After a long but lovely nine-month journey, we are so blessed and excited to have our new baby girl, Navy Rose, with us! This is our third child and latest newborn. Having a newborn and welcoming them home is a whirlwind experience filled with all the emotions up and down. Do I have everything I need? Do I have enough of everything? What do I need? These questions and more will come about, and I might not be able to answer them all, but sharing Our Newborn Favorites: Top 10, a list of what we consider our favorite and essential baby needs, will help! These items are go-to’s and daily must-haves; I highly recommend them for anyone bringing home their beloved newborn. Now, let’s get into it!
TOP 10 Newborn Faves
- Besides Bassinet: This is a newborn must-have that is not only for the baby but also for you. Having them closer to you is a game changer for the middle of the night feeds, changes, and soothings.
- Mother Love Nipple Cream: Trust me on this one! I have talked about it many times, but for any mom’s breast, this cream team will not only bring you relief but enhance your breastfeeding experience.
- Halo Sleep Sack: A sound sleep sack will be a useful and invaluable tool for ensuring a newborn’s safety, warmth, and comfort during sleep. Sleep sacks provide a secure sleeping environment that can be difficult to achieve with just blankets.
- Hatch Portable Sound Machine: I LOVE having a portable sound machine option, as it allows you to create a soothing and consistent sleep environment. Whether you’re just bringing it from room to room in your home or outings, it’s small and easy to have.
- Baby Nail File: A small yet essential tool for the challenging task of trimming your baby’s nails. This gives you a safe and gentle solution, taking one of the things off your plate, which, as a new parent, is a need.
- Pocket Nanny: This unique item makes a world of difference for us. Being able to track and remember the important baby details can be hard when you’re tired and just busy being a parent. This tool helps set reminders for feeding, changing, napping, and more!
- The Bobby Pillow: Another breastfeeding must; you need to have a supportive and comfortable nursing pillow; it will help make your life easier and is also excellent for support for others when holding your newborn for the first time! My favorite is this Bobby one, but I also like the My Breast Friend one!
- Hello Baby: I have shared this item before, but a baby monitor is nonnegotiable for monitoring and ensuring a secure and loving atmosphere!
- Swaddle Blankets: Not only is a swaddle blanket a necessity, but multiple are. You will use them throughout the day every day; my favorite has been the Kyte Baby ones lately!
- Night Light Egg: This is one of our favorite items because it allows for a gentle and reassuring ambiance during nighttime care and sleep for both our newborn and us. This one has eight colors, dimming functions, timer settings + and touch control.
Finding the right products for your newborn can be a joyful yet overwhelming experience as a parent. Our Newborn Favorites: Top 10 can guide you and help simplify the journey, offering comfort, convenience, and safety for parents and their newest loved one. Whether you’re a first-time parent or adding to your growing family, these essentials will surely enhance the early days of parenthood!
