You know that little scrub brush they give you in your postpartum hospital bag, the one with extra soft bristles for messaging baby's head to treat cradle cap? My babies are 5 and 6, and I still use mine, except it's now our nail scrubber. It works great on little hands and gentle skin.
The lanolin ointment for breastfeeding is ideal for chapped lips.
My mop now sits in the plastic baby bath basin.
And those peri squeeze bottles that you use to gently cleanse your sore and battered nether regions after birth? Best. Water. Pistols. Ever.
Our buds at LilSugar shared more alternate uses for postpartum hospital bag items that even I never thought of. Click their fun slideshow to view all 7, then tell me ...
Are you or did you use any of your postpartum care items in ways other than intended? Share your creativity!

Hm, wonder what altrenative use I can come up with the breast pump that was in my kit....LOL
The squirt bottle I got, well I had 2 in my bag and I used the clean one that was never opened to rinse off my sons head when he was an infant and I had to give him sponge bathes because he had so much hair a washcloth wouldn't work. & even worked when he was able to get into his infant tub!
Hmm, I must have gone to crazy hospitals because I didn't get any of those 'fun' things. :( I did get the squirt bottle but that's it.
