As a first time mom, these are the items that have made this transition into motherhood (parenthood - Hubby uses these too 😁) so rewarding and easy. We spent a lot of time researching things we knew we needed, getting advice from parents who are friends, and even trying out items while I was pregnant just to see if we liked it. I’ll be giving recs for all my faves, and be sure catch all the tea that I dropping about each item.
I purchased these items to help occupy my busy, and never stopping 16 month old toddler for our recent plane trip. I did a lot of research before purchasing to find items that would hopefully be engaging, enternaining, and also small enough to fit a large quantity into our diaper bag.

Post Partum Care is can be such a confusing, exhausting, and painful time. It can also be a time of happiness, pleasure, and true joy. Bringing life into the world is challenging and beautiful at the same time. For new moms, it is absolutely imperative that you set yourself up for self care after giving birth. As a mom myself I have seen and experienced that challenges and the successes of giving birth and navigating post partum, and so I want to share items that worked for me and other options that may be something you would want to consider for yourself. Not all of these are perfect fits for everyone, but most are. Take a look and possibly shop these items for yourself..... And to the new mom's browsing, CONGRATULATIONS on your new bundle(s) of love. God Bless!
This list is all about new mom essentials that are actually for us…not the baby. Because no one tells you how much you need your own little survival kit once the newborn phase hits🩷 And honestly? These are the things that kept me feeling somewhat human.
Different and big toys for children! Great for big birthday gifts and going to a good friends house to play! Toys that help children learn and grow during play.
Our daughter and nieces and nephews are older now, 21 of course :) so it was fun to try and celebrate with them but we also know they'll be out testing the water with friends and later after the birthday, they'll slowly go out if they aren't already. With these gifts, it wasn't only ‘fun props’ that I wanted to give but other items for them to be safe during these times, some for comfort and some for play. All these are good for any age and for anyone with older goods, good luck! Happy 21st 😍
