What Not to Buy for a New Baby


|

Rate:

By Lisa Poisso

When there’s a new baby on the way, busy parents want affordable, practical solutions – not a lot of unnecessary gear. While innovative products are making infant care easier than ever in some ways, experienced parents often find that the simplest solutions are the best.

Parents simplify for many reasons. Some don’t have much money to spend on baby gear. Others don’t have space in their homes for a lot of unnecessary gadgets. Second-time parents often find that it’s easier to fill a need with something they already have. And many families subscribe to the growing trend toward simplifying their lives, from the workplace to home.

Before you sign up for a gang of gift registries and a flurry of baby showers, consider whether simplifying and streamlining might be more practical for you and your family. Think about dropping these items from your handy-dandy list of must-have’s.

=================================

Baby bathtubs
Bulky storage and a limited size/age range make baby bathtubs prime candidates for pruning off a must-have list. Many parents take their babies into the bath or shower with them; you can tag-team with your partner, handing baby out for drying while you finish up. Small, blow-up air pillows and towels provide padding and insurance against slipping for baths in a dishpan or the kitchen sink. Wobbly sitters will feel secure in a plastic laundry basket set inside the big bathtub.

Baby laundry detergent
While it’s true that many babies do have sensitive skin, most babies don’t need special detergents. Buy a “free/clear” formula and avoid unnecessary dyes and fragrances for the whole family. Test new products by washing and using a few items of clothes before washing all of baby’s clothes, sheets and towels.

Bottles
A given if you are planning to work and pump, bottles may prove to be completely unnecessary if you’re going to breastfeed at home. Many breastfed babies progress straight from the breast to sippy cups by six or seven months of age.

Breastfeeding clothes
Some women feel more comfortable wearing specially designed nursing clothing that helps them breastfeed discreetly, but others find that the special buttons, snaps and openings are more trouble than they’re worth. Before you invest a lot of money in these often pricey specialty clothes, test out a style or two (and don’t forget your own clothing!) to see what works best for you.

Changing tables
Changing tables become precarious places to perch wiggly older babies. You can change your baby on a bed, couch, big chair or the floor. Tuck supplies into a dresser or bookcase, or station several baskets around the house for extra convenience.

Cribs
Keeping your baby close at night simplifies things for everyone. Breastfeeding mamas have known for years that nursing in bed at night helps a mother snatch every precious second of sleep. Little bed-sharers can eventually move from your bed to a bed of their own – or even a comfy pallet or small mattress on the floor nearby. Don’t underestimate the power of flexible sleeping arrangements that change as baby grows.

Diaper pails
The simplest and least expensive solution for dirty diapers is that old stand-by, a plastic flip-top trash can from the discount store. Buy one with a lid that pops up with the push of one hand or foot.

High chairs
High chairs are high-profile items that gobble up floor space. Because you shouldn’t start solids until your baby can sit up well on her own anyway, you don’t need equipment that reclines. Try a booster seat that attaches to your table or chairs. You’ll save money and room, and your baby will feel more like a part of the family sitting at the table with the big people.

Pajamas
Babies grow so fast! Buy clothes that do double duty. Use sweatsuits in the winter and T-shirts in the summer.

Plastic baby carriers
Yes, we know they’re a standard – but your baby will outgrow a plastic baby carrier after the very first months. Besides, the very best way of getting to know your baby and bonding with her is to snuggle her up close in your arms or a soft carrier.

Play yards
These space-hogs limit your baby’s ability to perform his primary task as an infant: explore and learn about his world. Babyproof rigorously and let your baby go. Buy a clear shower curtain, pull out a special basket of toys and lock baby inside the bathroom with you when you need to shower. Give you baby a special cabinet of things to play with in the kitchen, and carry him from room to room as you do things around the house. It’s time tested by generations of parents, and it works!

Strollers
Consider how much easier it would be to slip between clothing racks at the mall with your baby in a front carrier or how much happier he would be nestled next to you in a sling, leaving you two hands free to deal with packages at the post office. A pull-along wagon fits the bill for special outings and does double duty for play.

Swings, bouncers, etc.
When your baby needs comfort and movement, do things the easy way: pick her up! Save money and space and give your baby the physical and emotional closeness she craves with a carrier or sling that keeps her close to you.

Most of these space- and money-saving strategies offer an additional benefit: parent-child bonding. Steering clear of ”babysitting” gadgets and gear helps not only simplifies your household but also puts you and your baby in a position to build even stronger connections – simply wonderful, indeed!

It’s amazing what we thought we needed for baby number one and what we knew we wouoldn’t need for baby number three!

During pregnancy it’s better to spend more money on comfort items for the house and your growing body. Like a better office chair, a new bed with comfortable headboard for those late night feeding sessions, luxurious sheets, a new lap blanket, a big, comfy chair for the living room, or a new (bigger) dining room table.

I dunno…

First, that crib my parents bought us proved to be a wonderful place to store all those piles of stuffed animals we got, and the baby never cared for, as well as a great place to throw laundry and other things when unexpected visitors rang the bell. Of course, it was rather difficult to explain to some why there was so much “fluffy bedding” in the crib — don’t you know it can suffocate the baby? (DUUHHHHH!!!)

That bathtub made the PERFECT pond for the goldfish we won at SeaWorld… well until the blue heron visited… but then we adopted these turtles…

When my kid was 3, he found the bottles in the back of the cabinet and filled them with soymilk and passed them out to all his friends. They paraded down the sidewalk with them in their mouths to the shock and horror of my neighbors who already knew we were the weirdest parents they had ever heard of.

Those red footy pajamas did make the greatest Christmas Photo for our cards, had we ever gotten them out. Other than that, he wouldn’t wear anythign that kept him from playing with his bellybutton.

The playyard given us was a gate thing that could be opened and placed into any shape. Cover it with blankets and it served many an hour as a secret playhouse, and later served well keeping the visiting rabbits away from our cabbage plants.

And in all honesty, with the baby on my back, where else was I going to put all our jackets, my trans-free snacks, my bottle (of green decaf tea with agave nectar that I can’t live without) and purchases (can you say birthday invites every other week?) I still use the stroller to bring heavy packages to the post office, even though it’s a little warped because my kid always wanted to push me around in it (you know the sales people at Nordstroms can be so stuck-up sometimes).

So, I dunno. I rather have to disagree, but thanks anyway.

I hear you, Linda!

So tell me … Do you actually fit into that stroller?

4 Joy says:

Thanks a lot Lisa for making me know that even in your country you know the importance of spending wisely. Thanks for the great advice.

5 Erin says:

This is ridiculous, a crib is a must-have, I wouldn’t DARE put my baby in the same bed as me, and forget about putting him/her on the floor! Are you out of your mind?! By the time they start crawling, they could be all over the place and choking on something on the floor before you even wake up! And a stroller is definitely a must-have, I refuse to carry around a 20 pound tot all day at the mall, even with a baby carrier, you’ll put your back out like that. As for swings, bouncers, playyards, things like that, it’s every mother’s right to want to entertain her kids while getting some much deserved rest either taking a quick shower (with a kid in a safe play yard or in an exersaucer) or to take a minute to watch the news. We’re not superhuman. I understand about diaper pails, but the changing table is kinda pushing it, I will not get down on the floor everyday to change my baby, I don’t know what’s on the floor, even though I vacuum, I work in a lab and it’s inevitable that I will bring home some “lab” on my shoes everyday. A changing table acts as a good solid surface (if you buy a good one) to change a kid on, and I’d rather have my kid poo or pee or puke on the changing table and not my chairs and bed and especially not the floor.
This is the dumbest article I have EVER read.

6 Erin says:

First, though I am not a mother, I was a career babysitter/nanny. The only thing I found useful was a small stroller because I was young and did not have the months of preparation being pregnant and then carrying around a new baby, my muscles were not ready for a toddler’s weight.

Erin,
I am concerned about your response. There are a lot of “I”s in your post. In the end it is not about you, but what is best for you child. Perhaps you should reconsider some things and do them for your babe.
I have also worked in health care for many years now, since switching from child care. I understand your fear of bringing home germs. Why not try to take off your lab shoes and pants before stepping inside the door? Or have a mat or rug that you can wash and undress once inside the door. Then fold up the rug and place it in a container that your child cannot open. Your baby is going to need to crawl around. The floor is not something you can make a developing child avoid.
