Baby Product Faves 0-3 Months

Now that we're almost 3 months into this wild ride of parenthood, and I thought I would share some of my favorite products.

 
  Boppy Pillow






I know everyone loves these, but honestly, they are the best. In the hospital, I relied on the Boppy to help with positioning Ethan correctly for feeding. It saved my arms from exhaustion and allowed me to hold and feed Ethan as much as he wanted. Now that we are closing in on month three, we use the Boppy for excellent tummy time and for propping up, and Ethan loves it. We have the doggie cover, shown above.


 Summer Infant Mother's Touch Deluxe Baby Bather



Ethan loves his baths, in no small part thanks to this great bather. The kind of infant baths that are made of solid plastic were just too hard for him, and he would cry the whole time. This bather is made of soft mesh, which cradles Ethan and is nice and soft. It adjusts, too, so we can sit it up more and more as he grows. It also collapses totally flat, which means we're able to take it with us when we travel overnight. It was also very reasonably priced, which is a great added bonus!


 Fisher-Price Rainforest Bouncer


 


 This is a total lifesaver. I can put Ethan in it when he is fussy and it helps calm him, since it has a vibrating massager in it. I can use it to sit Ethan in when I'm in the kitchen or in the bathroom getting ready, so he can be with me in the same room. It comes with an attachment that has a light-up waterfall and plays music. Normally I feel like it is too much stimuli, but we put it on for him maybe once a week or so.


 Fisher-Price My Little Snugabunny Swing




 As I type this, Ethan is napping in his swing! It is the perfect place for him to take a cat nap during the day. It plays soothing sounds, and it has a mirror at the top that he loves to look at. He smiles and laughs at his reflection in it, which I find hilarious!


 Dragon Wubbanub Pacifier





 Ethan prefers the Soothie brand pacifiers, and Wubbanubs are Soothie pacifiers with little stuffed animals attached. The weight of the stuffed animal helps keep the pacifier in Ethan's mouth, and if he spits it out, it never goes far. Now that he is able to grasp, he holds on to the dragon stuffed animal part either while he's sucking on the pacifier or just when he's in his car seat. He loves it! It helps soothe him when he is upset, and since the dragon is bright red, it is never hard to find around the house or in our diaper bag.
