Days With Mama-The Beginning / February 11, 2020

A Basket a Day, gives more time for Play!

Example of family room basket.

Baskets, baskets, baskets!

The “nesting” phase of life doesn’t end when the baby comes home from the hospital. I have changed and rearranged everything in our house multiple times, trying to find that “perfect” set-up for us.

As it turns out there is no such thing as perfect! Here is a quick little piece of advice using baskets to help out with daily diaper changes!

I have three baskets I use daily. One in the family room consists of diapers, wipes, pajamas for bed and diaper cream. I have one basket in the living room with diapers and wipes and a last basket in the baby’s room.
The last basket is my favorite because it has a light on it for late night diaper changes, and compartments for both diapers, wipes and an extra set of jammies.

I restock the baskets at the beginning of each week and do mini refills throughout the week if need be. Here is a sample of what goes in the basket pictured!

  • 10 day diapers
  • 10 nighttime diapers
  • 5 pairs of jammies and onesies to go underneath
  • diaper cream
  • 3 packs wipes

I generally don’t need to restock much other than diapers or maybe jammies that often, but seriously a life saver!
