My first baby was born May '24! We've been learning so much. And while I don't care too much about what I'm eating (dyes/sugars) I definitely care what his little body is eating. The rest listed is what's been working!

Wipes & their score on Yuka + MY OPINION on diapers PLEASE be mindful every baby is beautifully different so some wipes or diapers could cause a chemical reaction even if it scores well on Yuka. Yuka does not rate diapers!
93/100 EXCELLENT
Huggies Natural Care Scented Cucumber, Aloe & Vitamin E Baby Wipes - 15 pack (960ct total wipes)

Rascals have become my current fav lately. They hold overnight, they are cute, and they clasp great, they also have a scrunch back which I believe helps avoid blowouts going up the back and moves with the baby well.
Rascals Premium Absorbent Baby Diapers Size 3, 184 Count (Select for More Options)
These are on the pricer end of my budget but they have a cute design (what can I say - I do judge a book by it's cover) but yes, these also cover the important things = holds well, secures strong, and doesnt leak!
Hello Bello Premium Baby Diapers, Infant Size 3, 66 Count (Select for More Options)
If I had to align myself with one of the top brands of diapers I'd be a Huggies Mama. I judge based on the grip of the diaper band, the leak proof, and the longevity. To each their own though!
