I am being given a play mat, but don't have it yet. The crib hasn't been finished yet, so I haven't gotten any bedding for it (we're using the Rock 'N' Play beside the bed until he outgrows it). I do plan on getting a Pack 'N' Play, but not until he outgrows the Rock 'N' Play. I just got my Snap 'N' Go in the mail today and put it together, but wasn't sure about what type of stroller it was considered. I'm just going to use a pillow for breast feeding, unless that doesn't work; then I'll invest in a boppy.
I'm curious, since this whole bumbo seat recall. Now a days there seem to be so many things that people have for babies that all the baby stores say are 'Must Haves' on your registry. I'm just curious what people do and don't have. DH and I didn't buy much of anything figuring if we find we can't live without it later we'll get it then. I'm sure we will be buying more as we go along. So, what do you have right now? Check off the ones you do and leave blank the ones you don't. Or just list what you do/don't have.

Not trying to start debates on what is good or bad, everyone has preferences. Just curious about what people have. (Doesn't matter if you bought it new or used or got it as a hand-me-down either!).
Edit: For Clarity
Waiting on the highchair since we wont need it right away and we dont know for sure which one we want. I don't have a glider but I have a recliner that rocks to I figure that will be good enough for now. And we have a mesh bath seat thing instead of a tub, thats what other moms I know recommended since its quite cheap and really all you need.

We have everything on the list EXCEPT the "high chair" "umbrella stroller" and "walker" - we opted for the space saver chair for feedings... we're skipping the walker altogether.

I have a ton of stuff. I don't plan on having all this stuff out at the same time, it takes up too much space! I'm already overwhelmed with having the swing, bouncer seat and pack n play all out with DD's toys. Our house just isn't big enough.
I loved my jogging stroller and used it way more than my travel system stroller.
