Hi Kitty! Just wanted to let you know I'm so happy you somehow showed up in my recommended list on RUclips. I'm from the Netherlands and currently 25 weeks pregnant with my first, a baby girl, and I love your videos. I truly love your personality--you come across as such a genuine, down to earth, and kind-hearted person. When I watch your videos, it feels like a friend is talking to me, because it just feels so authentic and real (and because you seem to have the same sense of humor as I do 😁). Thank you for what you do! ♥️
i know sound machines are more aesthetically pleasing, but when it comes to white noise for baby i found that a fan worked best for us. just a plain fan from walmart, it created a steady noise for baby to sleep to plus it kept the room cool. not cold but cool, i found that baby slept better when the room was on the cooler side. so it was a win win
I have watched this video for the 1st time when I wasn't pregnant or had babies. Now, 3 years later, I am pregnant and back for the useful content. P.S.: I hope Harriet is doing great! 😀
Just letting other mommas know that Snuggle me organic or any kind of lounger is extremely unsafe for safe sleep. Baby has to be alone, on their back in a crib , bassinet or pnp. (According to AAP recommendations)
I love the squeal my baby makes when I hold him up and tip him side to side, like Joel does in the intro. My baby is 4 months old and I felt the same as you, I didn't want a ton of stuff. Excited to see what you recommend. I liked the k'tan too. It was the best. I'd love it if you could continue to do these every 4 months or so, if you could. Harriet is adorable!!
Love this. I'm trying to do the minimal with baby number 2. Baby 1 I was a pack rat and purchased unnecessary items and didn't use. Also 7 years later it's like starting over just because of all the new baby things there are out there. Thank you!
Please know that they say not to use the snuggle me organic as a co-sleeper. On their website it says that there are warnings against using it for that.
Rayna Selvage Thank you for saying that. so many frightening SIDS risks with these “cosleeping” devices!! Babies should always be on their backs on a firm surface in their own space near mom or dad. No fluffy blankets or bumper. I really enjoyed her video except the cosleep promotion!
6 months pp and it is so crazy how different my baby is but I definitely agree it is so important to watch a bunch of these so you know what to do no matter the occasion. I mean, you never feel ready; but you can at least have a starting off point :)
I am SO happy I found this video! I am beyond overwhelmed with building a baby registry. We're visiting a BuyBuy Baby next week to maybe help us get a better idea of what all we need but I feel this is even more helpful. We have very similar aesthetics (which is not common amongst the mom-vloggers on YT, I've found!). I just hit my second trimester so I've only just bought some maternity jeans and that's really it. I'm going to check out your other videos! (I really hope you have a nursery tour!) Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this video! My first is 4.5 months now and we've been super minimalist, but I think when we have our next we will spring for a bouncer or swing. We are loving the bum genius as well! For baby clothes we've got almost everything secondhand then a few new pieces from Burt's bees and Frugi. I've been loving following Harriet's updates, and I'm really happy to hear you'll have more kids! Harriet is such a doll!!
This is so helpful Kitty! Thank you so much! We're expecting our first child in July and this is a great starting point for us as we build our registry. Mpls represent! =)
Having number 6 in April/May and I feel like I’ve forgotten everything since my last birth 3 years ago... this was so helpful. Now to go find that little light egg!
I'm not pregnant or plan to be anytime soon, but holy cow this is still so useful. I will refer back to this video when I need it. I enjoy your videos. I binge watch your home update videos the other day. I always get inspired when I watch your videos. xx Kelly
Horrible having strangers touching your newborn baby - car seat cover is a must! Great tip about the kimono baby suits. Also love the dummy (easy to keep clean and biodegradable) and all the other things but these 3 stuck out to me. Thanks!
Hi! I just discovered your channel and I really love your energy. I’m a first time mom that’s currently 19 + 5 weeks pregnant and this video was really helpful for me in figuring out some of the things I needed to add to my registry. Btw your baby is adorable 🥰
Hello fellow Minnesotan! Great video! I'm 8 weeks along and have been watching so many videos. Your's has been by far the best, not only for the items you listed, but for your calm down to earth demeanor. Thank you!
I love this! we had people randomly get us clothes and baby gear and its all too flashy and crazy not what we were going for at all wish i saw this 4 months ago to have a better idea of what i needed.
Loved this video!! I’m due in December and was getting a list sorted out of what I truly need! I watched a couple videos and was like jeeze I’m going to need so much stuff!! Then I came across yours and made me feel better! This is much more simplistic and useful! Thank you!❤️
Thank you for sharing this. I am having my first and I think my lifestyle resembles yours in some ways so I really enjoy your videos. I am going to check out your suggestions when I am ready to purchase. I am planning to do things minimally as much as possible.
Loved this video, very helpful. I am having a baby girl this summer, and even though I have a 3 year old son, he was born in the middle of winter so I feel like I'm a brand new mom and don't know what to do lol. Also I have to mention that listening to your voice throughout the whole video, you sound identical to Anne Hathaway!! I'm sure you've had to have heard that before but I just thought that was cool lol.
DOCK-A-TOT, SNUGGLE ME, AND MOST OTHER LOUNGERS ARE NOT SLEEP SAFE AND CONTRIBUTE TO SIDS AND SUFFOCATING. THEY ARE NOT MEANT FOR UNSUPERVISED OR LONG-TERM USE
pictureperfect06 according to the AAP you're not. However, if she's like me and most other moms you do what works best for your family. For 3 months my child slept in one until we moved her to her crib. Never had an issue, and it helped us easily transition her from our bed to her own space. She's 5 months and no longer sleeps in it, but it was a life saver for us during the early months.
You are correct! If your baby is only ever sleeping in approved spaces you will not have a heard time with it because they don’t know there are other options. The snuggle me is not safe for sleep, and especially not safe as a cosleeper! The AAP has all the best info for safe sleep. I do not understand the risks some people will take.
Aside from all of the AWESOME suggestions (thank you!) - I wanted to say that I think it's INCREDIBLE that you donate extra breast milk! To be honest I have never ever heard of this and am so happy that I heard about it from you because I now know that I for sure want to do this if I have extra milk once my baby arrives. Thank you!!
LOVED THIS VIDEO! And all of your videos, lets be honest! Could you do a video on where you buy your babies clothes? I love her/your style! Currently 39 weeks pregnant and waiting on our little girl!
I just want to let other new moms know that the snuggle me is not a safe sleep space! Baby need to be in a crib, pack n play or bassinet, flat on their backs, with no other people or things like blankets, pillows or soft sides. If baby were to roll into the sides of a snuggle me they cannot breathe. Follow AAP guidelines for safe sleep to ensure the safety of your baby.
I'd love to see a video on transitioning back to work after mat leave. In the U.K. women can get up to a year mat leave so I'm interested in learning how you manage going back to work when the baby is still young. Also, tips on how to manage early pregnancy while working out of the home would be much appreciated! One of my biggest worries about getting pregnant is morning sickness on my commute! 🙀
I'm only 14, my mom is pregnant with baby #6, but she doesn't work. But my best friend's mom got to call her office and tell them she couldn't come in on the days it was really bad. In the beginning of my mom's pregnancy she couldn't even get out of bed, but *strong* and I mean *strong* ginger tea helped. Maybe you would get an on-the-go coffee cup and put some of that in it on the way. That's what my mom did if she had to go somewhere which was quite rarely though. I hope this helped somehow lol I know you probably wanted Kitty to respond or an actual mom but I just wanted to help a little bit :)
Hi I’m also from the uk and heard that America has no set maternity leave it’s one of the only developed countries in the world that doesn’t have one you can ask maternity leave from your employer or company most often they only say a month but sometimes right after birth women have to return to work which is sad
@@hamboogermember4232 Yes. Our maternity leave isn't great. We have 12 weeks of protected time off -meaning we legally cannot be fired within that time- but most of that time would be unpaid. In certain states you can apply for programs that will cover your pay for up to eight of those 12 weeks.
Where did your cloth diapering video go? You mention it in this video and I know I’ve seen it but wanted to share it with a friend and could not find it. Love your videos! Very helpful and like hearing your input :)
Hi Kitty! I just had my baby in November! A lot of these essentials rule. I had a question though, there is a really pretty mat you have around 9:35, do you know who makes it? It would be so pretty for my baby!
You can always tell the age of a video based on if they say the Snuggle Me can be used as a co-sleeper lol. Absolutely no judgement to you for it, I mean, obviously this was way before the statements were made about safety.
This was so helpful, thank you!!! I do have a question. I too am interested in the UppaBaby Vista. I love the white color, Bryce. It looks like that's the one you have. Curious, does it get dirty quick? Or show discoloration? I LOVE this classy white, I just dont want it to look dirty and then not classy anymore lol.
Did she have dogs: A Golden Retriever name Ellie, A White Cockapoo name Bubbles, A Boxer mix Pitbull name Libby, A Cane Corso name Dodger, She got 4 dogs?
Also, did you budget for the stroller or was that a registry item? I don't think anyone we know would fork out that much money for a stroller, maybe my parents? But I LOVE that stroller. I've already saved it as a favorite before I saw this video.
I seriously don't think it's worth it, just my opinion. You're not going to be using it long enough to justify spending that much money on it and I seriously doubt it's THAT much better than a lot of the *much, much, much* cheaper strollers. I don't see the difference at all. Maybe that's just me though, I don't know, but I know I sure as hell couldn't afford a stroller like that and even if I could I'd never spend that much on one. I mean, what exactly does it do or what qualities does it have that other strollers don't? I don't quite get why it's that expensive. :/
Hi! First of all I love this video and have been a fan of your other videos! They have really helped! I wanted to ask you did you buy a bassinet for her or does she just go sleep in your bed on the snuggle me organic?
Kitty, do people tell you you sound like Zoe Deschanel? If I close my eyes I feel like I’m listening to Zoe! Ha. Now I’m wondering if you can sing like her!
This is such a thoughtful video, thank you for sharing. Do you find that a crib is a necessity? When did she start using it or if not yet, when do you think she will?
Terasaur 13 haha that’s my biggest purchasing regret. She did nap in there a few times but doesn’t sleep there. I think a nursery is a big unnecessary for the first few months but I enjoyed the process of creating it while pregnant so I’m still happy we did it! All you really need is a place to change your baby (doesn’t eve have to be a dedicated changing table), a rocket/glider and place to store clothes, diapers, etc. everything else is just a pretty bonus!
K T what?! So people get everyone else to buy things they’ve ‘registered’ for for the baby? That’s wild! We get gifts here but you don’t ask for things.. sometimes people will say ‘is there anything you don’t have yet, or need?’ 😂🙈 it’s crazy how different things can be! Xxxx
@@tashatomkinson3674 yup! I guess it makes sense if you know people are going to buy stuff, you might as well get stuff you need and want. But I just hate the idea of it cos it seems like you expect gifts, even though it's not always like that. I've got some American friends who have announced their pregnancies on social media and included a link to the registry!
K T oh god I can’t imagine that 😂 I’d make the most of it though! Plus in the uk it’s free for us to have a baby in the sense of having the NHS! so we’re very lucky in that sense! I’m not entirely sure how it works in America xx
@@tashatomkinson3674 I think the worst thing in America is the lack of maternity pay. I think you get like 2 weeks of time off with statutory pay, it's crazy!
This could not have come at a better time! I was just looking through your instagram today to see what baby items you found essential. I know you said you went back to work and are cloth diapering. What are your tips on cloth diapering and getting your care giver on board with the process? We are hoping to use pocket diapers when baby is big enough. Baby will be going to day care or a sitter around 3 months. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Love your content!
osugradgirl2011 our daycare lady is really easy going and used to cloth diaper her kids. When I showed her our she was so impressed with how easy they are! I have two larger wet bags that I bring her, along with the diapers each week. I try to take the diapers home mid week and end of week. Sometimes I forget and just get them all Friday to wash. We also brought a box of disposable as backups. Works really well for us for the past few months! I’ll make a cloth diaper video update especially now that she’s on solids!
The difference between snuggleme and babynests, is that a baby can sleep in a baby nest unattended if the fabric is breathable which most of them are. A baby can’t sleep without supervisiom in a snuggleme .. too risky.
I have a snuggle me organic for supervised sleep but I just wanted to mention in case anyone viewing this is unaware (She does mention in the description that the company does not recommend for unsupervised sleep) but they are extremely unsafe for co-sleeping as they are a serious suffocation risk. Everyone can do as they please of course but there have been many cases of infant deaths due to loungers/sleepers/swings being used for unsupervised sleep. Absolutely no hate towards this channel at all I just wanted to provide info that I was grateful to have heard before I used it for unsupervised sleep.

it's so nice to see someone finally just telling you the essentials rather than a whole bunch of expensive and unnecessary things. thank you!!

I have watched this video for the 1st time when I wasn't pregnant or had babies. Now, 3 years later, I am pregnant and back for the useful content.
P.S.: I hope Harriet is doing great! 😀
Thank you for being calm and realistic lol. It's hard to find bloggers who aren't overly hyper and excited.
Precisely why I left the last video! Over excitement SCREAMS anxiety; the energy is just too erratic.
What’s wrong with being excited about the things that make your life easier with your newborn...
@@chanellemoore4881 the problem is in the watchers
Haha I agree. Like the ones who every 5 second says, “I got this because it’s sooo cute” 😅.
Chanelle Moore this is way later lol but I think the watchers get anxiety from the hyperactivity. But the calmness of her is a nice change ❤️
Just letting other mommas know that Snuggle me organic or any kind of lounger is extremely unsafe for safe sleep. Baby has to be alone, on their back in a crib , bassinet or pnp. (According to AAP recommendations)
Yes, came here to say this. Definitely don't let your baby sleep in it overnight or unattended
I love the squeal my baby makes when I hold him up and tip him side to side, like Joel does in the intro. My baby is 4 months old and I felt the same as you, I didn't want a ton of stuff.

As someone who works at a medical examiner's office these co-sleepers terrify me! I do see she put under the description under supervision only.
6 months pp and it is so crazy how different my baby is but I definitely agree it is so important to watch a bunch of these so you know what to do no matter the occasion. I mean, you never feel ready; but you can at least have a starting off point :)
Sydney Kate Jones totally agree! What works for me might not work for others! All about finding what works for your baby, lifestyle and budget!
The one piece pacifier is such a good tip! I’ve watched so many newborn essential RUclips videos and no one has mentioned that. Good idea! Thanks
I am SO happy I found this video! I am beyond overwhelmed with building a baby registry. We're visiting a BuyBuy Baby next week to maybe help us get a better idea of what all we need but I feel this is even more helpful.

You can also use that Copper Pearl car seat cover as a nursing cover up as well for breastfeeding!
I am using Defono car seat cover as a nursing cover up as well for breastfeeding. It is very cheap and breathable. I like it very much
Thank you for this video! My first is 4.5 months now and we've been super minimalist, but I think when we have our next we will spring for a bouncer or swing. We are loving the bum genius as well! For baby clothes we've got almost everything secondhand then a few new pieces from Burt's bees and Frugi. I've been loving following Harriet's updates, and I'm really happy to hear you'll have more kids! Harriet is such a doll!!
Me: she sounds really midwestern--
Kitty: ...here in Minnesota...
Me: *subscribes*
SAME! I was thinking to myself, wow she seems like someone I would actually be friends with. and then she said "here in Minnesota"!
You remind me of Zooey Deschanel!
i was thinking the same thing. i had to do a double take!!
yupp. came to the comments to see if anyone wrote it lol
You are awesome! Finally a mom and channel I can relate to! I really gel with you. You are so practical and sweet! 😁
This is so helpful Kitty! Thank you so much! We're expecting our first child in July and this is a great starting point for us as we build our registry. Mpls represent! =)
Having number 6 in April/May and I feel like I’ve forgotten everything since my last birth 3 years ago... this was so helpful. Now to go find that little light egg!

She reminds me of a Disney princess lol her laugh and soft voice & her face
Horrible having strangers touching your newborn baby - car seat cover is a must! Great tip about the kimono baby suits. Also love the dummy (easy to keep clean and biodegradable) and all the other things but these 3 stuck out to me. Thanks!

This vid was extremely helpful. I'm glad you went into so much detail. Thank you!!
I love this! we had people randomly get us clothes and baby gear and its all too flashy and crazy not what we were going for at all wish i saw this 4 months ago to have a better idea of what i needed.
Loved this video!! I’m due in December and was getting a list sorted out of what I truly need! I watched a couple videos and was like jeeze I’m going to need so much stuff!! Then I came across yours and made me feel better! This is much more simplistic and useful! Thank you!❤️
This was so helpful and informative. Thank you for helping me as I am making my baby registry right now :)
I’m due in 2 weeks and 95% of the baby stuff I got is matching yours:)

Completely right. LO has suffered this. After that, I put a sense-u baby monitor to track the baby's breath and the sleep position. It helps me a lot.
I loved this! Thank you! So helpful and your voice is so angelic 😇
I was so relaxed watching this whole video lol, due in 87 days!!!
Nicole Nguyen assuming they’ve made their arrival, congrats on your little one! 🎈
My due date is 70 days away and it feels like forever
Thank you! I live in phx, totally going to consider getting one of those little fans.
I thought you're not supposed to let the baby sleep in the snuggle me? Correct me if I'm wrong
pictureperfect06 according to the AAP you're not. However, if she's like me and most other moms you do what works best for your family. For 3 months my child slept in one until we moved her to her crib. Never had an issue, and it helped us easily transition her from our bed to her own space.

Really enjoyed watching this and all your tips about why you liked the different products were so, so useful. New subscriber🥰
If you register for gift cards you can stretch your registry to like a year
How come I don’t see the shopping list?
you remind of zooey deschanel 💕

Did you do the breastfeeding video? I can't find it 😥 I'm 7 weeks pregnant now, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can!
Loved this! Thank so much 💕
Wow I got katan wrap and was pleasantly surprised you recommend it too:) I couldn’t find the «beach» blanket anywhere in the lists you recommended
Lisa Romero that's what I have is the Baby Katan but idk how to use it.😟
My goodness, how cute and chubby can a baby be!!!
Be careful with car seat covers in the summer because they can raise the temperature inside the car seat by 20 degrees
Where did your cloth diapering video go? You mention it in this video and I know I’ve seen it but wanted to share it with a friend and could not find it.
Love your videos! Very helpful and like hearing your input :)
Where is the mat she is laying on (with the trees and the mountains in the bodysuit section) from? Great video! Thank you!
Hi Kitty!
I just had my baby in November! A lot of these essentials rule. I had a question though, there is a really pretty mat you have around 9:35, do you know who makes it? It would be so pretty for my baby!
I love your crib!! Do you know where you purchased ?
I love your videos 🤍 could you please link the moon nightlight from Amazon?
Hi, sorry to bother you, but you're link for the thermoter is the same link as the night light.
You can always tell the age of a video based on if they say the Snuggle Me can be used as a co-sleeper lol. Absolutely no judgement to you for it, I mean, obviously this was way before the statements were made about safety.
Video starts at 2:20 🥰
OMG she is so cute!!
Aww your baby is beautiful 😍
I really dig the book shelf you have in the video (the wood one). Where did you get it?
Hi. Love your video. What is the blanket she's laying on at 9:38? I love it! 😍
Did you like the solly baby wrap better than the katan wrap? I cant decide. im a new subscriber btw! im loving your videos!
What color way is that red Sakura Bloom sling??? 😍
This was so helpful, thank you!!!
I do have a question. I too am interested in the UppaBaby Vista. I love the white color, Bryce. It looks like that's the one you have. Curious, does it get dirty quick? Or show discoloration? I LOVE this classy white, I just dont want it to look dirty and then not classy anymore lol.
Did she have dogs:
A Golden Retriever name Ellie,
A White Cockapoo name Bubbles,
A Boxer mix Pitbull name Libby,

She got 4 dogs?
How do you feel about the white ? That’s the color I want to get but not sure if it’s something easy to get dirty

Hi! First of all I love this video and have been a fan of your other videos! They have really helped! I wanted to ask you did you buy a bassinet for her or does she just go sleep in your bed on the snuggle me organic?
You can put a plastic laundry basket in the bathtub to make it more "baby sized"!
Kitty, do people tell you you sound like Zoe Deschanel? If I close my eyes I feel like I’m listening to Zoe! Ha. Now I’m wondering if you can sing like her!
How long have you been using your bumgenius diapers? How are they holding up?
I wish the sound quality was better. I had my speakers nearly at max volume.
Where is the sock monkey from please I need it!
Where did you get that adorable hat!!
How long were you able to use snuggle me for baby? I have heard babies outgrow really fast.
Where is that cute blanket at 9:33 from ?
This is such a thoughtful video, thank you for sharing.
Do you find that a crib is a necessity? When did she start using it or if not yet, when do you think she will?
Terasaur 13 haha that’s my biggest purchasing regret. She did nap in there a few times but doesn’t sleep there. I think a nursery is a big unnecessary for the first few months but I enjoyed the process of creating it while pregnant so I’m still happy we did it! All you really need is a place to change your baby (doesn’t eve have to be a dedicated changing table), a rocket/glider and place to store clothes, diapers, etc. everything else is just a pretty bonus!
What on Earth is ‘registering for?’ We don’t have this right in uk...
It's like a wedding gift list. But for a baby! It's crazy. Consumerism is alive and well in the Capitalist dystopia of the USA!
K T what?! So people get everyone else to buy things they’ve ‘registered’ for for the baby? That’s wild! We get gifts here but you don’t ask for things.. sometimes people will say ‘is there anything you don’t have yet, or need?’
😂🙈 it’s crazy how different things can be! Xxxx
@@tashatomkinson3674 yup! I guess it makes sense if you know people are going to buy stuff, you might as well get stuff you need and want. But I just hate the idea of it cos it seems like you expect gifts, even though it's not always like that. I've got some American friends who have announced their pregnancies on social media and included a link to the registry!
K T oh god I can’t imagine that 😂 I’d make the most of it though! Plus in the uk it’s free for us to have a baby in the sense of having the NHS! so we’re very lucky in that sense! I’m not entirely sure how it works in America xx
@@tashatomkinson3674 I think the worst thing in America is the lack of maternity pay. I think you get like 2 weeks of time off with statutory pay, it's crazy!
Yassssssssss thank you 🙏
Where did you bought please
Super cute!! I loved that you showed your adorable baby too - that was a cute touch. Great tips!
Also Also! We're vegan as well, so I'm thrilled to stumble across your channel
This could not have come at a better time! I was just looking through your instagram today to see what baby items you found essential. I know you said you went back to work and are cloth diapering. What are your tips on cloth diapering and getting your care giver on board with the process? We are hoping to use pocket diapers when baby is big enough. Baby will be going to day care or a sitter around 3 months. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Love your content!
osugradgirl2011 our daycare lady is really easy going and used to cloth diaper her kids. When I showed her our she was so impressed with how easy they are! I have two larger wet bags that I bring her, along with the diapers each week. I try to take the diapers home mid week and end of week. Sometimes I forget and just get them all Friday to wash. We also brought a box of disposable as backups. Works really well for us for the past few months! I’ll make a cloth diaper video update especially now that she’s on solids!
@@kittycotten Thank you!
Is the snuggle me breathable or safe
Not unsupervised no
Are you ever going to go fulltime on RUclips? ❤
The difference between snuggleme and babynests, is that a baby can sleep in a baby nest unattended if the fabric is breathable which most of them are. A baby can’t sleep without supervisiom in a snuggleme .. too risky.
Kitty Cotten do you have 4 dogs and the newborn baby in your house
Kitty Cotten MY WIFE JUST A NEWBORN BABY GIRL NAMED KATE
Wow you are so beautiful! All I see is Zooey Deschanel
This is great! I'm preping for my first and the lists online are so overwhelming.
You look like Zooey Deschanel :D
Auto Rock-n-Play HAS BEEN RECALLED?! Why has it been recalled? lol
positional asphixation risk
I have a snuggle me organic for supervised sleep but I just wanted to mention in case anyone viewing this is unaware (She does mention in the description that the company does not recommend for unsupervised sleep) but they are extremely unsafe for co-sleeping as they are a serious suffocation risk. Everyone can do as they please of course but there have been many cases of infant deaths due to loungers/sleepers/swings being used for unsupervised sleep. Absolutely no hate towards this channel at all I just wanted to provide info that I was grateful to have heard before I used it for unsupervised sleep.
