Birthing babies ain't easy. The first time around, I think I was a bit conservative. The next time around, I intend to get a bit of the pampering all new mommies deserve. No more cutting corners or being plain old cheap. There were alot of things I decided to "do without" and now that I've BTDT (been there, done that), I know what I need and what I want. For the most part, the two are interchangeable here. Anything that adds some convenience (or at least the appearance of it) to Motherhood is at the top of my list!
Look for separate posts soon that explain why these are my second-time-around Mommy essentials.
A few of the things I wish I'd had the first time around:
- Slings, slings, and more slings! (who knew?)
- Swaddlebees All-in-one Diapers in assorted colors (3 dozen), or
- Swaddlebees Pocket Diapers
- Diaper sprayer
- Bosom Baby Nursing Pillow in Turquoise
- Nursing necklaces
- Nursing tank tops/camis
- Nursing shirts like this one
- Nursing dress
- Another nursing dress/nightgown
- Baby monitor
- Diaper bag for me
- A messenger bag for daddy
- Patemm changing pads (kinaban &/or jack martin, large with pockets)
- Belly Band
