Product reviews

Would anyone be interested in starting a thread like this?

We could post products we have purchased for the baby that we like or dislike and why...such as cribs, strollers, etc.

I would love this...or even simply why you chose a certain brand product over another!

The one thing I remember buying for my son that I plan on repurchasing again is Triple Paste diaper rash cream. OMG this stuff is amazing. It would kill any sign of a rash or a huge raging rash in a matter of HOURS. We tried everything, A+D ointment, Butt Paste, Desitin, everything. I LOVE this stuff!

3rd time mom here!  Here are some little products I love!  I think that gear is mostly subjective, so I really would not know where to begin there…though we did like the Fisher Price My Little Lamb swing a lot.  

Woombies- https://www.woombie.com These are fantastic swaddles.  I think there is a cheaper off brand at BRU now, but I do not know if those are worth it.  I LOVE these things.

ANY baby clothes from nextdirect.com, but I especially love their sleepers.  They come in packs of 3 for $29.

Loved the Arms Reach co-sleeper for the first few months, but if you can get it used, do that because baby will grow out quickly.

I bought one of these sound machines for each of my kids.  The projection stopped working probably too soon, but they were so great that I bought replacements.  I will probably by another when the twins get here. https://www.target.com/p/mybaby-by-homedics-soundspa-lullaby-relaxation-machine/-/A-10707864

The things I want to try this time around:

Rock and Play sleepers

Adan and Anais swaddle blankets

Snap and Go stroller (double)

Anyway, I hope this is what OP had in mind…those are my recs!

I'd like to hear baby product reviews from STMs+ and pregnancy product reviews from everyone (boppy pillows, belly creams, etc). 

MrsRahl

agree with PP that this would be awesome, but one thread for ALL reviews... how would we search it?  We'd almost need a thread for strollers, diapers, etc. like PP said.

There's a board called Nurseries and Baby Gear and they post reviews. recs, and lists all the time. I have been going there to get feedback. Also, Lucie's List is amazing. Just in case not a lot of people respond to this thread.

Second to @LadyMacaron. The N&BG board will probably answer most of your questions and, if you search, I'm sure some are already answered.

I tried looking for video monitors...but it only comes up in other bump month boards..no reviews..so for something like that I would love a discussion.  Trying to debate whether or not to get a video monitor or just a regular one...decisions, decisions...

edited..never mind...found it under just "monitors".

@kjohnson1002, I'm a PW this morning! Anyway, I loooove our video monitor. It makes it really easy to see if the sounds DD is making are waking sounds or just sleeping sounds. I think they are totally worth it. Especially in a 2AM sleep deprived situation.
ETA:We have this one, but the hand helds with the smaller screen that are cheaper are good, too. https://www.target.com/p/summer-infant-3-5-baby-touch-boost-digital-color-monitor/-/A-14403919#prodSlot=large_1_11 I like that you can move the camera through the parent monitor.
