My favorite postpartum purchases

I had not planned on buying any of these, but very quickly bought them within the first two days of being home from the hospital (except for the swing, which was a gift from my MIL) and I absolutely recommend them to any new moms

What items did you not expect/plan to buy that you now can't imagine doing postpartum life without?
