This is my all time favorite diaper rash cream. My son has sensitive skin and it worked wonderfully every time he started getting red
Desitin Maximum Strength Baby Diaper Rash Cream with Zinc Oxide - 4oz
Aveeno is nada down the best baby wash. It’s so gentle for those with sensitive skin, so very lightly scented, and doesn’t dry baby’s skin out. Doesn’t hurt that it makes great bubbles in the bath as well ☺️
Aveeno Baby Gentle Wash & Shampoo with Natural Oat Extract For Sensitive Hair & Skin - Lightly Scented - 33 fl oz
I love these because the clippers are tiny and thin for the baby’s nails but the handle is large enough to make it fit in your hand. Good control and fingers crossed no booboos!
Safety 1st Fold-Up Nail Clippers - 2pk
These quickly became a must have. Those dry boogies and sticky fingers don’t stand a chance. I prefer the unscented for baby’s sensitive skin but they also make them in a free scent!

These were my son’s favorite! Had about a million from the car, to the house, to grandmas 😂 any others and he’d turn his nose up to them

Spectra was the best pump I ever used. It’s a plug in, has great suction, very durable, and many settings to best fit your bodies needs. There is even a little night light on it for nighttime pumps!
Spectra S2 Plus Hospital Strength Double Electric Breast Pump
It’s all part of the territory, even if it’s not fun. But this cream really does help bring relief in those moments. This is my favorite because it’s lanolin free and you can nurse and pump without wiping it off first

I loved having my baby right next to the bed. It made night feedings easier, gave me more peace of mind, the list goes on and on. The Halo Bassinet was super stable, has a night light, vibration and sound too!
HALO BassiNest Swivel Sleeper 3.0 Baby Bassinet - Gray
This sock right here gave me so much peace of mind! It tracks oxygen levels and heart rate. Has an alarm that goes off if they cross into unsafe territory. An App for you to track while bag is sleeping. It can be pricey but it’s 100% worth it
