What type of stroller will work best for you and your baby? It really depends on where you plan on taking her in the stroller and what you plan on doing. Let’s take a quick look at the three major models

Traditional Stroller

It works well in the city, and walking around on pavement or concrete paths. Most models have a basket below for storage. Some of them come with cup holders, side pockets for extra storage etc. Models that combine a car seat with stroller are also available.
Umbrella Stroller

These are the small, simple strollers that fold down so they don’t take up much more space than an umbrella. Consider getting one of these in addition to your main stroller and keep it in the car. They are easy to load and unload, easy to open and put back together.

Baby Jogger

If you will be walking on rougher terrain or are planning on doing a lot of walking or running for exercise, choose a baby jogger. The larger wheels give you and baby a smoother ride.

Have you ever thought about making your own baby wipes?
It’s actually much easier than you may think. I have always liked the idea of homemade baby wipes, because they are more economical and you know exactly what’s going on your baby’s delicate skin.

All you need is a roll of paper towels, a sharp knife, some warm water, baby soap, and baby oil. An old wipes container will come in handy as well.

Use the knife to cut the roll of paper towels into two smaller rolls. Remove the cardboard center from one of the rolls. Combine 2 cups of warm water with ¼ cup of baby oil and ¼ cup of baby soap in a large bowl. Put the paper towels in the solution and let them soak completely. Pour off any excess liquid and transfer the paper towels turned baby wipes into the old wipes container. Use as you would any commercial baby wipes.

Almost every baby will get diaper rash at some point or another. It’s no surprise since their bottoms are almost constantly covered in a diaper.

A diaper rash will start with a little redness in the diaper area, which can quickly develop into raw, painful sore spots. Catch diaper rash as early as possible to keep your child from getting to the painful stage of it.

To keep diaper rash at bay, use a diaper rash cream at the first sign of redness. The cream will form a barrier between the skin and the wetness from the diaper.

One of the best ways to clear up diaper rash is to let your child go without a diaper as much as possible. Put your baby on large towel or let her run around outside (if you have a private backyard) with a bare bottom. This allows the bottom to stay dry and will heal the rash quickly.

Young babies wake up every few hours, which can be quite exhausting for mom. The days of getting 8 or even 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep are gone for a while. You’ve probably heard this before: sleep when the baby sleeps. Go ahead! Take a nap or two during the day while your baby sleeps. You may be tempted to catch up on laundry, do the dishes or pick up around the living room. Don’t do it. Your baby needs a mom who’s as rested and rejuvenated as possible.

Pass some of the household chores on to your spouse and accept some help from friends and family members. Lay down for that catnap and get some sleep whenever you can those first few weeks.
