Are these things Necessary?

Question

hii first time mama & im adding stuff to my baby registry & starting to get things & was wondering if these things were necessary or just kinda useless & didn’t use them at all, I’ve heard mixed emotions about it>>>> 
Diaper genie or off brand version in general
Baby bullet with steamer
A whip warmer 
A changing table
A bottle warmer 
Boppy pillow
Thank youuu. Also what’s everyone’s must haves that I can add to my registry. Pls & thank you!

Answer

Everything is unnecessary in my opinion besides the boppy pillow I use that daily and have with every kid. It’s just an easy thing to carry around the house and out the baby down on

Answer

Change table and a bottle warmer are the only things that’s are really helpful and I could consider necessary on that list.
Baby would even eat purées until 6 months, so a baby bullet would be silly to put on a registry. A wipe warmer is nice, but you can rub a wipe between your hands to warm it up. A metal garbage can with a lid would just as well as a diaper genie and it’s under $50. And a regular pillow works just as well as a Boppy Pillow.

Answer

The only thing I personally used from that list was a boppy pillow & it changed. My. Life.!

Answer

Honestly as a ftm I asked this question too and everyone said something different. I think every baby is different and will prefer different things which I know doesn’t help. Honestly you’ll figure out what works for you and if you have an Amazon registry they are amazing with returns!
The only thing we have on that list is a bottle warmer which we use a lot (formula fed baby). There is sooo much trial and error in the end, I know it doesn’t help.
Something I didn’t even think to consider is joining a local trade/exchange group. I just now did that and I’ve been able to get rid of so much stuff we never used and couldn’t return in exchange for diapers/wipes/formula! Best of luck mama!

Answer

- I just got a changing mat and out it in the floor. You could also just get a mat and have it probable so you can change on the bed/couch/wherever
- doesn't need to be a diaper genie, but you DO need some sort of bin with a cover that closes! We use a (cleaned out) cat litter container. It fits in the bathroom and the lid snaps on. 
- I don't think a baby bullet is worth it. You can mash food with your fork, give them pieces, or puree something in a regular processor if you want to.

Answer

Never had any of that stuff except a boppy lounger because someone bought it for me and we did have a changing pad.

Answer

None of those are necessary

Answer

The only item I don’t own is the wipe warmer. Personally I think it’s useless and your baby will be perfectly fine with a regular wipe. We had the boppy lounger and the nursing one and I LOVED both of them. As for the changing table I do use my regularly, but my son is getting so tall now it’s getting harder for me to use it now that hes almost 1.

Answer

You can use a regular dresser and add a changing pad on top! That’s what we did. It was used frequently. We used the boppy pillow a lot, but nothing else on your list. Some moms find certain things that are super essential to how they run things/how their baby is and some find those items useless for them. So hard to say what will work for you!

Answer

Never used a diaper genie or wipe warmer. You can use a regular trash can for. Wipe warmer you can use regular wipes. Bullet, you can make baby food with a regular blender.
