FTM here — what are your absolute must-have baby products?

Hey mamas! I’m a first-time mom to a baby boy born June 6 and slowly realizing there are a MILLION baby products out there and it’s impossible to know what’s actually worth it 

Would love for everyone to drop your tried-and-true favorites — especially you second-time and third-time mamas (but FTMs, please share too!).

Looking for recommendations on:
🛒 Strollers
🍼 Breast pumps
💩 Favorite diapers
🎥 Baby monitors
👶 Cute/fun baby products you didn’t expect to love
🛏️ Sleep essentials (swaddles, sound machines, etc.)

Anything you swear by, please share! I’d love for this thread to be full of real, tried-and-true recommendations from actual moms. Thanks in advance!!

    Congratulations on your baby boy, he's turning 3 months!

    I'm a mom of 3 and I totally get how overwhelming these millions of baby products out there. Here are a few ones that what worked great for us:
    • Diapers - Huggies Ultra Dry (lessen occurrence of nappy rash as they keep my baby dry) and Babylove Nappies (more budget-friendly option but works great too)
    • Baby Bottles - Definitely Pigeon bottles! We struggled transitioning my eldest from EBF to bottle, I've tried quite a number of brands and it's only Pigeon she's accepted. So on my 2nd and 3rd child, I go straight with Pigeon and it worked just as great for them.
    • Breast pump - Because we love Pigeon bottles, so I've tried their double electric breast pump too. I don't use it a lot because I'm working from home (and eventually switched to formula) but I've had no issues with them.
    • Cute/fun baby products you didn’t expect to love - A baby bouncer! It's a lifesaver for me especially when I'm working and baby's awake or when I needed two free hands. Choose one with sturdy frame, a 3-5 point secure harness, and entertainment features.
