I’m glad you starting to come back with these products reviews there isn’t enough of them

New mom here and I will also share my experience.
1. Sound machine is nice to have but not really needed.
2. Great to have but you won’t need for quite a few weeks.
3. Baby nail file works great as well.
4. Aquaphor is amazing for diaper rashes. Keep your little one’s diapers dry and a quality diaper to really help prevent the need for diaper rash treatment.
5. Nose Frida may not work depending on your baby’s size. It was too big for my little one’s nose. Pediatrician suggested waiting until 6 months for the Frida version.
6. Highly recommend!
7. I prefer the plastic tubs that go in the kitchen sink. It’s easier on your back and quicker to get baby out.
8. Get the ones with a bassinet and diaper changing station. It’s only a bit more money, but you will get great usage out of it.
9. Socks drive me crazy. Will definitely try these out!
10. This is a great idea! My little one didn’t like Philips so we had to switch to Dr. Browns.

I always recommend an electric nail file to new moms/parents. Also for anyone weirded out about the nose frida there is an electric one

That exact nail trimmer is everything. Better than going lazy/timid route of mittens which inhibit developmental progress by decreasing tactile abilities. Also those Avent (Natural) bottles are the way to go, just line up the anti colic vent in the nipple to the indentation in the collar for perfect air pressure relief to decrease issues of colic. The texture and density of the natural line of Avent nipple/bottles with their varying flow rates are the best options on the market for bottle feeding. The MAM bottles with the silicone bottom valve are probably the best anti colic pressure design but cleaning up the various pieces are a hassle and not a viable option with a demanding baby that needs their feeding immediately after waking.

The babylist bottle sampler is a superb try. Dr Brown was wastefully all in, then found out the Avent system with the varying nipple flow became the true go to (and Spectra pump flange friendly)

These and your family vlogs are my favorite videos!

We just had our little girl two weeks ago. We have a few of these items and I’m 100% behind the nose Frida especially, they also have a weak saline solution that helps if there are crusty bits. I WISH we had the bottle box in the U.K. My husband and I are in a battle of Comotomo v Mam, lucky baby takes both but her parents are more picky😅

[virginiascheel]

So happy you recommended those squid socks! We went to the zoo yesterday and our little girl kept taking hers off! I just purchased them and I can’t wait to put them on her

[ryanwhite]

Man...I wish I knew about some of these products when my toddler was a newborn. I always find new and interesting things on your channel. Very informative content as always.

[David-goot]

i love that you emphasize more affordable products instead of these ridiculous IG reels that talk about their newborn "must haves" where they mention a $2000 bassinet.

[haladakhal]

Thank you so much! I’m prepared stuff for my first baby and your video is so helpful

[blcantrell]

This is really is an essentials list! I'd also add the Hakaa if you plan to offer breastmilk and a Topponcino knock-off.

[zamaemartinez]

First, I didn't like the idea of having an electric nail trimmer and go through the nail clipper I accidentally clipped my son's finger 😢 today, I'm gonna buy that and some of the essentials from this video! Thanks!

Watchung from Philippines!

Not under 50, but I would say if you you can spend 50 more on a stroller that has a bassinet option, go for it! My kid is just shy of 2 weeks old and the Graco Modes Nest has been awesome! We have a cushion for him to sleep on the couch when in the living room, but instead I was trying out the bassinet option. Ended up putting him in there to go around the house while he sleeps when we do dishes, laundry and all that. Yes, we have a video baby monitor and a halo bassinet in the bedroom. But it's just nice to have an option where we don't need to pick him up and put him down or walk across the house to put him down. I'm super happy with that investment.

[kristinotto]

Definitely have to try that diaper cream spray! The honest cream is my favorite and a spray version sounds awesome

[MrTyates]

Thanks for all the great videos - they've all been super helpful as an upcoming first time dad. Had a hard time finding the Joovy Playard for that price and I think that's the version for dolls actually! Thanks again for everything!

[gianreyes]

Totally gonna get that nail device lol finally I can be brave to trim nails 😅

[christianterrill]

The hospital sent u home with a baby tub?!?! They gave us some socks and the cloths from the hospital that's it lol.

[morgan]

Sorry if this is a stupid question but do you know of resources for moms? I love that you promote resources for new dads but I am struggling to find resources for myself. I definitely still look into the resources you recommend for dad's! Thanks for all that you do!

[autobot]

Could you do a review on the new dream sock and just highlight the differences in the app and alerting? I really can’t find much info on how they work now other than the websites description which is quite short and I’d love to actually be able to see it in use
