Fun story: when you open up a diaper, the sudden change in temperature can cause newborns to start peeing. I have had newborn changing sessions go through about four diapers until we finally got a clean one. Having a changing pad that can be easily wiped down without soaking is truly a game-changer. I loved them so much that I tossed every other type of cover I had.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this changing pad cover; the wipeable feature is a game changer. As a second-time mom, this item is a must-have. It is so easy to clean, comfortable for baby, and I don’t have to change the cover as often as I do with my covers. It’s so easy to wipe clean and holds up well in the washing machine as well. You will not regret buying this for your little one." —Sunshine1227

Price: $16.99 (also available in an animal print and green floral)

Promising review: "This Haaka is great for engorgement. It helps relieve the pressure while saving the milk. You will look lopsided if you only wear one. I bought two and wore them in my bra with a loose-fitting shirt, and it looks normal and makes engorgement much more comfortable. Easy to pour out collected milk and easy to clean." —Nicole B

Price: $17.99

The formula comes out clump-free, can be made up to 24 hours in advance, and has no bubbles which can lead to gas.

Promising review: "I love this pitcher; it is the perfect size. Easy to use, so you can store formula for the whole day, and it gets rid of air bubbles in the milk. If you have a baby registry, make sure to add this gift." —Rhonda

Price: $8.49 (originally $9.99; available in three colors)

Promising review: "I love this bottle warmer! The only downside is that it takes a while (5 minutes for 3 ounces cold) to heat up, but otherwise, it's great!!" —Ldm3685

Price: $79.99

Price: $18.20

Promising review: "These wipes are a must-have! I purchased these to use on pacifiers, but they are also perfect for wiping down toys and other dropped items when out and about. They are very gentle, have no smell or leftover taste like other wipes, and have no harsh chemicals. I love them so much that I use them not only in my diaper bag but around the house for a quick clean for both pacifiers and toys. Would 100% recommend!" —Mommamaca

Price: $3.99 for a pack of 36 wipes

True story: I once forgot a dirty diaper in the car overnight, and these bags saved my car from *that* smell! These are inexpensive and so helpful in a pinch.

Promising review: "These bags are amazing. You really cannot smell any bad smells when you put dirty diapers in them and tie them. They take up almost no space and are great to go. I have the bags in the nursery changing station and also clipped the dispenser to the play yard for easy access to change anywhere. I love these." —Nik

Price: $4.39

If you haven't had a baby yet, logistics can be hard to plan ahead for. One of the bigger ones I never thought about until I was home alone with this tiny baby was, "What do I do when I need to use the restroom?" This chair ended up being perfect because I could set my baby in it and even bring it into the bathroom if needed. Both of my kids were also gassy babies, and I cannot understate how much gassy babies love to bounce. A bouncer gave me a bouncing break and the mental break I needed with a newborn.

Promising review: If there is a baby must-have item I could recommend to other moms, it’s this one! My daughter absolutely loves it. I was scared of the color she’d sit on being white as she has had a few accidents, but I have washed it several times, and not only is it easy to get back to white, but the quality is amazing!" —Mary

Price: $69.99 (available in two colors)

This is the one thing people balk at until they actually have a stuffed-up kid. I get it; it's on the gross side when you put too much thought into it. But the filter helps keep germs away from you, and the relief is immediate. This is one of the many times you'll be putting your pride away in the name of your kids.

Promising review: "It is so easy to use and clean! It's way better than bulb syringes. I will definitely be adding this to any gifts for new mom friends." —Mommabearv

Price: $14.99

So many people swear by humidifiers, but I had never used one prior to having a baby. If you're a skeptic like I was, I can verify that getting a humidifier has been so helpful, especially now that my kids are a bit older. Whenever I see the first sign of a sniffle, I pull the humidifier out and see dramatic improvement when I try to grit my teeth and hold on until it passes.

Promising review: "I love this little humidifier! I love that it is compact, super easy to fill, doesn’t take up much space, and yet puts out a ton of moisture! I use it in a living room with a dining room and kitchen, and it works wonders! My plants are much happier as well now too and thriving. Also, it is cute and it has really pretty blue light that looks cool when lit, and you can choose to run it with or without the light and it also has two output selections. I am super happy with this purchase and highly recommend this humidifier. :)" —Lyzard

Price: $29.99

Promising review: "I use these daily on my baby’s changing pad table. They are great for any accidents and are machine washable. I purchased three packs and washed them frequently. I haven’t had any issues with washing or using these. I had no clue these existed — they were a recommendation from a friend." —alyssa1129

Price: $10.49 for a set of three

This sound machine is rechargeable, has three sound options, and has a convenient clip for hanging.

Price: $9.99

I have tried *alloftheswaddles* and am a brand loyalist to this one. Most of the Velcro ones are way too hot; swaddling a regular blanket comes apart quickly, and others are just too complicated. These sleep sacks zip up and down and are the perfect blanket, while blankets are unsafe in the crib.

Promising review: "My newborn has refused to sleep any more than 15–30 minutes at a time and cluster feeds. Tonight was my first time using this swaddle, and she’s finally sleeping! I also love that the Velcro is of phenomenal quality! Other swaddles made it easy to wiggle her arms out of, but not this one! The material is lightweight as well and won’t cause overheating. I absolutely recommend this product as a mom of seven." —Ashley

Price: $29.99 (available in two sizes and four patterns)

This feeding set is exceptionally well-reviewed and cuts down on so many dishes. You can steam the food in the bowl — stovetop with boiling water or microwave — collapse it into a baby-friendly bowl, then when baby is done, pop it right into the dishwasher. The convenience is unmatched. It's also super cute AND babies love using the spoon as a teether, too.

Promising review: "I Purchased this for my 7-month-old grandson, and it's perfect for preparing and feeding. I love that I can easily steam-cook (or warm) meals for him in one bowl. Having a baby-friendly short spoon to encourage him to practice while I sneak in mouthfuls is great. It's just the right size as well. Two thumbs up on this." —peggyc

Price: $24.49

Research suggests that allergens be introduced early and often, but keeping up on it can be hard. Puffs are accessible and easy to throw in the bag and if you're unsure of how to introduce nuts to kids, these can really help.

Promising review: "These puffs have been a pantry staple for each of our kiddos. We first used them to help intro nuts early, then kept them as a pantry must-have for snack time! As our oldest grew we sent them to school for easy lunchbox filler too. These are 100% clean and all protein, which is practically a unicorn option these days for kids!" —Lauren A

Price: $4.07 (originally $4.79)

Promising review: "This baby NutriBullet makes prepping your own baby food so easy to throw together and clean! The containers also have a spin wheel to mark the date you made it to keep track. Also very easy to travel with pack and go if you need as it’s small! Loving everything about it." —Marilyn

Price: $48.99

Promising review: "I love my Sage Spoonful baby glassware! It withstands hot and cold items, and the glass is thick enough to be sturdy against normal wear and tear. I feel reassured knowing that the glass is quality, and I’m not exposing my child to additional toxins that can be found in some baby plasticware! It’s lasted in our family for four years, and it’s a baby-feeding essential item for new parents." —Sierra

Price: $34.99 for a 12-pack

Promising review: "I've purchased other brands of baby food pouches and they're impossible to clean. I love these Sage Spoonfuls pouches because they are SO easy to clean. The entire side opens up so you can access every corner and the spout to clean them thoroughly. These pouches are also dishwasher- safe. Love them, highly recommend." —RAH

Price: $12.99 for six pouches

Promising review: "This mat is everything! I use it numerous many times a week for my toddler. We love it because it’s easy to clean, doesn’t stain, stays on the counter (unless it’s pulled on), and is so easy to use! You have to buy this!" —melrosebe

Price: $14.99

Promising review: "I love this Bissell Little Green Cleaner!!!! It’s the best thing I could have purchased! I have four children and a beige couch! Do I need to go any further, lol? This machine cleaned every inch of my couch!!!!" —Furniture Cleaner

Price: $99.99 (originally $123.99)

If your baby has cradle cap, remember that it isn't due to poor hygiene as once believed. You're a good parent and it's another thing to work through. This system can really help and will probably make you feel a bit better!

Promising review: "This product helped my son with his cradle cap. It’s super easy to use, and I got rid of most of it the first time. Would buy again." —Jess

Each set comes with eight textured balls, eight counting blocks, and four squeezable animals.

Promising review: "I love how small — but not too small — these toys are for babies. My son has just turned five months old and can easily grip small animals. He loves holding onto the monkey one. He likes to chew and to suck on them. He loves the pink, soft, bumpy one. They are perfect for teething and introducing new shapes to babies. It keeps him very entertained. He smiles when I squeak the balls. He opens his hands and expects me to hand him every single one of these toys. His joy lights my world." —Dani

Price: $24.99 for a 20-piece set

Promising review: "Extremely simple and effective. My kindergartner was able to unbuckle her own car seat quickly on her first try with zero frustration. It makes school drop-off smooth and drama-free!" —Peepums

Promising review: We love these!! Exactly what we were looking for to stop our daughter from biting her crib. It's super easy to install. Plus, they look great and are very soft." —ccmerutka
