Reacting To My Baby Registry ONE YEAR LATER | Regrets, Favorites, Things I Wish We Added | IVF Baby

[@nekiyamonea]

As a first time mom to be this was sooo helpful. Creating a registry is overwhelming and I cried twice. Thank you for helping me out!

[@Destinysshirley]

Hey mama! I've followed along on your journey and am a mom of a 2 year old. Please be careful with gripe water! We were warned so many times that it's not safe for babies truly. There has been lots of recalls and babies choking because of it and some of them have alcohol in them 😮

We started with a convertible car seat (the nuna rava) from day one. While carrying the baby outside and then having the nurse stand awkwardly by the car while we strapped him in to bring him home was stressful everything else about it had been fantastic. We also went with the halo breathable mattress and I absolutely love it. It could be a coincidence but our son wouldn’t sleep anywhere but on a parent or in a snuggle me until we tried his crib and he has been sleeping in it since 3ish months old. The covers zip right off and just like the newton you can pop the insert in the shower and hose it down.

This video could not have come at a better time as we're trying to start putting together our registry! Literal gold. Respect your opinion and research so much, thanks for sharing!

[@macdingle]

Wait I feel like I definitely missed a massive chapter because I didn't realize you were pregnant 🥹 that is so incredible oh my goodness I'm so happy for you!!!

[@HuffleZPuffle]

@macdingle were about 13 weeks and I'm just now finally getting energy back to even catch up on your videos. Thank you!

Artipoppe is 1000% worth it! All the carriers meant for higher weights and support seemed too bulky and complicated. I like how simplistic the Artipoppe is. Used it on several flights and it was so easy to take on and off myself.

[@macdingle]

Thank you!! I'm influenced 😂

[@genesisilly7093]

Get the Mabe Carrier! They’re almost identical to the artipop and only $120! Love love love mine

Ok the electric file is necessary! The clippers shorten the nails but don't make them any less like tiny sharp razors. The file is the way.

We got Graco from the get-go. Someone had given me a stroller so I didn’t have a choice but they served me well. Lucas grew out of his baby one by 8m, and we switched to the 4everDLX, someone got it for us. Mac how are our babies ONE! I can’t believe his birthday is next week 😭

[@tinaepstein8763]

Yes get the Doona 100%

[@mariannel9084]

We have the momcozy baby monitor and it’s amazing!

[@singinforthehula]

My daughter is turning one next week and I couldn’t agree more with you on this all! Hindsight is 20/20 😅

[@macdingle]

I had no idea how much personality a newborn could actually have 😂❤

[@madelinecobbmueller1172]

The Artipoppe was beautiful but we only used it when baby was little before they could be forward facing - it doesn't have good structure for baby facing out or being on your back. After baby was big enough to face out we switched to a Baby Bjorn so they could face in, face out, or be on our back. Overall it was kinda disappointing because the Artipoppe felt so special (I received mine as a hand-me-down from a friend) but 18 months later the Bjorn still lives in the car and is used all the time.

[@annielewis266]

If you don’t want the high price tag with the Artipoppe, I can’t say enough good things about my Wildbird carrier! I got it when my baby was a newborn and we’re still using it at 8 months. It’s so sturdy!

[@macdingle]

We loved our Wildbird for a bit and it's such a great option! Our girl just couldn't wait to face out and we were bummed to know that wasn't a setting on those, but I'm excited to have it for the earlier weeks for our next babe!

Which packing cubes do you use?

[@beckyyyleighh]

This makes me want another baby 🤣🤣🤣

[@kstromm6361]

I used a nuna that fit with the veer wagon, I used the wagon as** a shopping cart when getting groceries and it SAVED me. and now she loves sitting in the wagon. Maybe your little girl would like a wagon and not a stroller ❤

[@macdingle]

you used a wagon AND a shopping cart grocery shopping?? Tell me you had an extra set of hands oh my gosh lol super mom ❤

[@anniestyle2784]

i agree with the disposable pads. i hated the reusable ones and they felt so uncomfortable for me and they were so hard to keep track of lol

[@macdingle]

I just could not and still cannot imagine having to keep track of one more thing 😅❤

[@kstromm6361]

I love my wild bird but I found it so so hard to switch from a front carry to a back carry. I ended up buying a Tula baby baby/toddler carrier because it was a front and back carry. I’d love a hope and plum front and back baby carrier for my next little one.

[@baileywhite531]

YESSS. I hated this about wildbird. When they get older back carry is ESSENTIAL. I need it to be effortless switching to and from front carry and back. Sakura Bloom, Happy Baby, Lenny Lamb, and Hope and plum are some AMAZING baby carrier brands. 🎉❤

First❤❤❤ hi Mac

[@macdingle]

Hi!! ❤

[@PB-sm5ol]

Which convertible car seat did you switch to? I love your videos ❤

[@macdingle]

@@PB-sm5ol We have this one and we love it! bit.ly/4cDC1jq

[@hayleyblake3311]

I tried multiple carriers with my first baby and always had things I didn’t like about each one. My mom gifted me the artipoppe for baby #2 and it’s everything I wanted in a carrier! 100% worth it in my opinion, especially if a very generous family member will gift it to you :)

[@macdingle]

Thank you!! That's all the convincing I need 😂
