This year we welcomed out little girl into the world but found we were inundated with a million things you 'must have'. This list is designed for other mums overwhelmed by what to get and what not to. A bundle of things I've personally found super he...
Absolute must for little ones. Fitted and snuggly, like a hug in a sleep sack that makes them feel safe. My little one sleeps like a rock in this
Newborn Swaddles -Infant and Baby ...
Absolute must for postpartum. Big, comfy and absorbent. No leaks and you don't look like you're wearing a diaper under your jeans. Not sure what I would have done without them
Abena Premium Maternity Pads
So helpful for getting started. It contains loads of different options so you can find what suits you and your baby. Not 1000 pieces to wash either and super simple to sterilise
Bottle Feeding Starter Sets
Brilliant compared to other pumps. Hands free so you can get on with other things or tend to the little one without worry. Comfy and discreet you can pop in your bra
Best Electric Breast Pumps | Portable & Efficient
A lifesaver for your back. Whether your breastfeeding or bottle feeding, you have a comfy, supportive spot for baby. Also great for them napping on your lap, tummy time and helping them learn to sit up
Comfortable Nursing & Feeding Pillows for Parents
The only thing you need to help, especially in the first 2 weeks. Apply after every single feeding, even if you think you don't need it
HPA® Lanolin Nipple Cream
All in one health care kit for little one in a super handy box, so you don't lose things. I would have misplaced half of the items by now without it
Essential Baby Healthcare Kit
The only snot sucker you need. The others are bulky and hard to get the right angle on which stresses you and baby. This is much simpler and more comfy for little one
Nasal Aspirator for Baby NoseFrida + 4 Filters
These make breastfeeding so much easier! Also very comfy and like a normal bra
Maternity & Nursing Bras at M&S
Again, these make breastfeeding on the go so much easier. Thicker material and super soft. I live in mine
Zipper Nursing Tops
This company is the one you want. Beautiful and interesting designs that babies live staring at (or at least mine does). Lightweight to the point you can put up and down with one hand and good on all terrains. I work with horses and mine goes through...
Prams & Travel Systems
The only car seat you need for years. Comfy and adjustable, plus it spins so it's easy to pop the in at all ages
Buy the All in All 360 Rotate
We don't have a shower and this is great! Plenty of room for baby and a comfy pillow for them to lie on
Collapsible Baby Bath
Great nappies that we have had no leaks with at all!
Nappies Size 01
Great pacifier that don't interfere with breastfeeding and support good respiratory health
Dummies & Soothers
Great white noise machine but it also doubles as a great nightlight you can change the colour on. Red seems to be a popular one as it mimics the womb when combined with the sound
Baby Sound Machine
The perfect sling. Doesn't hurt your back or shoulder but no complicated wrapping. Can pop baby in one handed and folds up really small to pop in a bad
Ergonomic Baby Carrier Koala Cuddle Band
If you don't like the slings the mom cosy carriers are the best going. Soft, lightweight and super easy to pop on and off
Momcozy Baby Carriers & Wraps | Support Newborn to Toddler
For those bottle feeding, this will save your stress levels!
PerfectPrep
These have been brilliant for going out and about. Perfect every time
Portable Bottle Warmer
Saves so much time on washing and drying bottles, especially if you're formula feeding/ pumping and using lots of bottles
