Your Go-To Guide for Baby Essentials, Simplified.
All the Essentials, No Overwhelm.
Welcome to the ultimate baby (newborn) shopping list, your go-to spot for all things newborn! The only checklist you’ll ever need for baby’s arrival, until month 3. With handy links to recommended products, this list has all the essentials, no overwhelm.
The Ultimate Newborn Shopping Checklist
The list reflects my personal recommendations based on my own experiences and what I found most helpful for my little one. To keep things simple, I’ve left out detailed explanations for each product — the goal is to offer a straightforward guide to the essentials you might need, allowing you to make your own decisions at your own pace.
Where I’ve included higher-end or “splurge” items, I’ve also provided budget-friendly alternatives to make sure there are options for every parent’s needs. For products where I either didn’t have a personal recommendation or didn’t use them myself, I’ve either left the recommended product out or added suggestions for things I now think would be helpful, though I haven’t yet tested them personally.
Feel free to adopt or adapt these suggestions as you see fit, knowing that everything here is something I found valuable in one way or another. Happy shopping, and best of luck on your baby journey!
This list is intended to get you through your baby’s first 3 months, and excludes maternity or postpartum needs.
