Heads up: Some of the links below are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you choose to buy through them—at no extra cost to you. But just so we’re clear: these are all products we’ve actually used and found helpful. No one’s paying me to feature them. I only recommend what I’d tell a friend.

Before Baby Arrives

  • Baby formula – even if you plan on breastfeeding, have a container handy just in case. Pick what’s best for you!
  • Recliner – something comfy to sit in while doing all things baby. I suggest getting this from a physical store so it feels right. Pay a little extra for what works for you – we still use ours!
