items It’s so hard to sift through all the grabby ads targeting new moms—everything is labeled a ‘necessity.’ Let me share the few things I truly recommend that worked for me.
Bought with my firstborn, rebought with my second. The best sleep swaddle to get your baby to sleep at night transitioning them from your arms to their bassinet. These help your baby stay asleep, easing their startle reflex.
Baby Sleepsack Swaddles | HALO
*worth the splurge*
Bought with my firstborn, continued to reuse 5 years later with my second. Have recommended to new moms with shared positive feedback. You can opt for the leveled up version with soothing noises, vibration setting, and even rock ...
Baby Bassinets & Bedside Sleepers - Halo Sleep

Hatch Rest Baby Sound Machine & Night Light

Shop Baby Swings & Baby Jumpers

Huggies® Baby Diapers
Trust me on this one.. pampers sensitive wipes. They’re soft and gentle and wipe the areas clean with minimal wiping. Enough said!
Pampers Sensitive Baby Wipes, Hypoallergenic
I’ve tried every baby carrier, wrap, and sling out there. The trick is starting early and getting your baby used to it. This one is by far the easiest—buckles on and off without any knots or feeling like you’re stuck in a straightjacket.
