Babies—for such small creatures, you wouldn’t think they would need many items… but you’d be wrong! These little angels have LOTS of needs, so in the name of preparation, I’ve gathered the most frequently used newborn essentials for you and your bundle of joy!

If you want to truly be prepared for the first, second, third, and fourth trimester, I’d start by signing up for the FTM Prep Kit!
