I thought I would share my 8 favorite baby must haves since Sutton is 8 months now!  She is my second babe so I should be an expert right? Wish I could say that was true. Everyday I feel like a first time parent because each child is so different, therefore I have had to forgo what worked with Harlow and now do things that work for Sutton. However, products I listed are universally amazing for all babes, I just want to share what I have used from newborn til now, this time around that have been game changers!

Dockatot is my first baby must have! I wrote my review here on the blog! I recommend for every babe to have one as soon as they are born! DockAtot’s are portable, comfy and can be used for safe tummy time too. Designed with ethical materials and breathable. Sutton loved hers she is now needing the Grand!

Lorena Canals is my second baby must have! My review is linked here. This is the rug I have for Sutton’s These rugs are perfect for your nursery! These rugs are made all natural and machine washable. Every nursery needs one of these and they come out with new styles and designs to fit any home!

Finn & Emma – Newborns have very sensitive skin and I feel having organic soft clothing is comforting to them without the harsh chemicals! Finn & Emma have been voted best baby products and clothes by Vogue magazine. I have a romper, footie, and bib from them! All matching print and love the buttery softness and the cute designs! Definitely getting more things like this perfect onesie for Father’s Day. Ollie World– This swaddle is perfection! It is soft,stretchy and comes in a variety of colors. I love the velcro because it keeps your baby swaddled while they sleep as well as give an individualized fit for all babies no matter their size! Also has a loop at the bottom to keep the bottom closed or easy open for diaper changes. This swaddle is one of a kind and keeps your newborn warm and snuggly. This swaddle is made with moisture-wicking fabric so it is breathable and lightweight material reduce overheating. Highly recommend this swaddle also makes a great baby shower gift. Milestone Baby – These cards are perfect for recording every first milestone! They have fun prints! I have these the Over the Moon print but I am really loving the Sophie giraffe ones too! The cards have a line to put the date and I am thinking of hole punching them and putting them on a ring for Sutton’s memory book! Great photo op too! Sutton loves to try and eat them while taking her picture.

Lumiere Baby– This handy shopping cart/ highchair cover is perfect to keep your baby entertained and germ free while shopping! It also folds into a clutch for easy portability! I chose the  chevron print option. I love the pocket that hangs behind the front seat in a shopping cart because it is a perfect spot to put my keys and snacks! There is a clear pocket in front for an iphone for kids to play while at the restaurant/grocery store. I am that mama who denies iphones/ipods/ipads from my kiddos until they are older so I use that front pocket to hold squishy goo that she can press around and keeps hands busy! It come is a canister like this and I just push it in the pocket! Sounds silly but it comes in handy.  There are straps  attached to cover to hold sippy cups and extra toys! This cover has it all and it the company is owned by a mama herself! I love supporting small companies.

Wildbird– I love carrying my babies! I am definitely doing it more than I did with my first just because when you have a toddler you need to be hands free more often than not! I have a spirited toddler to say the least so she has to sit in the cart when we grocery shop so that means I carry Sutton. When I play outside Harlow loves to run around with me so I use my Wildbird sling to foster bonding with Sutton while bonding with Harlow and being able to run and kick a ball with her. This sling has promoted lots of love and extra kisses between Sutton and I! Their new launch of slings for the spring/summer season has me giving all heart eyes! I love the new rose gold rings and I have the dusty rose sling color! It is a muted pink and so pretty! I recommend this sling for all new mamas as well as mamas of multiples!

Summer Infant Play yard– Playpen, play yard any way you say it you need one! It is a safe area for your child to play indoors and outdoors while you are able to get a few things done! We didn’t introduce the play pen idea early enough with Harlow so she hated it but grew to love it with consistency of being in there! She loved to watch Barney in there. Sutton loves it! We put it outside while we play or I use it if I have to shower! This play yard  has a canopy attachment to add on if you have the play yard outside in the sunshine! I haven’t purchased a canopy attachment yet but I am eyeing this full coverage one! Summer Infant has a variety of great products to make parenting a little easier. I have this little potty for Harlow from Summer Infant!

If you have a product that you love please share!
