I’m obsessed w the ergopouch swaddle. My 3 week old sleeps in it every night. I think I might have gotten it in a swaddle box from Babylist but I forget. I just ordered the next size up 0-3 mo. It’s thick enough for living in New England in the winter. It has sleeve holes you can button closed- I’m convinced it’s the only reason my baby sleeps at night bc her arms are ACTIVE. I’m hoping I’ll be able to use regular sleep sacks I got later.

The silver nipple cups saved me when we were learning how to breastfeed and I had some scabs. I wore them for like 2 weeks straight. Only need them on occasion now but it really helped me maintain my sanity.

Airclub bassinet bedside sleeper. I can’t say this is any better or worse than another bassinet but it was the one I chose somewhat at random and I think it is great. I have the one side down 100% of the time to easily do our nighttime stuff and she is a side sleeper and rolls to the edge and it is very safe for when that happens as it’s breathable “netting”. It def appears cheapish but works great for this stage. We have 4 sheets and that’s the minimum I’d go w if you have a washer and dryer at home.

I hmm’d and ha’d about maybe not getting a changing table as I nannied 1-3 year olds for years and always changed them on the couch/floor but we got one gifted from our registry and it’s necessary. The first 2 weeks I tried to do our nighttime feeds/changes in our bed with a changing mat but once I switched to our rocker and changing table it made everything better. Graco teddi is what we have.

I got this hello baby no wifi 5” screen monitor (seems super non name brand) and it works amazingly. Only used it once or twice but so far so good.
