Our Favorite Newborn Products
It's so crazy to think our little guy is almost 3 months old! Now that we have settled into our routine, I wanted to share some my favorite newborn products that have made our lives a little easier.
Our Favorite Newborn Products | Bath Time
First on the list is this padded, kneeling bath mat for parents giving baths. It's padded at the top and at the bottom there's a little pocket for it. It has made bath times so much nicer and easier on our knees!
Another favorite for bath time is the Angel Care bathtub seat. We had a similar one for our daughter and have loved it! It cleans easy, reclines just enough and keeps baby happy for a long time.
Tubby Todd products are a HUGE favorite in our house. Their all over ointment is particuarly amazing. It clears up everything from rashes to baby acne to cradle cap, and just about everything in between. It's scentless, so great for that sensitive baby skin and just overall a miracle worker. We also love their shampoo, body wash, everyday lotion and diaper cream as well. I 10/10 recommend Tubby Todd products.
Our Favorite Newborn Products | Wearables
Next on the list is Magnetic Me jammies. I have to credit my sister-in-law for this find. She had these with one of her kids, and they are absolutely awesome. They are magnetic so they come apart and snap back so easily, which is a must during middle of the night changes. They’re so soft too!
The Gunamuna SleepSack is a must for our son’s solid sleep. It has four total zippers and unzips all the way around including the bottom. This is means we don’t have to un-swaddle baby during middle of the night diaper changes. It's also slightly weighted which is so soothing for our son.
I have been gifting Saranoni mini blankets as baby gifts for a long time now, and I finally get to use them myself! They're great for car seats, swings or loveys once baby gets older. They're so soft and the perfect size.
Our Favorite Newborn Products | Changing Time
This wipeable changing pad is amazing. It actually has stickers on the bottom so you can stick it to any dresser. It has straps to keep the baby safe and secure plus it wipes down easily. It also has this fun little mobile on it that keeps baby entertained for diaper changes.
We are constantly using the Baby Delight Snuggle Nest. It is SO amazing and versatile. It is a lounger with mesh sides so that baby doesn’t move around and also can be used as a portable changing pad. It folds up really small, which makes it ideal for taking it places with you, or keeping it tucked away and out of sight.
Our Favorite Newborn Products | Splurge Items
I don’t think I will ever stop talking about how much I love my Uppa Baby Vista stroller and the Mesa car seat that goes with it. It drives so smoothly, can accommodate up to 3 kids in a bunch of different configurations and is so pretty. We used it with our daughter (six years ago) and now are using it with baby brother and it has held up really, really well with no signs of slowing down. It is definitely worth the price tag!
We used the Mama Roo swing with our daughter, and she loved it. It has multiple settings that mimics car rides, bouncing etc. and is a life saver for calming a baby hands free. It has a speaker for music/sound hook up and is much more compact than a traditional swing. Our son loves it!
Last on the list is the Baby Brezza. This incredible invention is like a Keurig for formula. It holds enough formula for 20 bottles and has a container in the back for water that you just have to refill when the water runs out. You program it for your specific formula, how many ounces you want and which of the three temperature settings you want and it does the rest. You do have to clean the funnel in the bottom of it, every three to four bottles, but it's really not that big of a deal if you have a bottle scrubbing brush on hand. We LOVE this thing and can’t recommend it enough for bottle users. That wraps up the favorite things list! You can shop everything I mentioned below.
