SI have no specific suggestions of products, but I found a wee little baby needs very little. Focus on things that will help you help the baby and make things easier for you… untill they start moving about… then I’d look for stuff at local used shops/ websites. At that age kids outgrow things fast and people get rid of practically new stuff, and less disappointing if the kid doesn’t really care about it.
Someone mentioned window shades- I’d consider dark and ceramic tints on the windows if you’re keeping the car long term (assuming you have a car). It does help keep everyone cool and sun out of little eyes.
Uppababy and Nuna car seats were/are awesome. Generally a breeze to wash when needed and install. The uppababy stroller was a lifesaver too.
That said, the evenflow pivot explore wagon has been mediocre in my opinion. The canopy shades don’t like to stay on, it doesn’t fit well in our Mazda CX-30, and the handle rarely if ever folds out since it’s not easily maneuverable in that configuration.
Grab at least two of the silicone butt spatulas. We used them almost daily. Made applying Boudreaux’s Butt Paste a breeze.
Don’t forget to take time for yourselves as a couple and as individuals. It’s incredibly easy to get caught up in the day-to-day grind and forget/ignore those things. Your relationship will irrevocably change and it takes active care to be maintained/nourished.
Whale Watching is our favorite. Bandit and Chilli are hungover from a new years party but they still have to parent. That’s how the first two years of parenting felt for us due to the lack of sleep.
Cricket. The episode might not have the same impact for those outside Australia but the ending never fails to bring tears to my eyes. It helps that my daughter loves it too.
