This is THE BEST swaddle I ever owned for my daughter. Nothing else helped. She would cry and wake up by the hour prior to purchasing these! This helps babies to feel swaddled and snuggled but freedom to move their fingers and legs. My baby loved thi...

YES, it’s worth it, Just get it. Yes, you can use a trash can. But the last thing you will care about is going to the kitchen the in the middle of the night. Plus this traps the odor of the stinky diapers.
Diaper Genie

Listen, if I didn’t receive diaper Genie as a Baby-shower gift I definitely would’ve gotten this. It’s stainless steel so its traps odor much better. Also the convenience of using whatever bag you have available is a plus!

This is a staple item that needs to be in every nursery and diaper bag!! My baby never got a diaper rash!! It’s honestly thanks to Aquaphor. I used it after every diaper change. It’s a lot good to put on the skin during the winter months if you live ...

I used this along with Aquaphor overnight when my baby went to bed. It prevents the rash from coming. Also it has a soothing sensation that babies like.

Honestly I had a bassinet and it was extremely convenient for the first four months of her life. Then she outgrew it and transitioned to a playpen. They do have playpen bassinet from Graco and other brands which I had as well.

I was also gifted one of these for my baby shower & I absolutely used it everyday! Handwashing is fine and dandy but when your tired & burntout with a newborn? This will be a lifesaver!! Just make sure to keep it clean.

I truly like this bottle warmer. It was a dual function, bottle warmer and single sterilizer! WOW 😮! This helped me so much when my bigger bottler sterilizer/cleaner was running a cycle and I needed to sterilize a bottle or pacifier right quick!

Your little one will probably start teething at a couple months old I know mine did! At 6 months to be exact. This thing gives them instant relief you can see it on their little face 🥺! This combined with a cooling teething popsicle.

Burp clothes single handed saved me from a couple spitups. These are super thick too which I appreciated. Also I double down and use them as a shield on my newborn to keep her warm in the tub during bath time.

I was one of those mamas who made the choice to use a no WiFi monitor. And I don’t regret it. It gets the job done and gave me a peace of mind. This is perfect for when you’re busy around the house and baby is sleeping.
