Baby & Mommy Must Haves

I want to share some of MY Must Haves:) I made myself a baby wrap carrier. And I can't wait to use it with my new baby!

You can carry your baby so many ways with one of these!
Lansinoh nursing pads are my favorite!! They are so thin that they don't bunch up in your bra, but they absorb a ton!!
A bouncer. My son got a lot of use out of this. I intend to re-cover it with cuter fabric for this coming baby.
A spa/sound machine. This saved me many nights, when my son kept on screaming!! His favorite was the sound of the birds with a stream.:) And it was only like $15 at Wal Mart. Great investment!!
A swaddle blanket, or as I like to call it, a "burrito blanket". When my boy started to get really fussy at night, this helped a ton!! I think they are like $10 at Wal Mart.
A nursing cover:) Shocker, I know. When I made my first one, I couldn't believe how much easier it was to nurse at church, or even at my house (if I had guests). I was a lot more confident too, because I didn't have to worry about trying to hold a blanket up with my teeth! (p.s. I sell these! Check out Charlie Cloths!)
A boppy pillow. My baby was a HORRIBLE nurser for the first four months, and this helped a lot, so that I could hold him better, and keep the shield on better. I am in the process of making a new cover for mine, to match the cover that I am making for the bouncer! Cute!
A nipple shield. My husband calls this the "human bottle". That's basically what it is. It totally taught my baby how to latch on, and not only that, but it helps if your nipples are super sore. I LOVE these!!
This nipple cream is amazing! My visiting teacher gave me some when I was struggling with nursing. It's not like the lansinoh, or other brands that are really thick- cause every time I used those ones, I had to rub it in, and it would grab the skin. Ouch! This stuff is really smooth. It's kind of expensive at $10 for a 2 oz bottle, but I am sure it will last me through at least 3 kids!
