Future product spotlights

lovesclimbing · September 2018

It's been a month, so I will no longer be able to edit this first post as of tomorrow. Please see this comment (https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/comment/90846437/#Comment_90846437) for a current list of what has and has not been created.

I think a baby carrier thread is definitely a good one (possibly more if we wanted one per type), a car seat spotlight would be good too.
I think someone talked about discussing registries (places to register/what to register for) so that would be another one, although kind of unconventional in terms of “product”.

I agree that babywearing should be one. There are a lot of options I didn’t really consider the first time around.

Adding:
Babywearing
Bottles and bottle accessories
Swings, bouncers, activity centers
Carseats
Nursery decor/furniture
Diaper bags
Health/Medical stuff- clippers, nose suckers, medications, thermometers, humidifier.
Bathing stuff

Stuff for later that people might want to register for:
Feeding solids-bowls, spoons, bibs
High Chairs
Convertible car seats

Lol @meggyme I read @lovesclimbing post before I left work and had a list almost identical to yours by the time I got off the highway, but when I went to respond I forgot it all.

I was going to post about half what @meggyme said, but the whole list sounds good to me so far.

I just ran down the registry checklist I have from Target.

Maybe like a generic: "lifesaver" or "mom hack" product spotlight for things that we love but don't necessarily fit into a specific categroy

Anyone can start product spotlights. No need to go off the list if you think of something new! Tip: if you start one, put "product spotlight" as part of the discussion title. That will make it easier to search all the product spotlights.

In the below list, ones that have an X next to them and have already been created. To find them, click the "go" button in the search bar. This will take you to the advanced search. Enter "product spotlight" in the Title search box and hit go.

@meggyme I was just trying to search for these! Thanks for posting the links!!

meggyme · November 2018

@novelblessings no problem.

Also, it's probably getting close to baby shower time, so if anyone wants to cover something we haven't already done, post it here and we can prioritize those.

Can we do a product spotlight for Nursery Chairs? I am a FTM and am having issues deciding what is best and if it’s worth spending extra money on this item, etc.
