Baby Products You Don't Need!

This is just my personal opinion. 
These products may work for others 
and it might work for you.

Squeezable Spoon  * Wipe Warmer * Bottle Warmer * Genie Bags

Reasons: Squeezable spoon leaks. Wipe and bottle warmer are good in theory but are products you can live without. I found the wipes don't stay warm that long and it's an extra step I don't need. I breastfeed and I believe you don't use bottle warmers for breast milk because most have greater risks of overheating. I almost bought a diaper genie back when I was still using disposable diapers, but having to buy special disposable diaper bags is just expensive.



Baby Laundry Detergent * Baby Care Timers 

 Reasons: Baby laundry detergent is not practical and is expensive to spend money every month on two  separate laundry detergents, one for baby and one for everything else. Find a laundry detergent sensitive enough for baby's skin that you can use on everything. Baby timers are a great idea, in theory, but I often forgot to use them as I was busy taking care of my baby. If you have a baby or babies that require special care and constant tracking of diaper changes, feedings and sleeping, this may be worth your while. However, I've heard if you're going to use them, there are enough apps for less money out there to use. 
 Depending On The Person
Changing Tables
Reasons: I like them and I don't. They take up alot of room. They can be great for storing items. You can't store all your cloth diapers if you have a big stash. Not all changing tables convert into a piece of furniture you can use after.
Baby Bathtubs

Nursing Pillows

Clear Blue Plus Pregnancy Test (Blue Dye)

Clear Blue Plus Pregnancy Test  with Blue Dye (+ / - ) This is what a negative looks like: Side Note: Blue dyes are often said to more frequently give false positives than pink dye. Some online boards that will tweak (alter) a pregnancy test photo to help individuals identify if the test is a faint positive or indeed negative, often will not do blue dyes.

Frida Mom for Post Laparoscopy Care

  My Frida Mom Basket for Post-Laparoscopy Care. Why I Love the Frida Mom Line (Even Beyond Motherhood) One of the things I’ve really come to appreciate is how versatile the Frida Mom line is—not just for new moms, but for anyone recovering from abdominal surgeries, such as laparoscopies for endometriosis. After surgery, comfort and gentle care are everything. That’s where the C-section recovery underwear comes in. Even if you haven’t had a baby, the design makes sense—when you have incisions on your abdomen, you need something soft, high-waisted, and non-restrictive. These disposable underwears are a lifesaver compared to standard disposable Depends. The big difference? You can build your own pad system . Start with the underwear. Add a menstrual pad. Layer on a witch hazel perineal liner, perineal cream, or both. Attach an optional heating pad for cramping. It’s completely customizable depending on what your body needs that day. I also want to mention the liners pack...

My Laparoscopy Recovery Essentials: What’s Actually Helping Me Heal

Disclaimer: Links to all the products I mentioned are included. I am not being paid to promote any of them and do not receive payments. Skin sensitivity may impact your experiences with these products.

Over the past week, I’ve found a few products that have made a huge difference in how I feel—both physically and mentally. Here’s what’s been helping me get through it: 1. Body Wash That Feels Safe Before and after surgery, I wanted something gentle that still felt clean. I’ve been using Dove Antibacterial Body Wash , and it’s been perfect. It keeps the incision area clean without stinging or irritating my skin, which is such a relief.  2. Underwear That Actually Works I never thought I’d get excited about disposable underwear, but Frida Mom Disposable C-Section Underwear has been a game-changer. They’re soft, supportive, and don’t press on my stomach—exactly what ...
