Answer
HOLY CRAP! 90% of this is ridiculous. Things you'll actually need:

Infant car seat
Car seat base for 2nd car
A stroller (you pick what kind you want, but you don't need four different styles!)
Some toys - you'll get a ton of these as gifts, too.
Clothes - you'll get two tons of these.
Breast pump if applicable; bottles and nipples if applicable. Unless you have a preemie, sterilizing isn't necessary.
Basic medical stuff - bulb syringe, nail clippers, thermometer, and some Tylenol.
Some burp cloths, or just use towels.
A few blankets.
Diapers.

The rest, you can do without or pick up in 2-3 years when you actually need it!

Looking for an infant carrier?

Mommy To 3

I am looking for an infant carrier not one that your child is on the front but on the back of you like a backpack type one. If you can find one and post a link it would be very helpful.
My son is 5 months old and he is 16 pounds and I will use this from 8 months and up.

Answer
We have this one:
