Stroller, crib (for later), car seat, baby bath tub, bassinet, wipe warmer (helped mine stay rash clear), camera/baby monitor, sound machine, Mama & Wish postpartum kit (you need stuff too to recover), diaper bag, baby wrap carrier, nursing pillow, breast pump, baby hooded towel, diaper pail,changing pad/basket/topper, activity gym, snuggle lounger, black and white tummy time items ( Wee gallery has great stuff), depending on what you plan on doing feeding wise or backup up: bottle warmer, sanitizer, bottles

I have brands that I love and still use for the above if you need any specifics I can send my registry from last year!

This is such a helpful jumping off point, especially in terms of what you can buy later: https://alphamom.com/pregnancy/ultimate-baby-registry-checklist/

For us: Baby Jogger stroller, bloom mini crib (rolls, we used as bassinet too), bloom crib mattress , doona car seat (not worth it imo, son outgrew at 7 months by height), baby monitor, solly baby wrap, Chicco sidekick hip seat carrier, any wooden activity gym. We skipped: bassinet, wipe warmer, diaper bag, nursing pillow, lounger, swing, bottle warmer, baby towels, diaper pail, and we used Munchkin microwave sterilizer bags that fit my pump stuff too (pump was through insurance). We used a folding Gathre mat (Mini+ size) to change baby on the bed, sofa, floor. But I’m in a small space! Seconding Wee Gallery, we loved their stuff. I liked the Earth Mama perineal spray and Tucks pads for postpartum.

If breastfeeding get boob pads on Amazon. This way when you leak you’re good and you can wash them.

Ask your insurance about breast pumps

2 bottle warmers if your sleeping upstairs . We kept one down in the kitchen and one in my sons bathroom. We got a small lunch box with ice packs and would put pumped milk in it at night or bottles in there at night so I didn’t have to go up and downstairs all night. Def helped me, my husband, and family when they came to help

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!

Advice

Ok so I had this friend and she would always talk about how it was so embarrassing to post your face on tinder or any kind of dating/friendship platform because it makes you look desperate. This has stuck with me soo much over the years, I always post anonymously. I really want a friend just 1 friend that I can go out n do stuff with and we just click but I refuse to post my face on any friendship platform, also because I might see someone I know and I literally HATE the idea of that. I feel so stuck, because I’m not the type of person to go out a lot I go to work and come home and when I do go out to parks and stuff there’s literally never any moms that try to strike up conversation. I really wanna get on bumble bff to try it out but it makes it to where you have to post your face. PLEASEEE any advice would help. I get bumble bff go through the people and then I delete it within like 5 minutes because I see someone I know.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
