A Baby Carriers

Moby Wrap : The OG for baby wearing. Totally awesome and I used them with all my boys. Learning curve can be high but once you know how to use it, you'll love it!

Solly Wrap : Very similar to the Moby Wrap but with a lighter and stretchier fabric. This is what I used with my third because I preferred the lighter fabric

Ergo Baby: LOVED this for travel, flying, and as the boys got older. It washes great and is such a fun way to show your baby the world, and have both of your hands!

The Right Pacifier and Bottle

There are over 30 different bottles and pacifiers to choose from. Your goal: choose one that looks like a breast AFTER the baby has breastfed or you've pumped. Nearly any bottle that falls in that category will be a great choice for your baby.

Here are a few great bottle options. Remember, the bottle matters far less than how you use it.

Pacificer: The pacifier is one of the most underrated tools in a new parent's toolkit. Beyond comfort it supports self regulation, strengthens the oral motor skills that make both breastfeeding and bottle feeding easier — and research shows it reduces SIDS risk when used during sleep. The Philips Avent Soothie is a great starting point.
