DockATot Review

This review contains affiliate links. Product was purchased by me and opinions remain my own. For more information, see my full disclosure policy. One of the first baby products on my registry was a cute little swiveling bassinet that sits next to the parents' bed. I had already decided we would be breastfeeding, and having my baby near me seemed like an easy and lazy way for me to meet his … [Read more...]

5 Easy Ways to Save Money on Cloth Diapers

The following post contains affiliate links, however all opinions remain my own. For more information, see my full disclosure policy. At first the price of cloth diapering can seem daunting. $19.99 for a single cloth diaper? A pack of disposable diapers costs half that! Over time though, the cost of cloth diapers (including cleaning costs) is much cheaper than disposables (and earth friendly!), … [Read more...]

4 Useful Ideas for Expired Breastmilk

Every pumping mama's worst fear. Milk left on the counter too long; unthawed milk not being drank, a few extra unknown bags found in the deep freezer. I almost killed my husband (okay, an exageration) when he left 6 ounces of milk on the counter all night. I was an underproducer so seeing it in the morning was like a stab in my heart. Luckily, there's a lot of uses for breastmilk besides just … [Read more...]

5 Tips to Increase Breastmilk Supply

It's no secret my l'il bub and I struggled with breastfeeding. You can read our nursing journey here, but basically he wasn't getting enough breastmilk.

Why I Always Check my Baby’s Toes When he Cries

Babies cry. Mine were no exception. When my son was 2 months old he went through a period of time where he would cry and cry every night from about 10PM-12AM. Every. Single. Night. It's quite frustrating to not know why your child is crying. He refused both breast and bottle; swaddling, baths, skin to skin, walking, bouncing... nothing seems to soothe him.
