It also has nature noises (we use this setting the most) and I think it rotates through three different ones, a music setting (which we've never used because I don't love the melodies) and then this setting that illuminates soft-lit stars on the ceiling (we use this one sometimes when we are in bed. Now that Huxley's sight is good and he's starting to pay attention to objects, he enjoys looking at the mobile when he goes down while he's still awake. It's a great bassinet if you want something with soothing/distracting features, but you don't want to spend a fortune. It's another hands-fee option that keeps him occupied so he's not just hanging out on his Boppy all the time.

Argan oil includes fatty acids, but it also a great source of vitamin E, which is what gives you healthy skin, hair and eyes! If you are looking for products to improve skin and hair that have argan oil, I've listed my favourite products that I swear by below! Her original argan oil was too much for skin and would cause me to break out, while this was is exactly what my skin needed. Between the Canadian winter and pregnancy, my skin was DRY and most of products that I had been relying on previously to keep my skin looking great contained ingredients that weren't safe for pregnancy.

All of this was advised by the lactation consultant - and I'm sure in the most determined situations this works - we filled a 60ml bottle with formula and taped a tube to my breast which was inserted in the bottle so that when Huxley fed he would get colostrum/milk + the formula. Pumping would allow me to feed Huxley breastmilk for as long as I could and Bryon could also help with the feedings which wouldn't leave me as the only one Huxley could rely on to eat AND Bryon could have some time to bond and connect with him as well. I had enough of people who wondered when I was going to start to try breastfeeding again, reminding me that if I bottle feed Huxley, he might not be able to take the breast later, that I wasn't going to bond with my son, or giving me their advice on breastfeeding thinking that I should give it a try before I give up on it. you can't breast feed and you don't need it, in case your supply is amazing and you just need a handheld pump, there are pumps for different kinds of pumping.

Huxley was still really high and hadn't dropped yet, so my OB felt that if I were to be induced (because they didn't want him to get any bigger inside me than he already was) by the time he reached the birth canal, I wouldn't be progressing well and would end up needing a c-section anyway. It's not that I didn't want people there the following day, but I was not feeling my best the next day and the influx of visitors was probably not as enjoyable as I would have liked. I can't believe my body looks like this already - I expected to hate my body and have a really tough time with what I looked like after, but I'm pretty proud. I don't know if it was something I did during pregnancy, before pregnancy or if it's chalked up to genetics - but this is how my body recovered after pregnancy.
