Baby shopping must haves?

Question

Hi ladies, I went shopping today and everything's so overwhelming. So many products and I have NO idea what I will need. What are your must haves for a 0-6 month year old? Ive heard so many women say they didn't use a few things they've bought and Im wanting to save some money where possible.

Answer

My daughter wore NB onesies for a while so some might say don't get them but, we needed them. 0-3 month onesies for sure.. Free and clear detergent for baby clothes..Burp clothes, and or Bibs and a few receiving blankets.. Diapers but not too many of the same size, buy one box at a time maybe. And wipes of course.. (we bought a diaper warmer and it sucks, drys out the wipes) shampoo and baby wash, wash cloths and towel/robe, baby tub.. something for baby to sleep in, blankets for naps, bottles and formula unless your EBF.. bottle cleaner and dry rack.. lots of water for yourself if breastfeeding.. 100% coconut oil or something for baby's hair, aveeno products are great for lotion and shampoo.. we actually use our bottle warmer, we barely use her boppy, a few toys for stimulation, she still prefers her pacifier from the hospital so we wasted money buying those 🤦🏽‍♀️, we have a sterilizer I still haven't used, a swing she barely uses because she gets tired of it quick, we bought an Eddie Bauer bookbag style diaper bag which I loooove.. and few outfits to go out in but she stayed in a lot so not too many.. she's only 3 months but I think we figured out fast that babies are pretty simple for the first few months. Eat, sleep, poop and repeat

Answer

not a lot . a place to sleep, a few swaddles (Halo makes great ones that zipper and Velcro), some clothes (they'll outgrow fast), a swing or rocker is super helpful. stroller, car seat
