My Efficient Bedtime Routine
There’s no doubt I love my sleep and no parent would want to spend hours getting their child to bed. A good bedtime routine can be done in a few steps and performed almost anywhere. A bedtime routine should be fun, relaxing but they should also be quick, fuss-free and done anytime, anywhere. These are the basic 4 parts to it that have worked for Noah.
How to Sleep Train Without Tears
Sleep training does not mean that you are mean and selfish. It just means that you want your baby to get the best sleep he can and to establish healthy sleep habits.

My Breastfeeding Journey
Breastfeeding doesn’t always go as smoothly as we imagine it to. Every mom’s journey is unique and fraught with its own challenges. For some, it is relatively easy but for others, it may be a constant uphill battle. Don’t beat yourself up for it– whether formula fed, latched or expressed, as long as the baby is growing and healthy, that is all that matters. Just do the best you can, and as always, cherish every bit of this journey.
Here’s a little peak into mine, two months in..
The Diaper Bag Essentials For Every Mom
One crucial aspect about being prepared for a day out with baby, apart from mentally preparing oneself, is having a well-packed diaper bag. Leaving the house for a day out with baby without a properly stocked diaper bag is like going to war without bullets in your weapon. Not to be melodramatic or anything but this is one of the parenting mantras that we repeat to ourselves every time we plan to take Noah out on a little excursion. (Scroll to the bottom of this blogpost for our checklist of what we pack in your diaper bag. Feel free to use it or adapt from it!)
