Brandless diapers
A few months ago I wanted to try the brandless diapers and I looked for reviews on them, but I couldn’t find any, so I decided to make my review.
I tried these diapers a few months ago and I still wanted to write about them.
As you may know, the brandless website has household products that are priced as low as 3 dollars for any item you find listed. And what makes this brand unique is the partnership they have with Feeding America, where you always donate meals for each order you make.
My baby was 10 months old when she wore the brandless diapers, and we ordered size 4 diapers. I made a small comparison between the brandless diapers and pampers (which was my favorite brand back then). You can see that brandless diaper is slightly bigger than the pampers one, because of how small my baby was maybe I would have chosen a size 3 for a better fit. Qualitywise, and I mean how it feels and also how resistant it looks, pampers would still win, even though brandless diapers are very close in quality. 
Opposed to the regular pampers, the brandless diapers are scentless. Taking that into consideration, maybe it would’ve been better to compare it to the Pure Pampers, but my only goal was to compare their size, general quality, and softness.
I didn’t experience any diaper blowout with them, and I assure you that no diaper is blowout proof.
For the size 4 diapers that come with 30 diapers, I paid 9 dollars (back in January). Now you pay 11 dollars for the same pack of diapers, going from 30 cents to 36 cents per diaper. While Pampers are around 33 cents per diaper for a pack of 27 diapers.
Things I liked about the brandless diapers:
They are hypoallergenic and free from latex
They are BIGGER
They have cute and very neutral prints with only the colors grey and green.

Things I’ve been learning during parenthood: Gratitude and simplicity makes me a happier person. Maternal instinct is a real thing and I’ll always protect my children. Even though I try hard to be a good parent, I can’t really run away from feeling some sort of guilt, but that’s what makes me strive to be better. My babies don’t mind my singing skills, so I’ll sing as much as I want. Being consistent is the key to avoid feeling overwhelmed. #parentingisnoteasy #motherhood #simplicityparenting #appreciatelifemore #sweetmoments #learningthroughparenthood #parenthood #messybuthappy https://www.instagram.com/memotherhood/p/Bvr6v4FA6WP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rmgdcssgzt7l

I ordered these pacifier holders from @mamabearsbabybeads customized and I was surprised with an extra bracelet that was so kindly added because of a short delay on delivery. 😁 There was also a coupon code for the next order 🎉Those pacifier holders and bracelets are good for teething and my little one already loves to play with it! #supportingmomsbusiness #pacifierholders #babyteethingaccessories #motherhood https://www.instagram.com/memotherhood/p/BvCm89kAteJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=clyiccnrehkh

Things I didn't Know Before Having a Baby
Tumblr media
This is a short and sincere list of the things I didn’t know well enough until I had a baby, focused on the post-partum and newborn stage.
The list doesn’t necessarily follow an order and I tried to keep it simple but I had to add some details too.
Feel free to skip to the ones that are more important to you!
I saved the best for last when I talk about cloth diapers, and there are some coupon codes to save 40% and 50% on bamboo diapers from my favorite brand.
I would have a "period" that would last a month
Post-partum is something that not everybody thinks too much about while pregnant. That's okay, it's not our fault! We just spend a lot of our time overwhelmed by all the information we need concerning the baby, health, labor, and delivery. I just knew that I was going to have some sort of a "period" after delivering my baby after taking care of my sister during her post-partum, otherwise I would never have read any of this information or had a doctor instruct me. After having my first baby, I was expecting a regular period but then I noticed it was lasting longer than usual. My post-partum period lasted for about a month. It was pretty annoying since it was a heavy period and it would come and go very often. This kind of period is meant to clean all the residues of birth. Different than your regular period, it won't last 2-5 days, it may come and go for a month or so. The 5 days after delivery were the worst for me because of this period and all the pain of post-partum. Part of the pain comes from feeling contractions every time you nurse (or pump breast milk) once the uterus is coming back to its normal size and you will be recovering from all the work of bearing and delivering a child.
Breastfeeding is not that easy and natural as people told me
Different than what people told me before, breastfeeding didn't feel that easy and natural as I thought. Oh, yeah, I heard those stories too, that the baby already knew how to breastfeed and the mom didn't have to do much. But let's come down to the ordinary reality of things: breastfeeding is not easy! I heard it was very painful to nurse a baby, and I would wonder if that was related to the baby "biting" the nipple or because of suction. In my humble opinion, it can be both, but there's a lot more than those two things and I'll get to that point later. When my baby Miriam was born the nurses took her to clean her and do all the procedures they needed for a very short period of time, then the nurse brought her to me and we had our special bonding moment. The nurse had to take my baby back and do some other things that didn’t take very long either. Finally, she brought Miriam back so I could breastfeed her. My baby Miriam would latch on the nipple but not very well and the nurse was there with me to help out getting the right latch. It turned out that Miriam couldn't latch that great on my left breast but she did a good job on her second latch on my right breast. It didn't seem that hard with the nurse right there holding her and helping me out while breastfeeding for the first time for 20 minutes (which is just the perfect time for a newborn to breastfeed). Less than a few hours later I had to try it on my own, and the nurses told me to hold my baby like If I was carrying an American football ball. This position felt super weird but it was what they instructed me to do to help my baby get a good latch. It was a frustrating wrestle since I didn't know if my baby was really getting any milk, even though she seemed to latch correctly. The breastfeeding thing started to look stressful once I didn't have any experience with it. Now I understand that this whole confusion of trying to breastfeed Miriam was actually a problem of insecurity and all the lactation consultants instructing me in several different ways. Breastfeeding can be different for each mother since we don't carry the same genes or have the same predispositions. Our perception of pain may vary as well, but one thing is certain: breastfeeding feels different than anything you ever have experienced with your body. It is a new utility you haven't tried before! I wouldn't consider nursing a painful experience, but it is somehow uncomfortable once your nipples can get sore at first, the baby's suction demanding milk from the breast creates a pressure to release milk and when the breast gets full of milk it leaves you with a very strange sensation. Some people even feel angry when they have a letdown. Learning to breastfeed is frustrating. You and the baby are adapting to a new necessity, and moms can feel strange with the new task, and that may bring some insecurity. Feeling insecure is the worst thing because you know that your baby relies on you to provide all the essential nutrients that come from the breastmilk. For the first 2 months or so, I would constantly insist on breastfeeding Miriam above all else and feel like a failure very often. I was doing a good job but struggling with the uncertainty of not knowing if I was providing enough milk to her. I've learned the hard way that an oversupply of milk can also be a problem. By the third month, I was producing so much milk that she would struggle to nurse because of the milk's intensity coming out for the first minutes.
Pumping breastmilk could last an hour
First of all, I didn't even think about pumping before, once I thought it wouldn't be necessary. The sad truth is that pumping was one of the ways to stimulate my milk production and increase my milk supply. Once I embarked on the pumping thing for the first 2 weeks, I had to spend 25 minutes to even an hour pumping milk until I had enough to feed the baby. Part of the reason was that my milk supply wasn't that great yet.
My baby would breastfeed every 2 hours but it would feel like it was every hour
Newborn babies sleep, feed, pee and poop very often. So the first and second month were pretty much me changing diapers, breastfeeding, pumping and trying to live in between all these my tasks. Since I was pumping and nursing, it seemed I was doing one or the other all the time. Then, when I was exclusively breastfeeding, it felt like I was doing it all the time as well. I tried my best to follow a schedule based on her regular feeds and to keep her happy, fed and clean.
My baby would make me her pacifier
There was a time I spent a whole hour "breastfeeding" my baby and I had no idea why it was taking so long! Babies love to sleep after being fed, and the feeling of suction can be very calming for them. That's the reason why pacifiers were invented! After this experience, I would always make sure she's actually swallowing milk instead of just suctioning.
I would need more newborn size clothes than I expected
I trusted genetics and thought I would have a big and chunky first baby just like my siblings did, so I bought only 0-3 months clothes. Wrong choice! Miriam was born 6 pounds and 4 ounces and she lost 15% of her body weight after birth by the second day of life. All the 0-3 months clothes were very big on her and I had to go buy newborn clothes. It was a pain to run to the store after delivery to choose clothes! Her newborn clothes lasted until she was a month and a half old. I definitely recommend all moms to have at least 6 onesies and 2 outfits that are newborn size. Why? We run out of onesies pretty quickly because babies get dirty very often, especially during their newborn stage. Diaper blowouts happen a lot, it doesn't matter what kind of diaper you have.
My baby's poop would have petroleum color and be super sticky but not stinky
Somehow I thought my baby's poop would be very liquid and have a light color, but it did not. I was actually quite impressed that newborns have very dark poop that is so sticky, but it doesn't stink. Newborn's poop is meconium, which is the result of amniotic fluid, mucus and other things your baby ingested inside the womb, so it doesn't really smell.
The bad thing about it not having a smell is that we can't notice when the baby needs a diaper change. Just stick to the 8 -10 times diaper changes a day, and try to follow any signs that your baby is uncomfortable.
I wouldn't p-o-o-p for 3 days and it would be very painful to do it for the first time after delivery
Part of the reason we don't get to "go to the bathroom" for the first 3 days or so is due to the pain medicine we need to take during postpartum recovery. Doctors also prescribe soft gels to ease the process of going to the bathroom. Since the first time can be very painful, it's better to eat little as well as good and healthy foods to make your stool softer. By doing that, you will be fine!
All my hormones and sleep deprivation would make me think I'm crazy.
The fall of pregnancy hormones (estrogen and progesterone) takes you to what's similar to a very bad PMS, then sleep deprivation makes it worse because it steals your capability of doing things the way you're used to. Irritability is something quite serious at this stage. I guarantee that all moms suffer from irritability during postpartum. But I have good news too! Oxytocin comes to our rescue and makes us feel well and happy.  You might overcome the irritability at some point. It's recommended to rest as much as possible to help you be functional again. Try to rest whenever your baby is asleep. More good news… Moms are trained during pregnancy (with uncomfortable nights and insomnia) to resist those restless nights and sooner or later we can get used to the new schedule.
I've found this very easy-to-understand article about Postpartum Hormones and Healing.
I would feel sad and isolated
You might think that it's pretty weird to feel sad and isolated when you waited for this moment and made plans for so long. But it's quite normal. In my case, I would feel sad whenever I felt overwhelmed, frustrated or insecure. Of course, those feelings are natural when you see yourself facing a new role that you can only learn by experience. I isolated myself at first, and I also felt isolated once I couldn't do the same things and interact with people the same way I used to. What worked for me was to find other moms, spend time with them and share experiences.
My life would be out-of-control for months
The sad truth is that we're never fully prepared to manage the new life as a parent and it can be very messy. Our whole schedule changes and we live on the baby's schedule until we can finally handle the mess and manage life the way we want. The baby would always be my priority and I would constantly forget my own needs. I would stay in my jammies for the entire day and try to find out when I could eat or go to the bathroom without making my baby cry. I was pretty much a prisoner of my own baby until I learned to let her cry. Babies cry and it is okay! They won't die from crying for 20-30 minutes.
Parenting would change the way I see my parents.
I know it sounds cliché, but it's true. Being a mom made me appreciate all the sacrifice my parents did for me and love them even more. I would never know how hard it is to take care of a baby if I haven't experienced it myself. It is a struggle and being a parent means a lot of self-sacrifice, love, and care.
I wouldn't even try the cloth diapers
If you're into cloth diapers like I was before having my baby I suggest you try disposable diapers at least for the first or even second month of your baby's life. Why? Because just taking care of your baby, a little bit of yourself, and everything else is already A LOT. So, as a good friend, I advise you to try a very sustainable disposable diaper for the first few months until you get the hang of taking care of everything you need and then prepare to clean and wash cloth diapers.
But if you're like me that will feel so overwhelmed that you won't even bother trying, that's okay too. You have other options that don't include so much more hard work.
There are many organic (green friendly) diapers out there, for example, Little Toes, Seventh Generation, Parasol, Dyper, The Honest Company and so on.
Note: Little Toes is one of my favorites because it has the best quality I've seen on diapers and now they are having a 40% off sale, you can even get 50% off through their website. Since I want to facilitate for you, here are the codes: BAMBOO (for 40% off) and BAMBOOHALFOFF (for 50% off).

The Baby Box University
Tumblr media
The Baby Box from The Baby Box University is an incentive that is inspired by the Finnish Baby Box, where expectant mothers can receive a starter kit with 33 items for the baby, including outdoor clothes, indoor clothes, sleeping products, hygiene products, and a bed box. The baby box is made out of cardboard and has a mattress to make it a bed (baby lounger) to your baby. For 80 years, Finland's parents have been given the baby box by the state, and it has helped Finland to achieve one of the world's lowest infant mortality rates. The main purpose of using the cardboard box as a bed is to avoid Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Here in the US, we have The Baby Box University or Baby Box Co., created to support parents and provide parent education with rewards. The courses available on their website are free and rewarded. As you complete the first course on Safe Sleep, you can take a quiz and get rewarded with a Baby Box. The Baby Box University is also good because it is a comprehensive learning community for parents to learn about fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum and early childhood development.
How do I get a Baby Box?
You just need to go to their website, click on Get Started to fill out a quick form to join Baby Box University, listen and watch a total of 9 minutes of Safe Sleep classes, take a quiz and Voilà! You get rewarded with a baby box! Then, you fill out shipping address and wait around 3 to 4 weeks to receive your reward. You will have 3 options to choose from, the baby box, the Safe Sleep Bundle, or both.
Important details The Safe Sleep Bundle is sent totally free of charges, no shipping fee or anything. On the other hand, the Baby Box has a $19.99 shipping cost, while both items would be $24.99. What I choose to do was ask for both the Safe Sleep Bundle and the Baby box separate.
What is the Safe Sleep Course about?
It's pretty self-explanatory. The Safe Sleep course teaches parents how to put the baby to sleep safely in order to avoid SIDS as well as the safe options to put a baby to sleep. They discourage co-sleeping and advise you to provide a place where your baby will be free from any hazards (blankets, teddy bears, sleep bumpers, pacifier holders, anything that can cause suffocation) and instruct you to keep your baby sleeping on its back.
What's inside the Baby Box?
The baby box from Baby Box Co. is not as fancy as the Finnish Baby Box, but it also fulfills its purpose.
This baby box comes with sleeping clothes, mattress cover, samples from their partners, health information, and coupons.

Maternity Perks: Welcome Boxes I liked and recommend
Here is a list of Welcome boxes I liked and recommend to all moms.
Babylist
Noobie Box
Target
buybuyBABY
Amazon
Babylist
I started my registry with babylist because of its innovation in letting you add things like Home Cooked Meals, Pre-loved clothes, and Baby Sitting to your registry. It’s a nice reminder that parents need help as well when welcoming a baby! Any help is absolute essential when the newborn arrives.
Before asking for your Hello Baby Box you need to meet some requirements. And those requirements are very simple:
Complete your user information (including baby's due date and US shipping address);
Add 3 items from the babylist store to your registry; and
 Add 3 more items from any other store (like amazon, target, etzy and so on).
After meeting the requirements they will ask you to pay for a $4.95 shipping fee to send you your Hello Baby Box. It took me less than a week to get my welcome box from Babylist, even though they tell you that it can take up to 2 or 4 weeks to be shipped.
What's inside the Hello Baby Box?
Here is a pick of what is inside, but it may vary according to when you'll get the Hello Baby Box.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My favorite items:
MAM Bottle (4 ounces). It is a small anti-colic bottle that is also self-sterilizer! I found it very practical and cute.
Chicco natural fit pacifier. This pacifier is very similar to the Phillips Avent Soothie pacifier when it comes to the nipple shape and how soft it is. That is a plus, because my baby loved this pacifier and I was able to leave it in her crib without worrying if it could hurt her when she slept on it.
The babylist insert cards. These insert cards are just the right size and they make it easy for you to share your registry with your friends. You’ll receive a good amount of them and you can ask for more whenever you need (without paying for them).
Lansinoh breast pads. These breast pads are essential for when you're constantly breast feeding! I like this brand but any other one would serve you well. You can get washable ones or opt for the disposable breast pads, but never leave the house without them!
Pampers' bag. It comes with a diaper, sensitive wipes and coupons. I'm a huge fan of pampers because it is very good at avoiding diaper blow outs (holds everything in) and it keeps your baby dry for longer periods.
 Noobie Box
Tumblr media
I heard about the Noobie Box website later and I really liked their ideas as well. They created gift boxes that have essentials and good quality products for baby and parents. They have what is called A Year of Wonders (4 baby boxes) that are sent during the baby's first year of life with very thoughtful gifts. They also have the Noobie Parents Box, which is a box designed for parents with products and tips for new parents. You can also find coupon codes in their website (see here).
To receive your Noobie Pregnancy Box you just need to register (NO subscription required) in their website and pay a shipping fee of $6.95.
What’s inside?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
 Note: If you would like to get a 20% discount for a Noobie Box click here.
My favorite items:
MAM Bottle (4 ounces).
Lansinoh breast pads.
Aquaphor sample. This was a good size sample from aquaphor. I like to use it on my baby whenever she gets a diaper rash or after a blow out diaper.
Purell surface disinfectant. Especially while you're in the hospital with your baby it is essential to have one of these with you to spray on your hands and the visitors before touching the newborn.
Natural Nasal Saline Solution from Dkids. This is very helpful when your baby gets a cold and a stuffy nose, you'll be thankful for having a nasal solution and a nose bulb with you to relieve your babies symptoms. After my baby was born, it seemed that she had a cold for her first 3 months and the doctor told me it was normal because most babies retain fluids after birth.
Cuties (5 diapers). In most of my other baby welcome boxes I would get 1 or a maximum of 4 diapers, but this time they sent 5 of them and I'll try out this brand (they look very similar to pampers).
Target
Target is a very good store to buy their brand of baby clothes (Cat & Jack) and baby essentials (Cloud Island), but not of diapers. If you find Cat & Jack's clothes on sale, you can't lose the opportunity to get them because there are so cute and well made. A few weeks ago, for example,  target was selling sets of 5 onesies for $8 dollars. I especially like the Island Cloud Muslim blankets and towels because they're very durable.
To get your target welcome bag you just need to register with them and go to the store to pick up your bag. They are one of the best welcome bags you can find for free.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My favorite items:
MAM's newborn pacifier. This newborn pacifier is very small compared to other brands and I absolutely fell in love with it!
Dr. Brown's bottle. I haven't tried this bottle yet but while doing some research on it I found out that they are very good at preventing baby spit ups.
Target's coupons. Target gives you several coupons organized in a small booklet, and that helps a lot when trying to find that one coupon you want to use. Very smart and useful!
 buybuyBABY
The buybuyBABY store just requires you to build a registry with them in order to get the welcome bag. If you're looking for a good variety of toys, this is the place to find them. They have everything you need for your baby and more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
 My favorite items:
Pampers’ bag. With a diaper, sensitive wipes and coupons (again).
Lansinoh breast pads. It came with 2 samples, a little more than expected.
Gripe water sample from Mommy's Bliss. Gripe water in general is a good thing to have once you're baby is around, but using this gripe water was a good choice for me. Very often the baby gets fuzzy due to colic or any other discomfort, but having it will make your baby feel a lot better!
Newborn essentials (lotion and baby wash) from Noodle & Boo and Shea Moisture. I like to have those samples because they are easy to fit the diaper bag and designed for sensitive skin (hypoallergenic). Note: A quick search on amazon showed me the cost of $16-$18 for each of those essentials.
Seventh Generation box. This box came with wipes, 5 diapers (yay!) and a coupon of $2 dollars off for buying their diapers at buybuyBABY. I really liked this box as well.
 Amazon
If you have Amazon prime and started a registry at amazon you can get the welcome box after completing a checklist. You don't need to add everything from the list, just check the box and add the things you consider important for you and your baby. And the good news is that it's totally free because of Amazon prime. Even though they say it can take up to 2 weeks to arrive, it got at my house in about a week.
I personally didn't have the best experience with my amazon welcome box because I expected a lot more than it was actually included in the box. Watching some Youtube videos on the amazon welcome box I saw people getting 2 or more onesies, plus a Muslim blanket. I wasn't that fortunate, so I just got the Muslim blanked, which wasn't bad.
I still recommend it because you can still get the onesies and the good sized Muslim blanket.
My favorite items:
Muslim blanket from Amazing Baby. It is a very good sized baby swaddle 46x46 inches and of good quality.
 Avent bottle (4 ounces).
Pampers bag. Includes 1 diaper, sensitive wipes and coupons.

I am very supportive of that! Breastfeeding the whole night is not fun, especially when you’re sleep deprived. So I chose to put my baby on the bed. 😁 It made my life a lot easier! 👏 But I still had to be cautious. I would swaddle her and keep my arm positioned over her head so I wouldn’t roll over her in case I fell asleep while nursing. There are also co-sleepers (portable bassinets) out there that can help you make sure your baby is safe. 👌 #motherhood #cosleeping #breastfeedingandcosleeping #itsokay #momsupportingmoms #babyfirstyear #cosleepers #bassinets https://www.instagram.com/p/Btr32ZPFZIS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c32nya2fwib5
