This pillow was the GOAT for nursing. I didn't use it initially and then after a few weeks developed mom shoulder and this pillow helped correct that.
Boppy Nursing Pillow - Gray Beige Leaves
These worked way better than I hoped for them to. I didn't need any creams or anything.
Silverette Silver Nursing Cups - Regular | Babylist Shop
These were so nice for when I got clogged ducts, definitely helped with pain relief.
Lansinoh Hot & Cold Breast Therapy Packs | Babylist Shop
I got a few of these. Very comfortable and affordable nursing bra.
Women's Nursing Seamless Bra - Auden™ Black M: Maternity Wireless Knit Pullover
These were so helpful for me for overnight when I might leak. I didn't need a ton of them but I think I am a rarity with that.
Lansinoh Stay Dry Disposable Nursing Pads - 200 | Babylist Shop
These were great for catching milk on whatever side baby girl wasn't drinking out of. I would save everything I collected that day, combine it in a breastmilk bag and freeze it in case I needed it later.
WILLOW Catch All Cups Kit - 2pk
Delivery recovery
I was skeptical about these at first but they are actually surprisingly comfortable for what they are.
Frida Mom Disposable Boyshort Postpartum Underwear - Gray, Regular | Babylist Shop
Any maxi pads are great but I personally used these and the ones I got from the hospital.
Frida Mom Postpartum Maternity Pads: Chlorine-Free, Super Plus Absorbency, Extra-Long, Dye-Free - 18ct
This was literally a lifesaver. I don't know what I would have done without this, the one you get at the hospital is not functional at all.
Frida Mom Upside Down Peri Bottle | Babylist Shop
These were much needed that first week, they were a lot more comfortable than the one the hospital gives to you.
Frida Mom Instant Ice Maxi Pad | Babylist Shop
This was definitely needed. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked.
Dermoplast Pain, Burn, and Itch Spray - 2.75 Oz | Babylist Shop
This is the complete postpartum kit from Frida mom. I personally didn't use everything in this kit but I know a lot of people who loved everything in it so I still wanted to link it.
Frida Mom Labor and Delivery + Postpartum Recovery Kit | Babylist Shop
Snacks
This was my go to snack postpartum. it only took about 10 minutes to make and you can change up the flavor by adding different sweetener or nut butters.
Kodiak No-Bake Protein Ball Mix Oatmeal Chocolate Chip - 12.7oz
I also loved having these as an easy snack, they were a bit more work than the no bakes but still delicious
Kodiak Protein-Packed Muffin Mix Double Dark Chocolate - 14oz
Another easy and high protein snack. I really enjoyed these and they are delicious.
Oikos Pro Strawberry Banana Cultured Dairy Drink - 23g Protein 7 fl oz
