[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd definitely put a car seat on your registry. Hopefully you'll have the shower at like 30 weeks pregnant (not 38 like my inlaws thought was fun so they could "see me really pregnant" when I wasn't even supposed to be traveling that late). If you go into labor before 30 weeks, you would still have time to get a car seat (2 day amazon delivery!). Car seats, cribs and strollers usually always show up at the showers I've been to. Usually those are presents that parents or grandparents give to the new baby.

Definitely never needed a bottle warmer.

Things I'd focus on would be getting the nursery set up. I really enjoyed painting, decorating and sorting my nursery when pregnant. It helped me imagine the baby and kept the anxiety away that I wasn't doing enough. Also, having organizational stuff ready was great for when the onslaught arrived.

I have a 4 month old right now and I'm almost ready to move her into size 4 diapers. I've only used 2 boxes size 1 (squeezed her in until they were used up), 2 boxes size 2, 1 box size 3. She was 9lbs and didn't fit into the newborn diapers the hospital gave us. [/quote]

OP here, thanks for this. What types of organizational stuff was helpful? We had heard that a nursery wasn't really used until 6 months with the baby in some kind of bassinet by the bed. Has that been your experience? [/quote]
