Getting the hang of things!

19 July 2008
Michelle Nordlorh (Pregnant)

Molly is 6 weeks old now and I really think I'm getting the hang of things.  I finally have the confidence to take her places on my own.  My Mountain Buggy is getting lots of miles on it - primarily in the mall!  It's great to have the freedom to shop!  A few nights ago Molly moved from a bassinet in our bedroom to her crib in her nursery.  The transition has gone smoothly.  She has grown over 3 inches since birth and gained over 3 pounds!  I can't believe how fast my little one is growing!

As a new mom I am learning that some of the baby gear available is absolutely great while some items just don't seem worth it.  Here is my list of new mommy must have's:

  • Lots of swaddling blankets - the stretchier the better!
  • A GOOD stroller - such as a Mountain Buggy
  • A swing - a must have if you ever want to eat a meal
  • A breast pump - if you are a nursing mom
  • Some toys - babies get bored and need entertainment, even when they are little
  • Baby stain remover - it has saved many of Molly's cute outfits
  • Diaper cream - prevents diaper rash and keeps that baby butt cute!
