As a first time mom, these are the items that kept us sane during the newborn phase. We tried really hard to not create a high maintenance baby, but some of these just really made life easier for her and for us!

Making Mommy’s Day Easier
This may seem odd, but these mesh bags are a lifesaver for tiny baby socks getting put through the laundry. Baby socks are so easy to lose and these bags help to keep every pair together. You could also use these for hats or bows!
GOGOODA 7Pcs Mesh Laundry Bags with Zipper
These collection cups are compatible with the Spectra pump and I am SO thankful that I learned this early on in my pumping journey. They actually make you feel like the Spectra is portable/cordless! They have only a few parts to clean and hold up so ...
Medela Hands-Free Collection Cups for Freestyle Flex
Oh Baby Baby
Best travel system everrrrr!!! Strollers these days are nothing like what I remember using years ago, but this set is a great price for a luxury design! It did take a few YouTube videos to understand how to use everything, but we are obsessed with it...
Joie Baby Travel Systems | Car Seat & Stroller Combinations
This may be controversial, but we would not have survived without the snuggle me lounger. Sometimes you need a cozy space for baby to hangout and this lounger is portable!! It is NOT considered a safe spot for baby to sleep unsupervised, but when you...
Infant Loungers
10/10 glass bottle option!! Highly recommend for babies that are breastfed or combo fed. The nipple is a slow flow which is so helpful in reducing air from being swallowed. Baby actually has to work to get milk out which mimics breastfeeding.
Pigeon Shop
We did not plan on getting a bottle warmer, but miss girl likes her milk warm and she likes her bottles made fast!! This bottle warmer is so easy to use and super effective. I haven’t used it for frozen breast milk yet, but have heard that it works w...
GROWNSY Fast Baby Bottle Warmer for Milk
Just buy it!! This nifty little device is so easy to use, comfortable for baby, and so effective. Totally beats the bulb suctions, nose Frida, or nose pickers. It’s also really quiet which is nice to not scare baby.
Momcozy Baby Nasal Aspirator, 3 Levels
Obsessed with this night light/sound machine. We use red light through the night which is great to still see in the room, but not confuse baby with daylight. We also use white noise or a heartbeat sound throughout the night which makes a big differen...
Hatch Rest Baby Sound Machine & Night Light 2nd Gen
Breastfed babies or babies that are bottle fed with breastmilk are recommended to have a daily vitamin D supplement. We have been using Dr. Green mom’s and have no complaints! Baby tolerates the drops well and does not seem to mind the taste.
Vitamin D3 Drops for Kids (400IU)
This is another momcozy must have! Baby nails are SHARP! We find this electronic nail file to be a game changer. It is quiet, safe, and quick to use! Our girly did not even realize we were filing and buffing her nails. The light is a really nice touc...
Momcozy Baby Nail File Electric, Gentle ...
This is the only swaddle our little lady will sleep in! We love that there is no velcro or noise made when removing the swaddle. You can also just unzip the bottom of the swaddle for diaper changes. The material is warm, but breathable. It washes wel...

Those newborn poops can be sticky and explosive! This bottom wash helps to preclean baby’s bottom and makes wiping wayyyy easier. It’s soothing and comfortable for baby while changing their diaper. You could also get a little spray bottle and just us...
Soothing Bottom Wash
No Bored Babies Around Here
If you’re like me, you brought your baby home and suddenly panicked that you didn’t know what to do with them when they are awake. You know the feed them, change them, burp them, rock them to sleep…but what do you do when they are still awake? These ...
A cozy spot for baby to get a change of scenery and positioning. Works the same and has the same quality of the higher end competing brands. Great price point for a high quality bouncer. Some newborns may be too small for this until a little later on...
Alpine Deluxe Portable Bouncer - Charcoal Tweed
This is another fun activity for your newborn to have around. It can be used for tummy time or as a sound machine to soothe baby to sleep. Our girly gets absolutely mesmerized by this toy, I joke that she’s going to turn into an iPad kid because of i...
