I currently have an 8 month old son and these are the items that I personally found helpful, from pregnancy to postpartum, and places that are baby friendly that I love! As he grows it’ll probably turn into toddler recommendations, but for now, all t...
My son experienced really dry skin on both his ankles and the back of his knees. Tubby Todd has worked so well in healing his eczema! We apply it multiple times a day and his inflammation has decreased significantly! Highly recommend the fragrance fr...

I use this baby carrier everyday! Around 6 months I started facing him outwards and he loves it! Doing things hands free is a must lol
Infantino Flip 4-In-1 Convertible Baby Carrier - Black
Love the tote style diaper bag! We do have a backpack one as well, however I love that when you open this one up, you can see everything you need! It’s easy to organize everything in it. It comes with a lot of accessories that make it versatile!
These helped me so much! They were long and the cooling effect was perfect! The hospital did provide some coolings pads, but you had to break it apart to activate it. These are just cooling to the touch. Best postpartum pads ever!

Carter's: Baby, Toddler, and Children's Clothes
So I got this for Christmas because Calvin was finally able to sit up! But this wagon is game changer for him. He haaates his stroller but loves to sit up when going on walks. It’s been a bit colder where we are at, so I haven’t got to utilize it as ...

This little play set was great for us at the time. We were limited in space of our apartment so we utilized the bassinet a lot, until Calvin grew too tall for it lol. We still use it as his diaper changing station. We have detached the bassinet porti...

We opted for Ubbi over diaper genie. I honestly didn’t have a preference between the 2 but I do like ours lol. I feel like it fits more than 55 diapers. Ubbi also has these to go diaper bags that kinda give off doggy poop bag vibes and those are a ga...
For when we travel and trash cans aren’t accessible, thissss is great! I love this so much lol
on-the-go bag dispenser
