snuggle me organic lounger
This is a MUST HAVE. This was probably our most used item with our first daughter. Perfect for setting baby down in a cozy, soft place for when you need your hands free or want to play with baby. Plus it’s a Minnesota company, so I love supporting local! They offer lots of cute colors & covers for them as well, for easy washing.

preemie & newborn sized gowns
These are great for dressing baby during those newborn scrunchy days & easy access for diaper changes. TIP: When dressing, slide the gown on from baby’s feet instead of over their head!

bamboo swaddle blanket
I had one of these with our first & used it sooo much, both for swaddling as well as for a nursing cover when out & about! It’s really large & stretchy so swaddling is easy & like I said, makes a great nursing cover because it covers your whole upper body as well. I just ordered another one so that we have one for the diaper bag & one for at home.

play gym
We are big fans of all things Lovevery! The play gym is perfect for tummy time. There are different toys & add ons designed to stimulate babies’ brains depending on their developmental stage. The textures, colors & sounds are all engaging ways to play with baby for the first year.
baby bouncer
We used this a lot to put our first daughter in when we were eating dinner. It was perfect for when 2 hands were needed or when babywearing wasn’t a great option. You can use your foot to soothe them with little bounces while eating or working. And, it’s fun to watch them learn how to bounce themselves as they get older!
changing mats
We have a few of these & love how easy these wipe clean & how portable they are - they fold up really small. We keep one in several rooms of the house for easy access for diaper changes. Plus, they come in lots of cute coors & patterns!
GATHRE – Micro Diaper Changing Mat
baby supplies caddy + cart
Having a few options to easily transport all the nursing & baby supplies around the house was clutch with our first! I stocked them with things like diapers, wipes, changing mat, diaper cream, pump parts, burp cloths, changes of abby clothes, nursing snacks, etc! Here’s what we used to make diaper changes & nursing easy peasy no matter where we were in the house:
