things i've learned- baby gear

We are almost 7 weeks into parenthood and I've learned a lot about baby gear. I always loved these posts before Olivia and thought I would weigh in as well. Of course this is just my experience and Olivia's preferences.

1. Olivia hates, HATES the moby wrap. I thought she just had to get used to it, but she just flat out hates it. I'm looking into other carriers. If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them.

2. Olivia loves her bouncer. Like most new moms, the bouncer is the only way I get a shower while Tom is at work. If she's at all fussy, the bouncer is the answer. She immediately stops fussing and becomes so content. She also has a swing but hates it. She gets so upset if we put her in it.






3. I'm in love with Babylegs. If we are hanging out at home, Olivia is usually in Babylegs. It makes diaper changes quick and painless. Olivia also overheats easily so pulling off the Babylegs are a quick way to cool her off.

4. The rocker is a life saver. Since Olivia sleeps in our room, we moved the rocker from the nursery to the nook in our room. I love feeding and rocking my baby in it.

5. My iPhone keeps me sane during late night feedings. I especially love the pinterest app. I also use my phone to keep track of Olivia's feedngs, diaper changes, and naps.

6. The boppy is also a must have for us. We use it for feeding and to prop Olivia up. She loves to be propped up to look at the world around her.

It's not a long list, but luckily for us Olivia is such a content baby. I'm sure as time goes on, the list will get longer. We are enjoying our sweet girl so much.
