Does anyone actually have this stuff?!?

[Deleted]

I have several of these. Should I hang my head in shame as a baby gadget buyer?

#4 is a must have for travelers
#7 is great but has had mold issues.  I got rid of it and got a blend tech
#9 never used it but seen it in the store and I just think it's a waste of $$ potential mold issues etc
#11 we used it until DS was almost 1 yr old
#14 does not work anything like the TV ads.  Waste!
#21 is great
#23 we own but wont use until baby #2 gets here
#26 came with our house - fantastic!
#27 we love them but pricey!

OMG the HTML for babies. DH will poo his pants.

Yeah, the bean bag is probably not very safe (SIDS risk). The folding crib I can't really tell -- I've seen things like that before that are just fine because they're firm enough. All of the other ones I've seen before, some people say they are useful and some look like a waste of money (the dancing shoes?!?!)

We have (or is being shipped to us right now) the Mamaroo, #11 and also have a wubbanub, #27. Most of that stuff looks really gimmicky and unnecessary, which I'm sure people will say to the two things I have off the list too!

We have the blooming bath and the wubbanub pacifiers. Very cute items, we'll see how useful they actually are!

we have a Mamaroo this time

I will say, if the nail buffer works, we should all get one - DH cut DS1's nails as an infant and clipped his finger and man it bled forever. DH was traumatized and wouldn't cut DS' nails for like a year

Yes, we registered for those two as well.

Our friends swear by the Mamaroo (#11).

I have the mamaroo and a couple wubbanubbs. I am intrigued by the nail filer thing. I'm scared of the idea of cutting the baby's fingernails.

DD loved #13. It was really good when she was teething. I don't have #15, but I did have a diaper bag that attached to the stroller handles. I used that feature a lot.

How is this thing not a suffocation death trap?

I won't go into details but quite a few of those things look like they could potentially encourage irresponsible behavior on the behalf of the caregiver.
