We didn't buy a chair before Linden came and my mother in law gave us a rocking chair that belonged to mike's mom. I was hesitant at first because we just don't have room for it, but that thing is firmly planted in the middle of the living room now! I make everyone walk around it/deal with it because it's the only place I've sat down in the past few months! :Pkaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-15906695157534098112014-10-08T20:26:48.744-05:002014-10-08T20:26:48.744-05:00So glad you like it!

You know, I'd love to whip up a "new mom essentials" list but mine would literally be: coffee, netflix, comfortable lounge clothes. that's what i've be living off of for the past 11 weeks! :Pkaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-1445969704739324412014-10-08T15:16:04.769-05:002014-10-08T15:16:04.769-05:00Love love love this list!

What a nifty idea. :)<br /><br />My nursing pillow is a godsend (still using it, 14 months later) and I'm with Caitlin on the glider/rocking chair. Mad props if it's squishy, because cuddling should absolutely be a marathon event and you need comfort. :)<br /><br />Love the list! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10077778772596357680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-77833238149362410312014-10-07T20:16:11.544-05:002014-10-07T20:16:11.544-05:00It's so effective!It's so effective!kaelah beauregardehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296368974798527373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-42688523530800513702014-10-07T20:15:47.510-05:002014-10-07T20:15:47.510-05:00Haha right?!

I am loving these lists of yours! Can you tell me a little more about which app you're using? When I search for it, there's a few options that pop up and if it is as great as it sounds, then I want to make sure I grab the right one!

I have like 3 of them because they're so cheap. <br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Lamaze-Cotton-Spandex-Nursing-Maternity/dp/B002K6F7BE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412701972&sr=8-1&keywords=lamaze+nursing+bra<br /><br />H&M has cute nursing tank tops (and regular nursing tops) that I wear a lot.<br /><br />http://www.hm.com/us/product/29912?article=29912-A<br /><br />We bought a bunch of Gerber cloth diapers (just the squares, not diaper shaped) and we have them all over the house. I use them as burp cloths and I put them against my non-nursing boob when it leaks. Because they're diapers they're VERY absorbent.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008VAOXD6/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B008VAOXD6&linkCode=as2&tag=aparoflat-20#<br /><br />I'd also recommend the Pack 'n Play with Bassinet attachment (or the 4moms Breeze!). Amelia slept in the bassinet in our room until very recently and it was great. Very convenient and easier than having a giant crib in our room.<br /><br />We got the Britax B-Safe travel system. Cheaper than the Quinny (though not as cool looking, haha). <br /><br />I'd also recommend a half-decent glider or rocking chair. Amelia doesn't love sitting but if I'm rocking she's generally much happier. :)<br /><br />Great list! <3Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02229984816043087812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-58354957856050328552014-10-07T11:17:00.182-05:002014-10-07T11:17:00.182-05:00i can't say enough about the nosefrida and mam...i can't say enough about the nosefrida and mamaroo! so good!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00914359562722869121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-37473726895423422862014-10-07T10:00:02.474-05:002014-10-07T10:00:02.474-05:00ooooh yes.

We tried the medela bottles our pump came with, we tried some bottles from Walmart we bought, we tried a couple different nipples and Audra had the worst gas pain. Finally I gave up and picked up the Avent bottles that I thought wouldn't work and they have been magical. She LOVES them. It's all we use now. Luckily I received about five via baby showers and we are cycling through the dishwasher fast enough that we haven't had to buy any extras. What I find funny about that, though, is that the whole point of those bottles is that the nipples mimic breastfeeding, and Audra drinks from that bottle like a champ but still can't breastfeed.<br /><br />My daughter indeed.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350081014792894722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840382153011642380.post-34678091432955919822014-10-07T09:01:22.539-05:002014-10-07T09:01:22.539-05:00The nosefrida sounds so gross but so cool at the s...The nosefrida sounds so gross but so cool at the same time.
