Daddy Diaper Bag

Fisher-Price Daddy Diaper Bag  Fisher-Price Fastfinder Deluxe Fashion Diaper Tote, Brown Nylon.  It was brought to my attention that “daddy” did not want a flowered diaper bag, nor a diaper bag that looks like a purse.

You can’t go wrong with the Munchkin Arm and Hammer Diaper Bag Dispenser Munchkin Arm and Hammer Diaper Bag Dispenser or with the Playtex Diaper Genie On-The-Go Dispenser Playtex Diaper Genie On The Go Dispenser for your baby’s stinky diapers.


Wipes
My personal favorite for my newborn was the Target Brand that are unscented (the Target brand stays nice and moist and is sensitive enough for a newborn’s sensitive skin)

I like using cute baskets with colored liners. If you insist on buying neon-colored storage bins, check out Target’s “dollar aisle” – they have neon colored bins that are great (for $3 each).

Magic Seahorse

The Fisher-Price Soothe and Glow Seahorse Baby Soother has calmed my fussy baby down so many times that I lost track.  Even I start to become calm and sleepy when this thing plays it’s enchanting music and glows so subtly in the dark.  Love this thing.

Swaddle Wraps and Sleep Sacks
Links:  Summer Infant SwaddleMe and HALO Sleepsack

Swaddle Blankets by Summer Infant SwaddleMe and Sleep Sacks by HALO Sleepsack are both must-have items.  When you are done swaddling you baby (which happens when your baby can roll over on her own), then you move to the Halo Sleep Sacks.





Aden and Anais Muslin Wraps (Blankets)
Link:  aden + anais Muslin Wraps

The aden + anais Muslin Wraps are great blankets for the summer (great stroller blankets).  They are rather pricey compared to other swaddle blankets, but they are big and stretchy, which comes in handy as your baby grows.

Summer Infant Baby Touch Video Monitor Summer Infant Baby Touch Digital Color Video Monitor.  Get one with a “mute” button!  The Motorola brand may be less expensive, but there isn’t a “mute” button for when you don’t need to hear your baby, but would like to be able to see them.

Wonder Bumpers

Go Mama Go designs Wonder Bumpers – (Go Mama Go designs Wonder Bumpers) make a great compromise for those who do not feel comfortable using the traditional bumpers.

I absolutely love this thing (see my post How the Nosefrida Changed by Boogie Little Life for more information and a video about how great this thing is for babies).

If you’re breast feeding in the wintertime or if you don’t get access to a lot of sunlight (sunlight provides Vitamin D), then ask your doctor if you need to give your baby a vitamin D supplement.

I must warn you – clipping your child’s nails is terrifying.

Baby Tooth Brush and Toothpaste
Link: NUK Infant Tooth and Gum Cleanser 

This isn’t really relevant until your baby has teeth, but I like the NUK Infant Tooth and Gum Cleanser simply because my baby likes the taste and is willing to brush her teeth with this toothpaste.  We tried other brands and didn’t have great luck.

Babies love light up bath toys and this Froggy Bath Toy (VTech Pour and Float Froggy Electronic Bath Toy)  is the greatest bath toy every invented (for when baby can sit in an actual grown-up tub for bath time).  It’s super fun! It squirts up water and sings!
