Who doesn’t want all the tricks to make mom life easier?? So these are real, awesome mom tips and tricks you’ll actually use. They are so good, you’ll wish you knew about them sooner!
1. Keep binkies clean in your purse using portion cups.
No more crumb-encrusted binkies over here!
2. When baby has a poop-splosion, take the onesie off from the shoulders down, not up over her head.
The shoulders are meant to stretch. (Duh, why have I never done it like that!?)
3. Keep diapers and wipes in every room your kids frequent.
This way, you don’t have to always lug your kids upstairs to their room to change them. So smart!!
We also keep wipes on all of our floors to easily clean up messes.
4. Use Velcro cord ties to keep baby socks on.
Those babies like to kick!
The cord tie should never be too tight on baby and don’t use these on a baby who could take it off.
5. Tie those poopy diapers up in a scented baggie before throwing in the diaper genie.
Double bag if it’s really bad. It helps immensely with the smell.
With our last baby, the diaper pail was making our nursery smell terrible, so this mom hack may be the trick we need!
6. Bouncing on a big exercise ball with your newborn helps to calm them almost immediately.
It’s worth a try if they’re fed, burped, and changed and still unhappy.
7. Put water in a binky and freeze it for instant teething relief.
8. Use a laundry basket to keep your babies from falling in the bathtub and to keep toys from floating away.
9. Cut those tight elastics out of your little girl’s hair with a seam ripper.
*Make sure the seam ripper is only cutting the elastic and doesn’t catch any hair.
