I tried to reply to an above comment, but looks like it posted in general responses. Just to share that we have loved the Boba Wrap and the Boba Carrier, and just find them both to be incredibly comfortable and easy to use. Cheers!
You mean the Boba Wrap? Too bad! My partner LOVED wearing our daughter in it. Then, we found the Boba Carrier to be awesome for us both. I hear good things about LILLE too.
This is probably more for moms with older toddlers now, hopefully not much use for our bitty babes, but can anyone recommend a thermometer? Forehead version? I know I need one for a rectal temp too, but those are cheap and simple. Our old one is now 8 years old and I figure technology has improved.

@Partyof6? FTM here and we were told at the hospital and by our pediatrician that we didn't have to do a rectal temp unless requested. We have a First Safety baby thermometer that we use for under the arm but I think it can do rectal if needed, we just have to follow the chart for interpreting a fever. At the hospital the nurse said we could used a forehead one, but they were kind of expensive when a regular under the arm works just fine.
I got the Exergen Temporal based on suggestions from friends. FTM, but I tested it on myself and used a normal thermometer and they were identical temps. I guess that means it works?!
