Getting a baby’s passport photo taken against a white background is often a nightmare. My hack is to wear a big white shirt or cloth, and let my baby sit my lap to get the photo taken! Baby feels a lot more safe and calm while I’m holding him, hence we are able to get a good shot of him with a clean background 😂! #MumHacks
Placing pump parts in the fridge and wash them at the end of the day. Saves time and sanity by washing them once instead of multiple times during the day. For those exclusive pumping, it also helps to pump 30 minutes or an hour before baby's feeding time, to minimize the need to warm up the chilled breastmilk. #MumHacks
Use remaining breast milk bags to pack 1 serving of milk powder when going out or overseas! Just pour and throw! Easy to keep in bag too! #MumHacks Bring collapsible cup so that you can take hot water from baby changing rooms in mall to warm your breast milk before serving! 🥰
When child wants to play but you just want to rest, there are 2 kinds of play time you can try. 1. Play doctor and you are the patient. Lay down on your "hospital" bed for a check up. 2. Draw the sleeping Mama. Get yourself comfortable and let your child draw you. 😄
After drying all baby bottles, i will add distilled water and stock them. I will also prepare formula milk in milk dispensers so it's easier to mix for my babe's consumption. this reduces the time it takes to prepare the milk on each feeding.
Invest on a unisex military/backpack instead of fancy diaper bag for more compartments, easy for baby necessities such as milk bags and bottles storage. Just dump in and we are good to go! One less worry! Happy parents, happy baby! #MumHacks
Pack a bottle of mama choice disinfectant spray in your diaper bag and you can sanitize everything from your baby palms to his toys to the baby chair and even the changing station in the toilet. Absolutely baby safe! #MumHacks yay!
Placed a clean wrap-transparent on the table while serving baby food, so easy to clean up without a mess from either the cook food like porridge or finger food 😉#MumHacks
Having an app for tracking feeding times and expressing of milk so as to prepare the milk on schedule and to prevent child from waiting too long.
We gave our baby 2 bolsters, each of it printed with daddy's and mummy's faces. He feels safe next to it and sleep on his own through the night.
