Best Baby Essentials on a Budget

items As a mom of 2 under 2, I have had to use all of these products regularly! I live by these products! As they say, your baby is only as expensive as you make them. Great products for a great price.
Used this for both of my girls and I love it! I am currently still using it. Great for breastfeeding moms too, you can program it to have a dim light turn on when you need it! I also love the clock so I can see what time it is in the middle of the ni...
The Hatch Sound Machine
Used this for my second baby, my first one preferred to be fully swaddled but my second one does not! Gives her range of motion with her arms but also keeps her from startling herself.
Love To Dream Swaddle
My first baby loved this swaddle. My second not so much. My first loved sleeping in one position so this option was great for her. Also limited the night wakings and she slept for 1-2 hours instead of waking every 20 minutes! I would recommend using ...
Weighted Sleep Sacks, Swaddles and Blankets
This is an AMAZING product. I have such peace of mind sleeping when my babies wear this. When babies are very small sometimes the sock does not fit the best. My favorite hack is to use a small cotton sock over the Owlet and it stays in place better (...
Dream Sock® – Owlet US
I prefer to use Huggies over any other diaper brand. Limited blowouts, soft and comfortable for babies, and doesn't break the bank!
Huggies Diapers in Huggies
I use this as my only diaper cream. My daughters have very sensitive skin and finding the right diaper, wipe, cream combo was so difficult. I finally found using Vaseline after every diaper change is the key! No more diaper creams that won't come off...
Vaseline
I swear by this teething product. Natural product that you just squirt in their mouth. No more trying to rub on their gums. Works in minutes!
Camilia Teething Relief
Best product to get those stubborn boogies and ear wax!
Frida Baby Nose, Nail and Ear Picker, Grooming Accessories Set, Newborn ...
I could never get past the other nose suction option Frida has. Always thought I was going to suck in the discharge! This works great when kids are sick and have snotty noses!
Frida Nose Sucker
Best lightweight car seat I have found! No more breaking the back trying to carry your infant around. Works great with the Graco traveling system as well or my other stroller recommendation for 2 kids!
Graco SnugRide SnugFit Infant Car Seat
Best stroller for 2 under 2! Can perfectly fit the car seat as well as the bigger kid. Also grows with the kids and the car seat attachment comes out. I also love the bug net and sunshade features!
Wagon Stroller Baby Trend
Both of my girls have loved these pacis! One was exclusively bottle fed and the other exclusively breastfed and they both love it.
Tommee Tippee Pacifiers
Having a baby with reflux these are so handy. Clean spit up like a boss and are soft to baby's skin.
Muslin Burp Cloths
The best camera/baby monitor for my house. My house has had several additions and regular baby monitors wouldn't reach the other side of my house. I also like how both my husband and I can view the camera from our phones, even if we aren't home and t...
iBaby Care
I loved using this portable breast pump. Saved so much time not being plugged into a wall. I could also feed my newborn and pump at the same time! Great output as well, got the same production as with a hospital grade pump!
Best Electric Breast Pumps | Portable & Efficient
Great hospital grade pump that doesn't need to be attached to a wall! I always used when the babies were sleeping. Only downside is trying to use this while holding an infant is difficult.
S1 Plus | Rechargeable Double Breast Pump
Easiest and most straightforward bottle warmer I have used. Working at a daycare in high school and my older sister having kids I always saw these complicated bottle warmers. This is so easy and efficient!
Philips Avent Premium Fast Bottle Warmer
My breastfed baby and exclusively bottle fed baby both loved these bottles. I also liked them as the baby had to actively suck to get milk out, it didn't run out of the bottle and drown them like Dr. Browns or other bottle brands.
Natural Response & Anti-colic Baby Bottles | Philips Avent
Best car camera I have found. Using a mirror is so difficult and distracting. I loved being able to keep my eyes forward while placing a pacifier back in.
Itomoro Baby Car Mirror, Wide Crystal View
I'm not sure what type of crack Fisher-Price put in this play mat but both of my kids LOVEEEEE this thing!
Fisher-price Gyms & Playmats
I loved using this carrier when my babies were smaller. The other carriers were too larger for my babies, these carriers worked perfect!
Ergonomic Baby Carriers
I have two of these things! Great for taking on the go as well. Can just throw it in the car and you have everything you need! SO many pockets and keeps everything organized.
Diaper Caddy
Best product to use when baby is able to control head movement (4-6 months). Always kept baby entertained and busy when I was cooking or doing laundry!
Fisher-Price Sit-Me-up Floor Seat Portable Infant Chair with Toys ...
You can keep your sad beige bouncers that cost $$$. I have tried both and my kids loved the colors and I loved the price. They are also much more comfortable for the babies as they aren't sliding out of them.
Bright Starts™ Bouncers & Rockers
Hospitals even hand these out, and there's a reason. They are the best and safest sleep sack. Easy to use and comfortable for baby.
Wearable Baby Blankets - Halo Sleep
I tried the thick nipple cream, and it was so hard to use. This nipple butter is AMAZING. So easy to use, not thick at all. Moisturizes while healing. Saved my breastfeeding journey!
Organic Nipple Butter Breastfeeding Cream
A must have if you are going to breastfeed! My daughter is 7 months old and I still use this at night! Saves the arms and back.
Boppy Pillow
I have used this bath seat for both of my girls and it's the greatest! I have also used it outside of the bath as a seat on the floor or in the wagon cart.
Angelcare Baby Bath
Such a cute and effective bath spout cover. So glad I haven't had to stress over bath time injuries!
Skip Hop Baby Bath Spout Cover MOBY Blue
I use both of these thermometers religiously! I use the head thermometer first to determine if my kids have a slightly high temperature. If I need accurate precision, I use the rectal thermometer (use sparingly). I can also use the forehead thermomet...
