As a new mom sometimes the amount of baby products and
brands can be daunting. I remember being so excited to register when we found
out about our son only to get there and be so completely overwhelmed that the
process was miserable and I was totally disappointed! Now that I feel I have
some experience, I have compiled my Top 10 baby musts in hopes to save you time
and money. In no particular order my Top 10 Product Picks for Baby are…

1. Soothie
bottles: the first years by Learning Curve.
They advertise as the nipple
closest to the breast which is also the same nipple as the Soothie pacifiers used
in most hospitals. A bonus to the bottle is the small container that comes attached.
These are great for pre-measured formula or small snacks!
2. Boudreaux's
Butt Paste
We originally
opted for this rash ointment because my husband liked the name, but it is
amazing!!! It's a little more expensive than other brands but we are still on
our original 2oz tube after more than 9 months! That means, it lasts
longer because it works!
3. Gentle
Naturals Homeopathic Teething Drop
I
like these because they are all natural as opposed to other teething solutions.
BONUS: Gentle Naturals also makes other products that I have used and loved!
4. Fisher
Price Space Saver High Chair.
This is a great alternative for a
separate, bulky, large high chair as this sits right on top of your own dinning
chairs. It is also cost effective at around $50.
5. 'Super
Baby Food' by Ruth Yaron.
I make my baby's food and this
book is essential! It tells you when and what types of food your baby can eat
as well as how to prepare it as well as so much more! You can find this book
online or at Borders for around $20. It is a great value as I pick it up on a
daily basis.
6. Coppertone Spray Lotion and Stick
Living in Florida you need a great
sunscreen for your baby and this is it! The spray is no
fuss and the stick is great for face.
7. Nuby No-Spill Cups
This is the
cheapest brand of no-spill cup you can buy!
BONUS: DADDY'S
TOP PICK
Johnson's
Bedtime Bath Collection
Our
son smells amazing after bathing with this product.

8.
Eddie Bauer Travel System
I did a lot of research before
deciding which car seat and stroller to register for and this car seat was the
lightest I found at only 8lbs and the stroller is super roomy and comfy for my
little guy. BONUS: The Eddie Bauer Convertible Car Seat is also great and
actually cheaper than similar brands.
9.
Garanimals clothing line at Walmart
These items are a
great cost to quality value!
10. Target
Brand Diapers and Wipes
I've used most brands but when
looking for a better value the Target brand was recommended to me. The wipes
are great and very comparable to Pampers. And with a cost of less than $14 for a
box of 104 diapers they are good quality and have been a great money saver for
us.
