S+TM wish/to buy list

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.

Re: S+TM wish/to buy list

  • I also would love a new carrier, but have two as well and I don't think I can convince DH I need another.  I would love a wrap like the mei tai that doesn't have all the hassle of a moby.  We are getting a lot of new things for DD's new big girl room.  For this one we need a new crib mattress and probably clothes, and most of the other stuff on my list is just little stuff for my post partum recovery!  (Never thought of that last time!)

  • Socks! Probably a few more washcloths and towels. Pump parts, pacifiers, bottle nipples. I already bought newborn diapers and a few OS, swaddle blankets, and have started on clothes. I also want a nice new sling!

  • Double stroller, boy colored Aden and anais swaddled blankets, rnp (we borrowed one last time but had to give it back), clothes. Would it be terrible to use a bunch of pink and girly diapers on him? Half my stash of bumgenius aios are pink.

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

  • Our big stuff from DD is all gender neutral, but her clothes are not so our little boy will need clothes. Also, I'd love a double stroller and a video monitor with two cameras. DD is still using her crib, so we bought another for this baby. He will also get new sheets, blankets, prob a few towels and washcloths. Also pacifiers and new bottles or maybe just nipples. I need to pull them out and take a look.

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

  • I need a new carrier, new monitor...always need new dipes, new bottles, and little crap like pacis and the like.  Nothing to get too excited over though.

  • Double stroller (just sold our single!), baby bjorn (I didn't like the ergo unfortunately), second camera for our video monitor, new pump supplies/bottle nipples, pacifiers. We find out id it's a girl or boy on Xmas eve - so if its a boy we will probably get stocked up on some clothes and some blankets that aren't pink :) I'm more worried about getting lexis bedroom ready! My goal is end of feb so she doesn't think that she is getting moved out for new baby. I was on bedrest at 33 weeks last time around and Lexi was 3 weeks early, so I need to plan ahead!

    Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!

  • we need everything except a crib and changing table.  after 8 years, it's either outdated or donated...and I haven't even started to wrap my head around a list.

    I DID find our old monitor (from 2005)...and it was a freaking gimormous TV-like screen, lol.
  • Double stroller
    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.

    I'm splurging on nicer versions of stuff we already have or wish I had. I want a pack of the bamboo swaddles by A&A, more washcloths, maybe I'll get those cheap gerber prefolds & make burp cloths, just got our double stroller while it was on sale, a second camera for our monitor, ordered a new mattress for the crib since it's a cheap one & DD hates it (had to put foam topper on it so she'd finally sleep in her crib). Got a newborn stash of cloth diapers! Super excited about that. Gender neutral clothes which I will probably get from once upon a child. A convertible seat for new baby, I'll probably wait until it's here so I can pick a color, I like pink stuff but won't do that to a boy purposefully. Bad enough if it's a boy he'll be in a bright pink floral seat until then!

  • I've been keeping a list on Amazon of the things I want more of or other things I've heard about that I want to give a shot.

    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.

  • Need a crib mattress, my sons is in his toddler bed now. Need extra cloth diapers- he will be 2 in Feb. so we will most likely have two in diapers for a while. we used a convertible carseat from the start, and have one in each car, so we have to decide if we now want 2 in each car. We borrowed my sister-in-law's infant seat for baby to sleep in for a few weeks because he wouldn't sleep in the cradle. They are due in June so I can't do that. Im thinking a rock n play instead.
  • My other two are 6 and 7. We had originally decided not to have more and then changed our minds, so we need everything!!!
  • 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.

  • I just got a BOB duallie on Craigslist for $250! That was a big thing! We really only need anther crib and another highchair/booster seat as far as big things go. And then bottle nipples and pump parts. DD is only 9 months old, so we obviously haven't gotten rid of anything yet, and they'll even be about the same season for clothing, so I really, really don't need to buy much at all.

  • I've already bought a sit and stand stroller (half price at target before we were even ttc) and a RnP (consignment), plus some newborn/3m clothes (also consignment) since many of dd's were ruined from poly vi sol. I'm making some sheets, changing pad covers, curtains and burp rags over my holiday break.

    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.

    Just wanted to mention on a side note that if you are just looking for a vitamin D this time around, you may want to try Carlson's vitamin D drops.  They are literally just one drop and they have very few ingredients!  We used the poly vi sol with DD at first and she always spit it right back up!

  • We need to buy a crib mattress since DS is using his in his toddler bed. I've been buying things here and there like a few baby carriers, newborn cloth diapers (started with DS when he was a few months old), and a JuJuBe diaper bag. We are set on newborn and 0-3m clothes. I'm trying to contemplate buying a bassinet or just setting up the crib in the bedroom.

  • We need clothes for our second son we are also buying one new set of bedding and nursery decorations because we want him to come home to something that is just his. We also need a couple pieces of furniture like a dresser for Noah and another changing table since I want on on both floors of the house. I'm thinking about a double stroller too.

    We have just about everything we need plus some.  We will be buying Beb a toddler bed and reusing our crib for 2.0.
    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.
    Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier - A second one, we love ours.
    Fisher-Price Cradle 'N Swing - We all hated our other one.
    Summer Infant Extra Camera for Video Monitor - Self explanatory.
    Britax Second Seat for B-Ready Stroller - We'd like to turn our travel system into a double.
    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
    KidCo Go Pod Portable Activity Seat
    Snuza Portable Baby Movement Monitor
    BABYBJORN Bouncer Balance Soft Cotton

  • I think a couple people commented on wanting a rnp and to try the Woombie.  GET BOTH!  We used the rnp soooo much.  and it was great while traveling! 
    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.

  • Got a double stroller and new convertible crib. If baby is a girl then I'll need a few girly blankies and girl clothes, but I have everything for a boy, just need a couple more crib sheets since DS is still in his crib. Find out on the 26th!

    If we only needed just D:/ I have a family history of anemia, and when checked DD was slightly anemic so poly vi sol it was. I hated that stuff and switched to flint stones the minute DD could chew them.

    @chellbell20 when we started using donor milk I started doing poly vi sol since I couldn't vouch for the diets of the donors & the "completeness" of the meal (for lack of better wording). I just ordered the Honest Company multivitamin & will definitely let you know how I like messing with a powder. But it's more complete than poly vi sol & hopefully doesn't smell like it!

  • Another monitor, a double stroller, a bassinet (our bedroom at this house is too small for the PnP DS slept in for 6 months), and we have to start all over with the baby's room and clothes since we have all boy stuff and this one's a girl.

  • Those in the bassinet market, we have this one and love it.  We will definitely be using it again.  It has an incline sleeper for the first couple months and then transitions to flat.

    • New carrier, really want to try the JJ Cole Agility.
    • New monitor
    • New diaper bag
    • Clothes if it's a boy

     

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • We need/want:
    - 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.
