Need shopping advice...

My mom is taking me shopping tomorrow for the baby. She is going to buy us the stroller/car seat which with my coupon should bring me to about $250. She said I can buy stuff up to $400. So my question is, what other necessity should I get? The nursery is complete, the only items we still need are for when he is older. I live in a 2 story house, but the only rooms upstairs are my daughter and stepdaughter, so I am not really sure a pack n play is needed....TIA!

i would do the exersaucer and high chair. (for us that price for both was just under $200) - so you may have to kick in.

diapers - i'd be worried about size - you may buy size 1 and the baby will not fit them....who knows!

hope i helped in SOME way!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Thanks Jess... I have been back and forth with this for the past week. My mom wants me to make sure that I get something useful. I definitely don't need anymore clothes, towels, blankets, etc. Thanks for the advice!!

the exersaucer we got - is a 3 in one....it's a saucer, a tummy time mat thing AND a play station once she's old enough to walk around it!!!!

there was a recall on it - but it was just a 'call us and we'll send you a part' thing...so i'm going to call them on monday and get the piece we need.

they DO have it at BBB still - it's the: Evenflo ExerSaucer Triple Fun Active Learning Center

My mom and I decided that with my 3 large dogs, a pack n play may come in more handy than I had originally thought.
