Nanny to Mommy

Co-sleeping is a hot topic of debate that frequently divides rooms of mothers. Supporters of co-sleeping are of the mindset that a parent’s bed is where an infant belongs while those opposed to it argue that it is just downright dangerous.

People choose to co-sleep with their babies for a number of different reasons. It is believed that co-sleeping encourages breast feeding and makes it more convenient by helping to synchronize the mother and baby’s sleep cycles. Supporters of co-sleeping also believe that it brings a mother and baby closer together, especially if there is separation during the day due to work or other commitments. With these benefits in mind, it’s understandable why some mothers choose to co-sleep with their infants. If you do choose to co-sleep with your baby, it is important that you do so safely.

I was never huge into baby wearing with SweetPea. Not because I didn't want to, I tried...., I just didn't have a good carrier. Which made grocery shopping before she could sit up on her own by myself almost impossible. My husband works in a grocery store, so the last thing he wants to do is go grocery shopping on his days off. He works long hours, so I try to soak up every minute I can with him. I do sometimes leave the kids with my mother-in-law when she isn't working, but I don't like to burden her too much. So, grocery shopping with just me and the kids is our norm.

If you've been following me on Instagram (and you should be), I have been sharing my love of my new Boba 4G Carrier in Dusk (which is their top selling carrier).

 

I received the following complimentary as part of the Purex Insider blogger program. All opinions are my own.

I love dryer sheets more than liquid fabric softener. The reason? They have so many uses! I tend to only use them on our sheets and towels when washing because they sit in the closet longer. I also like to use them to stick in our drawers and closets so everything can smell laundry fresh longer.
