EVERYTHING I Bought For My Baby | MINIMAL

These are my favorite types of videos!!!! I would LOVE if you did essentials for age ranges (0-3, 3-6, etc..). Especially with a sustainable, ethical, minimal approach!! So thankful for all the ways you’ve influenced me and made me a better mother, wife, and woman of God.

I completely agree about making night feeding as easy as possible. I bought a cheap bassinet with my first kid and HATED it. Ended up bed sharing which made breastfeeding easier but this time I getting a better one. The one you purchased is what I want so can't wait to hear how you feel about it!

[@kolielynn4144]

Bed sharing is only dangerous when mom or dad has a sleeping disorder, on a street drug, or prescribed a narcotic. The suffocation rate is so low world wide bc most do not get narcotics prescribed on discharge. US is near 100%.

[@juliequates9529]

I just got rid of my Halo bassinet. It is very heavy and hard to move. And I felt like I wanted to be able to move it around more easily. Our bed is also very low so I couldn't get it low enough to have baby at a convenient height. But it's great quality and the vibrating thing was nice. Just my 2 cents. I've gotten rid of so much since baby number 1.

[@jennifercate8996]

LOVE that muslin quilt! We have sooooo many Muslin blankets because I used them for EVERYTHING... as spit up, to wipe spit up, to swaddle, to put on the grass, on the floor, over the car seat, over the baby ... and my now almost four year old *still* uses them. She carry’s one around almost all the time when she’s in the house and they’re great for summer time, because she ALWAYS wants to be covered up, but it’s hot. They’ve been so useful to us!

Please do not use car seat strap covers that didn’t come with the car seat! Your car seat will not have been saftey tested with the strap covers and can significantly compromise the saftey of the car seat!! For example, When the padding compresses in a crash, it could make the straps too loose to keep baby secured.

Just want to add it might also void the carseats warranty.

[@RS-qp6qz]

I am four months postpartum and this time around I have been much more intentional about what we have used so far. There are so many baby products that are adorable but not necessarily practical for us. Or they are only used for such a short period of time that I tend to pass on those items since the newborn stage goes by so quickly. I also bought more swaddle blankets this time for the exact same reason. I did splurge and got a really nice bouncy seat this time around too. Most of our larger items with our oldest daughter were hand me downs from when my nephew was a baby so we did end up needing some newer items. I was much more careful in my selections since I had a better grasp on what to expect. I pretty much went into full prepping mode around where you are in pregnancy. I got so much done 😂. I also did a lot more this time around to prepare for labor and delivery. I was able to have a successful vbac! And now our youngest daughter is here and I can’t imagine life any other way. So excited for you and your sweet family. Praying for a safe delivery for you and baby. You’ve got this momma!! Oh and something that really helped me prepare mentally was a Christian hypnobirthing video I would listen to on KZbin. It was just breathing techniques while listening to scripture. It was so peaceful and helped me to focus on Christ and prepare my mind for what was ahead. The video is by Paper Tiger Mama.

[@goldentipzgtyt3509]

Haaka is great for clogged ducts. If you put super hot water and a tablespoon of Epsom salt, it will draw the clog out. Repeat if necessary! This is the best remedy.

[@Wobblewobble122]

I love the Hakka but keep in mind, I learned from my lactation nurse, it only gets out the form milk and the hindmilk is the most important. I think that’s how it was… Basically, all the fat and good stuff is after what the Hakka gets out. So make sure that you mix that milk with milk that you’ve pumped so they’re still getting all the nutrients in fats!

[@EmeryShae]

I always only nursed my baby on one side per feed for this reason. I never had milk supply issues and my babies got all that lovely hind milk 💕

[@Wobblewobble122]

Same here, but I definitely had a lot of letdowns/leaks on the other side while I was feeding. I was using this for a while and then I was talking to a lactation person because it was my first time with a kid so I was just making sure everything was going correctly. And that’s where I learned about the Hokka when I was using that to just collect the milk so it wasn’t wasted. I had no idea before but she just said it’s fine to use, but your child will be hungry sooner because it doesn’t have all that extra good stuff that helps fill them up :-)

[@BookloverFantasy92]

Maybe a Hakka will be good for me for before feeds… I have a huge let down, and my son had trouble getting the fatty milk because of it. Hmmm

Haakaa is soooo good! I never once used a normal pump for 3.5 years of feeding my kids but always had a huge amount in the freezer snd was able to donate to 2 other babies to just from the haakaa while feeding on the other

[@esyavolchek5134]

LOVE all the blankets, and Haakaa pump is bomb. I got an Elvie and that increased my milk supply and allowed me to run errands while I pumped, while also distracting me from pumping. If you're open to trying out other strollers, I loved my buggaboo and Uppababy (we got both used) since I could run with them off road, and they had good turn radius/stability for New England fall/winter. I could pop the bassinets right off if baby fell asleep and bring them inside sleeping.

So I’m a first time mom, and I’ve been watching so many of your videos. I just love them. But would you definitely recommend minimizing as a first time mom? I’m trying to budget, but also get the things I need at the same time. And of course family will help, but I just wanted to know your thoughts? Also could you maybe do a video of maturnity clothing staples that you have found could be stylish? I’m 13 weeks so I don’t have much of a bump yet, but I’ve tried hacks BC recently a lot of my clothes have been really tight and uncomfortable on my belly, and they help.

The nursing pillow is GENIUS

[@riannenadelsrn]

I am so excited and I’m so curious if it will be a boy or girl. You have such a lovely family Sarah. I watch your vlogs with so much pleasure. I wish you all the best. 🍀🥰

I'm definitely not a minimalist, but interestingly to me I don't have nearly as much for our upcoming fifth baby. Carseat, diapers, a wrap, one hat, one blanket, three burp cloths and 7 newborn sleepers 😂 I co-sleep and breastfeed and don't use any baby gear. Still, not claiming to be a minimalist. Just an interesting observation.

I personally don't swaddle because I want them to wake up regularly to nurse 😊 That startle reflex is so important.

I had the same impression-I’m not a “minimalist” and I don’t have as much stuff as she has.

Due date twins (our first baby)! ✨ I found your channel last year, looking forward to watching your old/new videos about raising kids!

I loved this video, the soft music, all the gratitude and nesting 💕

The car seat strap covers are not safe. The only ones that are safe are the ones that came with the seat.

She knows that. She’s said it herself before, yet still chooses to do it. 🥴

why?

[@ellebee511]

@@jestem.mrowka.bigbitowka5238 if it didn’t come with the seat that means it hasn’t been crash tested with the seat. If you get into an accident those strap covers can cause the straps to slide down & baby can be ejected from the seat & also the car.

@@ellebee511 I guess the straps could make the straps that loose and fall off. I thought what's more likely with any age is that in the case of an accident or sudden stop, their bodies continue to move in motion until the straps stop them, which can still cause various serious injuries to their heads and whatnot. Same principle as why to not put kids in their car seats with puffer jackets on.

I am so excited. Yesterday I thought "Please post another video. Or tell us, you're having your baby now. ... is Sarah fine? Lord, please be with Sarah and her family." Thanks for the update. 😊

[@Kay-lt3wx]

On point as always! So many giggles through this video, thanks for always making us smile, Sarah. Had to share with my sister-in-law who will be a new mama this winter. You gave some great tips! ❤🤙👌

So satisfying watching you put together the bassinet 😍

I LOVED having the halo with my second boy! I didn’t have it with my first and it was a game changer especially having a high bed as well. And when nursing he was close and convenient and it made getting up at night multiple times a BREEZE.
