Pregnant Montana Browns baby must-haves including feeding pillow and white noise machine
Former Love Island star Montana Brown, who is pregnant with her first child with her fiancé Mark O’Connor, took to her Instagram stories to share a list of all the essential items she’s getting herself and recommends for new parents.
The 27 year old star shared the list titled ‘baby tips’ to her Instagram stories and it was helpfully broken down into two categories: 'formula’ and ‘general’.
For formula, the first-time mum-to-be recommends Kendamil, Cow and Gate – which she notes is easier than other brands to pick up at the shops.
Her general list then details lots of the essentials that parents-to-be need (along with some handy notes beside them), and we found some of the items online for you…
Feeding pillow
While Montana doesn’t specify a specific type of feeding pillow, this machine washable and tumble dry safe one from Niimo comes highly rated according to Amazon users.
Niimo Nursing Pillow, £28 here.
Portable Milk Heater
Next on her list, the first-time mum-to-be has the Nuby RapidCool Portable Baby Bottle Maker as the on-the-go bottle heater to have. And, with the RapidCool system able to take formula from boiling hot to the perfect temperature in just two minutes, it’s easy to see why she recommends it.
Nuby RapidCool Portable Baby Bottle Maker, £39.99 here.
White noise machine
The former Love Island star also has a white noise machine noted on her list, and with so many parents swearing by this soothing sound to send little ones off into a peaceful slumber, it’s easy to see why. There are lots of baby-safe white noise machines on the market, but – according to the reviews – none is more popular than Ewan the sheep.
Sweet Dreamers Ewan Deluxe, £39.99 here.
Silver nipple shields
Another must-have on the list are Silverettes – a form of sterling silver nipple shields designed to soothe sore nipples. Silverette nipple shields can be picked up for £39.95 from Bella Baby. Or, for a cheaper alternative, these SilverPed ones are a great option – they’re highly rated according to Amazon users and have some really great reviews.
SilverPed Silver Nipple Shields, £19.80 here.
UV steriliser
Next on the list, the former Love Islander has a UV steriliser – which is a popular alternative to a traditional bottle sterilising system. This three-in-one design from Tommee Tippee, that kills 99.9% of bacteria and viruses and is steam and water free, comes highly rated by parents – according to Amazon.
Tommee Tippee UV 3-in-1 Steriliser and Dryer, £109.99 here.
Nappy cream
On her list, Montana also has nappy cream, and recommends Weleda Nappy Change Cream. This low-cost calendula-based nappy cream, that’s formulated to protect and nourish even the most delicate of skin, comes highly recommended – according to Amazon. So, it’s no wonder the former Love Islander has made it one of her must-have essentials.
Weleda Nappy Change Cream, £3.25 here.
Baby sleepsuits with zips
Another great recommendation Montana shares is baby sleepsuits that come with zips, rather than traditional poppers, making getting little ones dressed and undressed a far quicker and less fiddly process. For zipped baby grows, these unisex five-star rated, 100% organic cotton bamboo sleepsuits come highly rated.
AdoraCub Sleepsuits, £19.99 here.
Nappy caddy
The former Love Island also has nappy caddies on the list, and notes that it’s worth getting one for every room. While Montana doesn’t specify which caddy she’d pick, this neutral grey material caddy comes complete with plenty of pockets and ample storage space.
Other essentials the first-time mum-to-be has on her list include plenty of muslin cloths, a baby wrap sling, baby bottles, swaddles, and a baby bath set.
Putska Baby Nappy Caddy, £15.99 here.
The Love Island star announced her pregnancy on Christmas Eve 2022 by sharing a sweet video to Instagram showing off her growing baby bump and an ultrasound.
Alongside the video, Montana wrote: “Baby O’Connor coming next summer."
Earlier this year, the excited mum-to-be shared a sweet gender reveal video to her Instagram account which showed her and Mark popping a balloon filled with pale blue confetti as their friends and family cheered.
She captioned the video: "Baby O’Connor is a…. gender reveal weekend at Huntlington House @uniquehomestays so grateful also for the beautiful decorations and set up by @twooakevents".
Montana and Mark are thought to have begun dating in 2020, with Mark going on to pop the question to the star on their recent babymoon.
