Products We Reached For Every Day
The products we used daily and why they earned their spot
There is no shortage of advice when you're expecting a baby.
Everyone has an opinion on what you need, what you'll regret buying, what you absolutely cannot live without. The lists are endless. The registries are overwhelming. And by the time your baby arrives, you've accumulated more things than you have space for — half of which you'll never touch.
This isn't that kind of list.
This is what we'd actually tell a friend sitting across the table from us. The things that quietly became non-negotiable. The ones that made the hard days more manageable and the easier days actually feel easy.
When it became clear I'd be formula feeding, I made a decision early: I was not spending every spare moment I had washing and sterilising bottles. That time was mine — to rest, to eat, to just sit still for five minutes — and I wasn't giving it up. So I found the products that gave it back to me.
Everything on this list earned its place. Nothing is here because it looked good on a shelf.
