baby backpack for nursery image
Jennifer D
Experienced moms, I need your help please! I am getting ready to register for baby shower gifts. Besides the big stuff like nursery furniture, car seats, strollers, etc., what are/were the things you wanted/needed/used the most? There are so many products out there that it's hard to distinguish between what's necessary and what's just going to sit in the closet unused. Thanks in advance for your advice!
Answer
i was 19 and just shy of homeless when i became a mother. ths is the absolute survival kit, no nonsense list.
a bassinet or playpin- wont sleep in the crib for a few months anyway
lots of recieving blankets-u can slso use cloth diaper theyre cheaper and dont stain as easy
2 good heavy duty diaper bags- none of that cheap plastic stuff. you could use a messenger bag or backpack you already own, keep one on stand by, trust me itll come in handy
diapers-dont buy too many nb size you probably wont use them all
wipes get huggies they are thick so you use less they cost more than the cheap brands but you save money cause you dont need as many
CARSEAT!!!!!!!not negotiable, if you can buy new if not get one that hasnt been in an accident-muy importante
towels and cloths
medicine kit- rash ointment tylenol, thermometer, aspirator, humidifier, pain meds for you
witch hazel pads- for ur sore bottom
bathing supplies-it wont kill your kids if you dotn buy johnsons
xtra blankets
lots of socks-warm feet warm baby
bottles for formula or to store milk if you pump
flashlight and landline phone- incase power outage or emergency cell/cordless might not work
snugli is nice - sturdy cost effective and keeps the kid close
that damn boppy pillow- helps baby sit up and gives nursing support-easier on moms back
if u got more than 1 car 2seats
swing- my kids loved this thing- i believe it saved me from a nervous breakdown
lip balm
hard candy
pjs, onsies,
lots of laundry detergent
a good book
tissue- yes tissue
plastic baggies- put wipes and cotton swabs in them, pacifiers if you use one, theyre generally useful
nice stuff for you-shampoo soap anything.the first few weeks can be kinda rough a nice treat just for you can be i little pick me up.
hope you find this useful, goodluck!

Top five must have and wish you didn't waste $$$ on for newborn nursery?
M k
We are expecting our first child in a few months and are wondering what are the top five things your child (and you) couldn't live without the first 6 mos and the five things you wish you (or someone else) didn't waste money on? Obviously the basics of a crib, etc are a given...Thanks in advance!
Answer
My top 4 would be....
1.a nursing pillow
2.bouncy chair
3.DH/SO helping out
4.Breast pump
Those things I could have not made to 6 months without
Since I never had a baby shower, I had to buy everything myself. I don't really have anything that was a waste of money, but I have things that I didn't need right away.
1. crib, I co-sleep, and only now does my son sleep in it. I made it into a big co-sleeper
2.change table, never got one. I change my son on the floor in the bathroom or on my bed.
3.diaper bag, over priced and too small. School backpacks work better.
