I am a married single mother. IYKYK. This list is full of things that have helped me get through these first 7 months with my baby and 8 year old. Some of them are NEEDS. Some of them were WANTS. Regardless of the cost, cheap or expensive, these were...

Number 1 baby item! Hands down worth every dollar. There is nothing I could possibly say to describe the peace of mind this system has given me. I have severe postpartum anxiety…..having this system has been the only reason I have been able to get th...

We LOVES our Hatch System. We use them throughout the day and all night. I love that they have the same sounds across each product. So my kids can hear the sounds they are used to no matter where we are when they are napping. It has definitely helped...

My son is a stage 5 clinger! This chair/swing thing helped get me 10 mins here and there when I needed two hands to do things. I know that doesn’t sound like much….but it truly is when that’s all you can get !

Unnecessary? Yes! You would be correct to assume that. 😂 but as a mom with extreme postpartum anxiety I needed my baby right next to my bed as a newborn. This bassinet was the perfect solution for me. My stage 5 clinger of a baby didn’t use it much ...

I am like a half “crunchy” mom. I use the glass and the plastic version. Now that my son is 6 months old we are in the wrestling phase of bottle feeding, so I find it helpful to have the plastics ones now. I do recommend having all nipple flows on ha...

Love. Love. Love. Has tons of space inside. Lots of pockets that have tons of space in them. I had another diaper bag gifted to me at my baby shower that was literally like $180 and I hated it from the beginning. It was tight and you not comfortable ...
Cloud Island : Diaper Bags

I live in an area with a lot of human trafficking. So being able to get my kids in and out of the car quickly and easily is a must. This car seat is heavy and a little bulky but it has been well worth it. It truly takes maybe 5 seconds total to get t...
Doona Car Seat & Stroller Collection

I have used this more than I ever expected to. Was one of those “just in case” purchases that turned out to be a need. My son is a stage 5 clinger and if he can’t see me he thinks the world is ending. So I slide this around the house for him to be in...

Mom stuff that saved my sanity! (Literally 😅)

Worth. Every. Penny. I have tried three different pumps. Three different styles. Manual, wall, and wearable. These pumps are hands down the best purchase I’ve made this go around as a mother. The suction is fantastic. You can truly customize exactly...

I use mine pretty much nonstop. I am constantly washing and sanitizing bottles, milk storage containers, pump parts, pacifiers, toys etc. this has been an absolute lifesaver. I almost wish I had two of them but we don’t have the counter space.
Bottle Washer Pro

Life saver! Takes the worry out of warming up bottles. I don’t have to wonder if it’s warm enough or too hot. I just set it to the appropriate time per ounce of milk and the select what time of container my milk is in and it does the rest for me.
Momcozy Fast Bottle Warmer with Timer
 
Ali Nichols profile picture
I’ll be honest I really didn’t think this was a must have in the beginning. But I quickly realized…..if I wanted or needed to go anywhere I needed to have a way to heat the milk to the right temp on the go. This is a must and it’s literally the easie...

As an over producer these have been a must have. Makes storing my milk after pumping super easy.
Momcozy Natural Baby Bottle, Wide-Neck, BPA Free

These supplements have helped support and increase my milk production. I truly can not rave about them enough. I went from not producing anything with my first child to being a major over producer with my second baby. My skin is flawless right now an...
Legendairy Milk®

You think you don’t need it…..take it from me….you do. Baby poop stinks worse than you realize. You don’t want to just put those diapers in your kitchen trash can. It will stink up your house fast. These are easy to use and realistically you’ll use i...

Big boobs, small boobs, flat boobs, full boobs. All the boobs love these. Super comfy. Makes breastfeeding and pumping with wearables so much easier. If you’ve never had engorged boobs and tried to make a regular bra work…trust me….these are worth i...

I know this one probably sounds silly to put on a list for mom/baby stuff. But seriously, if you’ve ever breastfed or pumped or literally just been a mom at all you’ll get it. This tumbler is the only one if had that actually keeps my drink ice cold ...

I have this beside my chair in my bedroom where I pump. I keep all my must haves on it to make it so much easier for me to keep up with all the stuff without the mess.
Goovilla 3 Tier Rolling Utility Cart with Drawer

I have mixed emotions about this chair. I love that it has charging ports on the side and that you just push a bottom for the reclining feature. However this chair has not held up well for the price. I literally lived in this chair for the first few ...
Mercer Electronic Power Recliner and Swivel Glider with USB-A and Type

I have two. One of each side of my bedroom. Our overhead lights are stupid bright. So I use these as our main lights. It creates a soft lighting situation so the baby isn’t disturbed or woken up when things have to be done. Being able to adjust them ...
