By We are 5 days into our life as a family of three and I wanted to share 10 (because I couldn’t settle on just 5) things that have been so very helpful in making our adjustment a smooth one!
- Sound Machine(s): Travel Sound Machine $10; Nursery Sound Machine $40
- Car seat cover + nursing cover: multi use cover in gender neutral colors $25
- Medela Hydrogel pads $6
- Swaddles: Aden + Anais ($35)
- Bassinet $50
- Breastfeeding pillow: Boppy $30; My Brestfriend $30
- Pack n’ Play (our little one loves sleeping here during the day) $100
- Online grocery ordering / pick up $5 at Harris Teeter
- TV Streaming (we’re currently binge watching Homeland): Hulu
- A good support system and food! No links for this one but I will say that we haven’t had to cook since getting home thanks to my in-laws and my mom cleaned the house while we were still in the hospital so we’ve just been able to relax and focus on our baby. Also, I have the greatest husband EVER – who has made my recovery much easier!
