Baby Stuff.

After having the baby I have realized which products are good and which ones aren't needed. At least for me. We have a bottle warmer, used it a few times. Since the baby doesn't take a bottle, not useful. Even if she did, still not that useful. I have a few of those sleep positioners, just one is necessary. Now she is 4 months, and we no longer use them. The incline to sleep we used the most. The pack n play, those things are a must have. We also have a Bjorn. We have used it, but there are cheaper carriers out there, half the price actually. I just got a playtex hip carrier, much more useful now that the baby is older. Since our baby won't take a bottle, the bottles and formula I bought prior to her birth, not useful. And pacifiers, don't need those. The glider we have in her room is nice, but I only really used it the first 2 months. It is hard to breast feed in, and since I no longer rock the baby to sleep I don't use it much, but it is a comfortable piece of furniture. Cradles and basinets are also good to have, because really the baby probably won't sleep in it's own crib until around 6 months. And pampers are the most expensive diapers, those things suck. I have had more piss and shit come out of that brand than any other brand. Huggies are good, even the Target brand of diapers are good, they just don't have the nice elastic bands, but they will hold the shit in. I also got some of those halo sleep sacks, and swaddle me things, used them a few times, after the baby is older, like past 3 months, probably not necessary, we only used ours like the first 3 weeks. Now we just put a light blanket on her and dress her appropriately for bed. Baby monitors are a must have, and I do recommend the video monitors, they cost more but it is nice to be able to check on them without having to go in the room to see them, which could wake them up, which you don't want to do.
