What do I need to buy for baby # 3

I know this has been asked before but can't find it in a search.

What do I need to buy for baby # 3 (or 2 for that matter).
I plan on going out today and I just sat down to write a list and I'm blanking.

I am team Chat Icon and I have Chat Icon Chat Icon twins so I don't need new pink/blue stuff.

I plan to bf and pump.

Thanks!!!!!

Diapers. Chat Icon

Im kidding but id imagine you probably have everything you need

Good luck- how exciting!!

Maybe new pump parts and bags for bm? A cooler bag if you're pumping at work? A bigger diaper bag? Carseat ?

If your bottle feeding b/m then either new bottles or just new nipples for bottles. Pacifiers if you plan on using. Burp cloths, bibs....I guess it really depends on how much you saved.

Maybe a few new blankets depending on how worn the ones you saved are, some hooded bath towels, new bottle nipples, another baby camera/monitor if you need it, crib, mattress, bedding set, pacis if you are using.

That's all I can think of for now. I'm sure more will come to me.

Re: What do I need to buy for baby # 3

I would get new:
bottles/nipples
pacifiers
wash cloths (so they are soft)
I would go through all of your old items and see what is in good condition.
Toothbrush teether (I like Nuk the two set that look like an early toothbrush)
Hairbrush/comb
diapers
wipes
onintments
tylenol drops
meylocon drops
gauze pads

Do you need a double or triple stroller? How old are you car seats? If they are more than 6 years old then you might need a new one. Did you keep everything? Did anything break?

eta: I would see if your bedding is rough. My friend said she was really shocked how rough her baby towels and bedding got after being in storage. They were more worn out than she remembered and time did them in.

I had #3 after a large gap between #2 and #3. I gave away or sold most things after #2, so I had to get things again for #3.

I didn't buy much new. I got a ton of things second hand in excellent condition and it was perfect! Some of those things we've already passed on again!

Things I did buy were a new Britax Marathon, since he will use that from about 6 months old to at least 4 or 5 years old. The infant car seat I got second hand and he used it for about 6 months. The Marathons I had from #1 and #2 were expired anyway. I took advantage of the BRU trade in event last year.

I also got a new high chair. He'll use that from about 4 months to 2.5 years old or so.

Everything else came second hand, like the exersaucer, rock and play, activity mat, Baby Bjorn, etc.

I'm due with my DC3 - team Chat Icon - at the end of March too. This is my list:

boy and girl coming home outfits
New nursing cover
glider (never had one with the other two)
new tummy time mat (our old one tore)
New bouncer
Bottles
Diapers
New diaper bag (old one tore)
Paint for nursery


After baby is born:
Some clothes (I'll need more if this baby is a boy since my son was born in mid summer)
Bedding and decor (I'm picking everything out beforehand and buying online once baby is here)
