Got lots of Qs about this sweet little mug - it was part of this gift box we received when Ollie was born! I love that everything was bear themed because we call him “Ollie bear” all the time

Finally upgraded my claw clip situation 😅 I’ve been hanging onto my last surviving clip for dear life because the rest of the pack I bought years ago have slowly snapped. I grabbed these larger clips since my hair is longer now and I don’t know why I waited - I was convinced a big clip would look obnoxious, but this one is the perfect “holds everything” size without looking silly huge. I got the color Coffee, and it comes in a bunch of really cute colors. Also love the square shape - it actually grips and stays put.

Just placed a little Quince swim order because it’s already warming up in San Diego and I wanted suits that fit my body right now. I grabbed two bikinis and a one-piece that feel high-waisted without feeling frumpy — and I love the higher leg cut. It’s the kind of fit that makes me feel more like myself heading into spring/summer.

Attempting the nap transfer like it’s a professional sport 😅 The SNOO has been our go-to for those “please stay asleep” moments — especially when I’m trying to move him from a contact nap and keep the vibe calm.

Gas has been one of the biggest newborn curveballs for us, so these two have been in heavy rotation. Frida Windi has helped when he’s clearly uncomfortable and we’re stuck in that “won’t settle” cycle, and Mylicon gas drops have been a nice, simple go-to for everyday gassiness. Not saying either is magic every time, but having both on hand has made us feel way more prepared.

Momcozy Silent Swaddles have been my favorite swaddles by far — the Velcro is actually silent, which means I’m not waking him up during nighttime diaper changes or middle-of-the-night re-swaddles. Such a small detail, but it makes a huge difference when you’re trying to keep everything calm and sleepy.

This little overall set is honestly one of the cutest baby outfits I’ve found. It’s perfect for everyday, and the overalls over the striped long-sleeve bodysuit is that “tiny baby dressed like a little person” vibe I can’t get over.

Postpartum “treat yourself” moment 🤍 I picked up two lip products as a little piece of self-care and they’ve been so nice for the days I want to feel a bit more put together with basically zero effort. One is the Laneige Lip Glowy Balm in Peach Iced Tea (so hydrating and smells amazing) and the other is the bareMinerals tinted lip balm in Strength for that easy tint that doesn’t feel like a full face of makeup

This Pottery Barn blanket is one of my favorite “keepsake” baby items we’ve gotten. It’s customized with Oliver’s name, and the little 3D clouds are so cute in person. It feels special without being too precious to actually use.

I’m planning to use it for floor time/tummy time, traveling (it’s the perfect extra layer to throw in the car), and I already know it’s going to be so sweet when he’s bigger — like for his first little toddler bed.

Use code JULIABB20 for a discount on the Momcozy site! This nursing cover is such a good “doesn’t look like a nursing cover” option. It’s more elevated and actually cute — it wears like a little poncho/shawl, so you can throw it on and it just looks like part of your outfit.

For nursing mamas, it’s great for coverage without feeling like you’re wearing a big obvious cover. And I’ve been using it too when we have company or we’re visiting people and I’m pumping with my mobile pumps — it gives me a little privacy without making a whole thing of it.

I’ve accepted that I’m officially a bum brush person 😂 When I was pregnant I thought they were so silly and was convinced I’d never use one… now we love them. We keep one in the nursery and one in our living room changing area, and I realized I also don’t want diaper cream all over my fingers when we’re out.

So I found this mini bum brush for the diaper bag and it’s honestly perfect — small, adorable, and actually makes diaper cream so much less messy.

Having the Nanit Pro up on my iPad has been so helpful, especially when I’m trying to get things done around the house. I like being able to keep an eye on him without hovering in the room — it gives me a little peace of mind.
