Now that the winter holidays are over, it's time focus on another season that tends to bring happiness and delight: baby shower season! If you know someone who is expecting (or you happen to be expecting yourself), it's always a good idea to stay up to date on the latest trends in parenting gear and supplies.
While some things will never change (parents-to-be will always appreciate diapers), there are often new baby-centric products debuting each year. Here are a few that are expected to be hot in 2022.
Comotomo Natural Feel Baby Bottle
As they say, a fed baby is a happy baby, and these Comotomo baby bottles are designed to imitate breastfeeding as closely as possible. The bottles are also wider than what you might typically find, which means they're easier to clean (no brush required).
Little Unicorn Cotton Muslin Swaddle Blanket Set
We all love the standard swaddling blankets issued by hospitals at birth, but it's also pretty fun to have swaddling blankets of your own. This three-pack from Little Unicorn includes three blankets: "one to swaddle, one to cuddle, one to nurse!"
TruBliss Evi Smart Bassinet
Babies definitely need somewhere to sleep, and the TruBliss Evi Smart Bassinet fits the bill. The bassinet was designed to incorporate the latest smart technology, which means you can connect multiple devices to make sure you're always aware of just how well your baby is sleeping.
Nuna Cudl Baby Carrier
Babywearing is a wonderful way to both bond with your baby and keep them close, and this Nuna baby carrier is designed to grow with your child. The magnetic buckles make putting on the carrier a breeze, and the hands-free design means you can snuggle while also multitasking.
Oribel PortaPlay Stage-Based Baby Activity Center + Stools Combo
Sometimes the best baby shower gifts are those that are meant for babies once they're a little older, like this activity center. The center is designed to support babies between the ages of 5 months and 8 months and babies who are 8 to 12 months old, and the center can also grow with a child up to the age of 5.
