One thing we’ve learned at Austin Moms Blog is that every stage of motherhood is unique… and that kids can really really stink! Figuratively and literally.

The moment a child enters your home, new smells begin to take over. While we all wish that freshly washed newborn smell could be bottled as an air freshener, it’s not the good smells that tend to stick around. Diapers exploding, throw up, muddy & sweaty clothes, used underwear…it takes over the home. And if you’re not there yet… just wait.

You can turn to candles, plug-ins, and sprays all day long, but we’ve discovered a new “trick of the trade” you’ll need to try yourself. There’s one new product on the market that is proving to be the most effective for moms of all stages – Fresh WaveAnd it’s sold at Target, so you know it must be good! 

To put it to the test, we’ve asked 4 Austin Moms Blog contributors to try Fresh Wave where it’s needed most and we’ve come up with 4 reasons why Fresh Wave works across all sages of motherhood.

1., 2., & 3. Pet, Closet, and Bathroom Odors

Katie Legg, Mama of 1 :: Our sweet family cat eats, breathes, sleeps, plays and uses the facilities in our family office. The smell is not so amazing in that room, at least it wasn’t until someone told me about Fresh Wave products. Now you would never know a cat and it’s litter box reside there. It smells like a constantly cleaned space. It is amazing what Fresh Wave does to not just hide or mask the smell, but completely get rid of it. I love these products!

My hall closet (home to our families shoes and coats) went from smelling like sweaty, dirty shoes to the amazing scent of a freshly cleaned house. I love it. It smells so good my husband actually asked if I washed all of families shoes. Thankfully I didn’t have to wash the shoes, Fresh Wave pearls did the job. I cant recommend them enough!

The spare bathroom in our house is used by a ton of tiny little kiddos. Some of these said kiddos are newly potty trained, and not the tidiest. The room always smelled like, well, let’s just say not good. After hearing about Fresh Wave products and making the decision to try them out, this room no longer smells constantly dirty. In fact it’s actually the opposite. It smells amazingly clean, all the time. I love it and love what these products have done for my house!

4. Eliminating Baby Odors

Alexis Edwards, Mama of 2 :: We have two littles still in diapers and live in a two story home. I refuse to trek up and down the stairs every time they have a dirty diaper so we put a changing table in our Master bedroom closet downstairs. Good news for my calves, bad news for my bedroom. Your Master is supposed to be a retreat at the end of the day when your littles are finally in bed right? I calm serene space to unwind and melt away your troubles from the day. Well it’s hard to relax when all you smell is the stank coming from your diaper pail. Cue Fresh Wave! I have an odor removing gel hiding on a shelf plus an odor removing pack inside the pail. It smells like sunshine and rainbows y’all! Even the knock you down smell that would hit you each time you open the pail has disappeared. No lie. But more importantly it doesn’t feel (or smell I should say) like I sleep alongside manure! Mama has her bedroom back and is able to chillax in bed with wine and Netflix. Thank you Fresh Wave!

Am I the only mama who struggles with transferring laundry from the washer to the dryer? Tiny humans keep me distracted all the live long day so it’s easy for my mom brain to forget about the load of towels I started oh ya know 3 days ago. Whoops. Unfortunately no amount of rewashing can save my towels from the mildew smell of that terrible mistake. I was this close to throwing them away and buying a new set when I remembered my Fresh Wave odor removing spray. A few spritzes on the load and one rewash later and they smelled like new! No more evidence of my laundry disaster for the hubs to discover, just clean fresh towels for the whole family to enjoy. Plus, since it’s made of all natural ingredients, I don’t feel guilty using their products on our linens. Win, win! Thank you Fresh Wave!

5. Removing “Kid Funk”

Courtney Weynand, Mama of 2 :: With two elementary-aged children I am NO STRANGER to ‘kid funk’. We wholeheartedly encourage our kids to get outside and play as often as possible but, when they make it back inside…pee-ewww! The pungent odor created by several games of tag, bike riding, etc. can truly be overwhelming.

I was recently introduced to the Fresh Wave line of products and, since putting them in our home, I have noticed a pleasant difference. Targeting the main areas of the house where the children typically play, I placed the Odor Removing Gel in the playroom. The kids can come in from their outdoor adventures, head straight to the playroom, and we aren’t subjected to the Pigpen-esque cloud that lingers. In addition, I’ve placed another gel in the kids’ bathroom and it’s working hard to fight all of those scents as well.

Fresh Wave items have found a welcome spot in our home and their effectiveness means they’ll be around for a long time!

6. & 7. Diaper Pail & Car Odors

Amelia Carry, Mama of 1 :: Oh FreshWave, how I needed you!  I have tried many different air freshener products over the years, from the expensive plug-ins to the wax warmers and even those weird cone-shaped gizmos.  All of them seemed to do a decent job of making our home smell nice… until I had a kid. Even though I empty his diaper pail daily, his room just can’t seem to shake a certain funk. And now that he has started potty training, his bathroom has become victim to endless ‘accidents’ and a garbage can full of diaper wipes and pull-ups.

I was desperate. After exhausting all other options I finally placed a FreshWave crystal gel container discretely behind my sons bathroom garbage, and threw one of the little gel packs underneath his diaper pail. The first thing I noticed was there wasn’t an overwhelming fake scent to the products- they had a mild citrusy scent but it wasn’t overpowering or perfumey at all.  By the next day, his room and his bathroom were noticeably fresher. And it isn’t like other air fresheners where you can tell the scent is just masking the other smells– it’s as if FreshWave absorbed the other smells and just left a slight hint of summery smell in the air. And the best part is that I don’t have to worry about my son getting into the air freshener and having any sort of allergic reaction because the products are totally all natural (which is a total bonus!).

I was so happy with the effects that I tossed a FreshWave gel pack in my master closet and a couple underneath the seat of my car. Those little pack carry a ton of power, because my car has never smelled better! I’ll never go back to my old way of air freshening, since neutralizing with FreshWave is a way better (and longer lasting) option for this mama.
