1.
A water bottle, particularly the lifefacotry glass bottle in the raspberry color. I always find myself so thirsty every time I sit down to nurse the babe and this bottle has been fantastic!
2.
Dark Chocolate covered espresso beans from Trader Joes. SO so yummy and so great if you don't have a time to make that morning cup of coffee. Also great as a pick-me-up through out the day. Another plus is that the kids (at least mine) won't ask for any! When they hear the pantry cupboard squeak and run over to see that Mama is eating coffee beans, they just wrinkle up their noses and go back about their businesses. And thankfully Xavier doesn't seem to be affected by chocolate or coffee.
3.
A good stack of books/magazines. I love to read and have tried to make sure I have some good reading material next to my bed and the rocker in the living room for when I'm nursing. I also try to keep some children's books handy because it's a great time to read to the littles.
4.
Nursing camisoles. I live in these the first couple months post-partum. They are fantastic, especially the Gilligan & O Malley ones from Target . They come in different styles and colors which is awesome. I wear them around the house and use them for layering when I'm out and about. Also great for bed to help keep nursing pads in place at night.
5.
Comfy Pj's. I went out and got a couple pairs of pj's to wear around the house after the baby was born. It was so nice to have something cute and comfy to wear right after giving birth. I found a couple shorts sets that I loved at Kohls that were nursing friendly.
So there you have it! Linking up with Mama Knows Honey Child for my first Five Favorites!
