Survey: Baby shopping: 3 things I wish I hadnt bought, 3 things Im glad I bought!
Hi ladies!
I thought it'd be fun to post about our baby shopping experiences, and help out other new moms too!
I just became a mom, and as a FTM after all my shopping I def learned a few things that I'd like to pass on to others. So here goes:
[b]3 things I wish I hadn't bought:[/b]
1. An expensive moses basket: I splurged on a 650dhs moses basket from Mamas & Papas and it serves the same function as a 150dhs moses basket from Babyshop would, DD doesnt like sleeping in it (shes a co-sleeper so far) and she's so tall looks like by the time she's 3 months she wont fit in it anymore anyways! Has no resale value either!
2. Lots of bottles of the same brand: I got lots of Avent bottles and accessories, and it turned out DD didnt take the teat! I then tried Tommee Tippee which she liked immediately, but all my Avent stuff was a waste!
3. Swadding blankets: Just buy one. I got loads of different types and since day 3 DD has hated swaddling, she screams the minute she realizes she cant move her arms! I recently watched 'Happiest baby on the block' and tried swaddling her again but no such luck, at 7 weeks old she seems set in her ways!
[b]3 things I'm glad I bought:[/b]
1. Tall changing station with built in tub: I have back problems and bending to change her and bathe her would absolutely wreck my back. This makes things so muchhh easier, all her changing and bath gear is one place too. The babyshop ones are good, cost around 300dhs, the mothercare one is 700dhs and I dont see why you would pay more for essentially the same thing.
2. A nice pushchair and car seat: I love my Maxi-cosi pushchair! I wouldnt have spent less (pushchair + car seat cost 3000dhs) because DD is really comfy in them, and I wouldnt compromise on that.
3. Sleeping bag: Since DD hates swaddling, these are great to keep her cosy at night,
and change her pamper without having to take off anything. With a blanket when you take it off to change ure baby, they feel cold all of a sudden and start crying).
So ladies, lets hear ure experience! :)
