When I was pregnant with Mila and starting to think about all of the things that we needed, I was so overwhelmed. I sat down with multiple friends and went through their registries line by line and talked about what worked for them and what didn’t. What did they actually use? What was a waste of money?
Of course, every baby is different but the amount of time and effort that I put into this research needs to be documented somewhere – so I hope that this helps you choose what may work for your family.
I tried to include as many things as I could think of that we use on a day-to-day basis, if I’m missing anything please send me a message on Instagram (@sabrinamolu) and I’ll add it to the list!
