Incredibly Helpful Newborn Hacks for New Moms

#1 Have baby wipes everywhere –

Can’t tell you how versatile and incredibly helpful these wipes are for newborns. You can get organic bamboo fibered wipes for the baby. They are much more gentle than the polyester ones.

#2 Use swaddle with Velcro or stick-on

Swaddling a baby right is an art when you can’t master the art quickly, use a swaddle with a Velcro or stick-on tapes to keep it in its place easily.

#3 Use a humidifier in the room

It keeps the blocked nose way cleaner.

#4 Any machine that makes noise

Infants love noise! Believe it or not, they like noise – the most bizarre ones. I had one of those toys that made soothing noise. Babies like all kinds of noise – noisy fan, noisy vacuum cleaner etc.

#5 Use a Baby carrier

Babies love to be held close to the mom. Keep your hands free with the use of a baby carrier. Get an ergonomic baby carrier or use a baby wrap. Put the baby in the carrier and go about your daily work. They love being this snug.

#6 Trim nails while the baby is sleeping

Quite self-explanatory, right? To reduce their hand movement and giving you the shock of your life, trim nails with baby nail scissors when they are sleeping.

#7 Sleep when the baby sleeps

Don’t be the sleep-deprived mom. Sleep when the baby sleeps. Take at least two naps in the day.

#8 keep a water bottle next to your bed/ feeding nook

If you are breastfeeding – please stay hydrated. A lot of water content is going away. Place a water bottle next to the bed or the feeding chair and drink while you are feeding. Plain water works best.

#9 make a dedicated diaper changing station

Keep everything stocked in this diaper changing station – diapers, wipes, powders, clothes. It will be great if this caddy is on wheels you can take it at any room of your house.

#10 Take help

If the husband wants to help, take the help. If your mom/ mom-in-law or any family members want to help take the help. Utilize that time to rest, self-care or just be on your own.
