What does your baby need that 1st year?
46
items New moms, don't often know what they need for their little ones, until our babies teach us! Until then, here's a list of 1st year baby needs that can help you have a smoother experience!
You can never have too many sleepers that first 18 months. I changed my kids outfit 3 or 4 times a day!
Hudson Baby Infant Girls Cotton Coveralls, Mom Dad Floral
So yes this fits my granddaughter perfectly! Although I may be a little biased, she will be adorable in this!
Little Treasure Baby Girl Cotton Bodysuit, Pant and Shoe 3pc Set, Flawless
I love that Minnie Mouse is still going strong for this generation of kids! I can remember going to Disney when I was a kid, soon after they opened Epcot, and all I wanted was to hang out with Minnie!
Disney Minnie Mouse Baby Girls Bodysuit Pants Bib and Hat 4 Piece Outfit Set Newborn to Infant
As a mother who gave birth to a mini me, and now have a granddaughter that's a mini me of her mom, I absolutely love these!
Hudson Baby Infant Girl Cotton Long-Sleeve Bodysuits, Leopard Mamas Mini
GIRLS RULE! I want to see this next generation of little girls be strong and brave, because they'll likely face challenges like nothing we've seen since the 1920's. If bright, self esteem boosting clothes can help, I say we spread it around in mass...
Luvable Friends Baby Girl Cotton Bodysuits 5pk, Girls Rule
So I've had sticker shock when shopping for stroller sets for my granddaughter, but WOW they're lighter and more functional than they were 25 years ago! This one is so nice because of the ease from car to stroller!
Graco Modes 3 Lite DLX Travel System
Here's a other one that has ease of movement from car to stroller. It's so nice to just be able to snap it into the base, and know it's secure!
Graco Modes Nest2Grow Travel System - Ren
I had one of the early double electric pumps, but with the tubes and attached bottles, I looked like a milking station at the county fair! This is much better and more discreet.
Willow Go Wearable Double Electric Breast Pump Kit
This may have the tubes and not be completely mobile, but Medela makes high quality products and has great suction power!
Medela Hands-Free Electric Breast Pump
Not sure of the strength of suction fir this one, but the fact that it's wireless and can just slip in the bra and be "worn" is really cool, especially for those moms who pump on breaks at work!
Willow 3.0 Wearable Double Electric Breast Pump - 24mm
My daughter has this one, and it works well with the portability and no wires, but the suction is less, therefore it may take longer, but you'll have less discomfort.
Momcozy : Target
I love these open swings with built in real music! This is a HUGE jump from the wind up one I first had! 🤣
Safety 1st 5-Modes Bluetooth Baby Swing
Knowing I wanted a crib for when my granddaughter visited, but didn't want to take up a whole room, I opted for a mini crib! These mattresses fit perfect and it's plenty of room for your baby to grow into!
50% Off Mini Crib Mattress with Code 50QZ3XO5
So here's another example of me having sticker shock when shopping for a travel system! I have to admit the smooth transition, the ease in which it locks and unlocks in place, and the light weight are worth it! As a new mom, you'll carry a ton of t...
Maxi-Cosi Siena CP 5-in-1 Modular Travel System - Mystic Gray
Here's a other amazingly smooth travel system. They snap in place firmly, are secure for your baby, and look great to boot!
Britax Willow Brook Baby Travel System with Infant Car Seat and Stroller - Onyx Glacier
The Evenflow is a little milder in sticker shock, but still has great ease of movement. I do love the fact that it can be bassinet and forward facing!
Evenflo Pivot Suite Travel System with LiteMax - Dunloe Black
This system seems very sturdy and secure, but it doesn't have the clean lines in style that some of the others do. A great system, and very reliable, just not as attractive?
Britax Willow Grove SC Baby Travel System - Pindot Onyx
This stroller / bassinet combo is great quality, but isn't a full travel system. It's beautiful, and could be used for naptimes when you're on theive, but it doesn't have the carseat set.
Bugaboo Dragonfly Easy Fold Full Size Stroller with Bassinet - Midnight Black
This would be a great option with older children, once naptime and laying down are not needed. Very high quality and sleek lines!
Bugaboo Dragonfly Easy Fold Full Size Stroller - Gray Melange
So first, I want to commend anyone who needs a double stroller! Two is not double the work, it's quadruple!! This stroller is very functional even for a double, and would be a great option.
joovy 2022 Qool Double Stroller Bundle, Jet
Now I don't know how the engineering works with these, but they have been amazing fory granddaughter! She's never had much gas, and has used these for her first year! Highly recommend!!
Dr. Brown's 8oz Anti-Colic Options+ Narrow Baby Bottle with Level 1 Slow Flow Nipple & HappyPaci Pacifier - 0m+
If you're going with a system, having all of the pieces and parts only makes your life flow more smoothly. That first year has many bumps and bruises along the way, so make it as easy on yourself as possible!
Dr. Brown's Anti-Colic Options+ All-In-One Baby Bottle and Bottle Warmer Newborn Feeding Gift Setb - 38ct
This a great collection that you'll need around 4 months old. Before that the smaller bottles will work, but once they are eating more than 4 oz you'll need the 8oz bottles!
Dr. Brown's 8 fl oz Options+ Narrow Anti-Colic Baby Bottle - 6pk
This set is really nice because it has the cleaning brush, and a mix of sizes. A great shower gift for the new mom, or like me, the set you got to keep at your house for visits!
Dr. Brown's Anti-Colic Options+ Narrow Baby Bottle Newborn Gift Set
Of course this is the set I got for my first granddaughter..... Why wouldn't I? It's adorable and has all the starter pieces needed!
Dr. Brown's Anti-Colic Options+ Narrow Baby Bottle Newborn Gift Set - 0-6m - Pink
These can help the baby hold the bottle at an earlier age because of the shape. The nipple is also considered very "human like".
Tommee Tippee Advanced Anti-Colic Baby Bottle Set - 9oz/3pk
This set is a great buy for the new mom if this is her preferred feeding system. Or, for grandma to have at her house!
Tommee Tippee Advanced Anti-Colic Grow with Baby Bottle Set - 12pc

You want to make sure your baby is as safe and secure after their 1st birthday, as whet they were in their rear facing infant seat. This seat is top rated in all safety measures, and is a solid choice when you make that switch.
The Graco® TriRide™ 3-in-1 Car Seat helps to keep your little one safe from baby to big kid, through 3 modes of use: rear-facing harness (5-40 lb), forward-facing harness (22-65 lb), and highback booster (40-100 lb). The No-Rethread Simply Safe Adjust™ Harness System allows you to adjust the height of the headrest and harness in one motion, helping to save you time and ensure your child is properly secured. Choose the perfect headrest height from 10 positions and adjust the seat to 6 recline positions for a better installation. The easy-to-read level indicator helps eliminate installation guesswork and the car seat is LATCH-equipped for easy installation. The integrated harness storage compartment keeps the harness safely stored away, without removing, while in belt-positioning booster mode. Open-loop belt guides help properly position your vehicle’s seat belt across your child in highback booster mode. 2 easy-to-clean cup holders keep your child's drinks and snacks close at hand, and the seat pad is comfortable and machine washable for your convenience. Removable plush head and body inserts help to keep your infant feeling cradled and comfortable. Steel-reinforced frame provides strength and durability for years of use. This car seat is Graco® ProtectPlus Engineered™ to help protect in frontal, side, rear, and rollover crashes.
