2 under 2 moms??? AND Moms on 2nd or 3rd etc pregnancies!

Since I see there are a ton of us on here, yay! I wanted to ask you girls what you need to buy for #2.

My mom wants a list now so she can buy stuff little by little, as well as us lol, so do you guys have a certain list?

TIA!

I have a small registry... just so i can keep track. It's got bottle nipples, BFing supplies, towels, washcloths, nightgowns, and extra video camera, new pacifiers, a 2nd diaper genie, a new bouncer (ours broke) and a newborn to toddler rocker for DS so he doesn't feel left out Chat Icon

We are re-using all of our other things, we bought gender-neutral stuff last time since we knew we wanted them close together.

That's what I'm doing also! So much easier to track stuff, plus love the completion discount lol.

Isn't the newborn to toddler rocker also a bouncer? DS hated his bouncer so we returned it, so I'm going to try with this baby, but I thought to just get the rocker instead.

Thanks for your list!

We bought another convertable crib rather than put Madelyn in a toddler bed (she was barely 17 months old when Eliza was born).

We waited until after Eliza got here to get the double stroller because I wanted to really "test drive" the strollers.

I also go all new collection cups and membranes for my Medela pump.

We also got another monitor because we still used a monitor in Madelyn's room. I bought the monitor in a consignment shop to save $$$.

We also got a booster seat that Madelyn moved to once it was time for Eliza to use the high chair. She LOVED using a "big girl" chair.

Most of my list has already been mentioned

- second camera for the monitor
- new nipples
- new pump supplies
- possibly a second pack and play for the new baby to sleep in until DS is ready for a toddler bed. Im not buying a new crib.

i also need a new diaper bag, mine is falling apart.

We kept everything from DS, I just went through it last weekend.

Like LB, I created a small registry to help me organize what I need to buy. I have things like...
- Video Monitor & Extra monitor (we never got one for DS #1 and I regretted it).
- bottles & accessories
- humidifier
- double stroller
- infant car seat
- convertible car seat
- BF supplies

Thanks everyone! I like my list is good now, just have to find those extra pieces to my medela pump because I can't seem to find anything on BRU website.

Pretty much what everyone else posted.

We're getting:
new nipples
new binkis
double stroller
Convertible carseat for our will be 13 month old.
Another Infant to Toddler Rocker( as my DD will be devastated if she loses hers. she loves it!)

Everything else we're planning on reusing. We're waiting on another crib and may try to use the PNP. And we'll switch my DD into the convertible carseat and use the infant seat for the new baby.

And of course....If we have a boy(we already have 2 girls) we're getting stuff that's not pink...lol...link washclothes and towels and of course boys clothes.

Re: 2 under 2 moms??? AND Moms on 2nd or 3rd etc pregnancies!

We'll be 2 under 3. I haven't really started thinking about much yet. The one thing I really want is some kind of carrier - sling, Baby Bjorn. Didn't get it with #1, but I think it would be super helpful with this one.

We're also on the fence about a double stroller. DD will be 33 months when #2 arrives, so I'm thinking a sit-n-stand will be enough, but I'm afraid if we're at the mall or something, the total freedom she will have to take off if my back is turned for a sec.

The rest of the big stuff we bought neutral, so we will be reusing.

We have to buy new:

~ new nipples
~ new bath towels (even if #2 is also a girl, I feel like hers took a beating)
~ new binkies

Our DD is only 7 months old now so we have pretty much everything we need. If the new baby ends up being a Chat Icon, then we'll need clothes and things like that. But other than that, we'll probably just need to get a good double stroller, we need a convertible seat for DD so new baby can move into her car seat, and another high chair.
