Things I've Learned

•  When it comes to diapers, generic brand diapers do not make good overnight diapers!

•  If you tear during delivery and are sore and sensitive down there, pads will stick to your stitches and hurt! I used some of Graig’s Pampers Sensitive diapers as a pad! I just laid it in my undies and it was gentle and padded so I wasn’t in so much pain. Plus it did an awesome job at absorbing unlike a pad where it just rests on top. (I know TMI).

•  Cloth diapers and receiving blankets make the best burp cloths!

•  Dry baby blankets on low heat setting otherwise they will burn and no longer be soft.

•  Tummy Drops, Gripe Water, and Tylenol are a must have in your medicine cabinet!

• It’s better for your child to come from a broken home than to grow up in one! If you’re relationship isn’t working there’s no need to stay with a man because of a baby. Your child feeds off your energy; when you’re sad the child is sad.
