    Before the baby arrives.

    1) Pack n Play with Bassinet  Bought a new one for this LO because it was such a ridiculous deal. I got the Chicco Lullaby LX for $44 from Walmart.com; it retails for anywhere between $140-$190!

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment Nope, using Pack & Play in our room. 

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar Nope. 

    4) Bouncer Have one from DS#2, though he HATED it. 

    5) Exersaucer Bought for $10 at a garage sale, I lent my old one out and never got it back. 

    6) Swing Bought one for $35 in almost brand new condition from someone on Craigslist. 

    I LOVE A BARGAIN! :D

  • We have all of those except for a bassinet and an exersaucer.  Of course we got it all with DD and will be reusing it.  We do have a stationary jumper though that's similar to an exersaucer.

  • Before the baby arrives.

    1) Pack n Play with Bassinet - Have. We use it for naps on the floor that the baby does not have the crib on. Also as a changing station. 

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment - Do not have. We do not co-sleep. Baby will sleep in his crib. 

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar - Will maybe get one. Haven't decided yet. We have a swing and bouncer so I'm not convinced it's necessary.  

    4) Bouncer - Have. It's great for naps when they are really young. 

    5) Exersaucer - Have. Not necessary until they are a little older, but we have one from DD. 

    6) Swing - Have. DD loved her swing. Hopefully this LO will like it as well.

  • 1) Pack n Play with Bassinet: Have one from DS1. (used it for daytime naps downstairs when he was a newborn then to contain him as he got older, he never napped in it once he was in the crib full time)

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment: Have one (was fabulous for bf'ing after a c/s not getting out of bed, but didn't want to co-sleep)

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar: No

    4) Bouncer: Have one (used it for showering and while doing chores)

    5) Exersaucer: Have one (the bouncy kind that's Little Eintstein)

    6) Swing: Have one (couldn't live without it)

    ...I have a lot of baby crap...

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar  -- this doubles as our bassinet

    4) Bouncer -- don't have one

    5) Exersaucer -- don't have one.  We got a jumperoo as a hand-me-down and liked that a lot.

    6) Swing -- have a hand-me-down travel swing that we used for a bit with DS

  • (prefacing with I'm a STM, so...) 

    1) Pack n Play with Bassinet - getting a new one, old one is going to my dad's house so both kids will have a place to sleep during the day

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment - got a co-sleeper when DS was about 2-3 weeks old so he could sleep in our room (the PNP doesn't fit with our furniture configured the way we have it); DD will use it from the first day home

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar - didn't have with DS, have no plans to get one for DD

    4) Bouncer - have one from DS

    5) Exersaucer - waste of space IMO; trading in the one we had for DS tomorrow at BRU to get the 25% off trade-in coupon to use on the PNP

    6) Swing - got when DS was about a month old; best investment we made; hoping DD will like it just as much

  • 1) Pack n Play with Bassinet

    had it, my twins slept in this in our room at night until we moved them to the nursery at 7 weeks. 

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment

    not necessary if you have a PNP with bassinet IMO. And you'll get a lot more use out of the PNP over the long term than with a cosleeper or bassinet.  

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar

    Never had one, but heard great things about it. Especially for babies with colic (my DD was colicky, but we used the swing for her). 

    4) Bouncer

    Loved these. Awesome for having an easy to move from room-to-room place to put your baby where s/he will be strapped in and safe. I used these a ton, especially when I needed to take a shower. I'd just bring it in the bathroom with me and strap the babies in, it would buy me at least 8 minutes.  

    5) Exersaucer

    Loved it. My kids loved it. We used it from 4 months (when they'd just dangle there) till they were a little over a year old (when they could cruise the outside and play with the toys). Not necessary to have before the baby arrives, but great to register for.  

    6) Swing 

    I seriously could not have survived the first 8 weeks without one.  


  • 1) No pack and play

    2) using the bassinet attachment for our stroller (UB vista)

    3) no rock n' play

    4) no bouncer

    5) no exersaucer

    6) We did get a swing ( my mom bought it).

  • We are getting 1, 4 and 5 but not going to get the exersaucer til baby is 4-6 months. I seriously hate clutter so we are just focusing on things that can fit in his room or are easy to move (bouncer) and store. When we get the exersaucer I hope to be selling some of his infant stuff to make room

  • 1) Pack n Play with Bassinet (skipping this time because my last child hated hers and we gave it away.  If I decide I need one I'll buy an other once he's here)

    2) Bassinet or co-sleeper attachment(We have an on bed co sleeping device.  It's like a tiny little pack and play that sits between the pillows.

    3) Rock n Play Sleeper or similar (skipping...  not needed)

    4) Bouncer (I'm going to try to skip this, but will buy one if I need something to keep him happy.  The swing has a seat that pops off but doesn't bounce)

    5) Exersaucer(will be his big Christmas present)

    6) Swing (I'm buying one next month.  The seat comes off and can be used as a non bouncy seat)
