Top 10 Must-Have Baby Items

If you are reading this you are likely expecting a baby or you know someone who is and it can be overwhelming to navigate the world of baby products. The aisles of Target and the internet will tell you that there are approximately 1 million items you need as a first time mom. As a mom of an 8 month old baby, I want to share my top 10 items you need to add to your registry as a first-time mom. In this post, I break down the top 10 must-have items that new moms actually use on a daily basis. Say goodbye to clutter and hello to practicality!

Nanit Camera

This wifi camera literally has it all and helps keep your new mom anxiety at ease. You can check in on baby from anywhere, see sleep activity such as sleep efficiency, breaths per minute, track babies height, temperature and humidity of the room and get any movement or sound notification right to your phone. It’s the smartest smart camera monitor and nothing else compares.

Coterie Diapers

They are the creme de la creme of diapers and have the awards to back it up. Not only do they hold an insane amount of liquid (which means less diaper changes and longer stretches of sleep) but they are so insanely soft that you wont need diaper cream, ever. They ship right to your doorstep every month so you wont have any late diaper runs. You will never look at those “other brands” the same again.

Burp Cloths

These baby wash cloths are super absorbent and their 10×10 shape makes them the perfect burp cloth! If you have a baby with reflux you will love that it comes in a pack of 16, because you can never have to many!

Bottle Sterilizer and Dryer

Hauture 6-1 Bottle Sterilizer and Dryer is literally the best one you can get. Not only does it sanitize but it drys which is important. Trust me, don’t get any other one!

Baby Bjorn Carrier

Baby Bjorn Harmony is hands down the best carrier there is. I used the “mini” when my daughter was a newborn but she quickly outgrew it and we upgraded to the Harmony and I still use it weekly! Holds up to 40lbs and has amazing lower back support you can’t even tell you’re wearing your little one!

Stroller Fan

A stroller fan is a must for hot summer days whether you’re going on an afternoon stroll or hanging at the beach.

Fruit Feeder

Baby food and fruit feeder are not only perfect for eating on the go, but they are a MUST for teething! Use frozen fruit, frozen yogurt or frozen breastmilk or formula and make icepops!

Kick and Play

This Fisher Price Kick and Play is great for not only newborns, but it also grows with your child. My daughter loved this as a newborn and now is 8 months old and plays with it every day still!

Car Monitor

This camera monitor for the car gives new moms peace of mind whether your little one is crying or sleeping soundly you will appreciate knowing exactly what they are up to.

Wooden Playpen

A wooden indoor kids play fence aka “baby jail” will ensure your baby is safe while you quick go to the bathroom or grab some more coffee. It also keeps the baby toys in a contained area which is a huge plus. The wood detail gives it a minimal feel and can match any style decor!

I hope this list brings you some clarity on some items before your new baby arrives. For more content on real life motherhood, follow me on Instagram @emmanacewicz
