So what is on your wish list to buy for this baby? Or what are you planning on buying?
We need a new monitor, some new diapers (we use cloth) and a wet bag, some new crib sheets, a new tub, and another changing table or pack N play since we now have 2 floors to move baby between.
I'd love a new carrier since I plan to wear baby a lot. We already have an Ergo and a sling. I'd also love a double stroller, but not sure if it will be too practical. Feel like I'm missing a bunch of stuff, so want to know what you ladies are planning.

Thinking about a video monitor too. Didn't have one last time. Not sure on that, though.

Totally using pink diapers. The only one I'm passing on to a friend is the ruffle butt one.

Crib (16 months apart)
Dresser/changing table
Diapers (also cloth)
Monitor
Wet bags
Glider (didn't have one with DS and majorly regret it)
Bedding
Pacifiers
Nipples
Humidifier
Clothes
Either new dipes or replace aplix
Changing table. Ours fell apart.
This poor child is getting the shaft, but I have no idea what I'm going to do about his bed. DD is two, but perfectly happy in her crib, & has never even thought of climbing out. Ideally I'd like to avoid buying a second crib, and we already have a twin bed for when she's ready. I'm hoping that by the time I'm ready to move him out of our room, we'll be ready to transition her to a floor bed. If not, he may move to a pack n play instead for awhile. Sorry kid.
I'm dealing with a similar dilemma. My DD only started sleeping in the crib at 18m, and I'm so not ready to mess with the good thing we've finally got going.

What are you thinking of doing?
It is mostly convenience items: more bottles since I'll probably formula-feed more than breast-feed, another mattress cover, more swaddling crap (sorry I'm having a harder time putting name to things now than ever), more kimonos and gowns. I really want a woven wrap but I'm waiting to see if DH gets me one for Christmas.

I'm would love a new pump since I EP'd last time. I'm also getting a new glider since I used an old rocking chair last time. Big mistake. If the LO turns out to be male, we'll buy boy clothes. Other than that we bought gender nuetral for everything else.

We still need bottle nipples/new bottles, pacis, pump parts, towels and washclothes. We're still deciding on if we want a new swing and/or high chair since dd's was a combo and has gotten 2.5 years of use and looks it. And I'm trying to decide if I want a new diaper bag. I have a PPB I love, but I'm afraid of it being too small if DD doesn't potty train by baby time.
I pulled out all DD's things from our basement to go through so my list might grow depending on how things look and if we decide we need new/ more things since we now have two floors and double the space as when we had DD.

I second Carson's for vit D drops. Just a drop a day and DS never had any issues.

Even though we have basically everything we need from DS, since I'm having a girl this time and this is our last child, I want all the frilly, girly stuff lol!
-Bottles/pacis
-Girl Clothes
-girl receiving blankets
-RNP, we never had one for DS, but I'd like to try
-New Infant Car Seat, I traded in DS' at BRU
-Crib bedding, frilly and girly, not DS' forest animals set
I'm sure there will be tons more that I will add to the list too lol!
Here's whats on my list:
BRICA Auto Mirror for in Car Safety - Beb will remain rear facing so we need a couple more of these.
Munchkin Arm & Hammer Diaper Pail - A second one, we love ours.
Summer Infant Extra Camera for Video Monitor - Self explanatory.
BOB Revolution SE Duallie Stroller - Love this stroller, need the double.
BOB Infant Car Seat Adapter Duallie for Britax - So we can walk/run early on.
Bob Handlebar Console for Duallie Strollers - Guise, I am going to have 2u2, I need somewhere to put my coffee.
Maclaren Twin Techno Stroller - Also love this stroller but probably won't purchase/use until 6+ months.
Britax B-Ready Stroller Bassinet - Because I want it.
I have also had my eye on a new diaper bag but I have not made a decision on which one yet. S/O things I don't need but want if I see a sale on:
Ciao! Baby Portable Travel High Chair
ERGObaby Travel Carrier
BABYBJORN Bouncer Balance Soft Cotton
I think I need to add a couple more Woombies to my Must Buy list. We had one and I loved that thing. It was so much easier than any swaddle or swaddle wrap (summer infant swaddleme - I'm talking about you!) for late night/early morning changes. I've also heard great things about the Miracle Blanket.

- another monitor (using our current one for the baby, getting a video monitor for DD1
- double stroller
- travel swing
- a second car mirror (possibly - I may have to turn DD1 FFing when I install the infant seat, so we'll see)
- a couple cotton sleepsacks (all of DD1's NB/Small ones are fleece since she was a December baby)
- NB/3m clothes - again because DD1 was a December baby, I don't have little warm-weather clothes
- another sleep sheep
That's basically it. Oh, and new bottle nipples and pacifiers.
