Value (i.e. multiple functions or longevity of use)
Durability
Quality (i.e. proven brands)
Crib:
- Against Wall: Graco Hadley 4-in-1 Convertible Crib with Drawer, White (Amazon)

5. Bath Towels: Carter's Baby 8-Piece Towel and Washcloth Set (Amazon)
7. Car Seat/ Stroller/ Bassinette: Uppababy Options (Amazon)

14. Pacifier: Wubbanub pacifiers (Amazon) I don’t know what I would’ve done without this item – it is the only Pacifier our baby would take.
15. Thermometer: iHealth No-Touch Forehead Thermometer (Amazon) Wow! It is so easy to take the baby's temperature with this digital thermometer.
16. Bibs
17. Burp Cloths: Muslin Burp Cloths (Amazon)
18. Baby Milk Formula (If needed): Similac (Amazon) or Enfamil (Amazon) You will be following your hospital and doctor instructions but I recommend you do not buy your formula in bulk in the very beginning. Buy a smaller amount and make sure your baby takes it before buying larger quantities.

20. Newborn Lounger Pillow: Boppy Original Newborn Lounger (Amazon)
21. Diaper Rash lotions: Aquaphor Baby Healing Ointment (Amazon)

23. Baby Monitor: Baby Monitor by Vava (Amazon)
24. Diaper Bag: Backpack Diaper Bag (Amazon)
25. Baby Soap/ Shampoo / Lotion The Honest Company 2Piece Set (Amazon)
Baby Registry
The only baby registry I enrolled in was with Amazon. At a certain date before the baby due date, Amazon gives you a 20% discount on all remaining items that were not purchased - up to a certain dollar amount. For me, I was able to save $200!
The best baby products really depends on the needs of your baby. This list of the "25 Baby Essentials in the First 100 Days" is based on my personal experience and what we prepared before the baby arrived. Happy shopping!
