Jumping ahead a few years, my High School sweetheart is now my wife and we are starting to try for a family. This will have ups and downs that I will definitely go over at a later date. To start however, because we are in the thick of it, I have created a list of baby items that I am learning are a must. I'll break down full reviews in a separate post, but in general, here is a quick list of some of the items we used and the one we have purchased;
Crib Mattress - Newton Baby Crib Mattress - https://amzn.to/3JJRh1t
Amazing how breathable this is. I have no worries when she is there.
Pack n Play - REMI Playard - Stella - https://amzn.to/3rpiCjd
This has been a huge asset. It allows us to put her down wherever we are so we can clean, take care of random tasks, and allows me to work and watch her.
Bassinet - Baby Delight Beside Me Dreamer Bassinet - https://amzn.to/43c7vHD
Huge win here. This has allowed my wife to see and comfort her throughout the night without having to get up.
Monitor - Momcozy Video Baby Monitor - https://amzn.to/44CnVu0
Great quality and great sound. This has helped when we need to be doing chores around the house and don't want to keep moving the pack n play.
Car Seat - Nuna Pipa Lite Rx + Base - https://nunababy.com/usa/pipa-lite-rx-infant-car-seat-with-relx-base
So light and easy to use. The base is super easy to install. Also, being she was a premie, this car seat came with pads to change out allowing us to make sure she is safe.
Car Seat Shopping Cart Attachment - Totes Babies - Car Seat Carrier - https://amzn.to/3NEyTsh
Another huge win. This shopping cart attachment makes it easy to bring her to the grocery store with us. Now it does take up a lot of space in the cart, but much better than making one parent stay home.
Stroller – UPPAbaby Vista V2 Stroller - https://amzn.to/3XXxwd3
So easy to interchange from bassinet to car seat. Also, the bassinet has doubled as a pack n play while she is still a newborn.
Stroller Attachment - UPPAbaby Cup Holder for Vista - https://amzn.to/44fYsqE
Huge plus, we can now grab coffee or just carry water while we walk
- SmartDevil Portable Clip on Stroller Fan - https://amzn.to/3rqKX8M
Awesome attachment that has worked wonders in the summer heat. Doubled as a cooling fan in the hospital during delivery.
Breast Pump - Spectra - S1 Plus Electric - https://amzn.to/3JQiiAq
This pump is a life saver. With our baby as a premie, she has had a hard time latching, and as such we are pumping and using bottles.
Pump Carrier - Luxja Double Layer Bag - https://amzn.to/3PNyJl8
Super convenient carrier. Allows us to go out of the house for multiple feeds while still bringing the pump.
Bottles - Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow - https://amzn.to/3JNMfBi
These bottles have helped tremendously with her Colic. They are easy to use, easy to clean, and all in all, help out.
Bottle Warmer - Baby Brezza Safe & Smart Electric Baby Bottle Warmer - https://amzn.to/3D5DaAc
Might be the best purchase we never thought we would make. My wife has done an amazing job with our home and making it aesthetically pleasing, so we delayed buying this until we had to. If you are to bottle feed, please think about getting this warmer.
Sterilizer - Baby Brezza Baby Bottle Sterilizer and Dryer - https://amzn.to/44BWUXw
A must have if you don't want to constantly be doing dishes. We go through 8 bottles a day and multiple pump attachments, so it is a lot of cleaning.
Changing Pad - Keekaroo Peanut Changer Vanilla - https://amzn.to/44T5EsP
So easy to use, and easy to clean. Already so many accidents have happened while changing and being able to wipe down with ease is a huge win.
Diaper Trash - Ubbi Steel Odor Locking - https://amzn.to/44dWHKz
Can't say enough good things about this. The odor locking door is amazing and we don't smell anything in the nursery
Wipe Dispenser - OXO Tot Perfect Pull Wipes Dispenser - https://amzn.to/3D5uXvI
Such a plus to have, easy to use, and a lifesaver when you only have one hand.
Comfort Animals - Intelex Warmies - https://amzn.to/44fZ6o4
These are so cute, and cuddly. They have served more as decoration for now, but will be used soon.
