Thank you, Playtex for sponsoring this post. #ForBetterBeginnings
You know what I remember about my junior year of high school? Babies! Yes, babies as In my two newborn nieces. That was 23 years ago. Don’t bother doing the math, I am old. So many of those memories serve me well today. Like the up and down at night with babies, the diaper changes, and the feedings. Oh, the drama of the feedings. Today those memories came flooding back as I can now share that Fab Haute Mama is a brand ambassador for PlaytexBaby™. Just call me #PlaytexMom.
The very first bottles I have any memory of are PlaytexBaby™ bottles. When Baby E refused to take a bottle, I almost lost my mind. Seriously, mamas, it was stressful. But my sister took me back to the days when we had to prep her daughter’s bottles. She was also a breastfed baby that was not thrilled about any bottle except the PlaytexBaby™ Nurser with Drop-Ins™ Liners. I can’t remember if that was the name back then but I sure do remember prepping those little liners and how cute my niece looked while the liner made the cutest little sounds as she drank. Those bottles were also so easy to clean which is major for any tired mom (or babysitting aunt).
There is something to be said when a bottle that my sister used works wonders for my baby 23 years later. With 50 plus years in the business and our own family experiences, I know that PlaytexBaby™ definitely knows their stuff!

I am happy to share our #ForBetterBeginnings stories of all things baby and toddler through our ambassadorship with PlaytexBaby™. I have lots of stories to tell because as moms you know babies make for the best stories. From laughs to tears to barely holding on, we are all in this mom thing together.
We all want better beginnings for our babies. Baby E is now a toddler but guess what? He is still pretty picky about what cups he uses. STILL! You just can’t make this stuff up. And I have plenty of diaper drama stories too. More on that to come on our adventure with PlaytexBaby™ and the #PlaytexMoms squad over the next 10 months.
