- In today's vlog we have a home vlooooooog! We start the day with a little nursery update and we talk about the theme we're planning on going with in his room. We look at some of things we've got so far for his room and then we head to Target for some more stuff lol. We find some cool stuff at Target and of course we get more baby clothes. Then we have a little clothes haul to show you what we got and show you the nursery so far, we have our wallpaper sample up on the wall and some paint samples to see what color we should pick for the other walls. What color did you like best, let us know in the comments down below! Then we talk a little more about how Jenn's feeling at this point in the pregnancy and give a little update. After that we make some chicken burritos from a Plated recipe and call it night! Thanks for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

My best tip from when my kids were babies: double sheet the crib. By this I mean put a rubber type waterproof pad down then the fitted crib sheet over it. On top of the sheet place another rubber sheet and topped by a second fitted sheet. Many times in the middle of the night when you go in to feed him you will find that he has either spit up (totally normal) or peed through his diaper so the sheet is wet. To remake the bed you have to turn the lights on, get new sheets etc. but when you double sheet you just reach down, grab the top two layers and pull them off. You then still have a fresh set. Hope this helps.
That is ingenious!
Waterproof pads
So smart!!
So smart, I never thought of that!
We did this with our second! Wish I'd known it sooner 🤦🏼♀️ Would've saved us so many rough nights...
Tim your energy and enthusiasm for this new baby is so lovely and heartwarming. It just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and excited for you guys. Thanks for sharing this with us!
hidingfromsomeone he’s gonna make an amazing father 😢💛
Yes he is Holy cow......lol.nursery adorable
I came here to say the same thing! I cannot wait to see them as parents. They’re going to be amazing and so excited to go on adventures with the baby. They radiate such happy vibes!
Swear to god I need a life these guys are all I talk about 😂😂 but there so cute together I can't stop watching there videos. So. Excited for baby tracker 😍
Ikr I can’t wait to see them as parents it will be amazing. X
Tim saying “that’s me! Soon!” At the Best Dad Ever mug low key made me tear up. So happy for you two!!!
Caroline A agreed!!!
Omg you gotta include some reference to THE BACK SIDE OF WATER~
That would be perfect!
I love that Jenn says, "When we give birth..." It touches my heart that Tim is included in that sweet way! You guys are such a wonderful and loving couple.
:-)
@@TheTimTracker I can't imagine Jen ever swearing but believe me she WILL swear at you. Just don't let her squeeze your hand, you will think think you're shaking hands with Arnie.
Baby tips: Gerber cloth diapers are the BEST used as burp clothes. Most burp clothes you buy do not absorb the amount of liquid that comes out of your child. Yes this has happened to me. Also get the a little cloth pads to put on top of the changing table cover. It will save you from having to wash the cover constantly! I love how excited Tim is in the planning process! Congrats again!
Rachel Hamilton you are so right, the cloth diapers make the best burp clothes, I even sawed cute material on them look better.
Ditto!!!
Agreed! My son is 4 and we still use the cloth diapers as "burp cloths" for his many messed!! Life savers! Besides when a baby pukes you tend to grab anything , including the thin baby blankets , your shirt , etc... lol
We just buy those flannel swaddle type blankets from Gerber and use them as "burp blankies". LOL
Thank you! I'll pick some up the next time we are at Target! How many do you think we need?
Zip up pajamas are a must! Dealing with the snaps on pajamas will get old real quick in the middle on the night. 👍🏻🥰
Jenny Dub yes ! I watch my older cousin having to change the baby , and it’s a struggle , when they come in to visits I distract the little one lol 😂 makes things goooo wayyy faster . :)
Yes! Or gowns! My son lived in those gowns for the first few weeks!! So easy at 3am! Lol
"welcome to my crib"...dad jokes already... you're ready!! LOL
Jen, if you don’t have one already a “belly band” can help a lot with pain and discomfort as you get farther along. I had hip dysplasia and pelvic separation when I was pregnant both times and it helped so much because it supports your belly and helps relieve some of the pressure. Just wanted to suggest that if your having a lot of discomfort.
Carrie Flack yes they are the best. Even the knock of from motherhood.
Yes, the support bands work wonders! I wish I got one with my first, but my second baby was further along and he was bigger than my daughter so it helped tremendously.
I also wore a backpack with some weight in it to help balance my body from having weight in my belly. Not all the time lol but sometimes at home. It was a total lifesaver.
Yes! The Belly Bandit, best $60 I spent while pregnant. It also came with a gel pack to freeze or warm up!
This and sports tape!
I love the nautical nursery theme! Perfect for a Florida baby. So excited for you guys!
Jenn! Use your pool! It should be your best friend in pregnancy. It feels amazing and helps so much with pregnancy pains. I was amazed a few home vlogs ago that you hadn't been in the pool. My husband even looked at me and was like but she's pregnant!! LOL. He knows ;)
Jenn remember if you cant breastfeed its OK dont beat yourself up if it just doesn't work that's why we have formula. Love you guys !
yep didn't work for any of ours..tried though, just never had much of a supply
It didn't work for me either. I was kinda upset, but it's OK.
Seriously, buy lots of footed pants! Those little socks never stay on little feet lol
The amount of times that my mum has had to chase someone to give them back a baby shoe/sock
I was just going to mention the sock problem. 🤣😂
Put tights on them instead of socks, even the boys (it makes great bribery when they start dating hehe) theys stay on and it avoids always needing footed baby grows that are expensive and grown out of quickly.
Not if you have big feet. I had to cut the feet out of my kids clothes because their feet were too big. I wear an 8 but my kids got big feet from their dad.
Better to wait. My son hated the footed pants/pj's even as an infant. I had to cut the little booties off all his outfits. He would just get too hot.
I would totally sit here and watch a video about every little thing you buy the baby because I love seeing how happy and excited yall are! :)
Christa I love the videos too !!!
Sleep sacks are wonderful. Keeps babies just warm enough when sleeping and “comfortably contained”. In colder climates a blanket can be added.
"How early do you start to teach a baby how to tell time"?
8am, Tim.
😂😂😂
*Slow clap*
About 3?
@@fijil7519 Agh...you perfected it. Nice.
Something I always remember from studying child development: shoes only when they start walking as otherwise their toes grow all curled up. Don't know how true but it does make sense! May explain some people's weird toes haha!
Good to hear. I had several kids and kept them in "shoe socks" (they only looked like shoes) till they were about a year. This way I never got the "where are their shoes" comment. LOL, they are a baby! And in Florida shoes would be hot. Let the piggies free!
Truly the onesies are what you need. Don’t buy so many formal outfits. You won’t use them. 👍❤️
Jen Resh I was just going to mention onesies. I know everyone is different, but mine basically lived in onesies . Some really cute ones, but just easy on/off. Formal outfits are cute, but once you start putting clothes on him, you’ll see what we mean. Have fun and trust yourselves.
Agree. I have so many dresses my daughter never wore. Onesies and cheap ones at that so I don’t feel so bad when they get ruined.
Babies can sleep 20 out of 24 hours a day. Many keep them in thin sleeper or onesie and swaddle all the time or even diaper and wrap but you could also keep them in a more formal outfit all the time or put it on when you go out. Many newborns also need light on the skin a few times a day for 10 minutes at a time and are often in need of being in just a diaper for that. Baby outfits are so cute and when you only have one it's fun to play dress up even if it's more work. They are blessed to both work from home so hopefully they won't be as sleep deprived and be able to truly sleep when baby sleeps and figure out their new flow to life.
Yup so true
You’ll appreciate a carpeted room when baby is learning to sit up alone or roll over...you guys are so so sweet. I have never been so happy for a couple.
Buy a bunch of plain onesies for house time. Long sleeves, short sleeves and sleepers.
Butt paste for diaper rashes.
Oh yeah, A&D ointment is the best! I still use it when my bum gets sore.
Boudreaux Butt Paste is excellent. Funny name but great stuff.
Yes! After one bout of diaper rash we started applying it after every #2 diaper change. Diaper rash is just awful. Agree on the Boudreaux Butt paste. Good stuff.
About your mouth Tim- I’m a dental hygienist- honestly sounds like you had an allergic reaction to the white strips. Could just be that your mouth is very sensitive to the ingredients, but my bet is allergic to something in there. No more white strips for you my friend. Bummer.
Side note- this was literally my favorite video you guys have ever done. I have never seen you two so happy. It’s pure joy watching you two.
I had an allergic reaction to them as well! My teeth and gums were so sore and it was awful for days! Turns out, I can't have hydrogen peroxide or baking soda on my gums.
Yea, I'm definitely staying away from them from now on. I hope my mouth stops hurting soon!
Try swishing milk around your mouth, Tim (it's an antidote to bleach). Might be too late to help but it can't hurt!
I agree I'm a dental assistant and I immediately thought allergic reaction
I love home vlogs!!!!!
When you pack a hospital bag Jen do you plan on sharing what you take?!
Hospital bag haul!
Tim&Jenn I'm so excited and happy for you both,your blessed with a beautiful miracle congrats
Jen you are glowing with beauty. So happy for you and Tim. You both look extremely happy and excited for your blessing 💙
Get baby mittens !! His nails will be sharp and he will cut his wittle baby skin on accident lol
Also baby nail sizzors are easier to use than regular clippers which can pinch baby fingertips too easily.
Good call. I hated cutting their nails when they were brand new. It’s daunting. The mittens are easier until their arms get stretched out more and they don’t mind it. Even sleeping it’s hard to get their nails when they’re newborns.
We just put socks on our kids hands. lol. It worked just as well as mittens, and they had dual purpose.
WickedlyMe328 i actually have many pictures as a baby with them on and my baby brother and sisters also lol the doctor told my mom that they can scare if they r deep enough but its just a normal baby Precaution lol
What I did was use a baby nail file instead of baby nail Clippers
I loooove the "Hoommmmeee Vvlllooogggssss!!" Baby updates are so fun!
I can't wait to see baby Tracker ♡♡
We can't wait either!
It's going to be awesome just to see you both interacting with baby ♡♡
In my personal opinion from how I was raised, a child doesn't need shoes until they start walking. Otherwise it's literally just for looks. 😂
Well he definitely needs boots for his farmer outfit that we bought him last time. :-)
You are absolutely right Tim... he does!! 🤣
I didn't put shoes on my little untill he started walking. I always put socks on him when he was itty bitty but they never stayed on.
AshLeigh Mercury very true. The only time they really need shoes is when it's really cold outside. Gotta keep those little feet warm.
They’ll need shoes for when it’s cold regardless of if their walking yet
If you don’t have a Boppy pillow, PLEASE get one! It is a real lifesaver...ok, more of an arm and shoulder saver! I can not recommend enough!
Do you recommend the one that looks like a horseshoe and wraps around your waist or the lounger?
The Boppy is also good for propping up in the crib, bed, any flat surface the baby will lay; it’ll keep baby from falling to the sides. Just an idea.
TheTimTracker .... I believe the horse shoe.
TheTimTracker The horseshoe! Didn’t have one until my 4th baby and boy, what I had missed out on! Use it to prop your arms (and baby) during feeding, and then to prop baby up on his back (like reclining) and also for tummy time! It’s awesome.
@@TheTimTracker I loved the "My Brest Friend" for nursing! It buckles around your waist so it stays in place well and gives good support. I also had a Boppy that I used for propping the baby up as someone said below.
“Poop deck” on the changing table😂😂😂 cried from laughing.
Tim is starting early with the "Dad jokes".
It's totally going to live up to it's name!
Today is my daughter’s first birthday, and she’s not walking yet. Our doctor advised no shoes until she can walk as sometimes shoes can actually inhibit them from walking.
We have that same tub and are STILL using it for her! It won’t be much longer though that she’ll be too big, but we got a full year (and then some!) out of it!
I love how excited you guys are :) We had our third baby lat night and the whole pregnancy was so worth it. I dealt with a lot of pain as well, but it is so worth it. Enjoy it :)
I love these updates! As a mom of teens I can tell you that the newborn gowns are THE BEST. When you are sleep deprived, and are making a million diaper changes no one wants to mess with snaps! Plus, it disturbs the baby less. I also just sold my "changing table" after 18 years. It was a high/low dresser.
a little unsolicited advice, keep the receipts for all that clothes. babies grow quick and he may not get to wear all that you are buying. but heck I wish I had that extensive of a wardrobe :) lol
Jessica Burrola And you never know on sizes. My nephew was born at almost 11 pounds, no way he'll be wearing newborn clothes.
I agree with this. That is one of the reasons we ignored everyones suggestions to wash EVERYTHING ahead of time. We returned a lot for our 9lb 7oz baby and saved a few things with tags to give as gifts to other expecting friends. If you take all the tags off and wash everything you can't return it.
Yes, it would be a tremendous blessing to a pregnancy help center if they donated what they end up not needing or only use lightly. They said they plan to donate today so I have a feeling that's what they plan to do if they don't get to use all the cloths. It is a great tip that if your on a budget you should wait to wash and save receipts. Love that!
“should we tell them the nursery theme?”
“No!”
“well I was gonna show them the wallpaper.”
“oh okay.”
absolutely so happy for you guys also that made me laugh a little. ❤️much love
I thought it was going to be a surprise for when it was all done, but I guess that would be impossible with me showing you guys us building the furniture and stuff lol!
@@TheTimTracker you guys are the best youtubers! if you feel like it sub to DeliveredNuke on youtube
The fact that tim drove up to the doors to pick up jenn is heartwarming 😭❤️ Also how excited tim is for the little baby! 😭😭❤️❤️❤️ I’m so happy for you guys!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
LOVE the sea theme! We never did a nursery, after all my kids I realized the only real thing I needed to prep for a baby was some great wrap onesies, muslin blankets, and a babywearing wrap! Couldnt live without that!!
I’m loving all the home vlogs recently, can’t wait for more baby updates!
The onesie my youngest came home in (from the hospital) was from Goodwill, and it's one of my favourite baby outfits he ever had :) Because babies outgrow things so fast, thrift stores are essential for saving money! That and family hand-me-downs :)
And Crest Whitestrips always made my teeth super sensitive, so I had to stop using them :( They weren't making much of a difference anyway!
lac92576 Goodwill has a great variety of baby clothes lightly used
We will check out Goodwill! Thank you!
Definitely agree. And gowns and onsies. I always got the gowns in 0 to 6 month cause it fits for longer then a couple 6 to 12 for later. Just keep receipts to return them if they never get used.
Once upon a child! Lots of stuff new with tags
Lauren Rosenblatt was about to suggest the same thing. I work at one and its amazing. It varies at your local store, but it has so many gently used clothes, equipment, toys, etc. Tim and Jen, be sure to check it out.
You should save all those receipts not open anything yet and find yourself a Kids Consignment sale. I think there should be some coming up in September. You could probably get those for less than half price and in great condition. On top of what you could probably get the whole baby wardrobe for the price of half of the things that you bought. Check them out. They truly are the way to go.
Check out a website called Consignment mommies. They have a lot of Consignment sale listings from all across the United States. I wish I would have known about them earlier I would have saved tons of money. But at least I know about them now, and I never have turned back
"Lay me down on a bed of salsa" "Oh that sounds romantic" DYING. Snort laughing. So loud.
That wallpaper looks like that cup pattern from the 90's I love it
It totally does! Haha!
You can start teaching now by reading to him. Then as soon as he is born continue reading... Very important
Your enthusiasm for your baby is heartwarming! The happiness is contagious! So happy for you guys!!!
Tim there's a Colgate Mouth Rinse for Oral Sores I recommend it it alleviates the pain almost immediately AND heals the burns/sores!!!
Excellent tip! I'll be looking for it the next time I'm at the store!
No it has peroxide in it too! Not the best thing for this case.
I love seeing how excited Tim is. Jen, you have the best support. Youre so blessed!!!
You guys are clearly so excited because you're buying so much stuff. Don't buy too much because if you do then none of your guest for your baby shower would have anything to give you if you already have everything but I love your theme and love the sign. Keep up the baby updates and I hope if possible you live stream universal's announcement
It is entertaining watching first-time parents go completely overboard for their first and then completely relaxed with the second and so on.
That one piece gown with the elastic on the bottom - yes!!! Those are so awesome especially the first month. It makes things sooooo much easier - get more!
You should have a day at sea world only shopping ( maybe a ride on mako) as they have loads of great sea related things for the nursery
🐬 Adorable nautical theme! My Mother says to start stocking up on Dreft laundry detergent, baby wipes, and diapers in different sizes. You'll need boxes of them.
Dreft will not get out stains. It’s better to use a Tide free with no perfume.
For my sons hospital bag I packed two newborn outfits and two 0-3 month outfits two sets of mittens and two sets of socks. Had he been born in winter I would have packed two blankets for the car. I am thankful I packed my breastfeeding pillow though! Was a life saver. You can never pack to much for the hospital! I went in to be induced and wound up having a c section and stayed in the hospital for four nights five days. so I was extremely glad I packed extra for both me and my boy and husband.
Love the ocean theme for the nursery!! Make sure to get him a dolphin. We all need a plush dolphin in our lives :) :)
It's so amazing to see you guys so excited preparing for the arrival of baby Tracker!!!! You have no idea how excited we all are for this baby!!!! Blessings!
We are so darn excited too!
Check and see if you can claim the pump against your health insurance. Most insurance companies will cover one or two types of pumps
Gareth Rees actually since Obamacare insurance companies now HAVE to cover a breast pump.
Thanks! We will check!
Yes!!! I ordered mine right through my insurance
Check aero flow on Facebook. You can get a breast pump through them using your insurance.
I think it’s great that Bandit is having a play date, and that even with the baby on the way you still show Bandit he is a part of the family.
When I had my son I read a really good tip about taking a ziplock bag with a complete newborn outfit including nappy and another one with a complete up to 1 month outfit with a slightly larger nappy just in case and that was such a good idea as my partner ended up having to dress him b/c I had an emergency c section, and he was super tired and overwhelmed as well so it was just a really convenient way of doing it! There was no searching through the bag for clothes / nappies.
You should get baby tracker's name also engraved on the paddle and the date and his measurements I think that would be cool.
I thought the same! Would be so cute!!
We are definitely planning on getting his birthday engraved once we know it. :-)
@@TheTimTracker Thanks for the reply. that's really cool!
Don't go crazy on buying baby clothes and stuff.. wait until baby gets there then buy what u need.. I ending up buying to much and never used half because my son grew so fast..
What you have picked out so far is all awesome... congratulations on baby.. 💖🍼
I love that you guys are so open with your questions about the baby and being parents! I love your nursery theme too!
My daughter was 9lb, 21 3/4 long when she was born so she never got to wear her newborn clothes 😔 She’s a beautiful 5’ 7” 16yr old baby now 😊 This is such an exciting time right now for y’all. All the anticipation, nervousness, and excitement of the unknown is a feeling like no other. I can’t wait to watch your adventures unfold! Welcome to parenthood ❤️
Noise machine for the win! Def helps with sleep training! So exciting to see u all getting ready
M&K Forever when my older cousin and her husband had to sleep train the baby , it was crazy lol but she’s doing soo much better now , she’s 1 1/2 . She has a noise machine and she’s good to go .
I have twins but at six months they sleep 11-12 hours with the help of their sound machines 👍
Love the 'Dad Jokes' Tim! Keep 'em coming! Also, just a tip when buying older clothes, pay attention to what season it will be when your baby is six months, etc.
One more idea regarding the first outfit... in your excited supply shopping, be on the lookout for a plush the same size as the outfit you choose for going home. Then, when that important and adorable outfit gets quickly too small, instead of joining the others in the storage-or-donate, dress the plush in it. We did this and it is such a treasured keepsake now; and, Teddy (now 4) just loves seeing what size he was and what he was wearing when he came home for the first time.
We love you both! Can’t wait to share in your ongoing joy.
GJHipius cutest idea ever
Expecting parents are so entertaining! Keep that enthusiasm at 3:30am, night after night, after night, after night, after night, after night, after night! Yes, the Adventure has yet to start. Congrats!
"Welcome to our crib" Tim already has the dad jokes down lol 😂
Hahaha Welcome to my Crib! Oh Tim you crack me up. I love the home vlogs guys keep up the great work and I can't wait for the baby to come!
If you are having a lot of abdominal or back pain you can use a belly band or you can use a babywearing wrap that you can use later to carry your little guy. wrapyouinlove is my favorite for wrap tutorials on youtube.
Watching you guys get ready for your little man makes me so happy, it takes me back 13 years when we were expecting our first..... Also Jenn, I totally get the pain thing, I was so uncomfortable with both my pregnancy's... Wouldn't change it for the world but it was tough..... Every ache will be worth ever second when you have your little guy in your arms 🤗
My Mom said the baby gowns were the best thing when my sister and I were newborns because you don't want to mess with buttons in the middle of the night.
Stephani you are right. The gowns are lifesavers especially at sleep time.
Just wait til your third trimester...I couldn't breathe bc his feet were in the way, couldnt sleep bc I was so uncomfortable and I always needed to pee. GOOD TIMES. LOL
Oh no! That sounds like no fun!
You guys are just so adorable. That is one blessed little man to have such a wonderful Mommy and Daddy. This I s just the beginning. Can’t wait to see the joy once he joins the party in person!
When I was pregnant with my first child I had increasing back pain. It turned out that the baby was pressing against a ureter. As babies grow and move they can put pressure on sensitive areas. At one point the doctor had to put a stint in to keep the ureter open. But in all honesty it is rare that the pressure is enough to close off the ureter. However, even intermittent pressure can cause lower back pain. Many blessings to all three of you as you continue this amazing adventure! 🥰
Make sure you take your wedding ring off before your hands swell, my friend had to have hers cut off!
Ooh. Mine did swell. I didn't have to have mine cut off, but it was painful removing it with lotion. Lol.
I’ve worn my rings with all 3 pregnancies and never had any issues with swelling. It depends on the person I think.
Can we get new Tracker graphic shirts soon?! Really wanna support but looking for something more minimalistic like what Tim’s wearing in this vlog!
We need to put out a few more designs soon! There are a few minimalistic ones on there, and Spreadshirt is running a sale right now for 15% off until the 4th with the code SUMMERSUN15 timtracker.com/shop

Hi Tim and Jenn! Hearing you show all the outfits and also talk about donating clothes cross referenced a suggestion I can offer. When we were getting ready (I know it’s easy to always want to do more in the excitement of waiting!), we looked for and bought a few large clear totes, which we pre-prepped with labels of sizes... one for newborn, one for 0-3 mos, etc. Then, as Teddy grew out of sizes, we could collect each size in one tote, wash and fold them all one last time to say goodbye as we pack them in, and seal them up. That way, they are super-safe stored for reuse, or for giving away... and believe me, handled and stored that way, it is absolute *gold* to the next parent recipient (whether a friend or a stranger in need), who then is also armed with the means to do the same themselves and keep passing along. Especially the smallest adorable outfits that inevitably get so little wear by the time so much growing happens so fast!
Isn't is crazy how all the baby needs now is just to be snug in your belly but when he's born he needs so much gear? We were always amazed at how much stuff we needed when our babies were born! Ps, sound machines are great for helping baby sleep! Our girls all used one and still use them!
"We have no self control and bought more baby clothes."
Literally saaaame. My best friend is having a baby and im designated auntie. I have legit gotten at least 9 outfits for this child, I cannot help myself when I go into a store! (Bonus: everything ive gotten has been on clearence sale!)
Little cooking tip! If you put a damp paper towel under your cutting board it helps the board not move and it’s safer!! Your dinner looked delicious! Much love!

Thank you for the tip!
Tim, you’re going to be such a great Dad. Your Dad jokes are at their peak. Don’t forget about a sling/baby carrier. I used a Moby wrap when mine were newborns and then transitioned to a soft structured carrier when they were 3 months. They were absolute lifesavers when it came to actually being able to do anything other than sit and hold the baby. My personal favorite is the Kindercarry brand. As far as the clothes go, take a newborn outfit and a 0-3 months one. Predicting how big the baby will be is actually really difficult to do via ultrasound so it’s better to be prepared. They thought my eldest child was going to be 9lbs and he came out 7lbs 6oz and they thought my youngest was going to be 7.5 lbs and he was 8lbs 7oz. So excited for you!
My oldest was 8.5 lbs/22 inches and wore newborn clothes for a month. Then my youngest was 7 lbs 7 oz/20 inches and wore newborn for close to 3 months. Seriously take that newborn stuff with you! You guys seem so happy and we are so excited for you & baby!
“Get that fish away from me” 😱 He already takes after his dad! 😆
When was the first time you felt him kick?
Slow down on the purchases. That's what baby showers are for 😂
tg0926 yes!! I was just thinking the same thing!!
Seriously. We should do an online baby shower
Baby shopping is the fun part lol
I was thinking the same. They are going to have so many duplicates.
I think most of the stuff was sent from viewers and fans
Don’t forget all the things you’re going to get at your shower! Don’t buy too much, you’ll get so much! So excited for you both!
It’s so sweet to see you guys talking about the baby moving and all the baby preparations, I love it!!!!! 😍
How do you describe Tim and Jenn?
Glowing!!
:-)
And so the Dad jokes begin... love the Nautical theme its going to be so cute!
Hey Tim! I’m a dental hygienist and sometimes bleach can burn your gums if the strip is touching the gum tissue. That’s one downfall of the strips, they don’t fit well and often can burn the tissue. Keep doing the warm salt water rinses and discontinue bleaching or cut back to every couple days. Avoid sour, acidic, citrus and spicy foods. It shouldn’t take more then a couple days to heal up. Hope you feel better soon!
Especially having a baby in near the fall/winter (not to mention cold & flu season), don't forget to stock up for yourselves for things you may forget to avoid so many last minute runs to the store about but also self-care being at home with a newborn can be lonely and overwhelming so maybe so facemasks, magazines, a couple books, stock up on podcasts you love for late night feedings when he won't go right back to sleep. New nail polishes, little things to make you feel like you. Birth can be daunting, so don't be afraid to treat yourself a little mama. Lastly they make coffee for moms that is less acidic, and has added nutrients that's a life saver in those first weeks.
Do you have any names picked out .. 👍💟💙 Jen will be needing a rocking chair in the nursery for the breastfeeding and settling the bubs down to sleep
We have a few in the top running, we probably won't reveal until he is born though.
To stop the cutting board from moving - place a wet paper towel underneath it.
Love your vids!! 😘
Y’all should read becoming babywise. I think it would really help y’all with theme park trips because it helps the baby get on a routine and you’ll kinda know when he needs to eat and when he needs to sleep. It’s pretty great!
The love to dream swaddle up is the best swaddle ever!! My daughter always had to have her hands up by her face and this is the only sleep sack she would use. Still uses it to this day (3 months later) except we’ve upgraded to the transitional sleep sack with the removable arms for when they start to show signs of rolling over
A belly band works great for supporting the belly and helping with back pain. Keep hydrated, try some warm or cool compresses in those achy spots too! You might need extra support when sitting/ laying down. ♡♡♡
Do you have a brand of belly band that you recommend?
Honestly, I purchased one from babies r us when it was still around lol 🤦♀️🤦♀️ So sorry!! Google some , see which help and meet your needs best. And please read the reviews!! Lol I wish I could be more specific\helpful ♡♡♡
Love home vlogs!! And the baby’s nursery will look amazing can’t wait to meet baby tracker!!
We can't wait to meet him either! So excited!
I highly recommend getting waterproof pads that are covered in flannel/soft cloth in a variety of sizes. I used small ones when I was breastfeeding to keep milk from getting onto the nursing pillow, medium sized ones on the changing pad, and also crib sized ones under the crib sheet. I'd also place them under my babies whenever I had them in our bed. Also, get a waterproof mattress pad for your own bed to save your bed from getting wet from any leaks and spit up from the baby. I still find all the waterproof pads useful in various situations now and my youngest is 7 years old. Another tip is to bring your nursing pillow to the hospital -- it is so helpful for positioning the baby when you are first learning to breastfeed instead of trying to use regular pillows to help position yourself and the baby. Congratulations!
Love those swaddle up (grey) swaddles, it was so easy to use and they make larger sizes that let the baby have their arms out when they learn to roll over. So much easier than trying to swaddle, especially if you have a LO that wiggles out easily.
A water theme is such a great idea! You can do so many things with it - so awesome, can’t wait to see how it all turns out 😍🐳🐠🌊🏄🏻♂️⛵️🛥⚓️🏝
It'll mature well as well. I did my room in the house we moved into 6 years ago when I was 10 and still love the simple vintage theme I chose
I know people are saying to slow down on buying stuff but OH MY GOODNESS BUY ALL THE THINGS THIS IS SO EXCITING and Baby Tracker deserves multiple outfit changes a day 😁
Melissa Bryant 100% agree. They’re excited and that’s what new parents do. It’s such a fun and memorable time.
Jenn is so cute with her ‘oh-no’...makes me giggle every time. U guys are just an adorable couple. Makes me happy to see people love each other so much. Thanks for sharing.
So happy for you guys. Ya'll are going to be awesome parents and your baby boy will be so blessed to have you both.
