Baby Spitup Hack #1: Hoodie Helper for Mama

SPITUP HACK: Dedicated zip-up hoodie to protect mama or other caregiver from projectile spitup.

WHY: When spitup comes from all directions and without warning, burp cloths and towels over the shoulder don't cut it. I needed full protection especially if I was already dressed to go to work or out of the house.

PROS: Zipper style offers quick access and removal. More comfortable than the poncho you've considered. 

CONS: No style points here - this is for function. It will get stains and you will get sick of wearing it. Also, you may need 2-3 backups for bad days. 

BONUS TIPS: A hood is not required but can double as a shoulder burp cloth; or a place to mentally hide when things get really ugly. Also, cream-colored or white/light fabric colors work well for obvious reasons. Choose a maternity sweatshirt or sizes larger than your normal size for a longer cut that shields your lap. Deep pockets give you places to store extra burp cloths.

    Yea, I went there. Nearly half of all babies spit up, regularly. Some more, some less, and for many it's just plain scary.

    I'm an overly concerned mom with an overworked washing machine. Learn more about me.
