Homemade Wipes Recipe


There are a ton of recipes out there for homemade butt wipes for baby but if you’re anything like me you want cheap and easy. So here is my quick recipes made with things you probably already have and if not you can get for dollars.

Ingredients
2 cups Distilled Water
2 TBS Coconut Oil
1 TBS Baby Oil
1 TBS Baby Wash/Shampoo
Empty Container
1 Roll of Viva Paper Towels (select a size)

The empty container can be an empty wipes container or can be anything with a sealable lid (you don’t want your wipes drying out).
Note: The coconut oil is there to keep your wipes from becoming moldy.

Directions
Pull apart paper towels, fold in half and stick as many that will fit in the container.
Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and pour over the paper towels.
Let stand 15 – 20 minutes before first time use.

If you have a container that has a lid, like Tupperware, you can turn the container upside down and the top wipe will always be moist and ready to go. Do not do this with an actual wipes container, it will leak!

A lot of recipes will tell you to cut the paper towel roll in half, take out the cardboard center and smash down the paper towels down in the solution of your container. I tried this method and it worked like it was supposed to, pulling the middle of the wipes up and out (think Lysol wipes), but I found my wipes were very fragile and would break apart easily. I prefer the tear and fold method.

Other Container Ideas:
Old Wipes Container
Lysol Container
Mason Jars (ANY jar)
Tupperware
Coffee Can

28 Weeks Pregnancy Update

Only 10 weeks to go!! Sometimes I cannot believe how far along I am. 28 weeks, and it seems like just yesterday we were telling everyone we were pregnant. Aside from sever morning sickness in the first trimester I haven’t had any more pregnancy complications. PTL On Tuesday January 16 th we had a growth ultrasound to check on the kiddos and make sure they’re still growing on track. It was pretty routine with all the pictures they were taking. They measure their heads, stomachs, lengths of arms and legs and checked their hearts again. Everything is looking good. Both my little girls weighed 2lbs 9oz, I was kind of shocked by this because Baby B has always been my bigger baby, but A is definitely keeping up now. Baby B still measures out a little longer than A but not by much. They are 46 th and 47 th percentile. This is great news for us as now our OB is watching to make sure one or both babies don’t fall behind on the growth charts. Pregnant moms always worry about their ba...
