I hope you guys have been enjoying these nest with me's! Unless baby girl makes an early appearance, I'm planning on posting one more nest with me next week! :)
You don't give yourself enough credit!! You definitely know what you are doing! I'm probably your mom's age... That said, I did none of this postpartum stuff ( had not bought anything and was pretty much clueless...I came home from the hospital and thought, "what's dermplast?! But, soon figured it all out. I guess that's how it was in '97...) I mean seriously, I was even a full-time nanny at the time, a graduate in childhood development & psychology, and well, this stuff was just not common to know and do. I just had the book, "What To Expect While You're Expecting," & a few others😉 It does seem convenient to have those baskets with necessities! People are just more schooled in these areas, now. I bet your mom might agree? I DID have the bassinet set-up like that though😊 Wow what it would have been like to have had Amazon back then. You are doing awesome, and other first time mom's could learn so much just by using your vids as reference. Wishing you ALL the best!! ( Is Bucky feeling left out yet? ) heehee
"I want to miminize postpartum on anyone coming to stay with us".... Mama! This should be the other way around! If people are coming to stay with you after baby's here, THEY should help you minimize post-partum! Of course they can't help with glorious stuff that's happening to you "down there" but for the rest, postpartum is a real adjustment they should be helping you with! 😘😘
As a mom of 5 I always had a caddy next to my bed with a foldable mat in that I could just through on the bed and change baby. That was the easiest and meant I didn't have to get up and baby had minimal movement etc in the middle of the night. I kept my change pad in the nursery as I loved making her/his room part of our daily routine. We would dress baby there during the day, play on the mat there, read books etc and enjoy the space we spent so much time decorating. I think you are doing an awesome job and all your ideas are going to benefit you hugely.
I use one of the uglier swaddle blankets we got as gifts and hand-me-downs. Just lay it at the foot of the bed while your sleeping. Baby wakes up. Change. Feed. Sleep. Boom 💥
This is me right now! 35 weeks pregnant and finishing the nursery this week (if all goes well)... the nesting instinct is real! Prayers for a swift and smooth delivery, mama! :-)
Definitely just change her in your bed! You probably won’t wanna get up and walk to a different spot in the middle of the night. I’ve always used a small travel changing pad that folds up and works for changing on the bed! But looks great mama! Every mom and baby is different in a system and organization that works for them. There’s lots of learning as you go those first few weeks. But looks like you’re as prepared as possible!
We want to start trying for a baby in around a year, so I love watching these for the future. I’m excited to see most needed items, what you wish you had, etc.!
I would just use a changing mat to use on your bed because you’re not gonna want to get out of bed every time to change diapers. Personally that’s what worked for me and made diaper changes super quick in the middle of the night.
I would put your changing pad in your room, or have another changing mat handy, since baby girl will need diaper changes in the middle of the night and you may not want to go back and forth to the nursery to change her diaper! I know some people just use a gathre mat or something on their bed if you want to leave your changing mat in the nursery. Congrats on baby girl coming!
Thank you Carly! I think I'm going to leave the big changing pad in her nursery since the dresser is on the opposite side of our room and then I'll keep a changing mat right next to me and baby girl. Thanks for the tip :)
I am also 38 weeks pregnant right now with a baby girl and I laughed out loud when you started talking about how much the stairs wind you. YESS GIRL LAMO 😆
Love your nesting videos! Had my second a month ago and I could definitely recommend getting ice packs for your recovery. I didn’t have them with my first and using them in the first few days after the hospital made a world of a difference!
In my opinion all the late night diaper changes are going to end up happening on your bed anyways so leave the keekaroo pad in her nursery and just have extra swaddles by your bed to lay down for messy changes! 💗
I put the nose suckers close by because as a newborn they choke on the fluids first couple days, And you have to suck it out of the mouth to help them sometimes at least all three of my babies did
Too many changing stations. You probably need two one for downstairs with cady and one for bedroom. Seeing as you have so little space i would sugest foldabla changing pad tuckes in cady and just change in bed. Also put her sleepers in bedroom because probably you will end up with some mess in middle of night or early morning and last thing you want is go to her nursery. I would also put most of her clothes for 0-3 month in your clothet as you will probably change her there. I honestly do not understand the whole nursery thing an feeding chair in separate room, it is like setting uourself to failure in brestfeeding. You will probably end up brestfeeding in bed anyway they wake up a lot.
This video is awesome! I would love to learn more if it's possible to sponsor you for our upcoming collab projects and you will be also receiving our initial email about "Room For A Brand Sponsorship?" thank you so much!

Bucky is doing a heck of a job supervising all this baby prep!
He's the world's best supervisor! I can only imagine how great of a baby sitter he'll be 😂 just kidding!

🤗 it's like looking into a mirror! I'm 35 weeks and I've been nesting my caddies/stations this week! I'm loving it!
Same!!
We want to start trying for a baby in around a year, so I love watching these for the future. I’m excited to see most needed items, what you wish you had, etc.!
Ahhh! That's so exciting - congrats! I'll be sure to share our must haves in future videos once she makes her appearance!

Thanks for the tip! I'm sure this is what I'll end up doing too!
I’ll be 34wks on Saturday and your nesting videos have given me the swift kick I needed to finish organizing everything, for my baby 😂❤️

@@AllisonMcPhail yes I just used a mat on our bed in our room!! Then the pad in the nursery on the dresser :)
I am also 38 weeks pregnant right now with a baby girl and I laughed out loud when you started talking about how much the stairs wind you. YESS GIRL LAMO 😆
Same!!
I have to hype myself up so much to go up and down them 😂I count it as my workout for the day!
@@AllisonMcPhail I hear ya! The stairs is like running a sprint .
Congrats on your new baby coming. You have no idea how in love you are about to fall :)
Ahhh! This comment gives me butterflies! I can't wait to meet her :)
Love your nesting videos! Had my second a month ago and I could definitely recommend getting ice packs for your recovery. I didn’t have them with my first and using them in the first few days after the hospital made a world of a difference!
Good to know! I'll be sure to stock up!
Good work beautiful sharing
Amando ver seus vídeos, e a organização do quarto do seu baby. 😍🥰🇧🇷❤️

Thanks for the tips!
Tucks are the best!!! Have plenty around!! And when u pack ur hosp bag take ur own pillow bc the ones at hospitals stink!!:)❤️
So good to know! Definitely bringing extra pillows for me and Christian!
Hi Alison you are doing great. I'd have changing pad in your room also for night time. Love the baskets for changing baby. Xx
I put the nose suckers close by because as a newborn they choke on the fluids first couple days, And you have to suck it out of the mouth to help them sometimes at least all three of my babies did
I love your nesting videos.
I'm so glad!
So exciting! Where did you get the side table that's next to your crib??
If these are still available I used small water proof lap pads for the supper soaker. I used them everywhere I laid the baby.
ahhhhhh i am so excited for you!!
Thank you Alyssa! I can't wait to have her here and actually get to use all the baby things!
