01
What the truth labels on this site actually mean
Here's what all five labels mean, plus why I won't call something a favorite just because it was on our registry.
On our list
The full notebook
Useful context,
not a sales pitch.
Each note says what we actually know: used, bought but not tried, exact-version detail, or simply on our list.
02
The baby booties that actually stayed on for us
My short, firsthand take on the exact Goumi booties we had: they stayed on and were my favorite. That's the part I can speak to, so I'm leaving the review right there.
Used + opinion
03
The newborn clothes I had an actual opinion about
The Kyte footie felt worth it to me, and the Goumi booties actually stayed on. I'm also sharing the Bonsie link, but I don't have a firsthand review of that one.
Used + opinion
04
The nursing pillow I liked in the newborn stage
My honest take on when the My Brest Friend pillow was useful to me. This is just our experience, not a claim about feeding, pain, posture, or what every parent needs.
Used + opinion
05
The two bottles we kept on hand before trying either one
Why the Pigeon and Thyseed bottles are on my list even though I couldn't review them yet. I bought both, but I'm not ranking them or calling either one the best.
Bought, not tried
06
What 'on our list' means before there is a review
A quick way to read the 'On our list' label: it can give you a place to start, but it doesn't mean I used or recommend the product.

07
Two exact baby-product details that are not reviews
The Bonsie and Evenflo notes tell you which versions were on our list, and nothing more. I don't have firsthand experience to add, so I'm keeping that line clear.
Detail only
08
Six items marked purchased, and what that does not tell us
Here are the six items the registry marked purchased. That status doesn't tell me who used them, whether they liked them, or whether I should recommend them.
Marked purchased
09
Five feeding-list links that are still open questions
The list includes high chairs, a cup, and a bottle brush. I'm sharing the exact links we saved, plus the things I'd check before buying, without pretending I tried them.

Five baby-gear links I have not turned into picks
These five baby-gear links are starting points, not picks. I'd double-check the exact model and current details before buying because I can't offer a personal comparison.
