Congratulations!
All things baby. Kind of couture and an absolute delight to check out. Every time I’ve called or gone in anyone I’ve worked with has been so kind and knowledgeable. Gifting? They can help you get just the right pieces. Shopping for your own little? O...
Posh Baby
A good baby carrier is essential. As great as it would be, you don’t get to grow extra arms as you grow a baby so having a comfortable (as in ergonomic), easy to clean, breathable carrier is kind of the next best thing. I kept my Ergobaby Omni in the...
Ergobaby Omni Classic Baby Carrier 0-48M
This one might seem a little strange but trust me when I tell you that there’s a postpartum period where it’s just…. swampy. You’re kind of gross. You’re kind of sweaty. You seem to smell worse, at least to yourself, so get a good dude deodorant. I l...
Dr. Squatch Natural Men’s Deodorant - Coastal Mist 2.65oz
Pumping
The convenience of being able to grab this from target is so nice. You don’t have to wait on insurance. It’s not wildly expensive. It’s almost always just available when you need it. This pump has saved no breast-feeding journey three times now curre...

Use this to frost sore and cracked nipples like a little cupcakes and you’ll be so happy with yourself. It soothes and protects them from sticking to your clothes/bra. Peeling anything off of cracked nipples is horrible! Protect them!! Don’t forget t...

Sleep 💤
We have used the hatch rest with all of our kids. We have programmed red for rest/sleep. Green for storytime. And yellow for daytime playtime each one has a different sound associated with it. The red is a nice white noise. You can control the volume...
Hatch Baby Sound Machine & Night Light (Putty)
Loved this with the first, loved it even more with the second and will absolutely be using it with the third! I like the Luxe model best for its flat footing. The others all have a pyramid style propped up footing. Doesnt look as sturdy to me (so fee...
HALO BassiNest Soothing Swivel Sleeper 3.0S
Baby Bottom
Great price, no weird smell! Check out the ingredient list. There are ingredients to soothe little baby cheeks. I also use these are faces and hands regularly! My kids have never had an issue with them.
RICO Baby Wipes, 720-count
We got these with our first and they have made it through the second, ready for the third. They are easy to wash, soft and comfy for baby and they roll up nicely when you’re not using them. All the other style of changing pads were always slick which...

Potty Training
Tired of changing diapers? I gotchu! This book saved us and made potty training so easy with our first. It’s almost time to start the adventure with our second and I’m thankful to have this in my library already! 🚽🧻 I don’t even need all the finger...
