After three babies, I've learned what is really essential for new baby needs. Still not an expert, as parenting is a constant learning curve, but I feel confident in these 29 must have new baby essentials.

I’ve put together a list of some of our favorite products we used almost daily for Berkley, Sawyer, and now, Asher. Some of these products have evolved with each child as we've learned ourselves what worked and what didn't. And some of these products are the same ones we've been using since our oldest was born. Enjoy and let me know if you have any favorites below!

Newborn Baby Essentials

Bibs Pacifier: Our favorite simple pacifier. Berkley never took to a pacifier, but this was Sawyer's favorite and Asher seems to take to it as well.
Pacifier Clip: Perfect for when baby spits out the pacifier...and it's cute.
Lovevery Playgym: Perfect place to keep the baby entertained and practice tummy time.
Hatch Baby Sound Machine: Hands down the best sound machine we've ever had. We went through 5 different ones with Berkley that all broke. When Sawyer was born, I found Hatch Baby. It is still our favorite 3 years later and got one for Asher as well.
Portable Sound Machine: Everybody needs this! We use this daily for when we are out of the house and it is game changer.
Diaper Bag Backpack: I've had a different diaper bag for all 3 kids and this one is by far my favorite. Bonus, it also looks more fashionable!
Fern & Avery Muslin Swaddle Blankets: These are fantastic! I use them for everything, from swaddling to a burp cloth.
SwaddleMe Swaddles: There are a ton of different options out there, but these basic swaddles were perfect for all three of our kids.
Nursing Tank: I absolute love these. They are perfect for nighttime, but also great during the day under a cardigan. It makes it so easy to whip it out for your hungry baby.
Nursing Bra: For the days when you want to get a little more fancier than a nursing tank, these are the best ones I've tried, especially for the price.
Haaka: I wish I got this with my first two! Every time I nurse I put it on the other side and I am amazed how much milk comes out.
Baby Teether: Always a necessity. We really like this one!
Crib Sheets: Simple and classy.
Changing Pad Cover: Simple and neutral.
Compact Stroller: We absolutely love this compact stroller. It is lightweight, yet sturdy. It trifolds, making it perfect for travel. And it is carseat compatible! We also have the Mockingbird Stroller that we love as well.
4-in-1 Carseat Cover: Love everything about this. A must have!
Ergo Baby 360 Baby Carrier: We tried a few others and always felt most comfortable with the ergo baby. All our kids have loved it as well.
Oogiebear Ear & Nose: Always good to have.
Mama Bear Diapers: Hands down our favorite diapers! They are Amazon's brand and I am so glad we tried them because we are hooked.
Mama Bear Wipes: We also love their wipes!
Dekor Diaper Pail: Holds the smell in and convenient when you are changing 50,000 diapers.
4-in-1 Bathtub: This is perfect for every stage.
Graco Snug Ride LX Infant Carseat: Safe, comfy and easy to carry.
Baby Car Mirror: Such a necessity. We've been pleased with this one.
Graco Pack 'N Play: We use this during the newborn stage by our bed. It transitions well to when baby is older and perfect to take on overnight stays.
Ingenuity SmartBounce Bouncer: Our babies all loved this. The smart bounce is amazing.
Dr. Browns 5 oz Bottles: We had a different brand before and have loved these so much more.
Dr. Brown's Deluxe Baby Bottle Warmer: Easy to use and gets the job done.
Medela Breast Milk Storage Bags: Easy to use and perfect for storing your extra milk supply.
