I can’t believe we will have another little baby here in a few weeks! It feels kind of surreal. I am feeling all the emotions knowing this will be my last baby, but also a huge sigh of relief. Having babies is hard! Especially in those first few weeks where you’re exhausted and adjusting to a new routine.
I thought I’d share some of my postpartum favorites that make me feel good, especially in that window of time when I feel out of sorts with my body. A lot of these items are geared towards breastfeeding which I intend to try, but I’m not sure how long I’ll last this time. I’ll just say they were all great for previous journeys with my babies and I hope they work for you too!
Here are some of my postpartum essentials in no particular order:
Cozy robe! I love these colors from Lake Pajamas. It’s so nice to have a cozy robe at the hospital.
I love love these bamboo washable nursing pads!
A comfortable nursing tank is essential. Mine is super old but I found something similar that comes in a 2 pack.
This isn’t something that is essential so much as it is a day brightener, but I love this mama necklace. I love having pieces of jewelry that honor bringing a new child into the world! They are so special.
Perineal ice packs. For vaginal deliveries. The item you never knew you needed but will help a lot in recovery.
This hands-free pumping bra and portable breast pump were some of my favorite postpartum items last go around. You can read my Luna Motif Breast Pump review here.
These are the most comfortable nursing bras. I’ve been wearing them already because they are so soft and I sleep in them.
I LOVE this onesie. It’s been a pregnancy staple for me and it will be one that makes me feel comfortable postpartum.
Who doesn’t love a cozy pair of slippers or a relaxing moisturizer to for tired skin?
7 weeks until little man arrives! We can’t wait.
