Re: 2nd+ time moms

  • maybe a double stroller, sling/ carrier, baby book, seasonal things if your kids are giong to be born in different seasons (heavy blankets, etc)

    I hope this helps!

  • Loading the player...
  • A dishwasher basket, bottle brush, extra nipples, milk storage if BF, Hmmmm.... both of my kids were born in November and I had a car seat cover that went over the top of the seat, it was GREAT!! Kept them nice and warm.

  • Ditto on the above posts and also a swing. DD loved hers so I would  have been sh!t out of luck if I didn't have it.
  • New bibs/burp clothes, pacifiers, wipes, diaper rash ointment/butt paste, infant tylenol/motrin, nasal syringe, bottle brush, extra hangers for clothes, lovey/blanket

    I have a Skip Hop Duo Double diaper bag; it's made for twins, and absolutely phenomenal.

  • I'm on baby #5! and after the 2nd they start to entertain each other but I could not get dishes, laundry, or a shower in without an exersaucer and/or jumperoo! keeps 'em busy and there is a tray thing to put snacks in too! Other than that a sling! that was a must have with my last daughter. She loved feeling close and i even nursed her in it while i did house work! ?P.S. don't get rid of ANYTHING until your know it is not possible to get pregnant again! Every time I had a yard sale or gave anything away i would find out I'm pregnant a week later. Huge "baby" garage sale in March and found out I'm pregnant In April! Please take that advice!!!
  • I am investing in a better baby monitor. Not a video one but the one I had before had so much static it sucked.

    Double stroller

    I didn't have a Moby for DS but I got one for the new baby.

  • I think everyone covered everything, but I would say a sit n stand rather than a traditional double stroller.  It's less bulky and lighter.  We got a double (Graco DuoGlider) after DS was born and I do not like it.  We are thinking about putting it on Craigslist or Ebay and then getting a sit n stand.
