Now that Eli is 7 months old, I’ve taken some time to look back at photos from the newborn stage and I’ve found the same products in every single one! I’ve decided to make a collage of all the newborn essentials that we couldn’t have survived without! Obviously these essentials can vary from baby to baby but when you think about it, all you really need is breast/bottle, a safe space to sleep, and diapers. These are the additional essentials that helped us survive the newborn stage! Of course you could splurge and buy all the bells and whistles your heart desires, and if that’s what you want/can afford, you’re more than welcome to do so! But remember that your baby needs you most of all and these affordable basics will be just fine! Follow us on Instagram @mterbsmith for more! NewbornEssentials LTKGiftGuide LTKbaby
