Give Me Lala…And Her Mommy Must-Haves!
Let's be honest, being a first-time mom is equal parts exciting and confusing! Chances are that you've spent an alarming amount of time already scouring the best baby must-haves Amazon has to offer. I feel you! Whether you are expecting your first child or you've just given birth a few months ago, sometimes, it's hard to figure out which products are actually worth the extra money, what's a downright necessity and what’s not.
That's why in the latest episode of The McCord List, I hopped on with Lala Kent, model, actress, and owner of the highly-coveted inclusive and cruelty-free beauty brand Give Them Lala Beauty, to share our top baby and mom essentials on Amazon.
“Give Them Lala” perfectly explores Lala’s rocky road to fame, sobriety, and her life journey through humorous and brutally honest writing that is super easy-to-read. Her transparency shines through every page in the most honest and entertaining way.
This cup keeps liquids cool for extremely long periods of time so that your baby can ease his/her way into drinking from a straw rather than a bottle. Plus, the texture is so soft!
My son is utterly obsessed with his liquid vitamins and this Babycook has been a life-saver. Plus, you can prepare all kinds of foods like fruits, vegetables, meat or fish depending on your child’s age.
Simple Joys by Carter's Baby 2-Pack 2-Way Zip Thermal Footed Sleep and Play
Here’s the thing: Even if you’ve purchased an array of cute crop tops and matching sets for your baby, the reality is that Zip Thermal Footed PJs are the comfiest and most versatile baby clothing you can get! Plus, how adorable are these animal prints!
Both the animal plush stuffed toys and the hand puppets double as a great teaching moment. Apart from the obvious fun aspect of it, you can help your little one learn as he/she plays (which is the quintessential way to keep them focused and entertained).
Smily Mia Penguin Buddy Never Drop Silicone Baby Teething Toy
My little man is absolutely obsessed with the banana, but every Amazon baby teething product in this list is equally as amazing! Granted, it can also be described as a teething toothbrush, and it works wonders!
Here is yet another excellent way to keep your baby entertained. These blocks are so fun and can be used for so many different activities, whether it’s learning how to stack objects or for some great sensory and motor play!
This book is seriously one of the best baby products Amazon has to offer! It’s a little meditation book for kids. Kids can trace some specific areas of the book while they are doing their breathing exercises to help them stay focus and calm - and my little one absolutely loves it!
This one is obviously a 100% safe product to put on your baby’s skin, however, as Lala explained, Vaseline of any kind also makes for a great eye moisturizer to avoid getting that dreaded crow’s feet and helps to keep your skin tight and healthy-looking.
These are just a few of our favorites but we have so many more amazing products for baby and for you, mama! Be sure to take a look at my “Newborn” Amazon list to find the best deals!
