Favorite Mom & Baby Products

This is one of the first things that came to my mind to post about when I started my blog. There are SO many products out there that it can get overwhelming, especially for a first time mom. I know I was extremely overwhelmed about everything in general, and to add to that, we had an issue with breastfeeding that ended up being a tongue tie which took me months to figure out, but that's a story for another time :) lets get started.

Favorite pump: Medela Pump InStyle was the only thing that worked for me, but I also was a "just-enougher". I was able to get it free through insurance (aeroflow breastpumps), and at first it didn't work. At about 2 months I tried it again and for some reason it worked amazing! Before that I used the MomCozy S9 wireless pump, and that one did work decent, but if you don't fit it perfectly on your breast then you won't get very much out. I also didn't know this at the time, so it discouraged me that I wasn't making any milk after already dealing with not being able to breastfeed. I ended up using the MomCozy for on-the-go, and would recommend that one for a wireless pump. I would recommend the S12 because the pump on the S9 quit working on me, but that could have been because I accidentally left it in the fridge a couple times :)

Breastmilk storage: Mason Bottles and silicone bags. I refused to store my breastmilk in plastic because the microplastics can leach into the breastmilk. Links below:

Silverettes: I was skeptical about these because they are pricey, but they are worth it! It helped immensely with my extreme nipple pain because of my baby's inability to latch and suck correctly. I had to eventually stop after so long anyway, but they helped me make it a lot longer. Worth it!

Favorite baby bottles: Pigeon. They are glass and IMO have the best nipple that is closest to a real breast. We tried Dr. Brown's and never again with the green inserts, and Philips Avent, which took him an hour to finish because they aren't great for babies with feeding struggles. The Pigeon bottles have been fantastic and are easy to clean and great quality.

Formula: Kendamil Organic. The best formula I could find. It is made in Europe with milk from grass-fed cows which sold me. Europe has a lot higher regulations on the food supply than the United States and have banned a lot of chemicals and addivites in food that the US has not. I also like this formula because it is made with whole milk (animal fats are very healthy for babies and adults) and has no corn syrup or maltodextrin. It does have canola oil, which I don't love, but the amount is minimal compared to the amount of milkfat in it. We swtiched fully to formula at 5 months, and before that he would probably have 1 bottle of formula a day and I would pump the rest.

Favorite diapers: Pampers Pure or Dyper.

Favorite wipes: I really don't have a certain one I like, but my husband buys the thick and quilted ones from Aldi's. He also likes the diapers from Aldi's, but in my experience they run small and don't absorb as much as the same size in a different brand. They are great to have as a backup or on the go IMO!

Favorite baby wash: Honest Co. Fragrance Free

Favorite diaper cream: Pipette. Nontoxic, no fragrances or harsh chemicals :) I can't find it on Amazon but they do have it at Walmart.

They also have cream to powder as well which is fantastic for diaper rashes.
