There is a 6 year gap between our two kids, so we really were starting over with Edie. We had moved a couple times and gotten rid of most of our baby stuff because we’ve had very limited storage. When we started buying gear again I was so pleasantly surprised at how much things had improved in the world of baby gear that make my life so much easier! Bowls that suction to the counter! Food pouches for feeding on the go! Swivel carseats! Baby shoes that don’t fall off! Sleek diaper pails that hold a lot and don’t stink!

So today I’m partnering with Munchkin and their Arm & Hammer Diaper Pail to talk about some favorite baby gear inventions I’ve found since Henry.

Keep reading to see my favorites and more about Munchkin’s fantastic diaper pail…

This Munchkin Arm & Hammer diaper pail isn’t just one of my favorite items, it gets top ratings for diaper pails by other parents in surveys as well. The bags are inexpensive, easy to pull out, and it gives a little sprinkle of Arm and Hammer baking powder every time you close the lid. I love how sleek the design is too which I really appreciate when decorating a nursery.

Here are a few more favorites in the world of baby gear that have made my life so much easier as a mom the second time around. I’d love to hear your favorites as well!

1. Butt paste for diaper rashes 2. Nose Frida for little stuffed noses3. Food Pouches for easy/no mess on the go food 4. Munchkin Arm & Hammer Diaper Pail for sleek, no stink diaper disposal 5. Munchkin suction bowl for no mess self-feeding (we use these every meal)6. Ergo 360 for baby wearing in every position7.
