All the best baby and toddler items to make life and baby happy
Rebecca Taber: Lots of friends recommended this or the Uppababy Cruz, but said if you're planning multiple kids the Vista is best. Update: We’ve loved the Vista and the bassinet it comes with. The bassinet was great for walks and daytime naps (he out...
Vista V2 Stroller
Multiple friends recommended for travel + around the house - we got with the bassinet adapter. We don't love that the legs stick out (easy to trip on) but otherwise great, and he sleeps super well in it when we travel.
Pack n' Play
Rebecca Taber: Friend shared: "Amazing way to trap your baby when they’re old enough to chill in here". 100% agree. We call this his "baby office" and it's been a great baby trap / entertainment device since he was around 6 months (he's 13 months now...
Baby Activity Center
Rebecca Taber: Multiple friends recommended
Sophie The Giraffe
Rebecca Taber: He has LOVED this since 9 months or so - one of his fave toys.
VTech Sit-to-Stand Learning Walker
Rebecca Taber: We tried the Ubbi but wanted something with a foot pedal, so changed to the genie.
Diaper Genie
Rebecca Taber: Healthier than painting or wallpapering nursery - super easy to put on and look great!!
Fabric Wall Decal
Rebecca Taber: Friend shared: "We chose Eufy, a top recommendation from Wirecutter. We also heard good things about the Nanit, but didn't like wifi in room and heard that can pose security risks." Update - we've been happy with the Eufy so far. Secon...
Video Baby Monitor with Camera and Audio
Rebecca Taber: Friend shared: "Swaddle Me - everything else is worthless." We agree this was one of the easiest / best DIY full swaddles, but actually quickly started to prefer the love to dream semi-swaddle after week one or two (next on this list)....
Original Organic Swaddle
Rebecca Taber: These were the swaddles he wore most after the swaddleme in the first few days and then the swaddleup for the first few weeks. Every baby / parent is different though! We liked both the organic cotton and muslin (lightweweight).
Halo 100% Cotton SleepSack Swaddle
Rebecca Taber: Friend shared: "Adan and Anais swaddle blankets (you can't have enough!)" And another said: "They are soft, organic and you need them everywhere. It's nice to leave in the car or other places you might forget to bring one along." Updat...
Swaddle Blanket | Muslin Blankets for Babies
Rebecca Taber: These bottles are so poorly made and leaky, and not as healthy as glass, but they worked best for us when J would have really bad gas.
Playtex Baby VentAire Baby Bottles
Rebecca Taber: Cute easy pull over bibs for spit up and eating.
4-Pack Lap-Shoulder Drool Cloths
Rebecca Taber: This one has worked really well for us; we put a towel in on top of the infant insert for now to keep him from slipping. Heard good things about the Boon too.
Comfort Height Bath Tub
Rebecca Taber: Manual nasal aspirator
Baby Nasal Aspirator NoseFrida Snotsucker
Rebecca Taber: Best sunblock we found.
Sunscreen Lotion 50 SPF
Rebecca Taber: Recommended by many friends; we have in white.
Lawn Drying Rack
Rebecca Taber: Solid bottle brush.
Bottle Brush with Nipple Cleaner and Stand
Rebecca Taber: This gown had snaps everywhere for easy access during delivery, including for epidural.
3 In 1 Labor, Delivery And Nursing Gown
Rebecca Taber: This is a great pumping bra - I have two and wear them both almost daily for pumping sessions.
Sublime Hands-Free Pumping & Nursing Bra
Rebecca Taber: We originally bought the LoveVery playmat but J greatly prefer this one. He is entranced by it still!
Fisher-Price® Rainforest Music and Lights Deluxe Gym
Rebecca Taber: Ice blue or blue!
Mini Deluxe Scooter
Rebecca Taber: They had ice pads in our hospital too, but I liked these much better than what they had. Super helpful for first few days of recovery.
Instant Ice Maxi Pads
Rebecca Taber: The hospital will likely have for you, but I brought one of these (you'll likely need one for home anyway) and liked it much better
