baby must haves
as a new mom, these items have helped me get through the first six months of my baby’s life! i hope they can be as helpful for you as well
love this travel system. the car seat is amazing and the stroller is even better. the stroller is so easy to fold and super light!
Zelia™² Luxe 5-in-1 Modular Travel System
this is my number one recommendation if you’re expecting. even if you don’t breast feed this pillow is super helpful. you can use it for tummy time, propping them up, lounging. my daughter is 5 months old and still uses it.
Shop the Best Nursing Pillows Collection
i’ve never needed to use any other kind of bottle because these were perfect. anti colic AND easy to clean.
this pitcher has helped me out so much! i love the pitcher method and it makes your life a little easier. if you’re pumping it can be used for that too!
Dr. Brown's® Formula Mixing Pitcher
i love muslin! this material is so breathable and the burp cloths are very absorbent. they are big enough to throw on your shoulder for burping.
Yoofoss Muslin Burp Cloths 10 Pack Organic
muslin is the best breathable material for a baby! especially for swaddling a newborn. still use these blankets to this day since they’re lightweight and i live in Florida!
Cotton Muslin Swaddle Blankets
i love this play pen! it’s mesh so baby won’t hurt themselves, and it’s big enough for when they start crawling! my baby loves to have all her toys in there and crawl from corner to corner.

if your baby is like mine and won’t take pacifiers ever, then i recommend trying this one. it is the only pacifier she has ever enjoyed.
Ultra-light StayPut Pacifier
the best bathtub! when she was a newborn i wasn’t scared to use this at all! its not uncomfortable for them at all and they can use it for a long time. you can even flip the tub and use it that way when they start to outgrow it!
Bathing – angelcarebaby
this sound machine has SO many settings! you can control it from your phone which has more settings. i found that the hatch was a ridiculous price point so this is a cheaper alternative! the light is also a bonus for night feedings !
Momcozy Baby Sound Machine White Noise

these clothing brands are amazing! some are more expensive than others but i promise you are paying for quality!
bamboo is the best and most stretchy material for baby clothes! little sleepies in particular has some really cute prints. my girl is 5 months old and still wearing 0-3 months! they have amazing holiday themed prints as well!

diapers and wipes
every baby needs a good diaper and good wipes. here are my top diapers and wipes that have never broken my baby out and i swear by them.
these diapers are so good! they don’t break out my baby and they’re made with 0 chemicals. super soft and absorbent which keeps baby dry!
Rascals
these might be the softest diapers ever. they don’t call them luxury for no reason. they are not made with chemicals or lotions which helps with not breaking baby out!
Millie Moon
the honest wipes are really good! they have a good texture, sturdy, and just moist enough! no harsh chemicals or scents!
Baby Wipes
these are a go to wipe in our house. no scents , no chemicals. just pure wipe. they have a good texture and wetness to them. and they are super sturdy.
Huggies Natural Care Sensitive Baby Wipes
these are the best wipes and they are so affordable as well. super wet and super textured. i would compare these to honest wipes if you’ve ever used them. (just so much cheaper)
Premium Sensitive Wipes

my baby took to this cup on day one no joke. she can drink out of any straw now! plus it is leak proof (and baby proof)
