Some of the best advice I was given before my little one arrived was to have a place to put her in every room. Whether it be a bassinet or a seat, there’s going to be a time when you need to put the baby down and you want it to be somewhere safe.

There is no shortage of people willing to give “advice” about what you need and don’t need but I round up my list of products I used and was thankful I had on hand immediately (I even include the products I WISHED I had on hand).
