Favorite Baby Items: First 6 Months
Ahhh, the first 6 months. Still don’t know how I feel about it. In fact, sometimes I still say, “what just happened?” Before Pippa, I told myself I would be a minimalist mom. Didn’t want too much clutter and wanted to be smart about saving space… but when you are in the thick of it, you want the good stuff. Products that are safe, work, and honestly just help you freaking out. I’m not secret keeper, so here are my top used baby items for the first 6 months (in no particular order).
Ollie Swaddle - a quality swaddle will save you for many nights. Comes in one size so you don’t have to constantly be buying more!
Doona Stroller - I was on the fence with this one because did we need a second stoller (we had been gifted the Uppa Baby Vista). But THIS carseat + stroller combo was a game changer in the early days. We are still using it to this day. It’s the ease of use that I love. Pop it in and out of the car, drop the wheels, and go.
Baby Brezza - Never knew I would love one item so much. I definitely didn’t think we needed this. We can mix our own formula. Why waste the money? No no. This is perfectly mixed, perfect temperature, which a click of a button. Efficiency and ease.
Frida Baby Snot Sucker - Never knew babies would be so snotty until I had one. This looks disgusting and something I would never do, yet fast forward a few weeks and that girls nose needed to be cleared out so I went sucking away. Works like a charm.
Tubby Todd All Over Ointment - A best seller for them and a best seller in my book. I used this when Pippa had baby acne and it cleared within a day or two.
