The best bedside bassinet. We had a different one with our first and it was not stable. This one is rock solid! As a postpartum doula I’ve used so many bassinets! This one is the best to transition to a crib.

Skip the other swaddles! Baby wants their hands and this provides the best of both worlds. Pro tip: order several in the same color so you have a different color for each size. Example) all of our newborn are gray, the next size is blue, and so on!

Take away the puffiness. After an IV and C-section, I was so puffy! This helped me feel more like myself those early days.

The most comfortable postpartum support! I tried the hospital one, another big brand name, and then finally this one! This is by far the best support and the most comfortable.
