My favorites for potty training my girls and everything you need to be fully prepared.

Okay, real talk: postpartum is beautiful… and also a little chaotic, leaky, emotional, and exhausting 🫠 This list is for the things I actually reached for after having a baby — not the “looks cute on a registry” stuff, but the thank-God-I-had-this essentials for both mom and baby. Think recovery items that actually help, comfy basics you’ll live in, and baby products that make those early weeks feel just a tiny bit easier. No overwhelm, no unnecessary gadgets, no pressure to “bounce back.” Just practical, comforting, sanity-saving finds that support you during the newborn fog. If you’re a first-time mom, a seasoned pro, or shopping for a friend who’s about to give birth — this is the list I’d text you and say, “Trust me, you’ll want these.” 🤍

This is a list of all the baby things we purchased based on lots of friends recommendations. Links should take you straight to websites. Feel free to add questions or comments!
