Today, I’m joining some fabulous bloggers and sharing my mommy must haves.
I’ve already done a few post on my favorite items.
So, today I’m sharing the things that I cannot live without.
The things that get me through the day.
My mommy musts.
1. EOS Lip Balm
This is hands down my favorite lip balm.
I have on in the diaper bag, on my night stand, in my car and my office.
Whether breastfeeding or not, you have to drink a lot of water.
I’ve tried many water bottles and this one is my favorite.
I live in these tanks.
They’re cheap, comfortable and last forever.
They go perfectly with leggings.
I wash my hands more than ever before with a little one.
My hands started getting dry not long after AG was born.
This lotion keeps them feeling soft all day and smells delicious.
5. Lara Bars
One thing I need to work on is making time to eat.
I’m so busy most days trying to get through my to do list.
I finish one thing and move on to the next, often looking up at the clock realizing I didn’t eat lunch.
I always keep these bars with me.
They are my favorite on the go bars.
6. COFFEE.
I need it to start my day.
I look forward to my cup each morning.
I also have an obsession with coffee mugs.
I love these leggings from Target because they have a large band at the top.
They’re perfect for holding things in and slimming down that annoying pouch that most women have after baby is born.
These shirts are my favorite.
I bought them a few years ago and wished I would have bought more.
They were perfect for the early stages of pregnancy when I was hiding my bump.
They were perfect for the days of pregnancy when I felt blah.
They were especially perfect for after baby.
They hid the belly issues I had and made me feel normal.
When I saw they were back in the stores, I made sure to pick up one in every color.
They go perfectly with skinny jeans, jeggings and leggings.
One thing to add to this list:
Phone- pictures, apps to keep me entertained while nursing and talking to friends

Thank you Jillian for putting this together and thinking of me to join in on the fun!
My must have was the Kindle my husband bought for my birthday. I would say I got BEYOND my money's worth with that gift as I read book after book and became involved in the blogging world. Nursing takes so much time and it was such a nice device to keep me occupied while snuggling with my little one.
I need to try that hand cream – my hands have been SO dry this pregnancy! Love your list!
Great list! I need to get a water bottle to keep at my desk. Since I stopped breast feeding, I've not been as dilligent with my water intake. I need to refocus! Those target leggings sound great!
If I had to choose one mommy must have, it would be my iPad. In the beginning, I used a great app (BabyLog) to track feedings, diaper changes, sleep, etc. I used it to entertain myself while nursing, time feedings, take pictures – it was my saving grace.
LOVE everything on this list…couldn't agree more!
Great List Leah! I agree, we are definitely destined to be friends! I need to check out the shirts from Express and that lip balm! Thanks for sharing!!
I'm taking notes!! Love this post!
Love this list! Old Navy does seriously have the best tank tops – and they are the perfect length (especially after you get used to maternity tops – you can almost never go back to 'normal' length!). Will have to try that lip balm and the express tops, too! Thanks so much for sharing!! XO
Love this!! I love that Cashmere lotion, smells good too!! Thanks for sharing!
