as a hand-me-down and he absolutely LOVE it!
The ending was so cute 😊I can tell you're much happier with things compared to your first video you did right after the baby was born. (:
SO TRUE!! The first 4-5 weeks I was not doing well - so thankful things are good now!!
Baby blues! ):
VasseurBeauty Glad it's going better for you. Thank you for you're honesty too. I think so many mothers put on that really braves face when actually it's normal not for it to go smoothly. It can't be - the body changes and the stitches etc combined with the lack of rest time.

I second your thoughts on the Mamaroo. Thankfully, I was gifted one but that thing is useless.
OliviaG85 same here I got it at a gift as well and it really is useless!
OliviaG85 same. We took ours back within the week.
OliviaG85 my mom LOVES mamaroos my baby brother fell asleep in two seconds when he was in it
I know I still keep trying hoping that he'll start to like it more... so far nothing. 5 minutes then fussing
I was honestly shocked that the graco one I was also given is 1000x better.
My #1 product that I recommend to people is the AngelCare monitor. I agree with you regarding the wraps, at least the stretchy ones. Too much time wasted figuring it out! Also, your precious baby looks just like your husband.
thank you so much for all the info. def added this to my important list for a second baby 😊
I wish they had a lot of these products when my kids were little, especially the swing that you have. When my grandson was little, my daughter used the Boppy and you're right about that space. Carter is so adorable!! Thanks for sharing!
His face at the end "mom, help me... dad's being weird again!" Lol
We're thrilled that the Swaddle UP made your MUST HAVE list! x
Where is your top from ?? I love it 😍
Awesome job there new momma! My babies are now 16,14 and 10 years old! You remind me of myself! I agree the baby swing for naps is priceless!!!! 🙌
i don't even have a baby but love your content so much that I watched the whole video 😘
I'm 7 months pregnant and this video HELPED ME SOOOO MUCH! Thank you so much for your opinion and tips, I've saved so much money it's crazy! Thank you again!
where did u get ur shirt? u should do a clothing haul
love these essentials! I had my 2nd baby this past Christmas Eve and wanted some ideas for better products this time around. I found the infantino carrier and the exact zip up sleeping thing today at a consignment shop after not finding the zip up at baby's r us, so excited! my breast friend is by far the one thing I can't live without, friends asked to borrow it and I never let anyone try it out bc I used it to nurse until my son was 2, and I couldn't go even a day without it. hope you're recovering and getting some rest!
Your husband is the funniest!
Awh! The Anna & eve swaddle is wonderful. Especially when they are first born. My husband and I always joke that it's like a baby straight jacket but it really is helpful!
Do you have a link for the nursing tops ?
Interesting choices, I am definitely going to invest in zip up baby onesies, why did I never think of that with my 16 month old? Now 13 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 and definitely agree that some stuff we bought last time was a waste of money but will be interesting to see if baby number 2 likes what our little boy didn't like, such as the swing. So much money we waste! Great video x
AM 15 AND I'm WATCHING THIS 😂
Arwa same except I'm 14
Dellatjuh _ I'm 11
Arwa I'm 9
Arwa I'm 13
Arwa im 12
Awesome video! I have a 7 week old. ❤ I looove Muslin wraps. Maybe my little one isn't as squirmy? I only ever swaddle when he's on his way to sleepy town though. I was super lucky to be given a Manduca carrier from my sister. Love it! I would be lost without his bouncer! Bubs will usually always fall asleep in it if he's sleepy but fussy.
Helpful. If my baby wasn't 20. Lol. Carter is adorable and you look great
That swing was the only one that worked for me too!! I remember when I discovered it I was so relieved and excited to find something that actually worked.
Great video as always! But infants are not the hardest to dress .. wait until he can walk 😂 good luck great mama:D
Yasmeen Alshafai Exactly what I was thinking! Lol
Yasmeen Alshafai yeah wait till you have to chase them down and then u walk away and come back to a naked kids and here we go again HAHA!!!
Yasmeen Alshafai they are when they have big heads! newborn clothes are fine for my daughter as long as I don't have to put them over her head she basically lives in pjs right now!
I totally agree. my baby is 8 month old and I am already having a hard time dressing him. I know it will get worse over time.

OMG we have the same thoughts about baby clothing and swaddling, I regret everyday over the bunch of different useless clothes I bought, where I only use the zipper onesies! And swaddling with muslin blanket, that's a joke to me.
By the way I am in so much love with your posts and videos, whenever I see something you posted, I have the biggest smile on my face :) not only because you have a great personality, but also our babies are of the same age (10 days apart)! Love you 😘
What if there born in summer what kind of clothes do you recommend? For newborns ftm!
Irma Reveles- Lightweight onesies! Easy to wear alone or layer. Snaps on bottom make it easy to change diapers as well.
Your voice is so calm and soothing. You seem to be a well balanced momma. Proud of you. And the blooper at the end tho😂
for his gas, check what youre eating, dairy, broccoli, beans, etc is all transfered through breastmilk and can irritate their baby stomach. my daughter has horrible gas as well and when i cut out dairy she was like a brand new baby.
thanks for the advice - yes I have cut out dairy completely (not easy to do as I"m sure you know, it's hidden in so many things) and so far I haven't noticed a difference. I think he may be taking in too much air when he feeds due to my oversupply/overactive let down....that's my current theory. I'm like a gas detective at this point haha!
oh definitely! i completely forgot about that in the beginning! that was also her issue. My little girl is 6 months old now
thats why i switched after awhile to formula but my supply was goin down because i was just too busy and too stressed...pumping became a chore.
Your baby is very lucky to have you as his mummy, so much useful advice for new parents
The lady with the most beautiful voice is here again😀😀😀😀
omg the photos of carter ugh i keep talking about carter in each comment i just can't handle the cuteness ! my mom regrets buying some of those products to she is watching this video with me right now btw she loves your videos to !
HA you think dressing an infant is hard? Try putting clothes on a three year old who keeps taking his clothes off because you won't let him wear daddy's underwear and socks to school 😂
Ramona Rowan omg I have a hard enough time with an 11 month old.
Ramona Rowan 😂😂😂 my son is 16 month and he turns into the exorcist when I try putting clothes on him. Babies are so much easier to dress in my opinion
For the kid who wants grown up undies, buy the kid size ones ..
SOOO CUTE!! Love the ending!!! He's starting to look more like Ryan but still looks like both of you. Such a cutie!
YOU are my role model ❤️❤️
Im 14 weeks pregnant, spend most of my days doing research and your videos are so informative! Thank you so much, I love your channel. I really appreciate you! Congrats on your family and always wishing you the best. Im so happy I subbed :D
Cater is so cute⭐️
Just an FYI, I love love love the skits at the end with Ryan! So happy for you two!
Girl you're in for a WAKEUP call if you think they get easier to dress 😂😂😂
right my baby was easy when she was lil....now shes crawlin so its a chore lol
Ari Amore oh wait till they're toddlers... they can literally run and hide cause they don't wanna get dressed.
i agree with you haha it isnt that easy forsurw.
I just hope I can put on his diaper before he realize I'm changing his diaper 😒
Sarah Leaman omg I work with a baby who is crawling and sometimes walks and MY GOD I get SO FRUSTRATED
Aw, I love watching this! Makes me miss that stage so much! My oldest was very fussy and colicky until he was almost a year old. Now that he's 9, I know how much he thrives off a routine. Wish I had known of that book then. You're great at being attentive to Carter's need! LOL at the end! Ryan definitely represents dads everywhere, lol!
NAILED IT!! At least dad didn't use actual nails on the swaddle 🙄
I'm going to be a grandma for the first time, and this video is amazing.. thank you so much for all your recommendations they make so much sense.
and your baby is adorable!!
lol, Ryan pretending to be clueless. I bet he's a pro😂
I can't take how cute he is! He's getting so big💙 Oh, and I just purchased your skin care line again and I LOVE it! My skin feels so much better and I think you ship faster than any online store.
I still have all of my son's baby stuff. He will be 9 next month. I need to have a yard sale.
I am OBSESSED with her shirt! It's so cute!!
