Bring this in your hospital bag. So much better than what the hospital provides.
Organic Nipple Butter Breastfeeding Cream
I liked how firm this was so that baby could be flat

Yes. Save yourself time. Don't wait to get it.

Have multiple sets, newborns love the contrast
Wee Gallery Art Cards for Kids | Smart Art for Little Minds
To be honest I didn't want a mobile but my babies loved it and it was nice to be able to put them in the crib content for a minute. Just remember to take it down if baby is napping in the crib and remove once baby can stand.
Mobiles & Soothers
I like this when the baby can't quite sit on their own yet. Provides a nice place to put baby, I would often bring them to the table in this so I could eat while they could watch and be a part of the family before they were eating solids.
Fisher-Price Sit-Me-Up Floor Seat
I love the foot support and that this converts to a table. I bought the chairs too. Also the music is not annoying.

I liked this a lot for tummy time, kept baby engaged and then was helpful for baby shifting weight while they reached out their arm.

Soothing sounds and soft light are great for tummy time
Fisher-Price Soothe & Glow Seahorse, Pink, with Lights & Sounds
Solids
Again there are so many products marketed.tpeatda starting solids, but these are some that made my life easier.
I've used their course as a first time mom to get comfortable with introducing solids. And their app is so handy for showing how to prepare different foods to make safe for baby
Solid Starts
Love this placemat. It folds up super nicely to keep in the diaper bag. And it's great for the high chair that attaches to tables.
ABC Foldable Placemat
Doesn't spill or leak. Can squeeze to teach baby to sip from straw.
Shop - Feeding - Cups - Straw
When I can't remove baby's clothes while they are eating, this stain remover has been a lifesaver.
Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray 4oz
This mat washes up so well
Splat Mat for High Chair - Large 51x46
This is a great one, it has a foot rest which is good for supported eating. And the mat hooks right over the arms which 1. Less mess and 2. helps baby from ripping it off
