I currently have a 4 year old, 3 year old, and 8 month old! I have tried and tested many baby products, and these are a few of the things I recommend to EVERY new mom!

Bathing
This offers good support for baby, dries out quickly, and is east to throw in the washer, unlike other sink bathers.
Frida Baby Soft Sink Baby Bath Seat
I love that this brand has simple ingredients, no scents, and is great for sensitive baby skin. This pack is everything you need for bathing/diapering needs!
Aquaphor Baby Skincare Essentials Gift Set - 3pk
Breastfeeding
If you plan on breastfeeding, this will save you so much extra milk (or liquid gold)!
Haakaa Manual Breast Pump with Base
The comfiest, most affordable nursing bra that doesnt stretch out or make you look saggy.
Women's Nursing Yoga Bra - Auden™
Sleep
my favorite sleepers for babies!
Floral Cotton Sleep N' Play - Cloud Island™ Pink
the best sleepers! - another cute design
Zip-Up Sleep N' Play - Cloud Island™
This is the coziest, not too big or too small, not too warm or too cool, just-right, baby blanket! Available in several colors.
Konssy Waffle Baby Blankets, Nursery Blankets
Best sound machine/nigh light with the option to control it completely from your phone.
Hatch Rest Baby Sound Machine
Not all velcro swaddles are created the same--I have tried many, and these are by far the best. They are soft but snug and keep baby swaddled tight and peacefully sleeping.
SwaddleMe Velcro Swaddles 3 Pack
Travel systems
I absolutely LOVE that this can be a single or double stroller depending on what you need, there are so many attachments that can be purchased to make it exactly what you need! Check my list for a more budget friendly option.
Baby Jogger City Select 2 Stroller - Radiant Slate
This is a budget friendly modular stroller. I have used a friend's but have not owned one myself. I am a fan of modular strollers if you have multiple kids because you can make them into whatever you need depending on your kids ages.
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Modular Travel System
Everything else
I didn't think I liked baby wearing until I tried this wrap! This is the softest, most breathable baby wrap. It doesn't stretch out and is so comfortable for you and baby! I wish I knew about this wrap with my first 2 babies.
Solly Baby Wrap
This activity center will keep your baby entertained so you can finally fold that load of laundry!
Skip Hop Baby Activity Center
This paci has the stuffed animal attached so that baby can learn early on to grab it and put it back in his mouth. More helpful than you might realize!
WubbaNub Detachable Pacifier
not bulky and great when you need to set baby down, but they love to stay in motion!
