What's your most regretted purchase??

Geegees · Jan 27th, 2013, 11:13 AM

Mine is the travel system! We spent a fortune and have used it about 3 times!!
We use the sling all the time.

If you knew then what you know now.. What wouldn't you have brought??

Her infant car seat. We used it for the first 3 months and she hated it. It was also so heavy and awkward to carry that it was easier just to take her out of it than to try to carry her in it, so I might as well have bought a convertible seat from the get-go anyway.

Moses basket and baby bath. She was too big for both and hated the Moses basket from the start xx

Bumbo, although the MIL and FIL did buy it!

Probably my arms reach cosleeper. My mil talked me into getting the big one instead of the mini when we are all squished in one room..
If im honest I regret where I registered for my baby shower, its a smaller mostly online store with a smaller selection, it has some good stuff but I feel like I would have gotten much more things I needed and wanted if I went to babies r us. Im actually pretty upset about it because when I look at all the stuff they have there I wish I had seen it all before. They have the cutest pack n plays and bath tubs and so much stuff I wish I had gotten... Ugh!

Too many to list, I went a bit mad when pregnant

But to name a couple:
Moses basket and crib, she hated both so ended up buying an Amby.
Changing table, it's currently the resting place for a basket of ironing
Too many outfits, she spends most of her time in babygrows
A travel system before finding out her sex, went straight out and bought a different one and struggling to sell the 1st.
Microwave steriliser, cold water one is sooo much better as I can just leave things in until I need them. Struggled to find one in shops though and had to go online.

There's probably more but if I think of them I'll get depressed about all the money I wasted

The bumbo chair, she wouldn't be put down for the first 7 months of life and got upset in it after a few minutes

So much! Wipe warmer, pack and play is only used for a changing table and is about to be packed up for more room, lots of clothes unworn, and probably half of his toys, he'd rather play with a wipe or water bottle! Luckily, a lot of these things were gifts, but still feel bad for the wasted money!

Oh and the diaper genie! Nice idea but the odor that comes out of that thing is horrendous!
