Which baby care products do you actually use every day?

Before having my baby I felt like I needed absolutely everything, but now I’ve realised there are only a handful of products I actually use every single day.
Some things turned out amazing and made life easier, while others just sit in a drawer untouched.
Would love to know what baby care products you genuinely found useful and kept going back to?

Sudocrem and aveeno.

Childs Farm bubble bath, shampoo, moisturiser and suncream
Aveeno conditioner
Vaseline
Sudocrem
Aquafresh 0-2 toothpaste

DS is 17 months and always has food, paint or something else in his hair so he’s in the bath most days!

The big 150ml tubs of Tesco baby petroleum jelly
Dentinox for cradle cap
Yellow metanium (RIP!)

Hardly anything for a baby to be honest. Mine didn’t get nappy rash so didn’t use cream every day. I used those water wipe type wet wipes. When they get teeth then toothpaste was used every day. I can’t think of a toiletry style product that was used on them every day other than toothpaste (if that’s what you mean by “baby care”.

Same. When mine was a baby there was nothing we used everyday, except water wipes and then toothpaste. Aveeno products for bath and moisturising, but he didn't have a bath everyday.

At 7 months, no teeth but plenty teething behaviours:

Sudocream - to keep nappy rash at bay overnight (we use Terry cloth wipes and water rather than wet wipes to help with this too)
Vaseline - for drool rash
Electric nail file - every second or third day

She has had two colds and the Sterimar spray has been fab to relieve congestion. During those periods we used it multiple times per day, but obviously not when she’s healthy!
