I wil...Unsolicited advise from the sister in law... I will help you with baby planning if you will plan my wedding! <br /><br />#1- You need a glider with something to put your tired feet up- super comfy and head resting place are essential. You will spend many nights here =)<br />#2- It sounds weird but any bouncer, bassinette, pack and play, etc need to have a vibrate feature. It's like a snooze button on your daily alarm. You will use it and love it! <br />#3- Boppy- is a MUST have baby feature. Makes life easier for you and the baby<br />#4- Pampers swaddlers and sensitive wipes- Kendra NEVER had diaper rash. They are the best!<br />#5- I loved Avent bottles- easy to wash and hold. Invest is a good pump... you feel like a MOO cow but it makes life easier (drink wine... no problem...pump and dump)<br />#6- There are no blankets or pacifiers better then the hospital kind. "Borrow them" when you leave- I spent hours trying to find the hospital style and never found it!<br />#7- lap pads are necessary- just trust me on this one!<br />#8- Find a stroller that easily slides into the car but you can snap the carseat into. Never wake a sleeping baby... this will help!Lucky Bridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02800999334754576227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9154551621055817860.post-51881340143443514682009-11-20T08:14:47.641-07:002009-11-20T08:14:47.641-07:00I agree with Becky...go with the cheap stuff! Ser...I agree with Becky...go with the cheap stuff! Seriously, these babies grow out of everything so fast I look at things we have in the closet that have only been used once. <br /><br />TIP for the chair: From my experience, you want a rocking chair that is of course comfortable, but one that allows you to rest your head back. Some of those sofa chairs don't do that, and I can tell you, even still feeding Ty before bed after a long day at work, its great to just rest my head and relax.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09360836201998101095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9154551621055817860.post-85574853518110915102009-11-19T19:44:57.581-07:002009-11-19T19:44:57.581-07:00oh my.... do we have to be reminded AGAIN that El...oh my.... do we have to be reminded AGAIN that Elaine's "nursery" was the dining room of an one bedroom "apt"in married student housing ( UCLA.. go BRUINS !!)..with a panaromic view and sound of the 405 freeway..

So that less expensive car seat has met the same standards as the super pricey one. It just has fewer "options" on it.J, B, O, J & Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11443621793199573275noreply@blogger.com
