When I heard I was having another boy, I felt like I hit the jackpot. I didn't have to go run out and buy everything new. So, I went into this second pregnancy thinking I had everything and needed nothing. For the most part that's true, but I compiled a list of my baby essentials. Some new and some true favorites I discovered with my first Grayson.
1. Nanit Baby Monitor It's a multi purpose monitor with a lot of additives. I was always forgetful how long Graysons naps were, so with the Nanit, it tells you when your baby was last attended and how many hours they slept. There's so much more to it, but if you're looking for a monitor that works hand in hand with your phone than this is it. It also has add ons like breathing monitoring and such so you never have to fear of SIDS.
2. Snuggle Me Lounger Pierson is one fidgety baby, so the fact that this snuggle me keeps him in place and secure is perfect. He's been sleeping in it since we brought him home and he loves it. We can place him anywhere around the house and it makes traveling with him easier. He also has been sleeping in his crib with his snuggle me since we brought him home (the crib is in our bedroom). He only wakes to feed, and he puts himself to sleep a lot of the time in his snuggle me.
3. Solly Baby Wrap I don't know what I do without this wrap. I use it just about everyday to get things done while Pierson is fussy. It's also great when you don't want to take your stroller into places like the park or a grocery run with your spouse.
4. Mebie Baby PajamasWhen it comes to late night diaper changes, you want the least complicated pajamas. You want a zipper or one sided snaps! I also love the simplicity of good quality solid colored pajamas.
5. Tubby Todd Regular Bundle I discovered Tubby Todd a year after Grayson was born and I wish I knew about it sooner. I've been using their products since Pierson was born and he hasn't had any skin dryness or cradle cap. It has a nice mild scent of Lavender & Rosemary that I love.
6. Puj Soft Bath Tub I love that this one in particular can work in any sink and isn't hard like the original. I had one of those big baby tubs and honestly bathing a baby in a sink is so much easier than in one of those separate tubs. Plus it's easy to store by hang drying it in the bathroom, just buy a hook!
7. Honest Bottom Spray I swear by this and have been using this since Grayson was born. It really helps with using less wipes and assures they're clean.
8. Bibs Pacifiers I wanted something completely different, so Grayson wouldn't think they were his or we wouldn't confuse them for Graysons. Pierson loves these pacifiers and they come in every color of the rainbow!
9 Fridababy Bath Brush This scrubber in combination with the Tubby Todd shampoo has assured no cradle cap for Pierson. Grayson had it really bad, and I'm glad I can prevent it from happening to Pierson.
10. Gathre Micro Mat This is such a great multipurpose mat. I use it on top of our changing pad and let me tell you it beats having to wash the cover every time you're cleaning up a blowout or a pee episode. You can use this either as a placemat for crafts, dinner or on the go as a changing pad. Can't rave about this brand enough!
Hope this post helps make easy buying decisions for your baby! Btw none of this is sponsored, I own and love these products.
