Answer
-I loved the Snugli carrier- we also used a sling.
-nursing clothes by Motherwear (check ebay for deals) are great for nursing in public if you plan to. Lansinoh breast pads were the best.
-I can say with confidence that I will never buy a highchair again- I would save the money and get the $14 Walmart one that straps to a chair- it's just as good!
-For a stroller, definitely pick one that you can open and close with one hand. Anything else is too much of a pain- especially if you fly.
-Happy Baby manual food grinder- you can take it anywhere and just grind up your healthy family dinner for baby.
-My son's fave toy was the Ball Blaster, the balls swirl down and come out the bottom.
-car seat- definitely the Britax Roundabout- it's a little more pricey but the easiest one I have ever used. For an infant seat I liked the Stay In View by Fisher Price but they stopped making it and it would be hard to find new now. (I had a hard time 3 yrs ago w. my youngest!) I liked the carry strap.
-I have a First Years vinyl changing pad that has pockets for a couple diapers and travel wipes- it was great.
-I would suggest a backpack instead of a diaper bag, it's just so much easier! If you don't bottle feed, they really don't need much space- I have thrown the changer (above) and a couple toys into my purse and been fine.
My ultimate advice- babies need far less crap than you think. With each child my list of "things needed for baby" just gets smaller and smaller.
Congrats!

HELP PLEASE-baby carrier poll?
cindermom
I am looking for a good baby carrier for my 1-month-old son. I bought an over-the-shoulder-baby-holder brand sling for him. It claimed to be the best sling on the market but I felt like he was going to fall out of it and I ended up having to use my hands to hold him steady which completely defeats the purpose of a baby carrier which is to be HANDS FREE. Maybe I put him in the sling incorrectly???
Now I'm looking for a new baby carrier and I was wondering if you moms out there can help me decide among all of the options in baby carriers by giving me your reviews and letting me know what worked for you:) I'd really appreciate the help! I'm willing to spend up to $30, I've been looking at the used carriers on Ebay...
Answer
I have three different kinds of carriers and i really like all of them for different reasons. I have a woven cotten wrap type carrier like a moby style but not since it was homemade that was awesome when they were little and needed alot of support. I also have a tube sling(hotsling type thing) which i love with my toddlers when we are running around and i just want something quick to put her in to give me free hands its good for older ones with more head/neck support. And lastly i have a Mei Tai style carrier again homemade that i like for longer outings...Its comfy and easy to tie and take and put baby into and out of and i can wear it for hours and hubbie will even wear it he says its like wearing a backpack so he likes it. If You can sew at all you make any kind you want too really for alot less than they cost in store or try to find some on a really good sale.....But those are the three i like...:)
Good Luck finding something that works.
