Being a mom is like navigating a labyrinth of advice, opinions, and endless baby gear. But who says there's a one-size-fits-all approach? Let's dive into my personal experience and learn from my mom hacks!

Milk Bottles: I thought milk bottles were a must-have, but my little guy had other plans. Turns out, he preferred the real deal. My advice? Skip the bottles and embrace the breastfeeding journey. Well, just in case you are a stay-at-home mom like me who has some milk.

Baby Crib: "The baby crib was a total dud for us. Cosleeping was a game-changer for both of us. Sometimes, the simplest solution is the best.

Stroller vs. Carrier: Strollers are great for outings, but a carrier is a lifesaver for everyday adventures. Invest in a good carrier and save your back.

Walker: My baby wasn't too keen on the walker. He was more interested in exploring on his own. Let your baby's natural curiosity guide their development.

Clothes: "I learned the hard way that expensive clothes aren't always necessary. Opt for quality, affordable pieces and don't be afraid to shop secondhand.

Toys: "My little one was more fascinated by everyday objects than any fancy toy. Encourage open-ended play and creativity.

Before I gave birth, I had a number of things in my mind. Of course! I really want to give the best for my child, but then I realized that it is also important to be practical -- given the fact that the economy is in bad shape and I also have to think about his vaccinations and other needs!

And also to save some mooohney, I also thought of skipping some unpractical and unrecommended tips from other moms. I usually consult with my son's pedia.
