Re: what baby gear do you use? (help me compile a list)
Nursing cover, security blanket/lovie, formula dispenser for diaper bag/on the go, those little scented plastic baggies for diaper disposal, emery boards, temporal artery thermometer (if you want to get nitpicky lol). Extra carseat bases? What about those snugly things people use in their carseats? It doesn't really get cold here so I'm not sure what they're called.
Sorry the more I write the more things I think of haha.
Reading through this list has made realize the insane amount of baby items I've gotten over the last few months! Pre pregnancy I probably only would have come up with 25% of this list..if that.
