Budget what all do I need? First time mom what should I buy?

Question

I'm a first time mommy and wanted to know on a budget what are the NECESSARY items I will Need? 
:-) 
Any deals or specials going on please let me know

Answer

The only things that you absolutely need are a place for baby to sleep, bottles, car seat, diapers, clothes, soap, first aid kit etc. most everything else like swings bouncers are not necessity but nice to have and you can find some good deals on them at second hand stores. Usually in great condition because baby outgrows them. Babies r us already has their cyber Monday deals already going on. Amazon is where I ordered most of my stuff for much cheaper than other online stores. The best thing to do is just make a registry and wait until after your shower to see what you still need. At my shower and most I've been to you get tons of baby clothes diapers and blankets so I would hold off on those. The things I see least gifted are bottles and things to do with feeding or breast pumps etc if you plan on using one check with your insurance and see what they cover.

Answer

Go to babies r us and get their registry list. The. Sit down with a few moms and cut out what you don't need. All babies are different so keep an open mind. My daughter loved her bouncy chair but my best friend's son hated it.  The best advice I can give is register in stages. It can be super overwhelming. I went with my husband and parents to register for the big ticket items. The. Once we knew it was a girl we went back just my husband and I and registered for the rest.

Answer

You will save lots of money if you cloth diaper! And it's not that hard there Re lots of youtube videos explaining all the different options.

Answer

Insurance or wic should provide you with a breast pump or if you decide to formula feed wic will provide that but either way at some point you'll probably need bottles ( prefer Playtex premium nursers), diapers, clothes, blankets (both receiving and warm for when it's cold), baby shampoo, diaper cream, car seat, and wipes are the necessities and I really liked having a swing but clothes, swing, bottles can all be bought second hand either on garage sale sites on Facebook or second hand stores... Good luck

Answer

If you have them near you, once apon a child or kid to kid is a great second hand store.  They don't sell cheap looking things, they sometimes even have brand new items there.  I got 5 onesies for  $5 and halo sleep sacks for 5.  Plus the have other second hand items.  I love those two places.
