My wife and I are expecting our first and I’m so excited 😩😩 I want to buy the world for our little one but I don’t even know where to begin

[@O2BAmachine]

This is so sweet that you're being so involved!! Great dad already!! Congrats to you both 🎉

[@Ladynarf]

Congrats! Research love, do lots! I put so much on my registry and returned so much after I found out things were not safe or useful. Examples are bumpers, they are banned in some states. Cribs shouldn’t have blankets, pillows or toys in them. Bumbos are not recommended by doctors as they don’t really help development. Baby mirrors in the car can be a danger as well as sun screens that pull down. They become flying objects in an accident. Also those extra pads you can buy for car seats or strollers are also considered unsafe. Some doctors or nurses will not let you leave the hospital if you have them installed. Anyway, things you never thought of and saw other ppl have are not always needed or even safe. Good luck to you and your wife!!

Exactly, if you choose to get that I would suggest to get a router just for it, lock it so no machine can connect, make the manual registration of the machines and turn invisible for the house router.

Side note about the pumps. A lot of people get the spectra S2 free from insurance then just buy a $30 battery pack and Velcro it to the pump to make it portable like the S1. You can save a lot of money that way especially if the pump is free from insurance.

Using formula milk safely Powdered infant formula must be prepared as carefully as possible. It is not sterile, even though packets and tins of powder are sealed. Formula can contain bacteria such as Cronobacter sakazakii and, more rarely, salmonella. If the feed is not prepared safely, these bacteria can cause infections. This is rare, but can be life threatening. Very young babies are most at risk and it is better to use liquid ready-to-feed products for premature or low birth weight babies. It is essential to make up a fresh bottle for each feed and to throw away any unused formula within two hours.

[@angenunes8483]

I put the mobile over the change table and it's a really nice distraction for her when being changed! I also got one from etsy that was pretty enough and not babyish to transition and stay in her room to adulthood.

1000% agree with the wipe warmer! Definitely dries them out, can grow mold, AND you can’t have warm wipes every where you go and if they’re used to that, it’s such a shock and makes those experiences worse. I agree, just warm them up in your hand.

[@SirKrux]

First time father here, and to speak on the Baby Brezza. Thought it was the coolest moat convenient baby item ever. Was nice in the middle of the night to be able to just throw the bottle under the spout without having to lay baby down or have to turn on all the lights and rattle a bunch of canisters and so on around. After 3 days of use I noticed the milk was getting thinner and thinner. So on inspection of the machine the formula actually gets stuck on the funnel where it enters the bottle. When I opened the machine up there was at least enough formula stuck in the spout for at least 2 bottles. Would NEVER reccomend that until it gets a redesign.

[@bztrain]

You’re supposed to clean and then make sure the funnel is absolutely dry before reinstalling every 4 bottles. Also wipe where it dispenses with a dry paper towel.

[@SirKrux]

@@bztrain Noone from Baby Brezza told me that, they were just questioning me on if I had it assembled correctly. Either way, cleaning after 4 bottles just takes away all the convenience of the machine it's self.

I know as far as the highchair reclining (we had a reclining Graco). Sometimes baby/toddler would fall asleep at meal time. We'd recline them so they were more comfortable until everyone was done eating. The Graco one is only like $60 if anyone is looking for something more affordable.

As an exclusive pumping momma I definitely recommend the Elvie. It’s easy and convenient for when you need a quick supply of milk. Unfortunately though I owned mine for a month and it went out but thankfully they have a warranty. Let’s just hope it doesn’t die on me again.

[@shannonholliker8133]

I love the candid approach to baby product regrets. Unlike other videos, you don't make everything a disclaimer ("it is completely fine if it worked for you"). New parents need humor and honesty. The Pack & Play is such a great idea. In addition to it working as a bassinet, you can move it around to the most convenient place. Then, you can continue having a baby nap or play in there so when it's time for vacation, baby feels secure in their sleep spot. They are so easy to strip sheets if you have an extra pukey baby. People get so caught up in maxing the comfort-level of their babies. While newborns, infants and children ALL need safety, nurturance and security, our bodies natural signs of discomfort help us learn self-regulation. Also, babies who sleep without being able to recognize their own hunger cues ('dream feed) or are swaddled so tightly it disables all reflexes, could be a contributor to SIDS. It's good to tame the startle reflex to prevent constant waking, however, sardine baby is unhealthy for extended hours.

[@shannonholliker8133]

But over the head onsies can be pulled down from shoulders to feet. .... that's why they have the reinforced neck. Once you learn this trick, over-the-head onsies are a savior in hot weather. Zippered outfits are a staple for babies brought home with medical equipment. NICU mommies and daddies are able to finally dress their babies with all the tubing, thanks to button down.

[@helenhoward5346]

You just have to make sure you're using the right setting on the brezza. It's calibrated to measure the powder correctly. There's a difference in consistency between hand made formula and machine made. Doesn't mean it's incorrectly mixed. Ppl have tried bunking it but the results are negligible. Personally, I wouldn't spend $200 on one when mixing formula ain't that hard. I do recommend their instant bottle warmer that dispenses warm water (don't have that either or any warmer but it seems awesome). I just keep hot water in a thermos for my baby's bottles since I mix cold boob juice in them as well. It works. All the other tips I totally agree with and use. Tommee tippee formula dispensers are the absolute best at night especially. I use formula within 1 hour during the first 3 months but I use within 2 hours after that (bc my baby takes long breaks during her feeds and when mixing with breastmilk it's complicated and I try not to waste by making small bottles but still...). 1 hour is the most conservative recommendation for liability reasons. It's wise when you have a newborn or medically fragile baby, but I've never had issues with using formula within 2 hours. To each her own though. I'm the type who'll eat meat that's been sitting out for 12 hours after reheating it lol.

Just fyi mixing breat milk with formula instead of water and formula is dangerous. Look into it

For myself personally.... The wipey warmer was good for the first three weeks. My son hated the cold until randomly he was okay with it. Add water if they are dried out as well that’s what we did and it worked great. The mobile.....my son actually loves this. He literally loves the noise and how it moves. It’s a calming technique for him. He’s 3 months. Swaddle me.....these are absolutely amazing! My son absolutely has to be swaddled. Again all babies are different, but he loves them and the sleep sacks from Target. An alternative to the tub is the one they sell through Walmart that monitors the temperature and their weight The bobby pillow is amazing for breastfeeding. I absolutely loved that one, but the pillow she recommended is a 10/20. It’s amazing and was a game changer for myself. The baby brezza is amazing. The only thing is you have to make sure the settings are correct so it makes the formula correctly. You also can’t have the formula below the line because yes then it will only be water and not formula. Also it has a temperature setting and my baby loves the highest temperature for his milk, which is convenient. Also makes night time feedings a lot easier. I should add that every parent is different and she had amazing advice for a lot of different things. I wish I had watched this video before I had my baby as well.

I appreciate all your feedback on products. My breast friend is the best breastfeeding people. One thing I would point out is that the magnetic bowls aren't safe for babies that have a pacemaker. The magnet can interfere with the pacemaker operation causing issues such as a really slow heart rate and breathing trouble. One of my family members had that issue with their child. Thanks for the video. It was informative and helpful. Best wishes to you, Joel, Ryleigh and baby girl #2.😁😊

I loved the mobile I had haha, I liked doing a nap time routine and using to play the music and let my baby just kinda watch it and fall asleep 😴

Using formula milk safely Powdered infant formula must be prepared as carefully as possible. It is not sterile, even though packets and tins of powder are sealed. Formula can contain bacteria such as Cronobacter sakazakii and, more rarely, salmonella. If the feed is not prepared safely, these bacteria can cause infections. This is rare, but can be life threatening. Very young babies are most at risk and it is better to use liquid ready-to-feed products for premature or low birth weight babies. It is essential to make up a fresh bottle for each feed and to throw away any unused formula within two hours.

My baby lovessss the mamaroo. I wasn’t going to because everyone keeps telling me not to. But I cook and eat on the couch while he stays on the mamaroo and I don’t have to get up from the couch to change the settings!

[@SaraOrgana]

We use the mobile in the pack and play. Our son loves it. You just have to be sure to get the light ones.

[@Oheyitsmandy1]

So many things added to the list. Thank you!

The wipe warmer is fantastic for cloth wipes! We do the GroVia wipes 12 at a time. LOVE!!!

[@fruitsofthespirit7009]

Do you just add water to them?

[@mountainmamacloth4441]

@@fruitsofthespirit7009 I add Baby Bits and water. I do one baby bit, just over half full HOT water and add twelve wipes.

Swaddle UP was ESSENTIAL for us. Our baby liked the swaddle me, but for a short period of time. The swaddle up is great for long term.

[@kateschrift7140]

I loved my mamaroo - or should I say baby girl loved it! I was forced to love my Elvie because there aren’t many options like it, though I did have problems with it pretty regularly. I also used my boppy for EVERYTHING ☺️ funny how some things work so well for some and not for others.

[@wolflover4life19]

I actually loved the swaddle mes lol. But I did love the zipper ones more! Way easy

Just ordered the boppycomfyfit after watching your video thanks for the recommendation I was looking for an easy to use and comfy carrier for ages I can't wait to walk on the beach with the little one 🥰🥰

My kids are wayyy past baby ages but I still like watching your baby videos. It’s amazing on how much baby items has changed from when I was having. Kids since 1995-2001 it’s amazing.

[@iamwhoyousayiam6773]

I'd like to hear! Like what products blow you away that are available now, and what were your favorites then?

[@lorylopez3667]

@@iamwhoyousayiam6773 oh god I don’t remember the names of the items I’ve used back then. My kids are now 25, 24, 20, 14. Lol! I don’t even try to use those products now. Sorry.

I like those crib sets because it grows with the baby. You can get creative with the decals- put them in frames and make them look like pieces of art. And then the quilt it comes with is perfect for when you transition your crib into a toddler bed. You can also use the quilt for Tummy Time and as a blanket in general because kids become adddiictteeddd to blankets and want to carry them everywhere around the house. I've even seen people use that quilt comforter on a dowel and makes a beautiful art piece too!

[@edithabarca4654]

Than you girl for this video!! Good bless you!!

[@blacknbatty]

Really great video. A lot of it is preference based, I personally love the boppy pillow and Velcro swaddles, and a lot of the original and alternatives are super pricey and not an option for everyone

[@haysannacartwright1615]

Thank you for telling me all of this! First time mom over here!! 😁

[@hagertj]

We loved the wipe warmer for my son. Definitely was a need for us. We did have to make sure to keep it wet but we had a routine for that and we went through them so much so that didn't have to worry about mold or anything. If we did not use the warm wipes when we changed him he peed all over every time, and I mean all over lol.

[@shakiahdial2]

Yes super useful for boys

[@curiouslytot1950]

Yes. Our baby HATED changes until with got our wipe warmer. The one we have does drying out and we have been using it 4 months with no mold issues.

[@adhdbookworm]

This is so informative. Thank you for mentioning all the alternatives and suggestions. Love it.

[@np6294]

I agree with so many of these! The mobile and the mamaroo were extremely helpful for me though with my child. He has GERD and colic and sometimes those are the only things that will help him to sleep. Granted, I got the projector mobile that rotated and had sounds. The crib set mobile was a total waste and the many parts to the set weren't usable either.

*Pump advice* spectra S2 is covered by insurance and S1 usually isn't fully and price difference is quite big. However you can order battery pack for S2 and it will be portable too with much less cost.

[@belladearmon8795]

it’s only a $50 difference! love the s1 more personal preference :)

[@TheGreenchik]

@@belladearmon8795 my insurance didn't even have option for co pay. It was either covered or not.

[@mamateer3445]

We LOVED the mamaroo!! First one didn’t care for it as much as our second but our second one loved it!! I know people who have two of them in their house cus they loved them so much
