The wrap and carrier have been back-saving and sanity-saving.</p> <p>MamaRoo - We didn't get one until she was already 8 weeks old. I thought they were a waste of money until we realized that our LO did not like her swing (which was gifted to us) and I reeeeally wanted to put her down in something for longer than 2 minutes without her crying. We tried a friend's MamaRoo and LO was sleeping in it in minutes. After a bad night of rocking her in my arms, I made Hubs go buy one. When we brought it home, she proceeded to fall asleep within a minute and a half of being in it.</p> <p>A&amp;A Bamboo Swaddle Blankets - I thought a blanket was a blanket until someone gave us these. So soft! Yesterday when LO had a poop-blowout while we were out and had to have her clothes removed, I fashioned a toga out of one of these trusty blankets in order to get her home. Because they're so big and soft, it was easy to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1132126 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 12:47:04 +0000 mediagirl 1132126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The white noise machine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1132115 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 12:40:58 +0000 Freckles 1132115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: I can't believe you got it at 9 months. I got ours at 3 months and i thought we waited too long!! Video monitor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131931 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 11:26:49 +0000 cascademom 1131931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: We have this sound machine, a few of them in fact. I left the Sleep Sheep at home when I visited my parents at 8 weeks old. I ran to Target and found this. Best thing ever. LO likes to play with it now.</p> <p>Best gear: My Brest Friend pillow, sound machine, video monitor, A&amp;A blankets, flannel burp cloths, and newborn kimono tops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131842 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 11:03:15 +0000 lawbee11 1131842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Foscam fo sho </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131688 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 10:17:31 +0000 heartonastring 1131688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Snuggabunny swing</p> <p>Marpac Dohm white noise machine</p> <p>Beco Butterfly 2 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131681 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 10:13:20 +0000 Bunches 1131681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a 5 yo girl and 3yo twin boys and they all still sleep with their angel dear loveys! They each have 3 that I rotate for home, daycare and washing. They are still a MUST in our home several years later... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131616 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 09:49:27 +0000 Foodnerd81 1131616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of things I love and *need* but I think maybe the Moby is number 1. She hated the car seat and stroller in the beginning (and still isn't a big fan at 9 weeks) but the Moby would settle her right down when we got outside. I didn't expect to really use it but borrowed one from a friend, thank god. It enables me to go places and get things done, and more often then not she will snooze in it if I walk long enough. </p> <p>Honorable mention to the video monitor (can't believe people can live without one), RnP, and sound machine-- we just have a basic one but it does the job. We are visiting my sister next weekend and all of these items are coming with us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131589 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 09:42:59 +0000 skipra 1131589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can I say my boobs? I don't know what we would've done if I wasn't able to breastfeed. Aside from that, definitely the Boppy in the early days and the video monitor once we put him in his own room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131551 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 09:29:56 +0000 swurlygurl 1131551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Video monitor for sure. We even used it when we were traveling and her pack n play was right next to our bed! :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131385 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 08:41:47 +0000 mamabolt 1131385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Beco Gemini and miracle blanket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131369 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 08:36:33 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1131369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the first 6 months - The Boppy pillow and my Medela Freestyle. </p> <p>After that - Our stroller and ergo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love/page/2#post-1131361 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 08:35:02 +0000 Grace 1131361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The ergo.

We have the snugamonkey but any one would do. It was where he slept, hung out when we we needed our hands free, super portable when going to other's homes, total lifesaver!</p> <p>Honorable mention to our whole diaper changing setup, which consisted of a waterproof changing pad on top of his dresser, a wipes warmer, and a diaper genie. Yes, things other may consider to be unnecessary, but it made things so simple and easy for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-one-piece-of-baby-gear-diddo-you-just-love#post-1130227 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:42:47 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1130227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: do it!

I call it her iPod. </p> <p>My Boba carrier &amp; ring sling...otherwise I would've never left the house early on cause she hated her car seat. She also loves her Sophie. </p>
