There are so many products for babies and just as many opinions! These are the 6-9 month essentials we have found most helpful as first-time parents. xoxo
Car Seat and Stroller: As mentioned in the Newborn Essentials and 3-6 Month Essentials posts, we still love and use the Doona Infant Car Seat, UPPAbaby VISTA V2 Stroller, AMACOOL Battery Operated Stroller Fan, stroller blanket, and this Monogrammed Pacifier Clip Holder.
Sleep: Previously mentioned favorites in the Newborn Essentials and 3-6 Month Essentials posts, still include the Eufy Life S340 Smart Sock and Monitor, Hatch Rest+ 2nd Gen Portable Dream Machine, Kyte Baby Sleep Bag 1.0, and Kissy Kissy Footie Pajamas. We have moved on to the Moms on Call Next Steps Baby Care 6-15 Months book and the Little English Fottie Pajamas have become our new favorite pajamas.
Diaper: The Munchkin Step Diaper Pail, OXO Tot Perfect Pull Wipes Dispenser, A+D Original Diaper Rash Ointment, and Coterie Diapers continue to be favorites in our house. More detail on these can be found in the Newborn Essentials and 3-6 Month Essentials posts.
Feeding: As mentioned in the Newborn Essentials and 3-6 Month Essentials posts, the Baby Brezza Formula Pro Advanced, Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow® Anti-Colic Newborn Bottles, mushie Silicone Baby Feeding Spoons, mushie Silicone Suction Bowl, Comfy Cubs Muslin Baby Bibs, Dr. Brown’s Milestones Narrow Sippy Bottle, WeeSprout Glass Baby Food Storage Jars are new kitchen staples for us. Since we had great luck with the mushi brand for spoons and bowls, we have added the mushie Trainer Sippy Cup and mushi Silicone Suction Plate into the rotation. When eating out we have found the Inglesina Fast Table Chair to be useful in some instances and the Hippypotamus Disposable Placemats Baby is a must when you have a baby who loves to chew on tables.
Bath: The 4-in-1 Grow-with-Me Bath Tub by Frida Baby, Noodle & Boo 2-in-1 Newborn Hair & Body Wash, Noodle & Boo Super Soft Moisturizing Lotion, NailFrida The Snipper Clipper Set, mushie Stackable Bath Boats Toy, Mold Free Baby Bath Toys, and Honest bubble bath still make bathtime a blast. More detail on these can be found in the Newborn Essentials and 3-6 Month Essentials posts.
Play: As mentioned in the 3-6 Month Essentials post, the Lovevery Play Gym and subscription boxes, Frida Baby Not-Too-Cold-to-Hold, and Joovy Spoon Baby Walker & Activity Center are still favorites. The BABY BJÖRN Bouncer with the Googly Eyes Pastel Bouncer Toy seemed to be most useful during 3-6 months. Dr. Brown’s Designed to Nourish has been a great way to introduce new foods while continuing to combat the pains of teething. Around 8 months, we started playing with the Wonder & Wise by Asweets Activity Push Walker, which is a great toy for many stages of advancement.
