These are the bottle we use. We tried some others but ultimately Phillips advent won! The plastic ones specifically. I also got the glass ones but we did not end up liking them. The plastic ones are much better because they are easier to use and much...
Compare our Natural baby bottles | Philips AVENT
This is the one I got. I like it because it’s basic. Not a bunch of unnecessary bells and whistles. It gets the job done and doesn’t break the bank! Easy to clean and to set up which is always a plus!
HONEY JOY 6-in-1 Convertible Baby High Chair
I used these pumps while breast feeding. I found them best when traveling or doing stuff around the house. They are nice for when you’re are busy and they get the job done but I will say, I recommend the spectra pump when you have more time. If not, ...
Hands-Free Electric Breast Pumps | Best Wireless Milk Pump
Best pacifier we have found. We tried a ton and my baby wouldn’t take any but these ones. I did hear they are discontinued in store so you have to get them on amazon but soooo worth it! And who likes going to the store now days anyways? 😉
Sweetie Soother™ Pacifiers | Itzy Ritzy®
LOVEEE THESE! I like that it goes on like a shirt and not just around the neck. Although the next ones are nice for something but when they are wearing a super cute outfit this makes more sense. They can’t move this one around as much as the others. ...

Comfortable Sleeping Bag for Babies | Copper Pearl
Love this!! We have this set on a timer so it comes on at 8:30 pm right before bed time and stays on until 8:30am when she wakes up for the morning. I also love the night light so when I have to go in her room at night I can see. I can control everyt...
Hatch Baby Sound Machine & Night Light (Putty)
Game changer!!! This comes everywhere with us. My baby has FOMO sooo bad. If we’re out and about I must have this to drown out the noise of everything else going on to get her to sleep. Literally won’t leave the house without it! It’s a MUST.
Hatch Go Portable Sound Machine for Kids
This is the exact one I have. It’s simple, cute and gets the job done. I rock her to sleep in the every night. Also quite comfy for just being a basic rocking chair so that’s a plus!
SAETSFEG Teddy Upholstered Rocking Chair
My baby monitor!
Love this monitor! I also had the owlet one and this one beat that one out. I like how there’s a full screen device that you can carry around and set up on your nightstand at night instead of always having to check your phone. Great battery life and ...
