Neither Nuna nor Colugo use any waterproof coatings or flame retardants so I decided to go with their full and travel size strollers instead.

Interesting about the Keekaroo, I am sort of rethinking it and debating getting a softer organic one with covers because it seems like that’s the consensus from a lot of moms. So glad to hear you like the Kinder by nature wipes. And thank you, everyone has been pretty supportive that we are waiting to find out, but they’re not loving that we won’t share names, haha! Thanks Jessica. xx

I truly wish I had known about so many of these things before I had my first, now turning 3. I learned a lot and incorporated many of these things with my second, now 11 months. I LOVED my Design Dua Bilia Basket. It moved from room to room so easily AND I would take out with us to other peoples houses as well. I actually used the SnuggleMe in it and it fit very nicely.

I agree with another comment about the Keekaroo. It is hard and cold. Since we already had it I didn’t want to get another changing pad with my second but if I could go back I would have liked to have gone with something like the Design Dua Changing Basket which is more comfortably for the baby to lay on. I did end up getting the Green Sprouts Organic Muslin Burp Cloths to lay down on it as they fit very nicely inside and help with the moisture wicking, my second also likes to pee once the diaper is removed.

The Kinder by nature wipes are amazing and the only ones we use! And I commend your decision to not find out the gender of the baby, we didn’t find out for either and it was the most wonderful experience.

Yeah that’s what it seems like after I researched. I found another version of the Sophie that I linked to and it looks like it might not have the hole? Hard to tell though.

The wipes are cotton, biodegradable, and nontoxic. Much better quality, and more moisture, than Seventh Generation.

Just don’t submerge Sophie in water when you clean her and she will be fine. Even living in a super humid climate, we never had any issues with ours. Sophie is the best! Just don’t stick her in the bath tub ?.

I did consider cloth diapering, and spent a lot of time researching. I have a variety of reasons why I ultimately decided not to, but mainly I worry about our old septic system and the amount of laundering (we don’t have a service we can use near us) and honestly it’s not something I think I can handle, at least in the beginning. Maybe that will change 🙂
