Success after IF

Fill in the blank: I've spent a fortune finding the perfect ________.

For some people I hear it's bottles or pacifiers.

For us, it's swaddlers.  Before DS was born we bought 2 sleep sacks (not swaddlers, I know), and 3 Swaddle Me's.  He preferred to be tightly swaddled, so we bought receiving blankets.  At a friend's recommendation, we then bought 2 Swaddle Design Ultimate Swaddle Blankets.  He started breaking out, so we finally used the Swaddle Me's we bought originally, then returned to the store to buy 3 in a bigger size.  And I just rush-ordered a woombie :) 

For what products have you had to use trial and error to find the perfect fit?

  • I wouldn't say a fortune, because they are relatively inexpensive, but we tried at least 6 or 7 different pacifiers.

  • I have a feeling my answer is going to become - cloth diapers.

    ...but we also have one of every bottle and pacifier on the market. ;)

    Ugh, yes, I'm on the hunt for a new diaper bag, too.  DH won't love it as he thinks I spent too much on my first one! 

  • Tshirt - totally NBR but I swear the ones available suck!

    Have you tried Halo Sleepsack Swaddles!  They are by far my favorite!  My LO is no longer swaddled, and now sleeps in regular Halo sleepsacks.

  • Sippy cups.  The collection we have is ridiculous.  All of those "no spill" sippies?  They LIE.
