Welcome to our no-BS guide to newborn essentials. In this episode, we’re breaking down the baby gear we actually used and loved—and the things that made us question all our life choices.
From bottles and breast pumps to crib mattresses, swaddles, pacifiers, and yes…the infamous wipe warmer, we’re sharing what worked, what didn’t, and what you can skip entirely.
We cover:
Best baby bottles that saved us vs. the ones that drove us feral
The breast pumps that actually gave us freedom
Crib mattresses, swaddles, diaper bags, and more baby gear that’s worth it
Registry regrets, wipe warmer disasters, and why newborn baby shoes are a scam
Our takes on the Nanit baby monitor, BIBS pacifiers, Frida Mom nail clippers, and other viral newborn products
Real talk from two moms, four kids, and way too many Amazon orders.
If you’re pregnant, building a baby registry, or in the newborn trenches—this one’s for you.
🎧 Listen in for the ultimate baby registry must-haves vs newborn regrets.
