Late August! First baby, a girl ❤

this may be a hot take, but i loved the newborn phase. everyone told me id struggle and hate it and i repeatedly told people no, i love this. i know not everyone is as lucky as i am to have a healthy delivery and a loving husband but man, now that i have a 3 month old im so sad the newborn phase is over. again, i know im very blessed but i just want other moms to know that sometimes you will LOVE the newborn stage

It depends where your priorities are. If your priority is enjoying the newborn stage and recovering it will be so enjoyable if your priority is getting back to your old routine before baby you will find yourself fighting against yourself and feeling resentful.

That's so funny, I love hearing different perspectives without the "trust me this is how you'll feel" attitude. Because all I heard was "soak up these snuggles, they aren't tiny like this for long, you'll miss this so much, it only gets harder from here" etc etc on and on. And I had two very difficult newborn phases so far. And amazing seasons with them older! It only keeps getting better for us! Even the terrible twos are just not anything compared to the difficulty of newborns so far for me. Maybe this time I'll have a dreamy newborn season with this baby!!

​@Anne Whittemore good to know. My baby is 11 weeks old and it's been miserable with reflux. So tired of hearing "babies spit up"....yeah keeping towels down on your floor all over the house is not a part of the normal newborn phase! 😢

My tip for baby boy diapers; open the diaper and then cover again for about 10 seconds. The cool air often stimulated him to pee, and you can catch it before putting the new diaper on!

Something that was so helpful for me (having our master on the 2nd floor) was having a mini fridge in our bedroom full of waters and other hydrating drinks and I kept some easy, quick snacks on top of the mini fridge. This was so helpful for my recovery. Also if you plan to breastfeed, it is so worth it to invest in a lactation consultant.

And he seems to differentiate night/day bc he’s not opening his eyes or moving much to feed at night. I am someone who never thought I would cosleep due to anxiety, but I’ve actually found that having him laying along my body skin to skin is the safest I’ve felt. It seems that I am overproducing milk and I can tell if he gags immediately when he’s beside me.

I dont care how tired or sleep deprived I am but I loved every second of the newborn stage. My newborn will be a month old next week. ❤ I know your newborn needs to feed every 3 to 4 hours but its not necessary to wake your baby up in the middle of the night for feeding if your baby is progressing normally and is not underweight. When you newborn sleeps through the night for a good 6 hour.. let the baby sleep because it teaches them night time sleep. My newborn started sleeping through the night towards the end of the second week and its been blissful. He sleeps at 11 at night and wakes up at 5 for feeding and sleeps again and wakes up at 7 or 8 for the next feeding. Its like that for my first 2 kids as well. They all sleep through the night. The hakaa breast suction is the best. Cheap and easy ❤

@@babycakes8434 it's kinda like a suction pump and acts like an automatic pump. There's a yt video on how to use it but I didn't use it for long unfortunately because I had complications after I delivered and lost too much blood. My body was focusing on recovery rather than producing milk but when I used it, it did work, I just didn't have enough milk to produce a lot.

Thank you, definitely need more moms sharing stuff like this. Most of the people that have talked to me about early motherhood seeing me pregnant have complained and projected fear and focused on struggles. So thank you.❤

Mom to 2 under 2 here! My tip is to get knee high socks for the newborn stage. Those tiny little socks never stay on, but I would sometimes put my toddler's cute Burt's Bees cable knit socks on my newborn and pull them all the way up. They stay way better!

We don't have problem with H&M socks

Wake windows are everything. When my babies were newborns I was very resistant to track wake windows because it was yet another mental task to juggle and I thought it was a corner I could cut without dire consequences. But we inevitably ran into SERIOUS over tiredness problems when I didn’t at least try to be aware of sleep timing. More mental energy in the moment; but much less stress overall.

This was an awesome video for this first time mom!! 36 weeks and this is the first video I’ve seen full of very useful knowledge and hacks and not just a ditl with a newborn video. It was awesome, thank you!!

My baby is now 6 months old and aside from the first weeks of getting the hang of breastfeeding - and in general how to take care of a baby - I can honestly say I loved the newborn stage. I was lucky enough that he's a mellow little dude and although we had a hospital stint due to a urinary tract infection at 8 weeks we enjoyed the getting to know each other phase. BTW I work from home in editing and translating and never stopped doing it - just wore him in my Ergobaby.

Another thing I found useful was to watch videos on things people wouldn’t get or do if they could do the new born phase again. During the explanation they tend to explain what they did do too. Having a 2 month old atm I know there are a few things I wouldn’t live with out, some things I wish I knew to get and a bunch of things I haven’t touched yet.

Expecting our first in October. The tip about the socks was really helpful since we live in northern Sweden and want to keep her warm and cozy. We just started to slowly build up her closet and have been debating on whether to use socks or clothes with covered feet. Socks it is!

The newborn stage is the best! The first week is the most magical time of life! They just grow out of that super cute little self so so quick and you are left missing that tiny human forever! I keep looking at my babies newborn photos and almost feel grief from how bad I miss them at that time! Every stage is awesome but man I miss the newborn stage

Great video! I'm due in a couple months with my second, so im trying to refresh my mind with all the newborn stuff. I'm sure I will be trying the cradle cap tip especially! As far as the footed sleepers go, I personally liked not having to deal with socks especially in the newborn stage, but my baby was also a little peanut who was swimming in newborn size clothes when she was born, so she didn't grow out of them for a long time. I also discovered that I prefer snaps over zippers, which surprised me because every thing I saw online said it would be the other around lol

Due with my first born in December 2023 😊 loved the tips!

I'm due eith my 3rd in June, and I would say to keep in mind that every hard phase WILL pass! You will experience things, like sleep regressions or maybe Baby has reflux, that are really hard and will really test you. When you're in the middle of it, it may feel like this will never end, but keep reminding yourself that it will pass!

newborn life was really hard for me, mostly bc of how young and immature i was. in my mind i hadn't been able to shift well from being taken care of to taking care of another. my son had a lot of tummy troubles/colic, and it was just a lot on me. i was the first of anyone i knew to have a baby too (i still am the only one of my friends with kids lol) and it was hard mourning my old life. i'm 25 now, i have two kids and i'm hopefully about to be pregnant with my third. once i started going all in on being a mom and just grew up a little it's become a lot easier. i am so grateful for them. ❤ i also just LOVE the toddler stage way more than the baby stage, it's more fun to me! if it doesn't come naturally to you when your baby is born, just give it time.
