I don’t fold clothes



Laundry, everyone's least favorite chore. So how do we make it less painful for everyone involved. Pro tip: stop folding your kids laundry. You heard me. Just stop. I do not fold a single piece of my kids laundry. Nice clothes and shirts get hung up and everything else simply gets thrown into a drawer. Sure, I could spend time folding all of their tiny clothes and put them away nicely, but why? First off, I have a three year old who likes to empty out her drawers. Secondly, who is gonna know? 

We spend so much time doing things because we think it's what we are supposed to do. Sure, in a perfect world maybe my kids rooms would be clean with pristinely folded and put away clothes.  But this is real life, not a Better Homes and Gardens magazine. Please tell me what harm it is going to do if you don't fold your kids clothes. Go ahead, I'll wait. A little wrinkle here and there? Okay that will go perfectly with food stains and marker. 

Don't worry about folding the damn clothes, just throw them in the drawer and get on with your life. No one will know, I promise.

Tummy Time

  If you pay attention to what you read on the internet or to the marketing geniuses, I am sure you think tummy time is the end all be all of good newborn parenting. Let me tell you a secret, I didn’t do it and my kids are just fine. No floppy necks, not late bloomers, they’re perfectly normal (physically lol) children. Tummy time was never easy for us. My first would just fall asleep if we tried tummy time and my second would scream. So I just didn’t do it.  Now obviously don’t take my advice over your pediatricians advice please, I am not a doctor. I’m just telling you that there are other ways of strengthening your babies neck and a lot of it I think they do on their own. Tummy time is a pretty recent thing parents have been told to do but you don’t see a whole lot of old people out their struggling to hold their heads up.  Let's talk ways to avoid tummy time but still ensure your baby is building those muscles. My personal favorite is sitting them on my lap facing me....

Should You Buy It?

  Alright moms, is anyone else tired of reading reviews online that are vague or claim you'll use this item all the time but you get it at your baby shower and then don't touch it? Yeah, same. I always want to know the real life situations. All bottles say they're easy to clean and have the perfect flow and blah blah blah. I want to hear from moms like me what isn't a complete waste of money. So far, these are my favorites.  1. Baby Merlin Sleep Suit   https://amzn.to/3A4nvyK I truly do not know what kind of magic they put in this sleep suit but I think it saved my life. For reference, neither of my children liked to sleep as babies. I wish I had discovered this with Charlie because she only slept 2-3 hours a time at most until she was 9 months old. Emma is quickly following in her footsteps and let me tell ya, I am TIRED. So I did what anyone would do and made a quick google search that led me to sleep training but I am weak and can't bring myself to sleep train. N...

Mom Cozy or Willow?

Image
                          The world of wearable breast pumps is way more intense than I ever knew. People are very invested in their pump and it's kind of culty if I am being honest. Willow people think theres no option but the Willow, Elvie people only talk crap about the Willow, and Mom Cozy people just want to save a buck. (Hey don't be offended that was me too) So price wise the Mom Cozy is by far the most affordable. One pump is about $75 on Amazon so a set would run you about $150. This is for the S12, newer pump. The Willow and the Elvie both run between 400-500 depending on the promotions going on at the time.  Before this last week I would have told you hands down to get the Mom Cozy and not to even think about the other two. The Mom Cozy worked for me from October until now with very minimal issues. Now I will say this should not be your all the time pump. I have an at home pump that I use for fully emp...
