Is anyone else addicted to Amazon Prime?
I mean, I was pretty addicted before, but as soon as I had a baby, it got real. Free 2 day shipping- and you'll deliver it right to my doorstep? I don't have to
pack a diaper bag, wrestle the baby into a carseat, and go to an actual store? I'm in!
As a blogger, I'm also a part of Amazon's affiliate program, which means that I can recommend my favorite items to you guys, and if you decide to buy something, I get a small commission- at no extra cost to you. You get awesome stuff, I stay in business. Sweet! (

This week, I'm letting you in on a little behind-the-scenes, and sharing my Amazon bestseller list for the year so far. These are the Amazon baby items that were most purchased by my readers. This list includes some of my own all-time personal favorites, so I can't wait for you to check it out. :)
I love these bags, so it's no wonder that they're also the #1 most purchased baby item for my readers. They have a wet (waterproof) pocket and a dry (mesh) pocket. I use them to store clean/dirty clothes or clean/dirty cloth diapers in the diaper bag. I've also used them for clean/dirty pump parts, and for quick trips when I didn't want to bring an entire diaper bag with me somewhere. And they come in such pretty patterns!
I also have one of these, and I used it several times a day for almost a year. Just think of how much time I saved by being able to multi-task every time I pumped! Seriously- worth the investment.
This pumping bra was the #3 most-purchased item by my readers. I love that you can choose between the regular and tie-back options.
Yes! These are a pumping must-have. I didn't have the time or energy to wash pump parts multiple times a day, so I used these and then stored everything in the fridge in between sessions to keep everything nice and sanitary. These are a great time-saver.
I used two of these- one for me while pumping at work, and one to send bottles of milk to daycare with my daughter. The Ameda and Medela products are all compatible, so you can mix and match no matter what pump you have. I pumped straight into these bottles, capped them, and then attached nipples to turn them into bottles for the next day. It was so nice not to have to transfer the milk into new containers every night.
So cute! I must say, I'm addicted to this entire line of products. The chevron pattern is my favorite. This bottle bag is really roomy. I've used it to store two bottles, the little ice pack it comes with, as well as snacks for both my baby and me- all at once.
Planet Wise has a
huge selection of wet and wet/dry bags. You can basically get any size you want in any pattern. These are fantastic if you use cloth diapers.
More wet bags for all you cloth diaper users! Although, I think I would have one or two of these on hand even if I didn't use cloth diapers, for wet or dirty clothes in my diaper bag.
I have this diaper bag in chevron, and I love it! I think it's adorable, but my husband says it isn't
too girly. Everything I need fits easily, and I love all of the pockets, which make it a snap to stay organized. (By the way, this bag is featured in my post on
how to pack the perfect diaper bag. Have you seen it?)
Another great Skip Hop Grab and Go product. This is an easy, on-the-go option if you're not going to be out for long and you don't want to lug your entire diaper bag with you.
I used both Medela and Ameda bottles. The Medela ones seem a little more sturdy, and can hold one more ounce than the regular Ameda ones. (Just in case your baby is a big eater!)
These are great for building up your freezer stash. Freeze em flat, then stack them up once they're frozen. (Have you seen
my post on breast milk freezer storage?)
Munchkin makes a simple bottle bag, and the mega-version if you're planning on stashing a ton of bottles!
And we round out the list with another wet bag. Seriously- you can use these for so many different things, and you can throw them straight in the laundry whenever you need to. PumpEase has tons of cute patterns to choose from.
So those at the top 15 bestselling baby items by Laura's Plans readers. Have you tried any of these? What did you think? Let me know in the comments. :)
