nesting checklist
all the things to prep for baby🩵 trying not to go overboard but I want it ALL! Simple, clean, and high quality.
doing the most in the diaper game! I have seen nothing BUT great reviews on these. I know they are pricier, but don’t have junk attached
The Diaper
I have seen so so many great reviews about this specific bouncer and think for sure it is worth the splurge!
Baby Bjorn - Bouncer Balance Soft
I was torn between this and the owlet and have decided this is the one! Someone I trust very much recommended this!
Nanit - aSmart Baby Monitor System
Obsessed with this stroller and bassinet change out!
Single Stroller 3.0
Little man arrives during germ season! I love this brand already and think this is an extra precaution to take without losing our minds.
ATTITUDE Baby & Kids Toy Cleaner Spray 27oz
I love a good bassinet and it fits our Mockingbird Stroller!
Mockingbird Bassinet - Stone Blue
self care
must haves that are making things a bit easier with a whole lot of big changes happening, taking care of myself while pregnant is a non-negotiable esp. with multiple chronic illnesses
I keep reading how important it is to start a bump routine early, this is 1 I use daily and so far really love! Its def a dry oil!
MOMMY LIFE Preggie Paste Belly Butter 3.7oz
I started doing my nails at home (not pedi!) just to keep up how I feel- I thought this was going to be overrated but it is NOT and its one of my fave purchases I’ve made for myself!
Olive & June Builder Gel Starter Kit
I love needed! I have taken all supplements from them throughout my entire IVF journey.. egg support, prenatal, everything! They are easy to get down too!
Prenatal Multivitamin Pro
My day time routine! It is another dry oil base and just feels luxe (no scent too yay!) i am excited to try their other products.
ATTITUDE Pregnancy Stretch Mark Prevention Oil
Started these after our first failed transfer, they were recommended by doc esp. because I had antibiotics prior! I love them and do think they make a difference!
AZO Dual Protection Urinary & Vaginal Support
So good for the pelvic floor and aches and pains! I caved and got this during prime day. It has some traction on it to ensure you don’t roll off (my biggest fear)
Stability Yoga Ball
I looove my needed, but needed a boost for omegas! Love ritual! Comes with a fresh lemon insert to help with smell regulation!
Omega-3 Supplement with DHA & EPA | Ritual
Getting protein is probably one of THE hardest things for me. This makes it that much easier! I am also allergic to whey and this is plant based!
Vanilla Protein Powder
IYKYK… lifesaving.
Colace Clear Stool Softener Soft Gel Capsules
I got 2 styes in a month and was DESPERATE for a warm compress that lasted, didn’t have to worry about cleaning, etc.. and these are so great and were a great way to help relieve pain and also take a quick nap because of how relaxing they are!
Self Heating Warm Compress for Dry Eyes, 30 Count
Life savers for my poor feet and ankles! I have been having bad edema and pitting, if I can wear these half a day it helps SO much!
Cotton Compression Socks - Knee High

‘fits
my most lived in outfits, trying to be very mindful of fabrics and obviously comfort
Sucker for a lounge set especially loose fitting! I am overly aware of what is touching my body these days! Being poked and prodded I just want to be cozy
2 Piece Lounge Set
These grew with my bump and are my first grab for a casual day out! They are light and comfortable, have pockets, and look great dressed up or down!
Women's Gingham Wide Leg Casual Pants
BEST purchase for my baby moon! Fits in all the right places and was so comfy for the bump.
Zando Maternity Swimsuit 2 Piece High Waist Bikini Bathing Suits for Women | Button Down Maternity Bikini Set with Adjustable Straps, Pregnancy Bathing Suit Perfect for Beach Pool Babymoon Vacations
It has taken me all pregnancy to find comfortable underwear and these are PERFECT! I wish they came in a bigger pack, but they are soft and don’t make you feel more constricted than you already do.
Maternity 3pk Cotton Blend Under the Belly Boy Shorts
hospital necessities
