      Congrats! Research love, do lots! I put so much on my registry and returned so much after I found out things were not safe or useful. Examples are bumpers, they are banned in some states. Cribs shouldn’t have blankets, pillows or toys in them. Bumbos are not recommended by doctors as they don’t really help development. Baby mirrors in the car can be a danger as well as sun screens that pull down. They become flying objects in an accident. Also those extra pads you can buy for car seats or strollers are also considered unsafe. Some doctors or nurses will not let you leave the hospital if you have them installed. Anyway, things you never thought of and saw other ppl have are not always needed or even safe. Good luck to you and your wife!!

      Exactly, if you choose to get that I would suggest to get a router just for it, lock it so no machine can connect, make the manual registration of the machines and turn invisible for the house router. That way no other machine can find and connect, only pre registered machines can, you have to connect the computer directly through a cable to access it, and set this things.

      You want to put baby in a sleep sack to prevent their feet from getting between the crib rails. When they transition out of the sleep sack they’re old enough and easily capable of moving their feet out of the rails on their own.

      Using formula milk safely
      Powdered infant formula must be prepared as carefully as possible.
      It is not sterile, even though packets and tins of powder are sealed. Formula can contain bacteria such as Cronobacter sakazakii and, more rarely, salmonella.
      If the feed is not prepared safely, these bacteria can cause infections.
      This is rare, but can be life threatening.
      Very young babies are most at risk and it is better to use liquid ready-to-feed products for premature or low birth weight babies.
      It is essential to make up a fresh bottle for each feed and to throw away any unused formula within two hours.

    Side note about the pumps. A lot of people get the spectra S2 free from insurance then just buy a $30 battery pack and Velcro it to the pump to make it portable like the S1. You can save a lot of money that way especially if the pump is free from insurance.

    You just have to make sure you're using the right setting on the brezza. It's calibrated to measure the powder correctly. There's a difference in consistency between hand made formula and machine made.
    Doesn't mean it's incorrectly mixed. Ppl have tried bunking it but the results are negligible. Personally, I wouldn't spend $200 on one when mixing formula ain't that hard. I do recommend their instant bottle warmer that dispenses warm water (don't have that either or any warmer but it seems awesome). I just keep hot water in a thermos for my baby's bottles since I mix cold boob juice in them as well. It works. All the other tips I totally agree with and use. Tommee tippee formula dispensers are the absolute best at night especially. I use formula within 1 hour during the first 3 months but I use within 2 hours after that (bc my baby takes long breaks during her feeds and when mixing with breastmilk it's complicated and I try not to waste by making small bottles but still...). 1 hour is the most conservative recommendation for liability reasons. It's wise when you have a newborn or medically fragile baby, but I've never had issues with using formula within 2 hours. To each her own though. I'm the type who'll eat meat that's been sitting out for 12 hours after reheating it lol.

    For myself personally....
    The wipey warmer was good for the first three weeks. My son hated the cold until randomly he was okay with it. Add water if they are dried out as well that’s what we did and it worked great.
    The mobile.....my son actually loves this. He literally loves the noise and how it moves. It’s a calming technique for him. He’s 3 months.
    Swaddle me.....these are absolutely amazing! My son absolutely has to be swaddled. Again all babies are different, but he loves them and the sleep sacks from Target.
    An alternative to the tub is the one they sell through Walmart that monitors the temperature and their weight
    The bobby pillow is amazing for breastfeeding. I absolutely loved that one, but the pillow she recommended is a 10/20. It’s amazing and was a game changer for myself.
    The baby brezza is amazing. The only thing is you have to make sure the settings are correct so it makes the formula correctly. You also can’t have the formula below the line because yes then it will only be water and not formula. Also it has a temperature setting and my baby loves the highest temperature for his milk, which is convenient. Also makes night time feedings a lot easier.
    I should add that every parent is different and she had amazing advice for a lot of different things. I wish I had watched this video before I had my baby as well.

    I like those crib sets because it grows with the baby. You can get creative with the decals- put them in frames and make them look like pieces of art. And then the quilt it comes with is perfect for when you transition your crib into a toddler bed. You can also use the quilt for Tummy Time and as a blanket in general because kids become adddiictteeddd to blankets and want to carry them everywhere around the house. I've even seen people use that quilt comforter on a dowel and makes a beautiful art piece too!

    First time father here, and to speak on the Baby Brezza. Thought it was the coolest moat convenient baby item ever. Was nice in the middle of the night to be able to just throw the bottle under the spout without having to lay baby down or have to turn on all the lights and rattle a bunch of canisters and so on around. After 3 days of use I noticed the milk was getting thinner and thinner. So on inspection of the machine the formula actually gets stuck on the funnel where it enters the bottle. When I opened the machine up there was at least enough formula stuck in the spout for at least 2 bottles. Would NEVER reccomend that until it gets a redesign.

      Using formula milk safely
      Powdered infant formula must be prepared as carefully as possible.
      It is not sterile, even though packets and tins of powder are sealed. Formula can contain bacteria such as Cronobacter sakazakii and, more rarely, salmonella.
      If the feed is not prepared safely, these bacteria can cause infections.
      This is rare, but can be life threatening.
      Very young babies are most at risk and it is better to use liquid ready-to-feed products for premature or low birth weight babies.

    I love the candid approach to baby product regrets. Unlike other videos, you don't make everything a disclaimer ("it is completely fine if it worked for you"). New parents need humor and honesty. The Pack & Play is such a great idea. In addition to it working as a bassinet, you can move it around to the most convenient place. Then, you can continue having a baby nap or play in there so when it's time for vacation, baby feels secure in their sleep spot. They are so easy to strip sheets if you have an extra pukey baby. People get so caught up in maxing the comfort-level of their babies. While newborns, infants and children ALL need safety, nurturance and security, our bodies natural signs of discomfort help us learn self-regulation. Also, babies who sleep without being able to recognize their own hunger cues ('dream feed) or are swaddled so tightly it disables all reflexes, could be a contributor to SIDS. It's good to tame the startle reflex to prevent constant waking, however, sardine baby is unhealthy for extended hours.
