Having a baby, we need to cut through the consumerist clutter and get what's actually essential. (The play section is all extra's but essential in my house)

Cleaning my baby
Bath time with baby - everything I need
Small space critical item! Pack it out, thermometer is built in! Bath baby, dry out, pack away until two days from now.
Collapsible baby Bathtub
With my toddler this is all that kept him clean, moisturised and without rashes. I use it on my newborn whenever he takes a bath
Baby Dove Body Wash
Literally one pump covers my whole baby after bathing
Baby Dove Body Lotion
I love the baby scrunching that I get to do as I put him in his towel after bath time! So cozy!
Hooded Baby Towel and Face Cloths
I actually wrap my baby in these so that the warm water stays against his body for longer - he doesn't get a fright because he's loosely swaddled and I clean section by section so he doesn't get cold
Muslin Swaddle Blankets for Newborn
Playing with baby
Just a few toys and a lot of lovely conversation
“Skoppie”, because my baby kicks it to interact!
Baby Play Gym Mat
These are some of my tummy time favourites! Baby really engages with the high contrast!
Black and White High Contrast Baby Toys
This one crincles and there's even a little book. It's high contrast and colourful! Perfect visual stimulation in our grey world!
Tummy Time Baby Mirror
This one is actually on my wishlist - when baby's teeth start coming in, I bet he-ll like chewing these.
Baby Sensory Teething Toys Set
I got these for my newborn and he just loves moving his limbs to make sounds! As he kicks it's so nice and loud!
Baby Wrist Rattle Socks and Foot Finder
Baby Hygiene
Baby burps, baby poops, baby grows - here are some things to help
Baby burps. I wipe. I wash one per day. Works great
Baby Burp Cloths 100% Cotton
But will I use it? Yes, every little item here is essential at some point. Get it, have it. Be glad when you need something from it!
Baby Grooming Kit
For the A-type mom that has everything sorted - I am that mom, when I'm not postpartum!!
Portable Diaper Changing Pad
If baby is born in winter, this is essential!
Baby Wipe Warmer
Not a nice to have, but needed if we have to get them better..
