I want to shout out to all the moms that have to do laundry outside of their homes, and also painfully hand wash to keep stains out.

@jmawhite6761 6 лет назад

I don't remember much of a routine, especially with my first. But strategies---those I used. My #1 was breastfeeding on demand, so no bottles to clean and always something to offer a fussy baby no matter where we were. Plus, a really tiny diaper bag because, again, no bottles. We used cloth diapers that my mom bought us because we had no money at all, and the velcro diaper covers were a godsend. I also used a Dr. Sears baby sling with my first because he pretty much cried for the entire "fourth trimester", so I strapped him to me when I did any housework or when we went out. Also, I figured out the places with the best accommodations for nursing moms--I'm all for nursing in public, but he would get so distracted by all the people, it helped to have quiet places to feed him. At any rate, he survived--he's 24 now. Enjoy her--it goes SO fast!

Jill White love your method!

Babywearing (I LOVE ring slings for the first year, happy baby happy mama), cloth diapering, breastfeeding mom here too. For on-the-go cloth wipes, a small squirt bottle with a drop of baby shampoo works great to wet the wipes! Just toss in that wet bag when done. Also exclusively breastfed baby poo is water soluble... so easier to clean! And modern cloth diapers are much less likely to have poo-splosions. 😉 I'm a mom of 4 (8,6,4 and 1)

@TheRealUserCommenter 5 лет назад

No routine for us either. He’s five now. But it was constantly babywearing. Nursing on demand. Until we came across issues and ended up mix feeding. With a reflux Bub he couldn’t take a whole bottle. So he would have a quarter bottle here. A half bottle there. Very expensive way of feeding, but I basically just followed his cues. If he was hungry, I fed him. Just gotta make sure you don’t over feed with formula. Breastfeeding though? Boob is ALWAYS the answer. We also loved our slings, especially the waterproof one that I often wore in our pool or the shower. For General day to day stuff, we just used a woven wrap. My koala baby was attached to my back for the first four years. Because sometimes you just gotta get shit done. I will say that not everyone has the luxury to pack lightly. I didn’t drive and when I was FF, I had to pack bottles, multiple changes of clothes, medications. That’s for a trip to the shopping centre (mall). Luckily I had a glorified shopping trolley (stroller) to carry my luggage. 😂😂

@theamazingkate 6 лет назад

I'm a new mom too-- mine is a few weeks younger than yours. The best trick I have found is to make a crib lasagna! Basically, you layer a sheet, a wet pad (or waterproof mattress pad), a sheet, a wet pad, etc. ending with a sheet on top. I use 4 sheets and three wet pads between them. In the night, when my daughter spits up/has a blowout, it makes cleanup SO much easier! You just take off the top sheet and wet pad, chuck them in the laundry bin, clean up the baby, and voila! What would normally be a fairly annoying disruption at 3am and take a long time to fix, is easy peasy and takes less than 5 minutes. The best part is that you don't have to turn the lights on and wake up your little one!! We've only had to take advantage of this a few times, but man oh man, it's been a lifesaver! I did it by nightlight and my daughter never really woke up-- nothing a bottle wouldn't fix. :) We also do this on our changing table using smaller wet pads (or a puppy pad in a pinch!) and covers.

@MaxTheCorgs 6 лет назад

You always post your Saturday videos right before my 2 year old’s nap, so we watch them together and about five minutes in she’s usually out cold. Thank you! 😆

@mrsyvoriedecena 6 лет назад

Max TheCorgs awww that’s so cute!

@mfg18pink 6 лет назад

Puppy pads! We used them for the first 3 months on the changing table!

@HannahRainbow88 6 лет назад

Missybrown we used changing pads that we got for an absolute steal in Aldi :) Their Mamia range is awesome - used to buy pampers but theirs are half the price and possibly even better!

@CountryLissa 6 лет назад

I still use puppy pads and my daughter just turned 2! It's saved the changing pad covers.

@jerricaisrael2641 6 лет назад

Thanks for the tips. I'm a ftm-to be, due in august so I enjoyed these tips and the tips from others in the comments. I agree about a baby doesn't need a lot of clothes and doing more laundry is better. Riley is super adorable!

@henriettelinkshanderin1449 6 лет назад

Whenever I came home with my baby and it was asleep in the pram, I took the upper part of the pram with the baby in it and put it on the table on our balcony. This way I could take off my coat, put away the groceries, wash my hands, sit down for a couple of minutes and relax until the baby woke up. Because when it's winter and the baby wears thick clothes and you let it sleep inside the house, it will wake up and cry because it feels uncomfortable because it is too warm. And if you try to take off the baby's coat, it will wake up and be grumpy, too. My ground rules with kids: Don't wake sleeping kids. Don't disturb playing kids. Let them do what they can do on their own. Let them help if they want to.

@staceybaker846 6 лет назад

Yes!!!!! I have pictures of both my children sleeping in their strollers outside!!

@briannadouglas535 4 года назад

Wouldn't the cold air make them sick?😕

@Skzsnumber1fan 4 года назад

Brianna Douglas no. The cold itself doesn’t cause colds or sickness. More people get sick during the winter because everyone is inside, breathing the same recycled air.

@caroljohnstone497 6 лет назад

Too cute! So happy for you guys.

@TheGratitudeAttitude 6 лет назад

Great suggestions! My first child is now 34 ... but as an infant she cried so much ... everyone back then called it colic ... but now after 6 grandchildren, I'm learning that many babies have a difficult time digesting dairy protein - It's delivered from the mother to the child through her breast milk. My two daughters and my daughter-in-law had to give up dairy during the first 9 - 12 months... then slowly introduce it. My neighbor down the street had to do this as well... Back in the days when I was a young mother, doctors told us to drink lots of milk while breastfeeding! Can you just imagine!!!

@staceybaker846 6 лет назад

TheGratitudeAttitude I had the same problem with my second baby. He was really fussy. Cried a lot, gassy, even had a rash on his face. It was the cows milk protein, from the milk I was drinking. I’ve learned that cat’s milk is for cats. Dogs milk for dogs, pig milk for pigs and cows milk is for cows. Humans need human milk, or something man-made. No cows milk for people. (Although I still drink it 🙈)

@TheGratitudeAttitude 6 лет назад

So, so, true! My father was from Sicily and could never understand why my mother fussed with bottles when the breast was "ready to go," the perfect formula, and perfect temperature!!! LOL

@cr123-cn 6 лет назад

Its because dairy isnt ment for humans, cows milk is for baby cows. Cross species breastfeeding, gross.

@TheGratitudeAttitude 6 лет назад

exactly!

Hey, “stuff” happens. These are really great tips for new parents. I definitely use some of them already.

@Tabatha437 6 лет назад

So excited about these & I don’t even have kids. They dynamics of being prepared for anything, love it.

@michaelsylvester7272 6 лет назад

I find you’re videos very helpfully. Your little daughter is so cute. Enjoy the moment.

@Melissainsc 6 лет назад

My son just graduated from high school so it has been a while. We used cloth diapers and Velcro closure covers, a wet bag for dirties and washcloth wipes at home. I only used disposable diapers if we were on a multi-day road trip and didn’t have laundry facilities handy. Breastfed with formula supplement as needed so used bottles but not all that many. Yes, laundry almost daily. Yes, kept my diaper bag packed and ready to go. Yes, kept diaper supplies handy in a couple locations including my parents house which was just up the street so we could spend time there without toting a diaper bag every time. I used to be able to put a diaper, small pack of wipes and a ziplock bag in my purse and go out for short outings comfortably. Loved the minimalist parenting.

@ninamelsted8702 4 года назад

Hi Melissa I just discovered you yesterday and here you are already with a baby. You're delightful!

@brookemoore8752 6 лет назад

Puppy pads make GREAT disposable changing pads and are good for a extra layer of protection on the changing table. I love using them on public bathroom changing tables too.

@itstabindahere 6 лет назад

Oh that “mom glow” .. ❤️❤️ it’s so good to see you holding your child.. loads of love

@shivanisharma4983 6 лет назад

@lina8605 6 лет назад

You are definitely a cleaning super woman, all these tricks took me a a year or more to find out( and some I found out today after watching your video) and you figured it all out in 9 weeks!

@iloveny0971 5 лет назад

congrats Melissa, so happy for you and chad

@marissasharp9892 6 лет назад

Sounds like you guys are figuring things out pretty quickly! 😊 Riley is so beautiful and sweet! Just love seeing her! Enjoy each moment. I do remember, with my first, being shocked at how my laundry load literally DOUBLED. That first baby really changes everything! But aren’t those smiles worth it? 😉 Blessings❣️

@haneennaimat3486 6 лет назад

It isn’t every day someone is blessed with brains and beauty , wit & charm. I watch your videos because the output of your info is a mix of well thought out intellectual truths and most applicable when implemented into practice. AkA- it’s not a waste of time to tune into your orbit.Plus your baby is super cute and she made me smile- and that happens about as often as I clean the food trap on my dishwasher. ❤️you! Keep it up.

@-nellie-m3711 6 лет назад

Great video for New Mums, 38 years ago we didn't have All the gadgets that are around now, We had only cloth nappies, to sterilise you added a tablet into a container to do the babies bottles 🍼, I would hose the soiled nappies of any poop on them before putting them into a bucket to soak with a nappy solution, and Husbands weren't as hands on as they are now Lol 😂, Good Job Chad. Riley is growing so fast, enjoy your time with her this little before she grows up so fast. Much Love from Nellie from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺💞💞

@stephaniegunesch 6 лет назад

You are super organized! Mom of 3 you made me chuckle. I used to be very conscious of stains and now I really don't worry about them unless it's something special. I use washable changing pads over my nice pad cover instead of paper towels. One mom hack is to have a car bin with diapers, wipes, extra clothes, sun hat, sun screen, snacks, pacis, etc. Less to carry in the diaper bag -#3 I usually don't even carry one since there's so much other stuff to carry, but know it's all very close by if I need it!

@senoraantero2836 6 лет назад

I definitely agree with all of these tips, I have twin girls and the various changing stations is key especially if multi levels to your home. Once they get bigger then you’ll just change them anywhere lol.. but I’m going to start trying the wash rags instead of the wipes, I know it’s better but having two that means I’ll really have to be on my laundry game.. the other tip when changing an “explosive diaper” is to flip the liner on the other side. The liners we have are fabric on one side and wipeable material on the other, this can save you some paper towels.. congratulations again on your bundle of joy! God Bless!

@KH-sj2uv 6 лет назад

How fun is the 4th trimester, we pretty much just got through it and now she's nearly 11months old I'm finally getting all of the things that were neglected organized. ❤❤

@HannahRainbow88 6 лет назад

I have a 19month old and had to learn all of these tips the hard way haha! ... Especially having to be flexible; no sooner did i get a routine down than he changed it again and again! Glad you're getting on so well and that you have shared this. Thanks (yet again) CMS, I'm forever pointing people to your videos! X

@SuzanneB2009 6 лет назад

@krystasites9034 6 лет назад

I found it helpful to create multiple small bags for all the toiletries babies need such as powder, diaper cream. I bought plastic storage bagged and stashed one in my car, diaper bag etc. That way is something spilled or lost its lid it wasn't all over everything. I also created a bin for my trunk with diapers, blankets and extra clothes I'd add in the toiletries bag but take it out if the weather was hot so the contents wouldn't spoil. Also always had baby sunblock with me all times. Baby sunblock balm is purse-sized. Love the video

@michellebatho1792 6 лет назад

@MamaGraces 6 лет назад

Congrats! When we traveled we carried the pajamas with us and before we headed home we changed our kids into their pajamas. That way , if they fell asleep in the car all we had to do was get them straight to bed without waking them to change their clothes. Worked from newborn until 5 years old. Saved us lots of time.

Hi Melissa....Your daughter is adorable.....I've been helping my daughter out as she is recovering from a c-section and is on real light duty.....Things have changed so much since my kids were babies and I've had to learn the "new" ways of doing things....Same things still need to be done but just have to do them in a different way. Such fun having my first Granddaughter who is 9 days old today. Take care and enjoy being a Mom....they grow up so darn fast. Hugs to you, hubby and Riley.

The makers cloth waffle weave towels make good towels for babies after baths. Bonus use! I grabbed mine that I had hanging there to use on my hair and wrapped it around my 6 month old the other day. It's a good size.

@scrapper900 6 лет назад

Props to you both for being so organized. I managed to keep the house clean once in awhile, most days I showered, sometimes I ate, and occasionally my shoes matched. I was basically just in survival mode with a baby that wouldn’t sleep and wanted only me as a human pacifier and I had to have her to daycare and me to work (an hour away) by 7:30 AM. Just thinking about it makes me exhausted.

@sbellalopez9284 6 лет назад

Riley she's so precious 😍😍😍 bottles seem to multiply as much as dirty babies clothes just wait till she hits the solid food stage😉 and diapering when teething😁 explosions wait for those. However you sound like you got all under control. Great top repacking baby bag always need to be ready 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌. Absolutely doggie bags I keep bags from groceries ready to recycle with throwing diapers here 😉 thanks for sharing all tips and Raley😍 she adorable!

@lrob932 6 лет назад

Wet bags are so handy. I pack up old ziploc bags or plastic grocery bags if I have them on hand. They also make disposable changing pads. They are blue, like puppy pee pads. They are handy for all the messes when babies are newborn or for public restroom diaper changes!

@marycousino4820 6 лет назад

Congrats on the baby girl! My baby girl is 4 weeks old. I am looking forward to more tips and videos. I have a mesh laundry bag on my baby's hamper. When I have small dirty items like socks or mittens I put them in the bag. Then zip the bag and toss it in when I do the laundry. That way I don't have to search for all the small items when the laundry is done.

@sirenofsound 6 лет назад

Tbh even though I don't have kids, we DO go through plenty of dirty things going to and from music gigs. I learned a few things that could work with gig stuff, too! (I also love Melissa's no-makeup, hair-down, natural Mayim Biyalik mama-lookin' shots in this video sooooo much. So refreshing!)
