Alex Drummond is settling into life as a new mom with humor, grace, and a growing love for the little things that make this phase easier. Her baby girl was born less than a month ago, but she's already sharing sweet (and relatable) glimpses into her new routine. In Alex's latest Instagram story, she gave followers a peek at her daily uniform: cozy pajamas, a baby wrap carrier, and of course, baby Sofia herself.
"It is 5 p.m., and I am still in my pajamas," Alex admitted. "It's at the point of the day where I'm like, I'm just committing to wearing these until bedtime."
That's the kind of realness we've come to expect from Alex over the years—and things are no different now that she's navigating motherhood. She was quick to share how helpful social media has been during this time, saying she appreciates when her followers tell her when she's "doing something wrong."
"I had her way too low in my last story," Alex explained, showing Sofia's positioning in the wrap carrier. "Her head was way down here before, and now it is 'kissing height.' So I can kiss her head, and she feels way more secure up here. So, thank you to everyone that sent that feedback."
The Wrap by Solly Baby, which Alex has been using to keep Sofia close while leaving her own hands free, has become a newborn-phase favorite. "I've only used it a few times, but I really like it right now for how tiny she is," Alex said. "It's great for just getting little odds and ends done around the house."
The adorable wrap is made from an ultra-soft and lightweight material, so it's comfy enough for both baby and mom to wear for long stretches. With a fully customizable fit, it's designed for infants from 8 to 25 pounds and comes in dozens of different colors and patterns. (Alex has the 'Flax' version, which is a neutral color that looks cute with anything—including pajamas. 😉)
"I'm new at this thing," she reminded everyone before signing off. But with Sofia peacefully snoozing and Alex's sense of humor shining through, it's obvious that she's going to love every moment.
