1. Bright Starts Playful Pals bouncer: My boy loves this bouncer. It's so cute and colorful, it vibrates, and plays music. What more could a baby ask for? And it's only 25 bones.
2. Fisher Price diaper bag: Every man needs to save his pride when he takes the baby out and brings the diaper bag along. Here's the answer...it's like a manly diaper bag made by Fisher Price. It is awesome. (I even use it sometimes...!) It has a designated pocket for every baby item, a cold pack pocket that keeps bottles cold, it comes with a great changing pad, and it has a built in wipes dispenser. My husband LOVES this bag. You're welcome husbands.
3. Johnson's Hand & Face wipes: These are great for on the go to wipe anything...you can even wipe baby's eyes with them. They kill 95% of germs too. Great for wiping baby hands and face, pacifiers, your chest before breastfeeding...and they are so gentle for baby skin. Love them.
4. Aden & Anais swaddle blankets: The best swaddle blankets hands down. They are big which is perfect for swaddling and the material is lightweight muslin. They can be layered for colder temps. They get softer each time you wash them. And they are dang cute!
5. Medela manual breast pump: I've been using this on a daily basis to pump a few times here and there so my husband can feed my lil babe while I get some much needed rest, and little one can still have my breast milk. I've also used it to pump after nursing in order to increase my milk supply. It's such a great pump. It's a manual pump but super easy to use. Two thumbs up!
6. Mini Spooners: You may be laughing at this one, but it is seriously the breakfast/snack of champion mothers. It is so healthy. Just ONE CUP of this powerfood has 90% Iron, 100% Folic Acid, 5g protein, 6g fiber...need I say more? I eat it everyday and I am already back down to 112 pounds, only 3 pounds away from my pre-pregnancy weight. I give all the credit to this cereal. Seriously guys. Get yoself some.
7. Dr Smith's diaper ointment: I heard amazing things about this cream and had to try it out...turns out everything I heard was true. My lil guy started to get some redness on his bum, so I used this stuff every diaper change for a day and it cleared up right away! Dr. Smith knows his stuff.
8. My Brest Friend nursing pillow: Most moms seem to buy the boppy pillow, but I heard the "brest friend" was better for breastfeeding. I agree, this pillow is awesome. Horrible name, but is perfect if you want both hands free while your little one nurses. It's very comfortable for mom and baby, has a water bottle holder, and straps around your waist.
9. Wubbanub Pacifier: My baby boy is addicted to pacifiers. Unfortunately, he hasn't learned to keep them in yet, so they are always falling out, and he kinda freaks when they do. Enter the Wubbanub pacifier. It has a cute animal attached to better hold the pacifier in.
10. Fisher Price Rainforest open top cradle swing: I have an older version of this swing but I LOVE it, and baby boy LOVES it. Sometimes it's the only thing that puts him to sleep. It has a cute bright mobile that hangs down from the top, which my boy loves to stare at. It has 6 different speed settings, relaxing music AND sounds, and it's half the price of those fancy schmancy mammaroos. Boom. I'm sold.
So there you have it! My 10 favorite mom/baby products. Hope this was helpful!
Yours truly,
Kai's momma
