Gifts for New Parents (that I personally found so helpful)

items Some items that I've used that made the first year a lot easier so far. A lot of these free up my time and hands so that I can spend more time with my little one. Many of these aren't necessities, but if you're looking for a gift that'll make a diffe...
Quickly mixes up and warms up your formula. This has saved me so much time and trips up and down the stairs. The only con would be needing to clean the funnel every 4 bottles. Buying a 2nd funnel off Amazon was very helpful.
Baby Brezza Formula Maker
I had this before the baby, but I quickly found this useful because it allowed me to look/watch my phone without having to hold my phone. It's perfect for those facetime calls when family want to check in, or maybe wanting to watch something as the l...
Ringo Water Bottle
I honestly had to get this bottle washer/sterilizer, because my hands were getting so dry from constantly washing bottles and all the hot water I was using. No more dry, cracked hands! :)
Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro
These are a little expensive for a baby monitor, but the app features and reliability are what make it great. The alerts it gives helps put my mind at ease, when I go downstairs to do chores and make food.
Nanit Pro Smart Baby Monitor & Wall Mount
Instead of wasting money and creating waste with those huge distilled water jugs. You can get one of these. It's a little slow though, so you can't instantly get distilled water. Everyone once in a while, you'll need to replace the filter, but it's p...
Baby Water Distiller
Okay hear me out! With the newborn, it was a bit hard to find time to vacuum and clean the floors. My FIL bought us this and this blew my old Roomba out of the water. It automatically mops hard surfaces and lifts the mop and vacuums when going over c...

This will help with some of the soreness from delivery through postpartum. It doesn't have to be from a big brand such as Therabody. I did previously have a cheaper one from Amazon, but that broke pretty quickly, so I've since decided to use brands t...
Theragun Prime (5th Gen) - Therabody
For baby carriers, I've tried one from Ergobaby and Babybjorn. Although they were comfy, I think some of the straps made my baby uncomfortable. We both like the CUDL from Nuna and we're still using it happily today!
Nuna Cudl Baby Carrier
The Doona has been very convenient for switching between car seat and stroller.

These bouncers are always highly regarded and my little one definitely is comfy in it. The carriers from Babybjorn are also highly regarded but it didn't work out for us.
Baby Bjorn Bouncer
Great adjustable bedside bassinet. Also looks great in our room. The bottom shelf is also very convenient to keep diapers, wipes, and clothes in. Maxi-cosi is well regarded, and reselling this after use should be easy.
Maxi-cosi Iora Bedside Bassinet
I got this recently on a Black Friday sale. When I don't feel like buckling up a carrier, and am just walking around the house. It's been super convenient, especially for my weak little arms :(
Baby Hip Carrier - Tushbaby
We received this as a gift from my parents. It's very smooth and the bassinet was very useful when my baby was a new born. The stroller is great because we can use it through various stages, and it looks like the resell market is good for when we're ...
