![]() | Kiddopotamus Duomat 2 in 1 Car Seat Protector Mat Buy new: $19.95 Protects from indentations to your car's seats caused by the car seat. Necessary for vinyl/leather seats. |
![]() | Sunshine Kids Easy View Back Seat Mirror Buy new: $12.79 This straps to the head rest so that you can see your little one in the rearview mirror (see picture). This particular mirror is nice and big, straps securely, and doesn't have stupid animals on it. |
![]() | Maclaren Easy Traveller Stroller Black and Silver Buy new: $80.00 A car seat stroller is great because you can just move the baby out of the car and into the stroller, often without them waking up. This won't be our last stroller, but it was a good no-brainer choice for the first months. It's lightweight, folds easily, and steers well. It's also not that expensive. |
![]() | Tadpoles Toile Moses Basket in Black Buy new: $86.88 We don't have this particular one, but one very similar. I didn't understand the point of this thing until the baby arrived. Now I get it: you need a place to put the baby when he/she sleeps during the day. Our baby loves hers. |
![]() | BabyBjörn Baby Sitter 1-2-3 City Blue Buy new: $109.00 This comes in handy when you're trying to do things like eat dinner, go to the bathroom, etc. Keeps them secure and they like the bounce. No batteries: you supply your own bounce. This one is very well made, unlike some others that may be more attractive. |
![]() | Simmons Kids Contour Dressing Table Pad with Non-Skid Bottom Buy new: $29.99 Note: you don't actually need a changing table. We didn't use one and instead brought this into whatever room we were in. If you do that, you'll want some caddy with all your diaper gear. |
![]() | Extra-Thick Cotton Terry Changing Pad Covers - Set of 2 Buy new: $17.99 We don't actually have these particular covers. You can find a lot of really nice ones elsewhere. But you do need more than one: two at least, three to be safe. |
![]() | Seventh Generation Baby Wipes 80 Ct Tub/Pack of 8/640 wipes Buy new: $89.99 So far, these wipes offend us the least. |
![]() | Seventh Generation Baby Wipes Refills, Chlorine Free and Unscented, 80-Count Packs (Pack of 12) (960 Wipes) Buy new: $41.99 You need a LOT of wipes (but only one tub) |
