0-3m baby must haves! ✨

from a first time mom I have learned SO much having my sweet baby girl finally with me!

there’s things that I’ve tried that I liked, things that I don’t think I would’ve survived without, and things I definitely wasn’t the biggest fan of.

but I wanted to share a few of the items that I truly ADORED and helped me & baby so much. as I was new to being a momma, and her being new to the world 🫶🏼

... Read moreAs a first-time mom, the overwhelming choice of baby products can be daunting. Here are some crucial items that proved invaluable during the newborn phase, ensuring comfort for both baby and mom. 1. **Swaddle Up Baby Sleep Sack**: A standout product that allows babies to self-soothe while providing a comforting embrace. The unique hands-up design accommodates babies who prefer sleeping with their arms up, making it a gentle yet effective swaddling option. 2. **Philips Avent Soothie Pacifiers**: After trying numerous brands, these pacifiers became a lifesaver. Their design and orthodontic shape make them ideal for newborns, providing comfort and reducing fussiness, which is crucial for colicky babies. 3. **Graco DuetSoothe Swing and Rocker**: This versatile swing allows babies to sleep peacefully in a cozy environment, freeing up time for new parents. The detachable rocker feature is handy for moving around the house while keeping your baby close by. 4. **Little Remedies Gas Relief Drops**: Infants often experience gas discomfort, and these drops helped my baby immensely during colicky phases. They provide quick relief, enabling a happier, more relaxed baby. 5. **Dr. Brown's Gripe Belt**: This innovative heated belly band soothes colic and gas issues. Its gentle warmth is comforting and helps alleviate distress, giving both parent and baby peace of mind. These products not only eased challenges but also allowed us to enjoy precious bonding moments together!

Always talk to your baby’s pediatrician before giving them any medication and if you notice any fever or difficulty breathing. It’s better to be safe. If they have a fever I found it very helpful giving them a bath (not too cold). I like to have my son on a shirt and I keep him with lightweight
