While love is the most important thing you can give a baby, it takes a bit more than that to help a tiny human thrive. Thankfully, modern moms have the internet — a magical place where you can find everything from parenting forums to Pinterest posts on childproofing your kitchen cabinets. However, sometimes a mama just wants to know exactly what products will make her oh-so-exhausting (but worth it!) life with baby easier.
The internet certainly offers no shortage of information on that front, but that can actually make you feel more lost. How do you choose when there are so many sites touting myriad miracle items? You find out what other moms are doing, that’s how.
Since celebrities often have a beat on what’s new and trendy, we unearthed some of their top picks. So, when you need guidance narrowing down your shopping list, check out what 10 products Hollywood moms swear by.
Bridget Moynahan
When Bridget Moynahan's son John was a baby, she had a secret weapon for fighting diaper rash. "Nobody knows about Butt Paste, but I love it. Only moms know! It works!" she told PopSugar.
Khloé Kardashian
New mama Khloé Kardashian revealed via her website and lifestyle app in June that she doesn't produce quite enough milk to solely breastfeed baby True, and she relies on the Baby Brezzo formula mixer to make supplementing easier.
"Technically I don’t need something like this because I breastfeed, but because I don’t produce enough milk, I also have to give a bottle with every feeding," Kardashian wrote. "And with the formula I use, I have to give True the bottle within 30 minutes of making it, so it’s amazing to have this machine make it for me."
Jaime King
Former Hart of Dixie star Jaime King had a handful of must-have products when her sons James Knight and Leo Thame were infants. Like, for one, the Nuna high chair. "I love that it grows with the baby, from a high chair to a regular chair to a seat. I can’t stand waste!" she told People. King also cited the Jumparoo, the BabyBjorn BabySitter, the Momaroo, the Oeuf Sparrow crib and Aden + Anais organic sheets as go-tos.
Chrissy Teigen
"Luna's always had really sensitive skin," Chrissy Teigen told Slice of her daughter with John Legend. "We were looking for diapers that would be good for her skin, dye-free, fragrance-free, lotion-free and we noticed that the protection never held us."
Ultimately, the couple opted for Pampers and Pampers Pure, praising the brand for its aesthetics, protection and trustworthiness. "For us, that was really important and honestly, we've always been a Pampers family. I was a Pampers kid, John was a Pampers boy, Luna from the second she was born, in the hospital, had little newborn Pampers," Teigen said.
Jenna Dewan
Morning can be notoriously tricky with little ones, which is why Jenna Dewan swears by her daughter Everly's SleepHero — a toylike device that turns green when it's time for kids to wake up.
"I'll go in when it's still red and let her know that I'm about to take a shower and I'll be coming back in her room in a little bit," Dewan told BestProducts, adding, "She can relax in bed until the little light turns green. After that, I honestly have no clue what I'll come back to. She goes right into her closet. When I come back, I always find her outfit to be the cutest thing ever. I love it."
Jessica Alba
Mom of three Jessica Alba is a big believer in the Orbit stroller, which she professes to be her favorite. "It's a hybrid stroller that looks like half an egg," she explained to Fit Pregnancy. "You can use it as a car seat and a stroller so you never have to take the baby out of it. Then when the baby gets bigger, you can put a toddler seat in so it's really practical. It's also eco-friendly so that's another nice thing."
Rosie Pope
Maternity maven (and mom of four) Rosie Pope undoubtedly has tons of top picks for new parenting products. However, she shared a practical one with PopSugar that's perfect for any mom who travels.
"Medela steam bags. They're great on the airplane! Overseas flights are long enough that you need to sterilize," she said.
Sara Haines
As a mother of two, new Good Morning America cohost Sara Haines knows the importance of keeping track of all that tiny baby stuff. It's no wonder she swears by the Lil' Sidekick, a versatile tether that attaches to strollers, car seats, high chairs or anywhere else you need it.
"This is my change-your-life product — every mom has to have it!! It helped me survive," she gushed to her co-workers at GMA.
Whitney Port
Whitney Port would rather be safe than sorry when it comes to son Sonny's skin. "I absolutely love using WaterWipes on my baby," the fashion designer told BestProducts. "The ingredients are simple, and I use them for everything, whether I'm cleaning my baby or wiping up a spill. So, I basically use them all the time!"
Lisa Rinna
Her girls may be grown up now, but Real Housewives' Lisa Rinna remembers the days they were little like they were yesterday. And back then, she often relied on Rescue Remedy to soothe her daughters. "A couple of drops calms them right down," she shared with Slice.
