With my first baby, I picked the WRONG bassinet, so I made sure to do extra research and splurge a little more for a bassinet with multiple sleep aid features.
Graco SmartSense Soothing Baby Bassinet
This was a priority item for baby #2. I learned quickly from baby #1 that the dishes NEVER end for bottles. So if you can splurge, do it on this item!
Momcozy KleanPal Pro Baby Bottle Washer & Sterilizer
I love that it has bluetooth speakers so you can choose what your baby likes, the multiple modes is amazing, and perfect if you need to get things done around the house.
Monamii Baby Swing Bluetooth Speaker Beige
This travel system is a game changer, not to mention the biggest PRO, the car seat is BASELESS!!
Baby Strollers & Gear | Travel Systems & Double
Slightly more budget friendly than the Monammi and great for on the go, packs away nicely for a trip to grandmas house.
Graco is an amazing budget friendly brand and I used their travel system with baby #1.
Explore Travel Systems | Strollers
I love that these are now becoming more popular, a great budget item if you cannot spring for a wooden changing table, I probably used my wooden one only a handful of times and it was a space hog, this guy would be much more space efficient!
Costzon Portable Foldable Baby Changing Table
If you love the Hatch but don't love the price this is a close second for me!
Dreamegg Baby Sound Machine w/ Night Light
My pack n play was probably my MOST used item 4 months onward. I took it everywhere and my son loved to play and sleep in it. Crib who?
Graco Pack 'n Play® On The Go™ Playard, Kaden
If you want a bassinet with some great features and wont break the bank this is a great option!
VaVaSoo Electric Rocking Bassinet, Grey
If you want a bouncer that wont break the bank then this is the one I highly recommend, I used it with baby #1. Sadly I did not keep mine for baby #2 or I would have used it again.
Graco DuetConnect LX 2-in-1 Baby Swing & Bouncer
Another budget friendly option and great for on the go to grandmas house!
Bright Starts Playful Paradise Vibrating Baby Bouncer with Toys: Detachable Toy Bar, Machine Washable Seat Pad, Calming Vibrations, 3-Point Harness
Bath & Care
These saved my life with my first born! I absolutelty will be using them again! I was not a fan of the teething necklaces as I was a bit paranoid.
Dr. Talbot's Chamomile Soothing Tablets, 140 Ct
Absolutely a great find and if you don't have Sams Club but you do have Costco they have a great option by Kirkland!
Member's Mark, Advantage Premium, Infant Formula, 48 oz.
An amazing option and budget friendly when it comes to wipes. They have many different options which I love, I used them with my first and will be using again with my second.
