do I need to buy my baby toys?

Question

My first baby is due in 2 months and I just realized I don't have any baby toys. Just a few stuffed animals. Do I need to get some? Any recommendations?

Answer

"Toys" no. Stuffed baby books with sensory stuff on it would be nice. But even then they don't really hold onto stuff for a few months.

Answer

maybe some teething toys for when they're a couple months old. otherwise you won't need any

Answer

I have found that they really do not need toys until 2-4 months old.  
 
I have toys only because I bought some for my niece who I babysit at my house.  Both my nephew and niece LOVE the smaller toys that light up and play music (baby Einstein and fisher price has a few).  I also have teethers for when he begins teething at a few months old.  
 
We have a lot of books (I was an English teacher before taking time off for the baby... so... hahahaha).  
 
I have cut myself off when it comes to toys though, hahahaha.

Answer

Nope! Eat sleep poop, those are all babies do for quiet some time.

Answer

I had stuffed Clifford dogs and such in red and black since supposedly babies notice those more. I had books though and a lot of them. I read to all 3 of my kids from day 1 and will with this baby also.

Answer

I have some for a bit later but ai think some toys that make a sound would be good. I looked on Pinterest for a list of milestones and how to develop the baby's brain by month and will be going off that. The first month they just recommend a lot of cuddling, comforting, music and things with high contrast colors close to baby's face because they can only see black/white 8-10 inches away.

Answer

I wouldn't worry about it unless you want to get those that hang on the car seat.

Answer

I didn't get any until my boys were around 4 months old so I think you're good .

Answer

I have a basket full that I'm not planning on even looking at until she's 6 months old. The only one I think she'll be interested in is the tummy time mat
