Car Stuff
We are going with the Mint Latch car seat because I like that it doesn't need a base. It will make things easier for swapping cars, which we do a lot of, and for travel and getting baby in an uber or whatever. We went with the Ginger stroller because I like that it has the option of a bassinet without having to detach a bunch of stuff. Also looks like it has good storage space. Will update once baby is actually here!
Joie Ginger and Mint Latch Travel System
One of the car mirrors we got. Will update if baby likes it!
Baby Car Mirror with Light, Remote, 360° Rot
Feeding
I am planning to try to Eufy S1 wearable pump. I like that it has the warming feature, that was a huge selling point for me.
eufy Wearable Breast Pump S1 - Hands-Free & Heated Comfort
We are trying to stick to glass bottles as much as possible and read great reviews on these ones. Will update once we know baby's preferences.
Philips Avent Glass Natural Response Baby Bottle
We were given a lot of the Dr Brown's Bottles from family who no longer needs them. I've heard they're great for colic but kind of a hassle to wash with all the parts. Will update once we try them out!
Dr. Brown's : Baby Bottles
This is the drying rack we went with for baby bottles. Hoping to also get a bottle washer, so may not use it a ton, but time will tell!

This is the chair we got for the nursery. It has massage, heat, swivels and reclines. So far I love it when I'm in there working on folding his clothes!
Manual Swivel Rocker Recliner Chair with Massage & Heat, Blue
This is what we got for his books. Will update more when it is all setup!
Got a couple of these and are working on getting them setup. Will post pics once we are all set. Currently using bottom for cloth diapers, 2nd from bottom for the cloth diaper inserts, and working on organization for the rest!
OneDream 5-Tier Nursery Organizer Grey
This is the bouncer we went with. We got it all setup (with help from our supervisor, our 3 year old husky/GSD mix), and it's so cute. Can't wait to try it!
Baby Delight Alpine Deluxe Portable Bouncer - Sage: Detachable Toy Bar, Reclining Seat, Machine Washable Seat Pad
This is the changing table we got. It was a bitch to put together and we had to go to hardware store a few times as some of the screws were stripped (probably my fault) and some were weird, but now that it's together we love it. It's very sturdy and ...
Delta Children Skylar 3-Drawer Dresser with Changing Top and Interlocking Drawers - Gray: Metal Wood MDF Frame, Traditional Decor Style
My bestie got me this bassinet on tiktok. Excited to give it a try! Seems very sturdy and has a storage option underneath. We won’t be able to take advantage of the storage if we put it next to the bed, not enough space, but if we go end of bed we wi...
This is the jogging stroller we went with. I got it all put together even though baby isn't supposed to go with for runs for the first 6 months, we will still use it for walking as well :-). Very excited as the tires are really nice and it should be a nice smooth ride. It also has LED lights on the tray! Only complaint is that it doesn't have a hand brake but I don't see that being an issue, we live in a dlat area.

Bath/Skincare
With the way our Spout is, we will have to take this off when we shower, but it's super easer to slide on and off.
