With my due date just around the corner, I’ve been carefully going over my hospital bag, making sure I have everything I need for when the big day arrives. But as any expectant mom can tell you, no matter how prepared you think you are, there’s always something you realize you’ve forgotten at the last minute. From the little comforts that make the hospital stay more pleasant to those practical items you just can’t go without, it’s easy to overlook a few things in the hustle of getting ready. That’s where Walmart has truly come to the rescue for me. Their wide selection of baby essentials and convenient delivery options have been a game-changer in my final weeks of pregnancy. Whether I need something for myself or Baby T, Walmart offers a variety of products that can be delivered straight to my door – even as soon as the same day. The convenience of Walmart’s delivery service has taken a huge weight off my shoulders, allowing me to focus on what really matters: getting ready to meet my little one. So, as I continue to add those final touches to my hospital bag, I wanted to share some last-minute must-haves that you might want to consider adding to yours. 

As a new mom, I’m constantly thinking about everything I might need for postpartum recovery. The Frida Mom Postpartum Recovery Essentials kit has amazing reviews and seems to have all the supplies you’ll need to feel comfortable during those first few days after delivery. The kit includes 4 disposable postpartum underwear, 4 instant ice maxi pads, witch hazel pad liners, perineal healing foam, and a handy caddy to keep everything within reach. It’s like having a personal care package that takes care of all your needs from the hospital back home.

I’ve heard about the challenges of breastfeeding, so I’m preparing myself with the Frida Mom Breastfeeding Survival Kit. This kit is packed with everything you need to soothe and protect your breasts, from nipple cream to lactation breast pads, helping you through issues like engorgement, clogged ducts, and nipple pain. It seems promising for any new mom looking to make breastfeeding a little easier.

I was instantly drawn to these bottles because the internal vent system is clinically proven to reduce spit-up, burping, and gas, making feedings more comfortable. I also appreciate that the breast-like nipple shape helps ease the transition from breast to bottle, ensuring my baby gets the best feeding experience possible.

These swaddle blankets are definitely becoming staples in my baby’s nursery for good reason. The breathable, soft cotton fabric is gentle on the skin, and the generous size makes them incredibly versatile. Whether I’m using them as a nursing cover, stroller cover, or just a cozy blanket, they’ll be a constant companion through all the little moments of motherhood.

I’m planning on using this swaddle to help Baby T feel secure and sleep better. The adjustable wings make it easy to create a snug, womb-like fit that prevents the startle reflex, which often wakes babies up. I love that it’s made of soft, durable cotton and is machine-washable.

I’ve heard amazing things about these Itzy Ritzy Sweetie Soother pacifiers. The one-piece design is made of 100% food-grade silicone, so it’s safe and durable. Plus, the trendy braid accent and unisex colors make these pacifiers both practical and adorable – a great addition to any baby’s essentials.

I plan on using this clip to keep my baby’s pacifier within reach and off the floor. Also made of 100% food-grade silicone, the beaded strap is safe and easy to clean. The secure clasp is gentle on clothes, and the universal design means I can attach it to almost any pacifier, teether, or small toy – an absolute must-have for busy moms.

I want Baby T’s first outfit to be special – and of course, neutral. This Gerber Take-Me-Home set checked both boxes. I love the footie pants and side-snap shirt that’s easy on a healing belly button. The matching cap adds the perfect finishing touch!

I’ll be delivering in September, so I have no idea if temperatures will drop by then. I’m packing this super cute cardigan just in case. The hooded, button-down design with adorable 3D bear ears makes it irresistibly cute – definitely an essential during changing weather.
