Newborn Must Haves! What you ACTUALLY need! 

*UPDATE* DockATot has updated their safety regulations and no longer recommend using it for co-sleeping. Honestly..... it was amazing for us 🙈 so this is very unfortunate news to not be able to safely recommend this. BUT we easily transitioned him to his crib by 2 or 3 months so whatever sleep situation you choose, please be safe and read the safety guidelines.

Father to Twin newborns here. I love watching your videos, esp watching a fellow black father give out advice. Plus my wife gets a kick out of me watching your vids. THANK YOU

I just love how involved Royce is. You both are great! Please post more videos! Best to you both!

Finally a baby video where the dad is involved!!

Is it just me or does Royce look like Sinbad

I love watching these videos because my baby is now 19 and I kind of think about the fact that I had none of these things available lol… it’s crazy to see how far baby things have come from my days lol I love seeing all the things I can buy for my new mama friends..

32 weeks pregnant and this has been the most helpful channel ive seen

I'm not a parent, but I can't understand why anyone would ever swaddle manually when there's a velcro option. The only reason I even tie my shoes is because they don't make adult shoes with velcro.

Came to the comments to say, “wow, he looks like Sinbad” and then I read a comment saying that he’s Sinbad son.

Pacifiers are great and reduce the risk of SIDS while baby is sleeping! Thanks for sharing that they are a good thing!

I just wanted to comment and say neither the snuggle me nor the dock a tot are safe for bed sharing and on the dock a tot website they say that they don't promote bedsharing!

These comments about sleepsharing and people shaming yall are annoying me, im pregnant with my first and just seeing people say that its a hazard to sleep with your baby or be close like that upsets me. I have seen and heard first hand that sometimes thats all that works!! Stop parent shaming, im sure y'all know what youre doing

Love how supportive and involved ur husband is!

Those velcro swaddles are AMAZING. Game changer for real! I buy them for every baby shower I go to. Our baby would break out and wake himself up out of everything else we tried. Plus, it gives you the option of swaddling their chest but not arms which was really nice when we were transitioning out of swaddling.

I definitely agree with a lot of these! My daughter had hip dysplasia, so we found the best sleep sack was the Halo Sleep sack. It left space for the harness she had to wear 24/7. I had so many swaddles that I never used because she'd wiggle out of them and it was hard to wrap around the harness. The sacks were definitely a life changer.

Just told our parents we’re expecting after going to our first OB appointment yesterday. Loving your videos! You guys seems like such a great couple and so open about things you experienced! It really helps since I don’t have people around me that have been through things.

I just wanna sayy, its so crazy that I’ve been searching up newborn must haves these last few days and you come with a video. Lets gooo

I'm almost 32 weeks and watching this brought me so much comfort! I feel like I was just chillin and talking with my new parent friends 😄 I love your energy ❤

This was a great list! I just have to say that you guys have such a beautiful connection and Jaylen has such loving parents. I love you guys and I'd love to see a daddy update from Royce!!!

I just found you guys and I'm really loving your content! I had my husband watch Royce's video to fathers and he loved it. I'm 7 weeks pregnant and I'm just soaking up as much information as I can!

Love my Hatch Sound Machine! Looking forward to setting it up for "ok to wake up" time when my little one is older. (It will be programmed to turn green at a certain time which will give her the ok to leave the room and bug her parents 😂)

You guys have such an awesome, easy going energy. Thanks for this

I’m a new watcher but i already love the chemistry you guys have. The love is so real! And I’ve been laughing the entire video :). Please keep the videos coming. This helped me so much! I bombed on so many things with my first! Now that #2 is almost here I’m taking notes 📝 🤣

Ive been looking for a changing table and this one looks perfect!!! Im so glad I watched this video

I love both of their personalities so much

Baby is 4 weeks so helpful ! Also Royce praying for you your dads swift recovery

I love your videos . I feel is the right way to give advices for new first baby born because both are in the same experience . You are a amazing couple and parents thank you for share your experiences with us.

You guys are my favorite. Laughing and learning while watching!

Love the leopard print theme between the present and flashback clip❤

I like that you make these videos for new parents

You two have the only videos I like. The man's perspective as well haha. Thank you. I have 4 weeks to go. Yikes.

Tubby Todd ointment is the TRUTH!!!🙌🏾

Honestly after doing a ton of research I have come to the conclusion that almost any way a baby sleeps is definitely going to kill it. 🙄 Obviously that's an exaggeration but all the research seems to conflict. So I just hope parents use common sense and do what works for them and their baby. My baby sleeps on his side at his pediatrician's recommendation. 👍🏼

I looked into a sound machine for our newborn but then we found a calming Playlist on Spotify. We play it every night on our echo dot and our baby falls asleep within 15 minutes. So if you have an extra Bluetooth player you're not using, look into using that instead to save some money. Also we LOVE the velcro swaddle. We can't blanket swaddle to save our lives so that is such a great buy.

Good looking out y’all thanks for the heads up

Thanks!!! Baby is 2 days old and although we have a 4 year ... We forgot alot ... Struggling a bit. I like your funny banter between the two of you.

Thank for the information! I like how your husband involved all about baby!

. The Deluxe+ dock is the ideal spot for babies for supervised lounging, playing, cuddling, diaper changes and tummy time.

This was such a cute video ! So much nostalgia, and similar items that i used like the Bathtub i love that tub and the Mustela i still use 😍😍😍😍

You are right about the song machine. I wish I woukd have just bought one bc using RU-vid can be annoying especially with ads and all

Love this video! Very helpful y'all give me baby fever everytime I see Jalen too cute!

I loved the “my Brest friend “ nursing pillow.

The 4 moms bassinet is not low it’s actually very tall but you can adjust it to make it shorter if you need it like I do because I’m only 5 foot tall. Also the 4 moms bathtub is amazing 🤩

Super helpful video, can't wait for the things your regret buying one! Also, can we take a moment to admire Bianca's LENGTH! Curlsmith hair growth for the win! 😆

Love this!! Thank you for this video, new mom here soon, so this is very helpful!

I am 16 Weeks+4 Days and my Due day is 21th June 2021! I am so nervous! Thanks for your help

I agree with Dr Brown pacifier 👍🏾👍🏾 yes Velcro swaddle!! Great video!

Scent natural flow great too

Very helpful video, thank you!! 🙏🏽😁

That shirt is making those curls POP!!! 😍

Hi guys, this is so cool. God bless you for all that you do 😍

i’m 30 weeks pregnant and 20 yrs old i just started stressing about not knowing what to do and ur videos have given me such relief! def subscribed :)

Your vídeos are so helpful thanks 🙏🏼 getting ready my baby is due july 2021😊

Thanks! I’m making my registry while watching this !!

Love you guys and Jalen is so cute!! My son is now 11 but swaddling was life!! Velcro would have been easy!

Changing pad from ikea you can literally take it anywhere and when my baby poops it's soooo easy to change him

Love your family so much!! Can you please talk about sleep training

These videos are helpful, my hubby actually likes listening to you lol

I love Velcro swaddles 😂😂😂my child nvr took a pacifier, I never used the sound thing tho couldn’t afford it n burp clothes are a must I was the problem with co sleeping I juss needed to cuddle my bbyonsies with zippers are a life saver

Tubby Todd is even great for adults too! I use it for my eczema!

Please keep making these videos I am a new mom and these videos help alot for me and my boyfriend💕

Another great informative video!

New subscriber alert!!! Love all the way from Kenya-Africa.

Doc a tots actually aren’t safe for sleep, it says that on their website, a good alternative if you’re set on co-sleeping would be a co-sleep bassinet

Sb: just so happened upon 3 of your videos and i think i love you lol. So helpful on this journey

You are so smart OMG!

You should make an updated video with baby number 2!! 💕

So cool to see another person named Royce. My brother has that name and I’ve never seen another person who has it.

You said Alexa and my Alexa started trying to listen. Thanks for the tips!

Just what I needed

Jalen is the cutest baby 🥰

Hello! I might’ve missed this or it wasn’t actually mentioned but would you have any suggestions for a bassinet?

Not even a mom yet but I loved this video❤

Good info!

I really like your video 😂🤍 . . You’re super great . . The pacifier is my always number 1 life saver 😩

The pacifier can be a blessing or a curse. For me it was the later, because, whenever the pacifier fell out while my twins were asleep. They would cry and I would have to wake up to put it back in; for both babies ALL the time. So I just got rid of them eventually. Not the babies, the pacifier. Lol

Y’all are soooo cute!!

The doc a tot had to update if they wanted their loungers sold in the us because aap is extremely strict with sleep products its approved for sleep in uk and has past tests for breathability unlike most loungers. I got the doc for co sleeping and will use it in my bed as well. I have used mamaroo with infants before and some love it some dont like you said. I plan to get it and try my luck cuz if they do it can be great. I also got comotomo this time with other kids I used dr browns and munchkin latch but latch nipples always collapsed and dr browns are a headache to clean hoping these work for the occasional bottle when I need to sleep (will be nursing as well) I can see why youd like the doubble zipper pjs cuz the single zipper ones can be a real headache cuz you gotta basically undress baby entirely and the pjs today are so fitted for fire safety that it's like squeezing their legs in and out I decided to try snaps which I may regret with my older 2 I believe we used snaps and snapped a couple and left a couple unsnapped lol but I also got the tie gowns hoping my baby will like those 😂😂 the velcro swaddles I will probably get because like you said wrapping up baby multiple times a day is a pain in the butt but my babies didnt like the tightness of the velcro swaddles so ended up not swaddling at all really but maybe this one will tolerate it who knows this is baby 3 for us and all babies are really different and like different things.

Did you use a bottle warmer for your Comotomo bottles? If so, which warmer did you use?

You both are awesome

Can't let them sleep in the DockATot either. There have been DockATot deaths but none Snuggle Me. Hopefully there won't be.

Hi! May I ask what is the name of the color of your snuggle me cover? Thanks!

Thank you for the video ♡ Can you do a day in my life

Everyone’s different but I am a ftm and I work at a daycare watching 5 infants by self at one time and button onesies aren’t a problem for me.

💙💙it and will be sharing.

Can you guys do a video on how you would put the baby to sleep after breastfeeding at night or during the day. I’m currently pregnant and I’ve read so many articles that they should always lay flat on their backs but a lot of friends tell me they lay their babies down different ways especially to avoid the baby having reflux from the milk. Pleaseeeeee!!!

I bedshared with my little who is now almost 7 months I absolutely wouldn’t have changed it for anything.

I feel so awful for making a comment that Royce looking like Sinbad. I actually did not know that was his father. I thought it was just a coincidence. You know ppl say everyone has a twin. It wasn't until now that I just said let me look it up because he looks so much like him🤦🏾‍♀️. Ultimately foot in mouth. Thanks for this video though because its super helpful.

What are the brands for the pajamas and swaddles?

I want to know where you got your top ?? 😍

Finally a video ☺️☺️☺️❤️

You should change your other swaddles so that they had Velcro on.

Wow fam.. Been a minute!

wait, does your baby sleep in dockatot? on their website they say it's NOT meant to be used for sleep (same as snuggle me)

Yesss the sound machine, the velcro swaddles, the baby monitor (i got owlet), the zipper pjs!!!! All important!!!! I wish my baby liked a pacifier but she only wanted my nipple. She also did not like any bottles😭😭. The haka was such a life saver. I need to add the bassinest!! That was such a a lifesaver for me, a c-section momma lol.

Get halo height adjustable bassinet for csection mommas, four moms was a waste of money for me

New sub here! What a fun video!

I really enjoyed your video. New subscriber here 🥰

If you use a humidifier be super careful and make sure you clean it properly people can get sick and die from using humidifier’s.

I am a dad dealing with gender dissapointment. These vids are helping.
