You really dont need much babe. The baby warmers and things like that... The convenience products.... Ended up being a waste of money. I did Everything basically hands on. I'm an old school mum so I guess I don't mind sucking snott and spitting it our if it means my baby can breathe. I bought both expresses... For boobies Milk. It was OK. I suppose.... The machines are helpful when you're tired. Hwoeveer I exclusively breast fed till 8 months... I reckon buy as you go babe. Diapers. Every baby is different. I don't use Huggies as they five my baby rashes. I use baby love or mamia from aldi... Hope that helps :)

I felt so unprepared when having my baby because I didn’t have most of the things on all the internet lists, but honestly, tiny kiddos don’t need that much. Sometimes it’s better to feel out the relationship and the baby before buying a lot of the stuff for babies.

All you really need is a safe place to sleep, stuff for hygiene/health, diapers/wipes, clothes, a car seat/stroller, and bottles and formula if your not breastfeeding. Everything else are just things that either are really helpful(but not needed), or a big fat waste of money.

I definitely regret a lot of things that were purchased. So much wasted money by myself and family, which is unfortunate. Never used his bassinet, crib, or his swing much.

I LOVE the oogiebear & haven’t used the nosefrida once (baby is almost 9 mos old). It never ceases to amaze me how ppl can have such differing opinions. But it doesn’t surprise me because not only are parents different (have different preferences, etc), but babies are different too! I love when parents say “oh this worked on my first, but not me second.” It’s so crazy

Its like a babyshop basically (i live in south africa and our places like Baby City or Babier R ua etc) have registeries i know places like walmart and target also have and Amazon.... But its a list you create basically for your babyshower and then you have a code with thay code people can log on see what you want and go and buy what you want for your baby and if you for example has a Set Nuk bottels on the list and someine buys that the item gets removed from the list so people dont buy double unless you marked you want 2 items

3 years later after having my daughter and I can literally agree with all BUT solly baby gown - our daughter loved in it and her legs were super long so tied gown provided enough room for her. And camera - we have Cubo Ai and use it till today. It helped ease anxiety, back track when my daughter climbed out of her crib and didn't have to constantly think about recharging it. Notifications were great too. For recommendations - they have 2 in 1 wifi and wifi free monitors with dual use at Amazon that I would highly recommend!

The boppy isn't just for breastfeeding though. I'm not feeding that way but have always worked daycare and nannied and we use the boppy for support for tummy time, sitting up, for me when i get a back massage so i can put my face through it at home. It's really multifunctional and a great cost! And you'll use it for like 2 years.

Do you possibly have another video where you reviewed the nanit?

Your criticism of the Boppy original pillow is why I went for the Boppy Best Latch pillow, which also has a firm surface to place baby on. I can feed my son hands-free on it and it's a great choice if you want something a bit less bulky around the back than the My Brest Friend.

If you have an old phone you’re not using, use it as a baby “monitor!” We were given a Nest camera, but preferred to have a separate device for our monitor and this has worked well for us. We put a popsocket on the back to use as a stand and the old phone just connects to the Nest via wifi et voila!

More of a PSA: The BabyBjörn is fine for the spine and hips, especially in the lowest position. My baby sat in it from around 5 weeks (basically once his head was fairly stable). I'm not sure about the Graco swing. But that's just a thing to be aware of. I also personally prefer it because my baby will eventually learn to bounce himself instead of relying on the mechanism. Also, you can get them used for way less than 200 dollars and you can resell it for as much as you bought it for if it's in an acceptable condition :)

I love the diaper changer Mat! I use my diaper bag as a purse too so if hubby wants to change the beeb he can take the mat and have everything is with it and doesn’t have to take the whole bag

Exactly!!!! I LOVE my skiphop changing mat... It buy it for every person I know having a baby. Who wants to carry their whole diaper bag everywhere they go? And like you said, than your partner can just take the little diaper changer instead of taking your whole bag to the restroom. Especially because kids are in diapers well past the age of being diaper bag dependant, so sometimes you just bring the little diaper changer into the store with you for a quick run, or to the neighbor's house and don't need to lug the whole bag!

We loved gowns and recommend them to new parents because they are so handy for overnight changes. And baby carriers come in handy when you have more than one baby/little, but I never liked the wraps. They took too long to get on and off.

Omg I love you! You said it best! I agree with all of your regrets! I have a 13 month old and I by far didn’t use these things or used the options you mentioned instead. Huggies are the best & camomile over gripe or gas drops was such a better and natural option. Love you! keep the baby videos coming!

Every parent and baby is different. I can't relate with half of these. Socks, boppy, certain hats, Velcro swaddles, baby camera ( got a $20 one), cotton footed sleepers (you just have to get bigger ones),baby bjorn were a must for me with my little one. I used all these at least until 6 months. The rest of the stuff in can definitely agree with.

Brittany Balyn with my daughter we only bought 1 blanket. She’s 6 now and is still crazy attached to it. But as a baby we spent many nights washing it in the sink when she got sick all over it or spilled on it. She still refuses to sleep without it. I’m 36 weeks pregnant with our son and we already have 4 of them same blanket so we just change it out and he has no idea 😂

On the Nanit camera you can press the speaker icon to put the camera into “Background audio on”. While that mode is on you can hear what’s going on with your baby even when using phone to watch videos and not directly using the Nanit app.

@87themonster 4 года назад
This is why I refused to buy any baby items before my baby shower. I ended up with a closet full of clothes and more. We only bought the crib since family and friends gifted the changing table and car seat/stroller bundle. Baby registry highly recommended and also talk to other moms with experience to know exactly what you will need. And of course, watch RU-vid videos like this one 😁

The price immediately turned me away from it and she kept saying "oh no it's really worth it better then any other bouncer ect" I ignored her and used my second hand brightstarts bouncer that i baught for £5 with no regrets as it works fine.
@amandabresciani4506
@amandabresciani4506 4 года назад
A very thoughtful list.... I completely agree with most of your points, but differ on a couple. The Boogiebear has actually been great as our child has gotten older because nowadays he tends to get boogers that are more solid. It's quicker and easier in my experience to get these out with the Boogiebear. Also, the Skip Hop changing pad is excellent if you keep extra diapers, etc. in the car like we do.... just in case you run out of what's in the diaper bag or you grab the baby to go somewhere and forget the diaper bag.

We use a security camera that is set up that you can only look at it through a secure app and only if you are on a certain encrypted server my husband set up. (It helps that he is a software engineer lol). We just use an old tablet we had laying around for normal monitoring, but can also pull it up on our phones too. Plus it was way cheaper than most baby monitors on the market.

Totally agree about the skip hop changer! I never use the extra pouches for all that extra stuff since its already in the diaper bag. Not to mentioned folding it back up while holding a baby is kind of a pain too. I also hated the boppy pillow...but mostly because the hole is so small its hard to get around your waist. Not super functional. Love your video!!

Did use baby knitted shoes, mittens and hats because we where in a cold winter area. Carriers I had one fabric one for home and one more sturdy for outdoors(we do hiking often).

Huggies all the way!! I'm not a mother but I work in crèche (what we call daycare/early years services in Ireland) I find huggies keep everything in if you know what I mean. We don't have Honest nappies (diapers) here but there designs are cute. Ps your little lady is gorgeous and I can't get over how big she's getting.

@Jailene Ramos huggies don't give rashes no nappies/diapers give rashes. Nappies/diapers rashes is cause by a infant's teething, their diet, their pee and bowel movements and how long a infant is left in a dirty nappy/diapers.

@Jailene Ramos ohh no have found a good brand for the kids? I know from past experiences with kids of some family members and parents at work they would use natural cloth nappies whenever their children had very bad skin rashes from using normal nappies.
@AngelicVirgo
@AngelicVirgo 4 года назад
@Jailene Ramos that's good. We don't have parent choice here, we have pampers, huggies and store brand nappies but there all products are different in every country. You can try a cloth one any age but it's messy when their toddlers.
