Reddit mentions of Shop-Vac 201-1400 Wet/Dry Hang-Up Mini Vac

i dont clean that often..but i have a little shop vac for cleaning the car

This one ...works great

• Learn childrens first aid including choking. Once they eat solids you might need to use it. I did.
  
• Buy a small portable shop vac. The first time that sucker gets sick your gonna wonder where they keep all that milk inside them. I didn't buy one for this purpose but when it happened I was there by myself. I had one in the garage. It was the only way I knew how to respond. Pour cleaning solution all over the site and vaccume away. Repeat. It's like a professional cleaning company came in. Works better than the hose attachment on regular vacuum for glitter later on. Your having a daughter. "There will be glitter."
  
• Completely baby proof living room once they start to crawl and make it a play area. I cut down a piece of sanded plywood to 2.5 feet the long way and made a tiny wall between the living room and the rest of the house. Big 6 foot archway between the rooms. Widest gate I could find was only expandable to like 5 feet. Me and the wife could step over but baby couldn't crawl out. Relax, I painted it white and decorated it. Also painted flowers on it and it even had a cute little bee too. I could lay on the fllor, take a nap and my daughter could crawl all over me and around me while hitting me in the head with plastic toys every once in awhile. Also, I could watch TV and not be worried the little female Stewie would crawl upstairs and pick the lock on my gun safe and shoot me when I came looking for her.
  
• Keep the floors clean. Once they start crawling anything they find on the floor goes in their mouth. If you drop something like a tylenol, you HAVE to find it.
  
• Buy a big comfortable back pack. You will pack baby supplies in it when you go somewhere. Like your deploying with the Marines. You are the Mule/support team. Put single serving amounts of babies powdered milk in baggies and mix with bottled water on the fly. Mark one bottled water you bring in the bag with permanant sharpe to indicate amount of water to leave before mixing. Rinse it out and use same bottle next time. Sunscreen. Never take it out of the bag and you will not forget to bring it.
  
• Buy this for babies room and put a night stand on one side and the dresser or another night stand on the other. Easier to manage the kid and reach something you need when you can swivel.
  
• Buy a baby jogger. Even if you don't jog. If you spend the day at the zoo or something it handles like an offroad stroller. The big tires make it easy to go up and over steps or curbs, pushes easier and you have that tire in front acting as a battering ram. Just have to keep air in the tires and keep an air pump handy. My wife took ours hiking on steep trails where she and her friend carried it like a litter to get up and down some places. Yes my daughter was in it. Laughing.
  
• Kids are tough, love the mother.
