Recommendations

What are your must have items during pregnancy?

I'm a first timer so I don't really know things I should get and should not bother getting. Anyone want to help me out a little and tell me some of your favorites and what to steer clear of?! Smile

I haven't bought ANYTHING yet. Has anyone else not bought a thing?

I've bought a few little things but really not much yet, I want to know the sex first since almost everything you can get in a sex specific color. However, my MIL is buying the crib for us and she's taking me crib shopping this Wednesday! So excited! 

As far as Recommendations, I'm also a first time mommy so no suggestions from me :)

Do you mean pregnancy items for you?

I really like Mama Mio tummy rub and lucky legs

Body pillow or pregnancy pillow

Wide shoes (not everyone will need this but my feet swelled a lot my last few weeks)

Dye and perfume free detergent to wash everything (including your clothes and sheets)

Comfortable maternity clothes

Birth plan (at least an idea of what you want)

Pedi (interview and select before the baby is born)

ETA: and if you plan to BF, I suggest taking a class and having a LC ready to go if you need it.

Now that I re-read her post, I totally think that's what she meant and feel like a idiot for giving her a different answer, lmao. I thought she was asking for the baby.
