Isabel turns one month old tomorrow - yeah! For her first month, here are the top 10 most useful baby products1. Boppy breast feeding pillow (see photo) - use it about 10-12 times a day (really saving my arms).
2. Of course, Diapers and wipes - She goes through 12-15 a day
3. Her wonderful crib and mattress - she sleeps in it every night and sometime plays in it during the day
4. Halo swaddle blankets - we try to learn how to swaddle with a regular square blanket, but this is so much easier even if it's $20 per blanket.
5. White long sleeve shirts with covers for her hands - Isabel wear this almost every day. We love the ones with buttons instead of the ones that have to be pulled over her head. The hand cover is a must since babies are prone to scratch their faces if their hands are not covered.
6. Baby Monitor - we have two receivers with rechargable batteries, so we always have one fully charged. We use this everyday.
7. Receiving blankets - we are using the receiving blankets for everything: to cover her, to cover the boppy pillow when feeding, to prop her in the right position for feeding.
8. Wash cloths : for wiping her face, for her sponge baths, for drying her bootie after wipes. We have two kinds (one for her upper body, one for her lower body)
9. Bouncer: so she can sit with us in the living room and play a little.
10. Car seat - Isabel loves sleeping in it after a drive.
