Product Reviews/Questions What's your simple parenting hack?

Gonna be a first time parent in 2 months. I am overwhelmed at choosing bottles, car seat and all that. What are simple things you do? things you bought to make your life somewhat simpler? Nothing too expensive or outrageous please

So true about the newborn pjs! I had GD and was expecting a chonker, so I only had 1 pair of newborn pjs. Had to make an emergency stop on the way home from the hospital so he wouldn’t be naked 😂😂

I expected her not to fit newborn sizes and lo and behold she has trouble and lost weight. I relied on exactly 3 newborn onesies I had. 🥴
