I am going to do a series on the best mommy advise I every received. The first piece of advice that comes to minds is in the area of organization. One of the hardest things about having a new baby is figuring out how to lug all of your stuff around. One way to make this part easier is to carry a small diaper bag with you. Just place the essentials inside, enough for 2 or 3 diaper changes and a small item of clothing for emergencies.
In your vehicle, however, keep the mother load. Have a large diaper bag with enough for your entire outing and several clothing changes. If you drive more than one vehicle, put one bag in each car. The only hard part is to check it regularly and update the sizes in the large bag. Remembering to check gets harder when the baby becomes a toddler and may not change sizes as frequently.
I loved this piece of advice because I didn't have to be weighed down with "stuff" all of the time. I was prepared for accidents, extended outings (i.e. something keeps you out longer than expected), and when you inevitably forget something important at home. I was glad for this spare bag many days.
If you have the best mommy advice ever, please leave me a comment or email.
