A true Godsend during the casting stage! We would cut a piece off and put it at the top of the cast to prevent any rubbing against baby’s thighs.
Dr. Scholl's Moleskin Padding Roll 24x4.6in

These are perfect for blisters and sores on baby’s heel or wherever they may blister from bnb. I bought the store brand once to save a couple bucks and they never worked as well as Band-aid does.
BAND-AID Pro Heal 5 Day Ultra-Thin Bandages

This French cream is a MUST-HAVE for blisters and any skin adhesions! Your baby may have the nastiest rash while in casts and this clears everything up within 24-48 hours. A little goes a long way and we were thankful to have this on hand!

The sweetest lovey. We would put this lovey on our baby’s casts in the car seat after casting appointments. The casts are cold initially and it brought some comfort to our bub.

Must-have car seat!! This works perfectly with bnb!

I love how breathable these socks are! I’d size up for bnb as I prefer the socks to be the barrier between my baby’s skin and the boots.
Luna Baby & Toddler Bamboo Crew Socks 6-Pack
Â
The #1 recommended baby carrier while baby is in bnb! I bought one when my baby was 3 months old, but it didn’t fit right with the bar attached until he was about 5 months old. Now at 11 months old, I still use it daily.
I also have a TikTok of pla...

Magnetic Me Modal Newborn Sleeper Gown & Hat
Â
Love these sleep gowns for the casting stage! These made diaper changes easier throughout the night.
