Top 10 Must Haves for New Babies
A year ago, I had my son and there were some things that made that transition from 1 to 2 much easier. I wanted to share what I products I found most helpful to me and my family while we navigated a newborn all over again! Each product worked so well that I felt the need to share it with you dolls! Keep reading to see what you think may work for you!
OWLET
This Owlet sock was really a peace of mind gadget. It helped my husband and I feel comfortable sleeping at night knowing that we had this little monitor on our little King’s foot to monitor his breathing and oxygen levels.
Dock-A-Tot
When the baby comes out of the wound, the world is such a big place and all they want is to be snuggled again and made to feel protected. Id like to think the Dock-A-Tot aided in this. It provided a tight snug place for baby to sleep in the Halo bassinet as well as in between mom and dad.
PIPA™ Flame Retardant Free Car Seat & Base by Nuna
The Nuna is sleek and super comfy for baby. While there may be car seats out there that are as equally as comfortable for baby, I don’t know any that are as sleek!

MIXX 2 Stroller & Bassinet Set by Nuna
I longed for the bassinet stroller and I wanted one that would support the NUNA car seat. So my husband and I found this gem.

Ergobaby Carrier & Infant Insert
The baby carrier is a must! It helps you at all times. Whether you are wondering around the mall or you are washing dishes and need baby near, a baby carrier is a must. This carrier was the most comfortable for baby and I and it provided room for growth. The infant insert is a must for newborns!

Medela Freestyle Hands-Free Double Electric Breast Pump
The need for this goes without saying. I was able to exclusively breastfeed my son for 4 weeks. It was a STRUGGLE! The BLISTERS! I mean that’s another conversation hunty! However, this is the best of the best in my opinion.

Nose Frida
For my daughter, we had the regular nose aspirator. You know, the one from the hospital…it worked well but she hated it and I was always worried about them molding in the inside. When you know better…you do better. This go around, we purchased the NoseFrida and life is much easier. The NoseFrida is much more gentle for the nose and can be cleaned thoroughly.
Philips Avent Ultra Air Pacifier 0-6m
I mean…A must for me and my family. Both of my kids were addicted and I couldn’t imagine life without it.

Harvey Essential Newborn Bundle by Lou Lou
I just love this company! This swaddle set was one of the first things that I put my son in and he loved it! We still (1 year later) have the blanket and use it often for his cuddles.

Design & Discovery – Diaper Bag Backpack
This company is worth the conversation. Super sleek look. We get compliments on this diaper bag everywhere we go. Durable and still (a year later) super cute!
