[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a win/win proposal for you.  You can save a fortune on all the baby crap by buying the substantial majority of it used (except for the car seat, buy that new).  Take the money you saved from buying baby stuff used and use that for the backsplash.

Getting baby stuff new is generally a rip off and you can get baby stuff in excellent condition on CL or FB Marketplace for 10-20% of the retail price.[/quote]

Truth. And you don’t need matching nursery suites. A good crib is under $500. [/quote]

OP here. My wife likes things to match. We will be getting everything to match. We will be buying a nursery set mostly like from PotteryBarn. She really likes those and says they’re high quality. [/quote]

I was just about to say, let me guess, she wants a matching set from Pottery Barn Kids.

Oh man, you are in for it.  It is cheap crap, but they make it look really pretty and so UMC that all the first time basic moms buy it up.

I really hope she didn’t furnish the condo with the same quality mass market mall store furniture.  Did you start a thread about her wanting the Pottery Barn baby furniture and then argue with everyone about how she only likes “high quality” stuff? And is this the same wife that only wants to eat organic and has you getting meat delivered from “local farms.”  I bet yes it is[/quote]

OP here. A friend of ours recommended the PotteryBarn stuff but we are looking around. She hasn’t decided what she wants. We probably won’t go with PotteryBarn because I heard the shipping takes months.

We got nice furniture from a variety of stores and nothing from PotteryBarn. Never started any thread on baby stuff or food. We don’t eat organic most of the time and we don’t really know what we want for any baby stuff. She is looking up reviews on things. [/quote]
