On The Go Items!
These items help make traveling with a little one easier and offer more convenience and comfort.
I personally bought these doggy bags instead of baby specific ones. They do the exact same thing and are a lot cheaper! I use them all the time for diapers, messy clothes, and any other trash we may have.
Amazon Basics Dog Poop Bags 900 Count Leakproof
We love taking walks with the stroller but sometimes the heat is a little intense. This stroller fan has great flexibility and power! It has three speeds and works great at cooling baby down! We have even used it for ourselves at times, and the amoun...
AMACOOL Battery Operated Stroller Fan Clip
This cup hold is extremely versatile! You can adjust it to fit any stroller and tilt the cup in order for it to stay straight. My stroller didn’t come with any storage, so this really helps free up my hands, and helps me stay hydrated. It also has a ...
Accmor Stroller & Bike Cup Holder with Phone
I LOVE this portable warmer! It’s heavy duty, leak proof and fast at heating. It’s also beneficial whether you are breast feeding or formula feeding. It is adjustable based on the temperature your baby likes their milk, and maintains temperature so t...
Lxlu Portable 17oz Baby Bottle Warmer
Lifesaving Items
These are items that are great to have in case of an emergency.
I bought this kit right away! You always hope you won’t need it, but it’s extremely helpful when you do! It comes with all the basic medicines your little one may need if they’re not feeling well.
Little Remedies New Baby Essentials Kit
I was SO skeptical about these at first and was terrified at the idea of using them. When your baby is screaming from pain and can’t quite pass gas on their own, you will try just about anything, and these are a LIFESAVER. If used correctly, it is ve...
Frida Baby Windi Gas Passer, Colic Relief
We love these drops for teething! They help with discomfort and pain. We prefer these to pumping her full of Tylenol and ibuprofen.
Boiron Camilia Teething Drops for Pain Relief
This is a more expensive item, but extremely worth it if you can splurge. I had no idea how bad my postpartum anxiety was going to be. I already got little sleep as it was, and I can’t imagine how much less I would be getting if it wasn’t for this so...
Dream Sock® – Owlet US
Hygiene Products
These are products to help keep baby clean and comfortable.
I’m not sure if it’s nostalgia, or just the fact that it smells so good, but Johnson has always been my favorite baby shampoo and body wash! I obviously try the best I can to prevent it from happening, but my little one genuinely doesn’t cry if it ac...
Baby Shampoo
This diaper rash cream works great for my baby girl. It clears up her bottom and protects it better than Destitin, which is more expensive.
A+D Original Diaper Rash Ointment - Protects & Heals
Love, love, LOVE these diapers. They are so soft and absorbent and we rarely have any blowouts with them. We have used pampers swaddlers, Huggies, cuties, and none of them compare.
Millie Moon
We love the quality of these wipes. They aren’t watery and don’t tear apart easily like others. They’re also significantly cheaper than other brands.

My baby girl struggled with holding onto gaudy pacifiers. She would accidentally drop it and cry much more often at night. These were a lifesaver. They are lightweight and especially newborn friendly. She almost never drops it, unless she’s spitting ...
Ultra-light silicone pacifier
There were so many times my baby would be restless and fighting sleep. A noise machine was a must have for us. It would instantly make her relax and help her to fall asleep. We use it every night.
