 | Lansinoh 20265 Disposable Nursing Pads, 60-Count Boxes (Pack of 3)

|
 | Soothies Gel Pads for Nursing Moms
Buy new: $20.88 A must have for the first days of nursing...

 | Fisher-Price Papasan Cradle Swing - New Nature's Touch
Buy new: $199.99 The only reason I ate a meal in the first few months
|
 | Tiny Love Wonder Wheel
Buy new: $27.99 Very helpful if/when Baby has a car seat hating period - the lights and music entertain him for a little while and generally buy me about 10 minutes. For right now, I use the little steering wheel remote myself, but I think he will have fun playing with it when he gets bigger.
|
 | Boppy Bare Naked Expandable Miracle Middle Pillow
Buy new: $29.99 Wonderful pillow - I even brought it on a plane to help support my baby during a flight! Be sure to get more than 1 cover so that you can easily switch them out when one inevitably gets soiled.
|

Buy new: $199.99 We didn't get this infant carseat - but if we had the whole thing to do over again, I would get this one. Our friends have it and it is wonderful.
|
 | Dr. Brown's 2-pack 7-ounce Standard Feeding System Glass Baby Bottles
Buy new: $9.96 Wonderful bottles - we don't even need to burp our son after!
|
 | Medela Freestyle Breast Pump
Buy new: $349.99 Pricey, but worth it - particularly if you are going back to work. Pump is compact and quiet - I used a borrowed Pump InStyle Advanced from a friend for the first 2 months, but definitely prefer the Freestyle.
|

|
 | Canon Digital Rebel XT 8MP Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 Lens (Black)
Buy used from: $390.00 Ok, this is definitely a splurge item, but this camera takes amazing photos even if you don't know what you're doing (like me) - I am sure that if you do know what you're doing it will take even better photos! The fast shutter speed is a must for new babies!
