The Baby Shower Items You Didn't Know you Needed!

These baby shower items are handy practicle items I didn't ask for, but I was thankful someone got me.

1. Batteries

Sounds silly right? But when that vibration on the bassinet or swing stops working at 2am and all you want to do is sleep, you will thank that person over and over again. C and D batteries are the best for this.

2. The Baby Nasal Aspirator NoseFrita Snotsucker PAIRED with the Oogiebear Nose and Ear Gadget. NoseFrita was perfect for those wet buggers, and winter cold. It really helped me see how bad it was and get the most out of her nose, compared to the traditional blue nasal aspirator. While the Oggiebear was perfect for those dry crusting you couldn't and all of the ear gunk that built up. Both of these items were life savers for me.

3. The Nested Bean Sleep Sacks! We have used the suites and the sacks from them and I can honestly say they were amazing, and held up so well! If you are done having babies they also hold their value. I bought 2 of each size and Sadie lived in them. They are usually cheaper on Amazon compared to target, but they are worth the splurge. This is an item this momma will cherish.

Swaddle Nested Bean: We didn't swaddle becasue Sadie wasn't a fan, but I still had one of these. It's a great option for a new momma who hasn't decided yet. We liked it because we could leave her arms out and still wrap her up nice and cozy. 

4. Cradle Cap Brush: These things are so cheap and so handy, every baby is bound to have a dry scalp, cradle cap or be in need of this handy tool at some point in time, and usually they are hard to find in the store. Add this to any gift and be there for momma when she is in need the most.
