When I had my first two girls, I bought everything I “thought” I needed. And honestly, half, if not more was not even used! I literally wasted tons of money for things that literally just made no sense owning for them.
Now with my third daughter, I only bought the basics before her birth. I then slowly played it by ear as to what I needed and wanted for her that would be useful and used. I had already gone through trial and error with the first two that my third I took it easy.
I even had family members asking what I wanted for my latest baby, mentioned ideas they had… I said thanks, but no thanks. I honestly didn’t need much. Especially not in the beginning. Even just the first year of life.
Therefore, I’ve compiled a list of my top favorite baby products that I have used time and time again. Not once and then “sayonara!” These are items I used all the time and recommend them to any new mom, or second or third time mom to look into if they didn’t already own them before.

My Top Favorite Baby Products
Twelve Little Diaper Bag
I actually got this diaper bag as a gift when I worked for a mother / parenting website to test out and let me tell you, it’s one of my favorites! With so many pockets and the soft fabric, yet with a good amount of stiffness to it, you’ll love it too!
This style also comes in other colors and prints. I have the denim and love it because it’s gender neutral. This is a diaper brand you must check out!

Kyte Baby Sleep Sack
I always used blankets with my babies, but didn’t realize how dangerous it was until I had my third baby!
The Kyte Baby sleep sack is so smart as you put it on your baby and they sleep in it. It keeps them warm just like a blanket would. Plus, the fabric is so soft that babies will love it!

Bella B Naturals Bee Gone Cradle Cap Baby Shampoo
This is a MUST!
One day when my baby was around a month old, I saw her scalp started to look gross – cradle cap! I searched for natural ways to treat it and stumbled across this shampoo.
Let’s just say, once I started using it, the start of the cradle cap INSTANTLY went away and never returned!

Baby Bum Shampoo and Wash
I have used many baby washes since having kids. As much as I LOVE anything baby related with a lavender scent, this Baby Bum Shampoo and Wash works well for the babe.
Plus it pumps out as a foam, so it’s easier to lather on the little one!

Baby Bum Monoi Coconut Balm
This is so multi-purpose!
I have used this for multiple things on my baby like dry skin, eczema and to treat a diaper rash. I absolutely love this and is a favorite of mine. This should definitely be a product all moms have for their baby!

Babo Botanicals Calming Lotion
This is the only baby lotion that didn’t cause a reaction on my baby.
I tried another brand, but it caused her to break out in a minor red rash that looked like little spots. This never caused that, plus, it is so gentle on their skin and smells so good! They also have their own line of baby products like shampoo, wash, diaper rash creams, etc if you want to try it!

Sophie the Giraffe
Sophie the Giraffe is so popular! But the price isn’t LOL!
I didn’t have Sophie the Giraffe with my older 2 kids, but decided to grab her for my third. It’s such a cute teething toy and honestly, it never gets old!

Parker Baby Bandana Drool Bibs
The Parker Baby Bandana Drool Bibs are by far my favorite and the only ones that did the job.
Whether drooling or eating, these kept her dry and clean. Plus, I love the soft fabric it’s made of and the cute colors and designs!

Moccasins
I never had moccasins with my first 2 kids. I don’t think they were popular yet
Baby number 3 lives in them and we LOVE these ones we found, and for cheap! The quality is amazing and they last. Plus, sizing is pretty right. Other fancy expensive brands run TOO BIG.

Baby Brezza Food Maker
This is the holy grail of baby making food!
If you’re not one to buy store bought baby food and want to make it yourself, this machine is the ONE for you!
All you have to do is chop up whatever fruit, veggie, protein, etc. you want and put it in the blender. Once you set it accordingly, it will steam it AND blend it for you! Baby food is made in 20 minutes or less!

ANGELBLISS Baby Feeder Pacifier
This is such a cute idea and I found this brand on Amazon and honestly, they’re great quality and worth it!
All you have to do is chop up some yummy fruit, put it inside and let the baby suck and chew on it. They get all the yummy stuff without the choke-able pieces when they’re still not chewing food.

The Skip Hop Baby Activity Center is worth every penny!
Not only is it a bouncer, but it’s turns into an activity table and then you can buy chairs from Skip shop and it becomes a table they can eat at, color on, etc. How smart?!
