One of the reasons I started this blog is because people were either asking me what do I use or I was telling them how much I loved a certain product. I have a couple of girlfriends that are preggers or just delivered so I want to make sure I post more about baby products.
These are my opions, no sponsors
Here are some of my Top Baby Must Haves!
Itzbeen Timer: I read so many great reviews on this product before having P. I don't know what I would have done with out it. Every time baby would eat I would hit the bottle button. Diaper changed... hit the button. So when you are delusional from only getting 30 mins of sleep for a week, you don't know how long its been since baby ate, when you pumped, or when you changed a diaper. This is a solution!
Snap and Go Stroller: This stroller is light and easy to use. This is great for traveling, you don't have to worry about the airline tearing up your big stroller.
Boppy Pillow: I never would have thought I would use this so much! Of course I used it breastfeeding. Peyton actually like to sleep propped up in and when she started siting up we used this.
Bumbo Chair: These are a little pricey but I think they are worth it. Once your baby has neck control this starts them to getting used to sitting up. Use it as a high chair for feedings. I recommend buying the tray also. You can stack toys on it for baby to play with. Warning: Once they start crawling its a wrap for the chair. Peyton gets in and out of the chair. Try Craigdlist or EBay to get one for a reasonable price.
Bouncer: We still use this even though her legs are almost touching the floor. This is the only thing P can't get out of. Don't break the bank on bouncer, they all serve the same purpose. At first I really wanted that space ship looking one at BRU with the arm that would move baby in different directions.
What are some of your baby must haves and why??? I would like to put together a big list that can help new moms with info from REAL moms : )
**** Sorry for my lack of comments on your blogs, something is up with Google not letting me leave comments (HATERS)! I have been reading!!!
I never had the timer but what a great idea!! I remember waking up for my third time during the night and be so confused and disoriented and having no idea the last time Scarlett ate
ReplyDeleteThanks! All great items that I know I need!!!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention I used the timer when I pumped so I know how long its been!
ReplyDeleteIt's so interesting to see all the new products that are out since I had my son. I like the timer, it definitely would have helped me!
ReplyDeleteOh!!! I am so happy you did this post!!!!!!! Ok, I need the timer!!! Genius!!!! Must have!!!
ReplyDeleteYES!!! Please put together a post on baby must-haves!!!! I am trying to figure out what I still need!!! This mama-to-be would be sooooo appreciative!!!!!!
Well as a Real Mom ;) I loved my bottle sanitizer that you put in the microwave & the drying rack that folds up after use. I bought the target brands. I also loved the target brand breast wipes to clean yourself before & after breastfeeding (put them right next to my bed). And last Aubree loved her saucer/bouncer, she would sit & spin playing w/ her toys long enough for me to get things done! It keeps the babes busy!!!!
ReplyDeleteI never head the timer and instead of that pillow I used My Brest Friend. In fact, I'm letting a friend borrow my breastfeeding pillow just in case I have another baby. It would take me awhile to ever sell it.
ReplyDeleteLove these ideas. I'm taking note for when it's my turn. Love that timer. Definitely seems like a must must have.
