During my pregnancy, I struggled to determine what we would need when the baby first came home. This list includes items we use everyday and couldn’t live without during the newborn stage.
Our baby is primarily breastfed, but we had to supplement with formula in the beginning, and she took to these bottles very well
Pigeon PPSU Nursing Bottle Wide Neck 5oz 2pk
We love these sleep sacks because they hold her arms tight while letting her freely move her legs. It also has a quiet Velcro-like material that doesn’t wake her up
Momcozy Newborn Swaddles 0-3 Months, 2-Pack
We love these wipes because they’re extra big. We have used other, cheaper wipes, but we ended up just using more of them
Coterie Baby Wipes, 8 Pack, 448 Count, Unscented
Many newborn diapers didn’t fit our baby, and we loved that Millie moon size 1 had a cutout for her umbilical cord. They’re also very absorbent, and we haven’t had any blowouts.
Millie Moon products at Target
Our baby is primarily breastfed, and she took to these pacifiers immediately. We use them in the car or to quickly soothe her in stressful situations (appointments, etc)
Philips Avent Ultra Soft Pacifiers 0-6M, 4 Pack
The mini crib has been a lifesaver. It rolls really smoothly, so we can easily move her to whichever room we are in
The Wave Crib | Convertible Crib To Toddler Bed
In the middle of the night, I pump one side while breastfeeding on the other, and I pour the milk in this pitcher. In the morning we bag the milk, but it saves us by not having to bag and label in the middle of the night
32oz Glass Pitcher with Lid & V-Spout
We store bottles, bottle washer detergent, and formula in these
Baby Bottle Organizer 4 Pack Clear Stackable
This has absolutely saved us. We use it for bottles, pacifiers, and pump parts
Momcozy KleanPal Pro Baby Bottle Washer and Sterilizer
This pillow is super firm and supportive, and I appreciate that I can use it with back support
Momcozy CozyPro Nursing Pillow - Lumbar & Arm Support
I have a regular breast pump, but I find myself reaching for this one more. It is a game changer to not have to be plugged into an outlet or use a pumping bra
All-in-one M5 Wearable Breast Pump: Convenient & Discreet
Super easy to use and grab wipes. We have wipes from different brands and they all fit and stay wet
Perfect Pull™ Wipes Dispenser
Super easy to wipe and good for taller babies
Skip Hop Baby Changing Pad Wipe-Clean
We use this on every diaper, and she hasn’t had any diaper rash yet
Aquaphor Baby Healing Ointment Skin Protectant
We use these to apply diaper cream directly to her skin or diapers. This is especially helpful if you don’t want ointment all under your nails!
Baby Diaper Cream Spatula Applicator 4 Pack
Very useful investment, especially postpartum when it’s hard to get up and down easily while holding the baby
Paxton Swivel Glider & Recliner | Modern Nursing Chair
I knew I wanted a humidifier, and this one was perfect because it’s dishwasher safe and can take tap water.
