Mom Hacks: Part 2
No time to read? Just click and listen! AUDIO VERSION for on-the-go! ~ LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE to my channel!!! THANKS!
Ok Moms, so here are some more hacks or helpful things I use for helping me stay sane, the kids out of the ER and things easy!
Here we go!!!
HACK #1
Every mom, especially stay-at-home moms, must have wireless BLUETOOTH earphones! If you still want to somehow be connected to civilization and your hands are full at all times, this is your ticket. You're welcome! But Just remember to hook it up to the charger at night for crying out loud. LOL!
HACK #2
If you need to ease your mind from one less ER trip, your heart stopping or a couple stitches, then you need to get you some "corner table foam bumpers!" Now you can rest when you're little one gets around corners acting wild and running like an animal. However, this is not a substitute for you letting your little one fall out because floors still hurt and especially public floors...FYI
HACK #3
This one is a freebie that you more than likely have in your bathroom somewhere and that's an "elastic hair tie." You can make it as tight as you'd like. To make it easy to go in and out, you can just wrap it around one side several times and then about 2 times around the other knob for easy access for you to get in and out only.
EXHIBIT A - Right
My bathroom cabinet on my side that my 13 month-old loves to go in and take everything out of. Now I do let him sometimes when I'm in there doing my hair or something because it buys me a good 20 minutes. Hallelu!
HACK #4
Car Mirrors are great for newborns and even through to toddlerhood so you can see them while you drive. I love it because if he's eating a snack, I can see him in case he chokes or something. This came in handy a lot when he was starting solids especially. So if he's pooping (*sad face), or if he's asleep (*hands raised), I can see what's going on at all times pretty much. They can see you too depending on the angle so it's a win-win.
HACK #5
I don't know about you but I CAN-NOT stand it when their bottle or sippy cup gets lost in the house or is left out without me knowing it too long and I have to pour it out. That makes me hott as some fish grease! These bottles have worked really well at keeping everything fresh and cold (or warm for your breastmilk) for HOURSSSS in these instances! I use the Insulated line of Pura bottles and Munchkin for their cups. Both can also be purchased at Walmart and Munchkin at Target.
I hope at least one of these can be of some benefit to you. Let me know in the comments below!
In the meantime, have a wonderful week and remember, you're already AH-MAZING!
