Having your first baby is SO exciting… and also completely overwhelming. There are approximately one million things people tell you that you “need” before your baby arrives, but what do you actually need?

We’re talking newborn essentials, postpartum must-haves, feeding, diapers, sleep, and all the little things we wish someone had told us about before becoming moms. If you’re pregnant with your first baby, building your registry, or just wondering what you actually need to survive those first few weeks—we’ve got you. 🤍

It’s a little nostalgic, a little messy, and very us. 🫶🏼
