Before my son was born I asked some friends for advice.. there were a few gems but it was mostly waffle
7 things I have learned having a 2-week old baby
1. Crying
2. Sleep
3. Changing Nappies
4. BURPING
5. Feeding
6. Leaving the hospital/car seat
7. umbilical cord

Feeding
When feeding a newborn .. be mindful of how much they can consume.. the size of their stomach is SMALL.. and because of that they need to feed regular. like every 2/3 hours.. here's a pic of the size of the stomachs for the 1st 12 days
Crying
Your baby WILL a lot but if you got through this checklist you would be able to address it and they should be calm after
Here are the main reason why they may be crying
- Hunger
- Trapped wind/ Gas
- Sleepy
- Dirty/ need changing
- Uncomfortable
- need love/attention
Oh and another thing to think about is PATIENCE.. it's cool to take a time out of it's too much.. go unwind and do something you like booty pics on insta and come back
There's been times where I have had to change nappies 3 times within 5 mins he's clothes 4 times in 10 mins
Nappies
on average babies need changing around 10/12 times a day
Preparation is Key so get these items on deck
-Diapers
-Changing Mat
-Wipes/Cotton Pads
Nappies are pretty cheap these days .. worth looking at Aldi/Tesco/Asda they are all pretty good.. no need to do name brand
Sleep
What people are saying is true you will not sleep but if you got some type of system it will be a lot bearable
What we do is at night I take over and do the feeding/change etc while my Mrs sleeps..and I try to get as much rest during the day which leads me to my next topic
Week 1: deeping that we’re in lockdown.
Week 2: Houseparty
Week 3: Instagram Live the new link up
Week 4: Sprinkle Cake
Week 5: Influencers being exposed.
Week 6: WizKid Vs Vybz Kartel
Choosing a lawyer based on cheeks is soo wild to me.. man will get life for a parking ticket
I remember picking a barber based on her cheeks, my hairline hasn't recovered since and this was 15+ years ago lool
a lot more females should stop going commercial gyms.. especially if they are worried about being perved on.. trust me the mandem won't care about you when you go to a bodybuilding gym .. they are too busy tryna get PBs lool
You can learn soo much on twitter.. like -coding,
- Health/fitness
- mortgages,
- business,
- trading etc ..
it's can be great if you are conscious of who you follow
It's not just "how much should you pay on a 1st date"
umbilical cord
When the cord is cut they normally have an umbilical cord card.. and it will look a bit mad. its best to leave it alone to avoid infection.. it normally falls of within a couple weeks.. if it starts to look discoloured and smell it is infected. GO DOCTORS
Seems like a lot of people have this issue.. this stretch is to stretch my hip flexors which help with squats.. and in my case knee pain
The number one cause of tight hip flexors are sitting down a lot which i am pretty sure alot of us do
Driving, sitting in an office
This discussion isn't real life ..
A man minded his business didn't even approach the woman but somehow consent has been brought in to it
Muting this now
Have a great day people 🙂
This is a big W for me as I thought I couldn't squat this weight ever again due to my knee injury .. won't be doing this again any time soon though looool
