Maternity must haves that made pregnancy more comfortable and enjoyable. These are the items I actually used and loved simple things that helped me feel supported and prepared through every stage.
These were perfect to throw on with any bottoms, great for summer or winter cause you can wear under any top!

The secret to avoiding stretch marks is hydration! This affordable oil costs just $10. I used it after every shower, applying it all over my body, and paired it with their daily moisturizing lotion.
Aveeno Oil & Lotion
The secret to avoiding stretch marks is hydration! This is a high-end option and smells delightful. I used it after every shower, applying it all over my body, and paired it with their daily moisturizing lotion.

Loved these for long days, so supportive!
Women's Belly Support
Everyone has a preference with prenatal, there are for-sure healthier ones than gummies but this was all I was able to keep down after first trimester!
Prenatal Multivitamin Gummies
Post-Partum
Postpartum, I could finally enjoy scents again without feeling sick, so I wanted something that felt a little luxurious. I loved this lotion and paired it with the matching body wash for a pampered, fresh feeling.
Nécessaire
These truly saved me during the first few weeks after giving birth. I wore them with breastfeeding-friendly gowns, and they had the perfect amount of support. Plus, they were easy to toss if there were any spills—so much better than the mesh ones.
Frida PP Undies
These are great for breastfeeding, they unclip easily and are comfy.
Nursing Bras for Breastfeeding
I know Frida isn't a fan favorite, but this is what I used. I would say that it's a nice amount for a few days.
Postpartum Recovery Kit
I would recommend if you tore, or had a hard labor. Otherwise, you can skip.
Tucks Multi-Care Relief Kit
Newborn
Baby slept in our room, so this was perfect for nighttime feedings without waking my husband. It’s touch-activated and changes colors—keeping it on red during breastfeeding was especially nice since red light is said to be beneficial.

• Bonding
• Tummy Time
• Play
Organic Infant Lounger
These arent essential, but they are really nice to have!

This was also a life saver as a multi-child household. It gave me flexibility, I honestly love wraps for tiny bodies!
Baby Wrap

I did so much research and this legit was the best option and it grows with your child!
Mockingbird High Chair
This is hands down my favorite purchase, essential in my humble opinion! My petite 18m still fits!
Wildbird Aerial Carrier
This is great if you have a large family, to haul all of that extra stuff to the beach or zoo, it is something I would recommend in addition to a regular stroller.
