Favorite Baby Products
When you have a baby {as I’m sure many of you know} you use a lot of things to make the days and nights easier. It seems like the smaller the child is, the more accessories they need. We all know how overwhelming the baby products market can be, so I thought I would list out my top must haves that have been useful with Reed. I also included a few toddler toys for the older kids that have been helpful, aka Georgia approved. Would love to hear if I’m missing anything super useful. Comment and let me know :)
Baby Blanket
Have been using this left and right, so soft and was a cute hospital bassinet backdrop for some photos.
I had this for Georgia and loved it. Currently reusing.
Works wonders!
These were so cute in the hospital and will be easy (and pretty) for monthly photos.
Great for newborn photos.
Blowouts in the car are not fun, this makes cleaning them up a bit easier.
Cleaning all the bottles, but make it cute.
I took this to the hospital and have been sleeping with it on my nightstand ever since. I'm probably looking pretty haggarded from lack of sleep but at least my skin isn't dry.
Georgia thinks she is steering the stroller and being the best helper!
Split Screen Monitor
We still use a monitor for Georgia, it's more like a two way radio at this point but I knew we would need a split screen option for Reed. Maybe I'm old school but I like having the monitor separate from my phone. The Hubble camera has been great so far. It also has an online option so we didn't need to get another nest cam for Reed's room.
I like this one better than the boppy.
We had a travel bassinet with Georgia and she went into her crib pretty early so I never really investigated other options. This time around I'm keeping baby boy in our room a little longer and I wanted to be able to see him without having to sit up at night (apparently travel bassinets tend to be shorter). This one has been great and was easy to put together.
These fit our 9lb bundle of love perfectly. And they're so cute. The blanket has been really useful as well.
Back to the diaper bag life. After Georgia being potty trained this feels so foreign. Definitely keeping things minimal in the diaper bag this time around.
This was a cute gift and has been easy to keep up with. I'm ordering a second one for Georgia.
Was great in the hospital and at my nightstand now. Were apparently I have a million things plugged in.
Staying hydrated is my new hobby.
Schedules and sleep training tricks that worked for Georgia.
We use this for both kids.
For some reason I rarely wear a watch unless I have a newborn around. Since we are back in the routine of 2-3 hours feedings and watching the clock for nap times, I ordered this new watch band to have something cute to wear 24/7.
This is a whole new level of Mom-ing. It feels like I'm juggling many things and if I can keep Georgia happy that's a little more focus I can direct towards the baby. Here are a few things I've been leaning on. Obviously the ipad helps too.
A few snaps from the last few weeks!
