I am a new mother as you may know. My son is almost 6 months old, and so I did a quick little review of some of my favorite products that I have used.
There seems to be a million things that are MUST HAVE for a new parent, but these are just a few that I really love and don't know what I'd do without
If you are breastfeeding, you definitely need milk bags if your pumping. I use the Medela Pump in Style. I love it. You HAVE to get the Medela Bra if your going to pump. Best purchase. I could not stand to hold those dang suction cups to me for minutes, which seem like hours sometimes at the beginning.
I also don't know what I would have done without my Boppy pillow. I loved "my breast friend", but I found myself using the Boppy more often. I used the Breast friend a lot at the beginning when my son was tiny.
I love the Aden and Anais swaddling blankets and burp clothes! I have a bunch of different brands, but they are the best quality and feel the best to me.
The Cloud B Giraffe is a lifesaver. My son is such a light sleeper, so it helps a lot in tuning out noises.
I'm Obsessed with "Shea Moisture." I love their products. They are all natural, organic, and smell so good!
For some reason when picking out a diaper pail, I just assumed that the best one was the diaper genie. After doing a little research, I ended up getting the Diaper Champ. I LOVE IT. I actually had a diaper genie-I think they are terrible! The champ is awesome because it's easy to use- you don't have to squeeze a dirty diaper through a super tight hole and you can use ANY garbage can liner.
My son didn't think much of Sophie the Giraffe when we first got it, but as soon as he started teething, boy that is our go to! He loves it.
I love the Grass drying rack. I like to separate all my sons bottles and utensils. It feels cleaner, and I just feel that its more sanitary.
Last but not least, we have a play mat from Jacardi. I love it, and it's my sons' favorite device. We have the mobile swing, the vibrating chair, the Bumbo, but the play mat-he loves! Its very interactive, and this particular one is very expensive, but its so soft, and is washable.
One more thing, baby nail clippers! Most needed little utensil ever. I've broken a pair, lost one on a trip. You definitely need those handy at all times. As sweet and cuddly and innocent as babies are; their nails are like knives! Plus, they will cut themselves all the time, not being aware, so it's important to keep their nails trimmed. (:
The life jacket, I just recently bought from Target. I love taking my son in the water. He loves it. And this particular life jacket is so safe, you don't have to worry about getting water in their face. I'm so glad I bought it, it makes going to the pool so fun and stress free.
