Health and Wellness
Diapers, wipes, etc!
Expensive, but SO worth it to me. We had a preemie baby who was monitored in the hospital for her oxygen and heart rate for a few days. Having this on her while she sleeps helps put my anxious mom heart at ease for a little while. I wish insurance wo...

Our favorite bottles!
Our baby loves these bottles and nipples! We tried doctor browns and Philips avent anti colic, and she would spill a lot of out those. Plus, they can be washed/sterilized in the dish washer which is a HUGE plus!
Philips Avent Natural Glass Baby Bottles 4oz 4-Pack
A little pricier… but we genuinely use or have used everything in this bundle! Baby girl was a preemie and the only bottle she would take at the beginning was the Doctor Brown’s. I also use the sterilizer/warmer everyday and love it! It’s small so it...

Travel
On the go necessities!
The only baby carrier I have been able to use the past 4 months! Having a preemie, she was not able to be put in other structured carriers as she did not meet the weight requirements. This wrap saved us on so many shopping trips, walks, and even just...

This diaper bag holds SO much and is super cute! It comes with a ton of pockets for easy storage, and is super light weight so it never feels heavy with all of my baby’s belongings in it!
