I know, I’m such a nervous figdeter! I honestly notice it in 90% of my sit-down videos *sigh*. I know that I need to remember to put my hair up before I film! I’m ALWAYS messing with it when it’s down. I know this. We can stop commenting about it now. ❤️ Love you guys!
When I self sooth it is always touching my hair! Nothing wrong with that! It helps me with my anxiety for sure. Also I’m 21 weeks with my first, and this is one of the best videos I’ve seen covering the needs of a newborn! Definitely helped me so much thank you! P.s your little one is soooo cute! 🥰
Def try cloth diapering ! We tried it and fell in love. We’re about to have baby number two and don’t have to purchase any diapers. Matter of fact we purchased diapers twice total and never bought them again. They are a life saver. I think I’ve invested maybe $100 or $150 total ! Which now with baby number two coming we’re going to not have to invest anything.
@@amandad2062 actually the only time we had blowouts is when we used disposables. Poop is handled with a diaper sprayer. So all solids go into the toilet and because we spray the diapers they don’t stain. We wash our diapers every two days and we have no problems with stains/smells or anything like that. Not going to lie if someone threw a disposable at me and told me to put it on my son I wouldn’t know what to do because all I know is cloth. It’s so easy.
So I had our hatch sound machine on my bedside table that was tucked behind our sidecar crib. Because of it’s location the crib was always blocking the light a bit for diaper changes. What I would do (and I know this is weird) is hold my phone in my mouth by the pop socket that I have on the back of it. I’d just unlock my phone and have it on a medium amount of brightness. It let me see what I was doing and would help me make sure I got up any and all poo if present. It also wasn’t too bright , so it wouldn’t wake up the whole room (or her).
This was SO helpful!! I love that you aren’t trying to sell stuff and are actually just talking about what works well for you. Thank you for your honesty and real talk ❤️
Hi :) I never comment on videos but I really felt the need to thank you for this video. I have watched so so many videos like this and yours was the first that I actually found things I needed to add to my registry, and I feel very particular about what is on there. I can’t wait to watch your other videos because this one was so helpful. Thank you!
This video is SO thorough! I’m pregnant with #2 and as I’m going through all the stuff from my older son’s baby days it’s so hard to remember what we used, didn’t use, need to replace or buy, etc. This is a great video for cross referencing as we plan for what our new little guy will need!
Seeing your baby playing and give you kisses has been reassuring. It’s been years since I had a small baby. I’m not the biggest fan of the newborn phase, seeing your sweet girl helped me remember the good times and get a little excited for my unexpected pregnancy
Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to put this together to share with other parents/moms. A bit of constructive criticism, in the first 5 minutes I was distracted from the content by how many times your arms/hands crossed your face to tuck your hair behind your ears or pull it out of your face.

On summer, I think V-Fyee mosquito net cover for stroller also is an baby essentials. It can keep bugs flyings out of your baby when you can take your baby outdoor walking. recommended!
Hi Erin! Just watched this and found it very useful, thank you! And this is my first time watching your channel. Now I'm wondering if you will be posting the registry regrets video that you mentioned here towards the end! I don't see it in your upload history yet, and it's definitely one I would be interested in watching once you post it. So please let me know if you're still planning to do that! Thank you!
I got it off of Amazon but I can’t find it in my orders anymore! 😢 I know so annoying because it really is the perfect size. But the opening is 12x10 inches and it’s 7 inches tall
Thank you. This was helpful when I saw it when pregant. And I add a lot to my register. But about the monitor, I used the sense-u monitor. It tracks my child's breathing movement, sleep position, feeling temperature accurately and allows me to intervene when something happens to the child, e.g slow breathing movement, stomach sleeping, overheat, etc.
Unfortunately the sidecar crib tutorial never happened. Basically it’s just a normal crib built without one of the long sides. We positioned the missing side up against our bed and put a foam mattress topper underneath the crib mattress to make it level with our bed mattress. We zip tied the crib to our bed frame so that it couldn’t come apart. When we decide to have baby #2 I’ll definitely film the sidecar crib setup!
If you’re asking about the small basket we keep in between us on the bed at night I can’t for the life of me find where that one came from! Either it’s not on Amazon anymore or we got it as a gift with goodies inside. I’ll try and find a comparable one on Amazon today.

I would love a side car crib tutorial!
At 9months, our baby still loves the loungers. They just chill in it.
Subscribed! U r so easy to listen too!! Thank you!
Thanks for subbing!
Wow! What a great video. Super helpful as I'm making my registry👍
Baby straight stole your face😂💕
This has been the most informative and detailed list I've seen so far. Thank you so much for this.

Agree, very nice and informative video, many thanks from me too
This was so helpful. Thank you!!!
Can you share link for diaper basket you liked most?
Very helpful video!
Thanks!

How hard is it compared to disposable? Stains? How to deal with Blow out /poop??? Thanks if you get back with me!

So all solids go into the toilet and because we spray the diapers they don’t stain. We wash our diapers every two days and we have no problems with stains/smells or anything like that.

@@cosmicclothpads7662 thank you so much!!
what do you use for the dirty diapers at night? This video helped me a lot!
We would just put them in our small bathroom trash can and then empty it out in the morning.
Any recommendations on light during late night feedings and changes? Or did you just use your hatch
So I had our hatch sound machine on my bedside table that was tucked behind our sidecar crib. Because of it’s location the crib was always blocking the light a bit for diaper changes.
What I would do (and I know this is weird) is hold my phone in my mouth by the pop socket that I have on the back of it. I’d just unlock my phone and have it on a medium amount of brightness.

having my second in a few weeks and wish i wrote down which items i liked with my son 3 years ago! such a nice refresher!!! thanks:)

Yes! Our stroller rain-cover and mosquito net cover always stay in the bottom of our stroller. Definitely another must-have.
Love this! We have a loooot of the same stuff for our kiddos. Shout out to your aunt for her thoughtful gift 🤍
Didn’t mean to give a dislike
Most helpful video so far! Thank you for not dragging on about the same product for 15 minutes!
Great job! I'm a new mom too! I also made some videos about baby products I like. Newmom@43
The collector is so amazing. I loved having it, especially the first few months postpartum and was leaking everywhere.
You can also add a hair tie around the original plastic wipe container to keep only one wipe coming out.
What bedside crib do you have? I must have one.
First mom I finally hear mentioning the baby kicks the Hakka!!! Same here!!! I had to stop using it!!
Try using it in a pumping bra! The slit holds it more firmly. Also, fold the flange back before attaching to boob. It's a firmer hold.

Building my baby registry and I just feel and think is weird adding breast feeding things to it. Lol just me
That’s interesting. Would you feel weird about adding bottle feeding things to it?
I just love watching videos like this though I'm not expecting yet. Thanks Erin
Can you please share which basket you used to hold your diapers and wipes 🙏🏻
I got it off of Amazon but I can’t find it in my orders anymore! 😢 I know so annoying because it really is the perfect size. But the opening is 12x10 inches and it’s 7 inches tall
Your baby is SO cute!!! I'll be a first time mom too shortly after my 26th birthday, definitely giving your account a follow!

Baby so sweet
I love baby
I love waterwipes, even for personal use, they don’t leave any sticky feels or weird scents like other baby wipes
😃🥰
wow, actually helpful. Thanks!! I'm also living in florida
Great video!!! May I ask where you got that ADORABLE crib sheet from?
Subscribed! I’m so glad I found your channel you are awesome!
Off topic, but where is your watermelon basket in the background from?! It’s so sweet!!
I actually nabbed this from someone selling it locally on the Facebook Marketplace. So unfortunately, I have no idea!
watching this video in july 2022 and a lot of the links are crossed out in the drop down area. just letting you know
Thank you soooo much for letting me know this! I have no idea why or how that happened. I think I fixed it though? Thanks again!
Best For Baby Mother
Can you please link the bedside crib that you use? I really like it!
I’m pretty sure it’s this one! www.target.com/p/delta-children-adley-3-in-1-convertible-crib-bianca-white/-/A-75003678
Would love the sidecar crib tutorial! I’ll check your channel to see if it’s there…
Unfortunately the sidecar crib tutorial never happened. Basically it’s just a normal crib built without one of the long sides. We positioned the missing side up against our bed and put a foam mattress topper underneath the crib mattress to make it level with our bed mattress. We zip tied the crib to our bed frame so that it couldn’t come apart. When we decide to have baby #2 I’ll definitely film the sidecar crib setup!
What is the rocking chair you used ? I really like it !
Here it is! amzn.to/3HK7h0U
The wipe dispenser, does it dry the wipes out at all?
Not at all!
So simple to follow! Super useful information
So glad you found it helpful!
Where is the diaper basket from??
If you’re asking about the small basket we keep in between us on the bed at night I can’t for the life of me find where that one came from! Either it’s not on Amazon anymore or we got it as a gift with goodies inside. I’ll try and find a comparable one on Amazon today.

Thank you so much for this video! It was infinitely helpful!
