Thoughtless Thursdays: What a New Mom Needs

TT button

I’ve compiled a list of all the recommendations I got from this post and summarized them here for any other future mom’s who may be interested!

Obviously this is not an all inclusive list of EVERYTHING you need for a new baby but I asked the Mom’s out there what is their #1 must-have item was so that’s what this list is.

The stars represent how many Mom’s recommended each item & they’re in order of highest recommended.

Those seem to be really good ideas. Have you looked into cloth diapering? It's getting pretty popular. My sister loves feeling the baby move with a little stuffed animal that plays music. They're going to put it in the crib to help their little girl sleep once she's here. (Blog award on my page. check it out.)

Umm, your list, for whatever reason, just plunged me into full-blown baby fever. Omgosh. And I'm not even engaged. But I will be 27 this year, so I'm sure that explains a lot. :)

Megan said...

The Barker's said...

We used this for my nephew:

A preemie baby girl I babysat also LOVED it.

Two other things I think are good to have- a Bumbo and this seahorse:

My nephew LOVED that when he was a baby, and it still soothes him now (he is almost 3).
