The holidays are rapidly approaching (must faster than I am ready for!) and I'm so excited because this year there is another little bambino to think about! Since I'm not a new mom, I definitely have some favorite baby must-haves. Whether you're a new mom or know of one, these are the products I can't live without!
This post is in partnership with Baby Cubby, a curated baby store that has everything you need for parenthood all in one spot. This team, made up of parents, finds the best and safest baby gear by spending hundreds of hours finding the best products out there so you don't have to. They price match, even with Amazon, and offer free shipping over $49. Check 'em out!
- 4Moms MamaRoo: This is on the top of our list to get for baby #2. Liam lived in his seat for the first year (even loved to sleep in it) but it was a hand-me-down and outdated and eventually gave out on us. If this new little one is anything like brother or mama, he will like to move and bounce A LOT and I know this will be perfect. I love that is designed to move like we do, batteries AREN'T required and you can control it from your smart phone.
- Bandana Bibs: For eating or drooling, bibs are a must! Liam went through several bibs (and outfits) a day due to drool. I love that these are super soft and absorbent and are much cuter than your average bib.
- Bumbo Floor Seat: Total lifesaver for a mama! Super durable and easy to transport. I loved taking this to the lake with us when Liam was a baby. Prevented him from getting too sandy and he loved sitting up and observing everything. Definite mom fav.
- Moccasins: Babies are notorious for kicking off shoes and losing them. I can't tell you how many shoes I've lost in the aisles of Target without realizing it. Lesson learned: stick to moccasins. They never fall off and are super comfy for your little one.
- Petunia Pickle Bottom Diaper Bag: You learn a lot about what you want/need after your first baby. I got this ginormous diaper bag when I had Liam. While it was great for carrying everything I could ever want in it, it was so annoying to carry around and it was so heavy! This time I'll be investing in a backpack so I'll be hands free. (If you aren't particular about a backpack, this Oemi diaper bag could also double as a purse. More bang for your buck. :)
- Swaddle Blankets: Bigger is better! Most babies love being swaddled the first few months. I quickly learned that not all blankets are created equal. Get extra large blankets so your baby doesn't wiggle out of them.
- ErgoBaby Carrier: Whichever your preferred sling or carrier, this is a total necessity. I could clean the house, do dishes, errands, all while Liam was sound asleep. With baby #2, I know I will rely on it more heavily.
- Little Kid Backpack: Because I will no longer have enough hands to carry a baby AND Liam's trinkets around.
That's it--my absolute favorite baby must-haves! If you have any questions, feel free to email me or comment below.
