must have newborn items

Last year I had my very first baby and when you’re a first time mom, there’s a lot of trial and error involved. You rely mostly on recommendations from friends, family and the occasional blog post you stumble upon on Pinterest (like this one LOL).

There’s things you know you will need when having a baby like a newborn carseat, crib, diapers, onesies, etc. But what about the random items you forget about in the craziness of getting ready for a tiny human being to enter your life?

We tried a lot of different bottles, diapers, swaddles, etc. before finding what we liked. I feel like my Amazon Prime order history for the first few months was a lot of 3am desperation orders for whatever google recommended might make my life easier.
