These are items that, 2 years later, I would highly recommend adding to your baby registry. I did a lot of research around my purchases, and made my decisions around the research I had available. I stand firm on these recommendations

Favorite Items We Used
We absolutely loved our Chicco car seat. My daughter used it for almost a full year, and we only transitioned for my convenience with a rotating seat!
Chicco KeyFit Max ClearTex Infant Car Seat
We are obsessed with this car seat. It’s not too far reclined, the turn is easy and smooth, and it fits in my ford escape (though it does shrink the legroom of a front seat passenger).
Chicco Fit360 ClearTex 360° Rotating Car Seat
I love that this attaches to the base directly!
Chicco Fit360 Mirror for Rotating Car Seat
Extra car seat base for the for 360! My favorite feature about the car seat itself is
Chicco Fit360 Rotating Convertible Car Seat Base
Far and away the best newborn swaddle. No outside Velcro that wakes baby up and the bottom zipper is perfect for diaper changes.
Swaddle Sleep Sack - Goose / 1.0 TOG
Our favorite sleep sacks by far! The zippers are set up perfectly, the bottom is wide, and the arm holes are not too big.
Transitional Swaddle Sleep Sack - Woof / 1.0 TOG
PERFECT for when they start walking. And there’s a zipper at the bottom for diaper changes if you do transition when they pull to stand like we did.
Footie Sleep Sack - Sorbet / 1.0 TOG
We have several of these and love all of them. You can’t go wrong with them. No WiFi and have lasted almost 2 years with 0 issues.
HelloBaby No WiFi Baby Monitor 5" Screen 30H Battery
This is better than the hatch! We love it so much!

Boujee Items We Have
We are obsessed with our quid! It’s so light and easy to travel with. The best travel stroller on the market, in my opinion! It’s worth the price.
Inglesina Quid³ Travel Stroller - Planet Green
We LOVE the Keenz wagon. We do zoo and amusement park trips frequently, and these make it so much easier with a toddler.
This was worth its weight in gold after spending time in the nicu and exclusively pumping. I will recommend it to every new, busy, exclusively pumping or bottle feeding mom. It’s quicker than the dish washer.
Momcozy KleanPal Pro Baby Bottle Washer & Sterilizer
We did this mini crib after about a month of coming home from the NICU. And I will take this over the bassinet every single time. My baby found it more comfortable and it was about the same size in our room, but able to be used much longer. Now it’s ...
Davinci Otto 3-in-1 Mini Crib with Mattress
Nursing and Solids
I liked being able to store milk in these, and now at the toddler stage we use them for smoothies and yogurt.
Mason Bottle 8oz Breast Milk Storage Jars (12-Pack)
These bottles worked really well for my nicu baby when she got home, ultimately (I believe) helped her learn to nurse because they promoted a natural latch.
