Advantages Downside Note: Buy only necessary items if

you have space constraints or if you

dont want to spend too much as

Baby items are expensive and they

outgrow faster. 2)

Again do your research and make

your own decision while buying theitems as they always have new

brands coming

Safety wise good rating 1) Heavy The First Car Seat can be used only

until the baby is 20 lbs..so look for

something that's not too expensive

(but safe).Being used by a fourth baby

and still going strong

1) Babies out grow this carseat

quite fast. (26 inches length)

2) Color is black, some people

don't prefer that, for us it was

not an issue

rated #1 its one time expense

as you can use this car seat

from infant stage to age 7

Expensive

Graco - ( again getting used by

4th baby. )

Cheap and very light. You can

snap on the infant car seat to

this stroller

Can be used only till you use the

infant sar seat.

Style and Sturdy

1) Did not have to worry if you

are throwing your hands or legs

around is not sharing your bed

and you have enough room to

accomodate the crib 2)

Easier to feed by bringing one

side down and putting it closer

to your bed so you dont have to

bend and get the babyeverytime it cries

Sometimes babies get used to

sleeping next to you and looks it

gets difficult to put them

separately

Note: Putting the baby in the crib in

a separate room or making them lye

next to you is all personal

preference based on how you want

to bring your baby - So accordingly it

could be a Comfort/Necessary

Accessory

This can be used for a longer

time compared to other

bouncers


7/10

1) Has been very useful in

putting the baby to sleep. 2)

Buy it now so that you can

relax in it esp in your last

trimester.

1) Comfort Accessory -

Occupies space

2) Not a good habit to rock child

to sleep.

Did not buy a crib or bassinet

and used it for around a year

Good if your baby has a liking

to sleep in it.

Expensive and Not battery

operated

Very good for babies, very

useful to put to sleep

Useful provided your baby

enjoys the swing part of it

Found Pampers to be a bit

better in terms of leaks

Pampers is not sold by Costco

now, so I get Huggies for now

Diaper Champ does not need

refill bags, U can use regular

trash bags

Diaper genie needs its own refill

bags, but i think it gives better

smell control

Need to select one around 29-

33 weeks

This is a preventive one - can

be used afetr every diaper

change


8/10

should not be required to start

with but may be needed after

the first vaccination shots.

Good to have

Initially use your teeth to

remove their nails

Mittens are very helpful until the

babies are 5-6 mons so the baby

does not have nail scratches

got the one with lenses which

magnify the nails

Dreft is supposed to be very

gentle for baby skin

The smell of milk doesn't seem

to go away if you wash with

Dreft

Buy it online as it cheaper


9/10

500 calories more than the

prepregnancy calorie intake is

needed it seems

Domperidone Side affects

ventaire system does not

let the kids swallow air ( as

compared to other bottles ).

Baby didnt like the slow flow

nipple, so we use different

nipples now.

the medela bottles are ideal for

storing. You dont have to

necessarily buy medela bottles,

if you are thinking of

buying some more bottles

separately for storing milk. You

can use any bottle

( the 9oz gerber bottles ) are

very good for storing too. All

the bottles will fit the pump

nicely as they are the standard

size

Rated No 1

Dont consider buying them

Very useful

Avent sterilizers will not work

with

other brand of bottles as it

especially designed for Avent

bottles

Used for all standard bottles

and costs half of Avent

sterilizer
