Overall tips:

  • You don't need 10 of everything. Start with a couple. If you find you use them/could use more, THEN buy them. Especially true for washcloths and towels. Half the time, we use adult ones and they work just fine for LO. (pacifiers, bottles, etc included in this!! Some LO's hate certain kinds, love other kinds). Don't bother with changing pad covers. They'll just get peed on. We have the waterproof changing pad which works just fine.
  • More clothes = more volume of laundry, more storage space for too small, current, and future clothing. Less clothes = laundry more often, but smaller loads and less overall storage space. Mix and match outfits are HUGE here. (ie: we were a strict "black and grey" base (bottoms, socks, shoes). We bought no navy blue and very little brown. Most bright color tops and onesies paired perfectly with blacks and greys, and we didn't have to buy tons of shoes to match certain outfits, etc. Playing dress up is fun, but keeping clothing simple and practical has saved us a TON of money in the past 2 years. Each season we have 2 "nice" outfits to go out in/celebrate holidays in. The rest is play clothes, simple clothes, etc.

    Specific items:

  • we liked the Avent bottle system. I bought a starter kit that came with everything we needed for the first 6mo. I liked that the pieces are all interchangeable with the spectra pump, and that they're even interchangeable with Avent sippy cups, etc. We made a pact to rinse bottles every night so we really didn't have too many. We had this, plus the 2 5oz spectra bottles that came with my pump + we bought 2 additional 9oz bottles. Later, we bought 2 sippy cups.
  • Get the ikea high chair. Cheap, disassembles for travel, and works great! SUPER easy to clean, and my 2yo still fits in it with no issues. Both grandparents have one at their house as well.
  • Skip baby carriers/swings/bumbo seat/etc until you think you need it. The only 'container' we had for LO was a rock and play (before all these issues) that we used as a bassinet. Otherwise, we'd prop him on the boppy pillow (that i used for breastfeeding) and he'd chill happily on the carpet. Some kids don't do well with this, but mine did. I would have wasted so much money/space on 'containers' that my LO quite frankly didn't need. Later on, we bought a doorway jumper which he loved!
  • Get a nose frieda and gripe water. We waited too long on both items.
  • The oxo wipe holder is one of the best items we own that was a surprise gift to us. We use amazon refill packages to fill it.
  • THIS BOOK. It sounds like you're going the 'minimalist/practicalist' route and this book was super helpful with making me realize that you just DONT NEED A TON OF KID STUFF. I've used so many 'adult items' to entertain and care for LO that it's ridiculous how many toys and other items we DONT have or need in our house!

    Don't skimp on carseats and strollers. We use the keyfit carseats. Both grandparents had extra bases in their cars so all we had to do was 'click in' the seat to the base if traveling with them. SUPER convenient and well worth the cost if you're constantly switching cars. The citi mini stroller has been amazing for us as well. Love the one-hand fold!
