One of our own, Alicia, is expecting later this summer and we’ve asked her to share her registry must haves as a first-time mom. Have you used any of these items? Alicia and I would love to know what you think! Share your comments and the must-have items on your registry below! –Olivia
Stroller: BOB Revolution Flex Stroller
My stroller checklist is pretty simple: safe, comfortable, lightweight and foldable! That way, it can go in and out of the car, plus is easy to jog and run with. I settled on the BOB Revolution Stroller, as it hits all of my must haves. It doesn’t hurt that is has a lot of cool, techy features too!
Baby Carrier: ERGObaby 360 Carrier
I plan to be a mom-on-the-go, so I looked for a carrier with different holding positions (this one has 4,) one that has comfort and size customization for both me and the baby. I think it will be perfect for when my little one wants to be snug and held, but I need to be hands free.
Nursing Pillow: The Honest Company Nursing Pillow or The Boppy
A nursing pillow is great for all moms – nursing or not! It’s not only awesome for supporting your baby while breastfeeding, but also great for tummy time, learning to sit up and to help prop them up for the perfect photo. I plan on using the heck out of this thing!
Décor: Babyprints Deluxe Wall Frame
Babies change so much in their first year and I plan on capturing every cute moment! A photo frame is a special way to display the memories. I also love a good photo-op and these age blocks are an awesome prop while documenting my growing babe.
Swaddles & Sleepsacks: Aden + Anais Muslin Swaddle Blanket; Halo Sleepsack
Swaddles are an awesome multi-use item. The tight swaddles and sleepsacks are perfect for keeping baby cozy, hopefully resulting in a lot of sweet slumber (for the baby’s sake and mine!) And since I plan on nursing, they will make great covers and oversized burp cloths for a little boob and puke protection.
Diaper Bag: Honest Carryall Diaper Bag
A chic diaper bag is a must! I’m seriously craving this Honest Diaper bag; it’s super stylish yet functional. It has stroller hook options, a changing pad and tons of easy access pockets inside for keeping the craziness organized.
