Is there any advise you wished you followed but didn't after your baby was born?

All of the above! Sleeping when baby sleeps and waiting after a bm for sure! I always jumped the gun and ended up having a few dirty diapers with just one bm. lol I also ran around the house trying to do laundry and clean and didn't accept help every time it was offered! Well, I do now! :)

Also, I was told to pre-cook some food and to snack when the baby snacks. When I was trying to breastfeed I found I didn't have time to eat! So, my supply dropped dramatically because I would literally forget to eat for days! NOT good. I quickly learned to eat when the baby eats.

I did EXACTLY what you did! Took advantage of that time to get things done when my twins slept. Its hard to sleep when things need to get done around the house. But also I wish I had just gotten a bassinette for each boy and had them sleep in their the first couple of weeks because getting up every hour or so to check on them and feed was ridiculous if I could have just had them next to me!

Also I would have not bought so much of one bottle b/c they didn't take to it and had to buy several different types until I found one they would take (which ultimately was the cheap $2.00 bottles!)

I also agree with the person that mentioned not obsessing over what other people's babies are doing compared to mine.

Wait a few minutes after a BM to change the diaper just to be sure. Well sure enough at 5am I was in a hurry to get back to sleep and didn't adhere to that wisdom and instead of going back to bed after the diaper change, I was in the shower washing that bm off my face!

Thanks Emmy!

Same as yours--sleep when the baby sleeps. Also, I wish I hadn't been so obsessed about what other people's babies were doing, especially in regards to sleeping at night.

I wish with my first child I would have followed my gut more instead of listening to so much advice.

Yeah wear some sort of tummy wrap to help tighten your belly again. I wish I would have :(

i wish i had listen to my mom when she said its best to put baby to sleep in their own crib.. my daughter is 14 months now and both my daughter and i cant sleep without each other lol its comfortable knowing shes safe near me. hopefully soon i can get over it and try to teach her to sleep in her toddler bed.

pregnancy weight is hard to lose,i wish i believed that but i breast feed and everybody says that breast feeding makes you lose weight ,which i discovered later to be over rated,so i wish i have exercised sooner.
