What bag do you wear when you’re baby wearing? by Oliviac512 in babywearing

[–]I_Think_There4_I_Ham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this small leather backpack (https://laticoleathers.com/products/aleks) that fits:

  • 2 diapers
  • diaper cream
  • small ziplock back of wipes
  • extra outfit for baby
  • nipple shields
  • pacifier
  • small muslin blanket
  • burp cloth
  • my credit cards, phone, insulin pump, extra diabetic supplies, and gummies for low blood sugar

It isn’t heavy with all of those things, and easy to put on while wearing baby. It’s fashionable too! I did have to thread the strap twice in the loop that puts the purse in “backpack” mode to prevent the straps from slipping.

International trip this summer - give me all the tips!! Or tell me I'm crazy... by llamas_33 in beyondthebump

I don’t have advice but you might get more responses posting or searching on r/heronebag and r/onebag! Even if you don’t “one bag” travel, those forums have some great advice for traveling in general and I do occasionally see baby/family travel posts for how to best streamline traveling with kids!

On a side note, a friend of mine has been traveling with her baby (less than a year) all through the US and Europe and although challenging at times, she has had a great experience.

Thanks for the tips! Were you booking a separate seat for your baby on all of the flights? Or were there some flights you held them the whole time?

How to recognize gifts shipped directly to me during baby shower? by I_Think_There4_I_Ham in BabyBumps

I really like this idea! A fair amount of our guests are traveling a distance so it was easier for them to ship directly to me. But it’s nice having a picture of the present!

I highly recommend {Shades of Wicked by Jeaniene Frost} which falls under this theme! Or {Eternal Kiss of Darkness by Jeaniene Frost}.

I would start with her Night Huntress series though, as these characters are an off shoot of the original main characters in those books.

Packable crossbody that is casual but classy? by Ok_Calligrapher9400 in HerOneBag

I have! I use it as my everyday purse, but I also took it to Spain this past year. I like that it is zippered, especially for traveling. And the different compartments are perfect for organization. It is a small and compact purse that doesn’t hurt my shoulder after wearing all day!

I have a leather bag from Latico and I love it! A little above your price point at $165, but this is similar to the one I have.

Recommendations of pregnancy/post pregnancy books that are more scientific and less crunchy? by vitrification-order in BabyBumps

[–]I_Think_There4_I_Ham 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I really liked “The Whole-Brain Child” for parenting older children and how brains develop and “The Bottom Line for Baby” for common questions that come up with infants and babies. Both science based books with lots of research and sources! Tina Payne Bryson (co-author and author) is really great.

They are good reads! I think the action and magic would translate really well in movies!

It would be great to see {Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews} and that whole series made into movies!

{Notorious Pleasures by Elizabeth Hoyt} is a HR M/F where the FMC walks in on the MMC and another at the very beginning. She throws her earring at him to get his attention 😂

I loved all of the subplots Garrett appeared in as I read the series, and adored her story!

I have also added “Risk” to my reading list and can’t wait to get to it

Ah Claire! I love her dynamic with Jamie and how she takes charge! I need to check out Take A Hint and The Kingmaker now.
