Bath 🛁
Baby’s bath time is such an amazing calming bonding experience. Both of my kids have had sensitive skin and my youngest has eczema. I’ve tried products that just will not work for that and only recommend things that haven’t caused a flair up for him ...
This stuff smells really nice, and doesn’t irritate baby’s skin which is a pretty big deal 🩷

Diaper & things
Things that work for super sensitive skin, ultra absorbent, and less blowouts. Products to heal diaper rash quick 🫰

Honest Baby Wipes
The ultimate barrier protection for baby’s bottom. Helps heal any redness or dryness too. This isn’t specifically for babies but it’s what we got from the nicu and I’m on my second tube now. I love the sponge applicator so no need for a separate spat...

Honest is by far my favorite diaper brand, you get cute designs, hypoallergenic and ultra absorbent. They all feature a wet indicator line and sinze Newborn and 1 feature an umbilical cutout.
The Honest Company Clean Conscious Disposable Diapers
These are my second choice and extremely close competitor to the honest brand. I love how soft they are! They are good for sensitive skin and feature the newborn cutout as well. The only disadvantage is they are so fluffy you can’t really do a squish...

Sleep
Sometimes getting baby to sleep can be a challenge. Sometimes we have a hard time sleeping due to worry. Products that help me and my little guy sleep better.
Don’t even buy a different swaddle blanket, these are the best because the Velcro secures baby, their arms won’t escape causing them to wake up with these.

I swear by this swing. It put my daughter right to sleep. It has an app and Bluetooth control which is nice. You can also play your own music or one of the sounds that are preprogrammed. It’s worth every penny.

I LOVE my bassinet so much. The height is adjustable and it goes pretty high or low which works great for my bed. Love having baby up beside me at night. The morning mist also comes with a carrying case for when you travel.
HALO BassiNest Flex Portable Bassinet - Morning Mist
I am so glad I ordered this. It safely cocoons baby on the sides and still rests flat on the basinet for safe sleep. It helped my son feel more snuggled in as a newborn. It’s machine washable and dryer safe which is huge.

It has a good variety of songs, the lights and movement help lull baby to sleep. You can also just have the lights or music or even ocean sounds with our without lights. I like that you can secure it to the crib or pack n play corner.

Sometimes bringing a baby out can be hectic, but these items make it a little less daunting.
Having something to entertain baby in the car is so important for those drives. I really enjoyed this for the car seat handle it doesn’t fall off so it’s really nice to not have to put it back on all the time.
Infantino Spiral Activity Toy - Neutral Deer
This thing is GREAT. I wished they had these when I had my first ten years ago but I’m glad I have it now. The ease of putting it in stroller mode it’s just holding one button to get it out of the base then another to release the wheels. It’s so conv...
