Crew just turned six months recently! I have loved every second of being with him and seeing how he completes our family. Gosh, I love being a mama! The past six months have been SO much better with all the baby gear I got beforehand. My mom life has been so much better from using these best baby products every mom needs!
Since Crew is my fourth baby (you can read about Crew’s birth story here), I’ve had my fair share in trying baby products. I’ve tried lots of different brands and types of products, so this list is truly all my favorites combined together. I hope you find some of your best baby products every mom needs too!
Best Baby Products Every Mom Needs
1. Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes
This Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes is a perfect toy for a car ride! And to play with at home, of course. It has a fun handle for your baby to hold and an easy button for them to press that plays music and lights up. It gives your baby that stimulation he loves!
2. Maty’s Baby Diaper Rash Relief
There are several diaper rash creams to choose from, but I love the Maty’s Baby Diaper Rash Relief because it uses all natural ingredients and oils that are safe for the baby’s skin. When a baby is so small and pure, I want to make sure I can keep it that way for as long as I can and this diaper rash cream gives me that!
3. Maty’s All Natural Multipurpose Baby Ointment
This All Natural Multipurpose Baby Ointment is another one of my favorite Maty’s products. It has so many uses! It soothes dry skin, cradle cap, chapped lips–you name it. And of course, it has all the natural ingredients safe for baby’s skin. I’ve tried a lot of different brands throughout all my kids and this one is truly the best.
4. Baby Natural Sweetgrass Baby Mosses Basket
Don’t you love the look of this Baby Natural Sweetgrass Basket? Crew was lying in this basket for his five month picture I posted on my Instagram. It’s so cozy for the baby and matches the look I love! It takes a few weeks to have it shipped because it is handmade, so if you want one just be aware of that timeline! But just that fact that it’s handmade is worth the wait, don’t you agree?
5. Hatch Baby Rest Sound Machine
This Hatch Baby Rest Sound Machine is so much more than a sound machine! It includes a night light, a green light acting as a wake-up call and it can all be scheduled from your phone because it’s connected with bluetooth. It’s the coolest sound machine ever!
6. Fridababy Baby Nasal Aspirator
I used to be skeptical about the Fridababy Nasal Aspirator, but now I love it! It seems gross, I know, but if you watch the video of how it works it makes you feel better because it’s actually a cleaner option for you and your baby. And it works so well in giving your baby that clean nose to help them breathe!
7. Baby Banana Infant Teething Toothbrush
I think this Baby Banana Infant Teething Toothbrush is pretty trendy and I totally see why. It’s cute, easy for baby to hold onto, and it really soothes my teething baby! And it’s a bonus that it is dishwasher safe and can be stored in the freezer.
8. Fisher-Price Animal Activity Jumperoo
Crew has loved this Fisher-Price Animal Activity Jumperoo! He can do a full turn around with lights, colors, and sounds to give him that stimulation babies love. And, the seat cover is removable and machine washable! I love an easy clean up when messes happen–and we all know messes will happen with little ones.
9. Bumbo Multi Seat
Finding a good high chair/booster seat can be tricky, but this Bumbo Multi Seat is it. I love how they’ve upgraded this seat with a tray, that can be stored on the back of the seat when not in use, and with buckles that strap around any standard chair. It’s comfortable for the baby and an easy clean up for mom and dad!
10. Boon Grass Countertop Drying Rack
This Boon Grass Countertop Drying Rack is so great! It keeps things clean and air drys my baby dishes so well every time. Not to mention the cute design, don’t you love the little cactus? These little drying racks have really upgraded since having my first baby!
11. Owlet Smart Sock Baby Monitor
You know the feeling when your baby starts to sleep through the night and you keep waking up anyway because you’re worried he isn’t breathing? Yeah, that feeling doesn’t go away–even with your fourth!
This Owlet Smart Sock Baby Monitor gives me peace of mind even when my baby is quietly sleeping. It monitors the baby’s heart rate and oxygen levels throughout the night and notifies you if they are too high or too low. Isn’t that the best invention ever?
12. Vista V2 Stroller with Bassinet
There are SO many strollers out there and all of them look the same. How are you supposed to know which one is truly the best?? Well, I LOVE my Vista V2 Stroller with Bassinet because it looks super sleek and clean, and it also has a lot of features that parents want–like an adjustable handlebar and a huge basket to hold all the essentials. You can’t go wrong with this purchase.
13. SNOO Smart Sleeper Bassinet
This SNOO Smart Sleeper Bassinet is actually really amazing. Whenever your baby is crying, the smart sleeper detects it and automatically starts rocking your baby! It also has a built in sleep sack that swaddles your baby and secures him, so he’ll stay on his back the entire night, keeping that little one safe.
14. Freshly Picked Butterscotch Classic Diaper Bag
I love the look of this Freshly Picked butterscotch classic diaper bag. It’s super stylish and functional. It holds all my baby necessities and complements all my outfits. Out of all the diaper bags I’ve tried with my four kids, this one is my favorite!
15. Premium Solid Wood Milestone Age Blocks
These premium solid wood milestone age blocks would be a cute baby gift! They’re perfect because it’s gender neutral and it even features prime photos using them, giving you the best keepsakes for the beginning of your baby’s life.
16. Infant Seat – Baby Swing
This infant seat – baby swing is amazing. It mimics the same movements a parent would give to her baby and you can control the motions from your phone! How convenient is that? I love it!
17. Solly Baby Natural & Grey Stripe Wrap
This Solly Baby natural & grey stripe wrap could easily become your baby’s second home. You can snuggle your cute little hands free! This wrap keeps your baby super tight and snug next to you which your baby will love.
18. Solly Baby Grey Wrap
I love the color of this Solly Baby grey wrap. This wrap keeps your baby so snug and tight just like the grey and white striped one. It’s the perfect option when going to the grocery store and they want to be held because you still have both hands!
19. Infant Car Seat & Base
This infant car seat & base has exceeded all my expectations. It keeps Crew super cozy and I love how lightweight it is. I also like its feature for an extended shade and covers almost the entire car seat to protect from the sun and rain. This is probably one of my favorites of these best baby products every mom needs.
20. Zip-Up Compression Swaddle
This zip-up compression swaddle will help your baby sleep a long time, which is what all parents of newborns want, am I right? The compression helps your baby feel like they have your hand on his chest, which gives them that comfort that you are close by. Plus, it’s so easy to take on and off!
21. Baby Einstein Glow & Discover Light Bar
I love this Baby Einstein Glow & Discover Light Bar! Or, I guess I should say Crew loves it. Haha! It’s perfect for tummy time play and can be easily cleaned with a quick wipe down.
22. Happiest Baby Sleep 5-Second Swaddle
This baby sleep swaddle is SO soft and cozy! I wish there was one for my size! OK, not really, but you know what I mean. I love this swaddle because it zips from the top and bottom and grows with your baby. What I mean is, when your baby is ready to have his arms out, it adjusts to what your baby wants. I wish I had this for my older kids when they were babies!
Those are my favorite baby items! Having the best baby products every mom needs can seriously make your experience so much better with your little one. I hope you find these products helpful! Here’s to hoping for good night sleeps and everything in between.
