Sleep can feel impossible in the early months. This is my curated collection of tried and tested baby sleep favourites that help make nights a little easier. Whether you're dealing with frequent wake-ups, an overtired newborn or bedtime battles, thes...
This was a great gadget to have! Peace of mind knowing exactly what temperature it was in the room, but also a 2 in 1, as it was a great calming night light that came in handy for nappy changes in the night. I still have this in my daughters room now...
Tommee Tippee GroEgg2 Toddler Nightlight LED
I never thought I'd need a blackout blind! My daughter was a great sleeper, and the light never bothered her when she was a baby. Toddler stage hit us and I was so wrong. We needed one! This was a good one to take away with us too!
Tommee Tippee Portable Black Out Blind Regular
I love everything MAM! I always wanted me baby to have the comfort of a dummy for sleep. I know it can be hard to drop when they are older, but I wanted my daughter to have one and I also liked how they were associated with reducing the risk of SIDS,...
Mam Start 0-2M Night Soother 2Pk - Uni
It was so handy to have a portable white noise machine! I'd have it around the house and when we were out on walks. Another bonus of a portable one, was when we went on holidays, it was better than taking our big one!
Bestand White Noise Machine D11, 11 Sounds, Night Light, USB Rechargeable
My daughter didn't like being swaddled with her arms down, as she always wanted them up near her head! This was great on the nights she really couldn't settle. My friends with babies were the ones to recommend this to me!
Love to Dream Swaddle UP Baby Sleep Sack 1.0 TOG
1 tog was perfect for the summer for my baby. She loved her sleeping bags, so I had one for all kinds of weather! They are just great, I never knew about them till I had my little girl.
Duomiaomiao Baby Sleeping Bag 1.0 Tog Cotton
My daughter absolutely loved her sleeping bags when she was a baby. She was a winter baby, so we were straight into the 2.5 tog. She loved to have her arms up, so this gave her the freedom to do that and stay nice and cosy.
Mosebears Baby Winter Sleeping Bag 2.5 Tog
My baby was a winter baby, and our house would get very cold at night. I always had this sleepsack for those freezing nights, to make sure her arms weren't getting cold too. It was versatile though, as you are able to zip the arms off too!
MIKAFEN Baby Winter Sleeping Bag 3.5Tog
I was lucky enough to have one of these gifted to me when my daughter was born. It was a great little sleeping aid in the newborn stage, as it was less intense than the LED light and white noise machine when we first got home from the hospital and wa...
Sweet Dreamers Ewan Dream Sheep Grey
This was great to have in the house when my baby was a newborn. I'd use it for naps when I was watching over her, and even just to lay her in when I'd play with her too. She used to always look so comfortable and cosy in it!
Baby Nest Pod Lounger 0-12 Months Cotton
As well as using Awin the sheep, once she got used to that, we brought this LED light so we could make the whole room more red and calming. Even now, at 3 years old, she still sleeps with her red light in her room.
LED Touch Night Light, 13 RGB Colors, Remote
This was a great cot to have next to me! I loved having my daughter in arms reach, I managed to keep her in this for a year because she was a small baby, and this was a very generous next to me cot. I wish I could go back to that time and have her in...
Tutti Bambini CoZee Breeze PLUS Baby Cot Oak
As well as a portable white noise machine I could have around the house, I also had this one plugged in all the time in our room. She loved and still loves a lullaby on it. There's so many other sounds too!
