You’ve read all the books, previewed the latest videos and surfed the web…but where can you get the best ‘tell-it-like-it-is’ advice from? Your mommy friends of course!
I have to say, some of the best tips I get are from my mommy friends.
Here’s a good one….
When packing the diaper bag always carry ziploc sandwich bags with a fabric softener sheet enclosed. I can guaranteed you ‘ll have to change a diaper (or two) while you’re out and about. And if you have to dispose of it in an uncanny place, the scent from the fabric sheet will replace the ” smelly diaper “.
My ‘mommy advice’ goes something like this..Being a parent is a lifelong learning experience, no kid comes with a manual! I always say labour and delivery is the easy part. As a parent it’s so very easy to second guess ourselves, especially if we haven’t done it ‘by the book’ – did I make the right decision? But guess what..if it doesn’t quite turn out the way you thought it would, learn from it and forgive yourself, and know that you made the best decision you could at the moment.
Now if someone could post a tip on keeping your 10-month old from crawling away while changing a poopy bum that would be great!!
