GRIPE WATER

Gripe water is from Jesus himself! Anytime Kessler is feeling fussy for no reason, I throw a little gripe water in her mouth and she is good to go. She loves the taste and it can help settle her tummy and give her something good to taste. We also give her Gripe Water right before any rounds of shots so she has something pleasant going on. We have found that it can distract her from the pain and give her some temporary relief.

KIINDE TWIST POUCHES

These are a great way to pump, store, heat, and feed baby all in one bag with no transfers. They connect directly to an electric pump and they can be put straight into the fridge or freezer. When you are ready to feed the baby a bottle, the milk heats up much more evenly and quickly in these bags than in a bottle. Once the milk is warm, you can pop the Kiinde nipple on and feed your baby from the same bag that you originally pumped the milk into. Easy peasy!

LITTLE GIRAFFE LUXE BLANKET

Kessler spends most of her day snuggled up in her little giraffe blanket. It is extremely soft and washes really well. I lay it in her dock-a-tot for an afternoon snooze and I snuggle her up in it when I am holding her. It makes her cozy no matter where she is or who is holding her.

Pro tip: This is sold at Nordstrom, and they will monogram your baby’s name on the blanket for free if you purchase it from them.
