Help please.
I am 33 weeks today and started to make a shopping cart on Diapers.com (I am in the US - I have a 15%off coupon) of things I did not get at my shower last week.
The total came out to 108.65.
Our budget is very tight due to an unexpected financial pitfall shortly after we conceived.
There are plenty of other things I want/need but right now I am just trying to get the bare minimum in case baby comes early (a higher possibility for me).
So, do I need all of these things?
(Or, do I need much more of some of these things right away, or can it wait?)
Here's the list:
Pediacare Infant's Acetaminophen Fever Reducer/Pain Reliever 2 oz
$7.29
Little Remedies Little Noses Stuffy Nose Kit (spray + aspirator bulb) .5 oz
$5.59
Naty Eco-Sensitive Nursing Pads - 30 ct
$5.29
Summer Infant Comfy Bath Sponge (I do not have a baby bathtub)
$5.99
J L Childress Full Body Changing Pad (do not have a changing table - diaper bag came with very small pad)
$12.91
Munchkin Bottle & Nipple Brush
$3.99
Avent Natural Glass Bottle 8 oz (bottles only. times 2)
$19.62 (for 2) (we have one other bottle the avent natural (plastic) 4 ounce)
Avent Natural Nipple - Slow Flow - 2 Pack
$5.38
Avent Soothie (pacifier/dummy) 0-3 Months - 2 pack
$3.79
Bumkins Waterproof Zippered Wet/Dry Bag
$13.45 (we have 1 wet bag, with no dry compartment and I was told more than one would be needed)
My Brest Friend All-Natural Organic Nipple Cream - Lanolin Free - 2 oz
$12.29
WaterWipes Baby Wipes 240 ct
$15.99
-----------
That's it - a few of the other things I would really like but figured were non-essential and stopped myself were:
-A hands-free pumping bra
-Swaddler sacks/sleep sacks (we have one Woombie and plenty of muslin cloths).
-A better nasal aspirator besides just the bulb (bebesounds electric - I cannot do nosefrida, please don't suggest it).
Thanks for looking, any and all advice from experienced moms is very much appreciated!!
