Diaper garbage. The one with the long plastic garbage bag.
Milk/bottle warmer. We have a simple one that we’ve been using for 3 yrs now. It has fancy/other setting but after a couple of months we use 1 setting for everything.
Don’t use the bottle sterilizer. Pot of boiling water on the stove and a bottle rack. It dries faster after a few minutes on boiling water then on the rack.
We used Dr Brown’s bottle that has a vent/“inside straw”. It doesn’t have that suction while drinking milk.
It helps a lot that our car seat has 2 parts where you can remove the car seat and clip it to the stroller BUT our baby grew out of that car seat fast.
A good changing mat for that messy diaper changes.
We have a few fancy breast pump but if the milk is not coming out then whatever pump it is it won’t work.
It helped me to think of a few reason I can try when the baby cries. Is baby hungry, is baby wet/dirty diaper, is baby uncomfortable with something on her, baby needs a different environment(hot/cold room) or baby needs a nap.
Don’t get stressed on what you read you as a parent “should do” they all don’t know what they are talking about.



I read gauging as gagging. I was like hmm that’s like 4th base already?
