Essentials

What were your most used baby items you brought and couldn’t live without. Looking for ideas as I don’t want to buy things and not use them

If choosing to bottle feed a flask x

Ergobaby bouncer which I wish we had bought sooner. I can leave baby in a safe place whilst I pop to the bathroom and she loves to bounce in it too. We also have their baby carrier which I use more than a pram.

Baby bouncer White noise ( I was against this before the baby came haha) Sleeping bag If formula fed, a formula prep machine

I forgot to add. Not an item but you can get the Huckleberry app for free. So helpful with logging baby’s feeds, sleep, nappy changes etc.

Nursing pillow! Saves your back so much from leaning over

Tommee Tippee grobags. You can get them cheaper on Vinted but you can use them from a lighter weight. I had loads of sleep bags but didn't realise until I had a 7lb baby that I couldn't use any other than the Tommee Tippee bags until she was 8lb13 which it's taken her a little while to reach! We had a maxi Cosi swinging chair bought for us for Christmas which is an absolute godsend, over and above her bouncer. Again. FB Marketplace because brand new they're like 150 quid.
