baby product? The ONE thing you don't thing you could live without?
Mine- Rock N Play! Our RNP has eliminated the need for a bouncer, swing, and really the PNP. All three of those are packed away in the closet still! LO sleeps, lounges, and plays in his RNP. Absolutely my favorite baby product by far!
(we need to wake this board up!!)
Re: Name your favorite...
My Adin + Anais swaddle blankets! DS loves to be wrapped up like a baby burrito. Also the soothie we got from the hospital, he's a non stop sucker.
I'm such a rule breaker, there are 2 things I simply can not live without.
Maybe once everyone has the first month under their belts the board will pick back up again...
our side by side sleeper,
that thing is a godsend.

Oooh, I have two, is that okay?
1. Ergo baby carrier. For a child that loves being held, and an older one that could still use it on my back, this is, by FAR, the best investment I ever made as far as child-rearing goes.
2. Aden + Anais blankets. I cannot express the love I have for these enough. They're big enough to be tied around my neck and used as a nursing cover (therefore, not having to bring yet another item in the diaper bag). Even with the size of them, they moosh down into practically nothing-sized. They're lightweight so you can still swaddle the little people without having them sweat to death during the heat.

I love my Brest Friend pillow. It makes BF so easy- I pop him on the boob, prop my knees up, and have one (sometimes two) hands free to Bump from my phone while he nurses.
DH loves our Beco carrier. We only use our Snap and Go stroller at the mall or if we need to pick up a few items from the grocery store or Walmart- it's the Beco all the way for any other family excursion. He walks around so proudly wearing LO, it makes my heart melt!
LOVE these!
I'm impressed you can still wear your older child. My daughter will be 3 in Sept and I can't imagine carrying her in my ergo. She's a giant though and is almost 40 lbs already...
Gerber prefolds. Baby girl is a puke machine!
And her bouncer...the only thing that helps either of us sleep.

I'll let you know as soon as Avery stops wanting to be attached to our arms. Not even the carrier lets us get anything done... used to, but not anymore.

Many! The Boppy, the swing, the Newborn Napper, the Aden and Anais blankets which have been amazing during this brutally hot summer, and the pacifier which I really didn't want him to use at first, but they used it alot in the NICU so I got over it and am grateful for it!
We have the Beco Gemini but our son is still a little too tiny to use it (not supposed to start until 7 pounds... he's not quite 6.5 pounds yet... although DH put him in it once and he loved it!)
swaddle me blankets. loved them with my son, love them this time too.
at first, i thought she hated being swaddled, so i didn't for a few weeks... then i tried again and we went from 3 hour stretches to 5-6 hours. love them! she doesn't sleep quite as well in the A&A blankets, but i use them during the day.
Three way tie!
Aden and Anais blankets, Boppy newborn lounger, and Rock & Play!
