mushie Baby Hooded Towel | Organic Cotton (Blush)
My baby hated her diaper changed from day one. I never put this on my registry just simply because I didn’t think I needed it. But she now no longer anticipates a cold wipe!
Baby Diaper Wipe Warmers
My fiancé bought this for our almost 3 month old. She loves it! She can be screaming and crying and as soon as we turn this on, she’s quiet. The only thing that could make this projector better is if you could adjust the brightness.

I’m blown away how long and cold the Momcozy coolers keeps my breast milk. The only regret I have is not putting it on my registry and waiting too long to buy it. It’s easy to wash, and holds so much!

First off it’s so hard to find safe and healthy skin products for babies. But then I found Earth Mama’s Baby Wash. I love the scent, it’s not too strong, it’s just right. I also use it to make my own baby wipes! And lastly, it lasts forever!

I loved loved this wrap! I love that it’s cotton, soft, and comfortable to wear. I loved the brown color so that my fiancé could wear it as well. I use this to wear my baby when I needed to be hands free.

You can use any kind of coconut oil but you’ll need about 2 TBS, more or led depending on how moisturizing you like them to be.

Then add in your 2TBS soap and coconut oil. Then dump half of it over your paper towels and flip the roll and dump the other half of ...
