What did you buy new

[emsumm]

For your second or third baby?
Eh?

[emsumm]

Did anything new come out in the last 5 years that I need?
The auto rock n' play comes to mind :-)

[cville]

A rock and play. Because I didn't have one before.

Some clothes, because I had a girl first.

Pacifiers.

My husband got all new nipples for the bottles (lol).

[ProfessorArtNerd]

Keeping my eyes on this one. I know we will need car seats- lucys almost 7 so those will be expired by the time we need them.

[jlt19]

Just clothes b/c I had a boy the 2nd time. And some new sheets. But that doesn't stop me from using the old girly ones as well (he leaks a lot).

I think we're going to just barely squeeze by with this. ::crosses fingers:: 

[mrsbro]

Pacifiers, Bottle nipples, onesies, some more swaddlers (mostly because those were ruined by DS#1), and more hats and those little mittens because I lost them.

Oh it's ok, bc lucy already demanded a baby shower for me from my mom :/

[rosiebear]

My kid are 19 months apart, a boy and girl. Poor D wore her brother's hand me downs for years, but I did buy some girly stuff for her to wear, too. They were born in opposite seasons, too, so often the hand-me-down clothes that fit her were not suitable to the season.

We purchased a double stroller, we needed a new supply of teething toys when the time came (S was a big chewer, and pretty much destroyed all the teething stuff), we purchased a bed for S when D outgrew her co-sleeper and moved into the crib, we purchased a little support ring-type thing that helps them sit upright in the bath so that they could take baths together after D turned 6 months or so.

[adhdfashion]

Another crib and mattress. Double stroller. Lots of clothes. DD2 was born in Jan and DD1 in Aug. So a lot of the clothes weren't useable due to season.

[jinkies]

Clothes and crib sheets (bc my 2 kids are boy/girl)

I can't really think of anything else. I made sure most of the staples were gender-neutral the first time, and my oldest hated all play mats/ exersaucers/ bouncy chair/ pack and play, so all that stuff was only very very lightly used the first time around.

[cereal K]

New bedding for the crib. New decor for the room.

A k'tan, because I didn't baby wear before.

Clothes, because it was a boy.

More swaddle wraps and blankets because I would die without them.

We upgraded bottle drying racks. Tried some new pacifiers.

We were lucky that we could reuse most of our gear.

Oh - I did buy a new bouncer/swig combo because our bouncer shot craps sometime over the last four years and we got rid of our mega-swing.

[WOT?*]

Car seat. Because the first one was only sixteen months older and still needed hers.
Anything that went into the mouth (teethers, nipples) primarily because of use.
Stuffed animals and special blankets (so they'd have their own fuzzies and lovies.)

[cookies]

We bought a new bouncer seat thing because we borrowed one with #1.

Thinking about getting something to serve as a bassinet since we don't have a ton of room next to our bed for the pack n play we used last time. But I'll probably cheap out and squeeze it in there anyway.

Newborn insert for the Ergo carrier since I never got the hang of the Moby wrap and preferred the Ergo anyway.

Bottle parts

A new, warmer coming home outfit.

An extra Boppy cover.

Miracle blankets if I can't find the ones from last time. They have to be packed away. Have to!

Depending on the sex of the baby, we might need new clothes. We might need new clothes if it's another boy anyway since they'll be born in different seasons. I'll play that by ear though.

[cereal K]

Oh, and after much internal debate, I passed on the RNP. A friend let me borrow an additional PNP, which we set up in our room and put him in at night for the first 2-ish weeks. After that, he's been in his crib in his room. I'm kinda glad I skipped it because we just wouldn't have gotten the use out of it.

[candreco]

New carseat (DD's was too old), crib/bedding, clothes (boy the second time around), and I got an Ergo and a better sling this time around. Otherwise, I think that was about it for him.

[meij]

Quite a lot actually because I didn't have a lot of stuff with my first. She was an easy baby and DS was not. So I kept buying things hoping something would make him stop screaming lol. Also I had such a gap between kids stuff was better.

I had 4.5 years between kids
Bought new from store

Angelcare monitor (old one had stopped working)
Carseats (DD was still using hers)
Playmat (didn't have one with DD)
Knock off rock n play
stroller (I wanted one that could face parent)

Bought from consignment sale

Bouncer and jumperoo (didn't have with DD)
Swing (DD had one but we loaned it out and it broke)
Beco (had used one with DD but it was borrowed from a friend)
Reused from DD

Jogging stroller
crib and mattress
high chair
Changing table and pads
Boppy and covers
blankets, hooded towels
baby bathtub
Breast pump
sippy cups and bottles (new nipples)
arms reach cosleeper

[usuallylurking]

RNP - because we didn't have one with DS1 or DS2.
Bottle nipples for DS2, didn't have to replace for DS3 because he's never had a bottle.
A bigger/better/more functional diaper bag. After 2 kids I knew what I wanted and needed much more than when I just chose one while pregnant with DS1.
Socks. I still used some old ones (what I could find) but I've had to supplement socks for DS2 and DS3.
I bought A&A swaddle blankets for DS2 (and used them with DS3, too) because we didn't have any with DS1.

[granthamite]

Bottle parts
Pump parts
Pacifiers
Diaper pail
Some new clothes along the way because even though they're the same gender, DS2 was born in a different season and has been considerably smaller than DS1 was.
Baby book, obviously
Some friends got me the rock 'n play sleeper and man, I wish they'd had those when DS1 was born.

[granthamite]

Uhm, I have no idea why my post had a ton of space at the top. Sorry about that.

[ElizabethBennet]

We will have to get a new crib/mattress, clothes (maybe, they'll be different seasons), rock n play, stuff for baby wearing (I lent my moby wrap out and I don't think I'm getting it back), bottles, pacifiers, etc.

My parents are insisting on getting a new infant seat and since they're buying new a nice one in not gonna argue with them lol.

[gretchenindisguise]

A rock n play (love it)

A new car seat bc Ls was expired or expiring.

Some clothes.

Pacifiers.

Bottles - trying event drop in instead of dr Browns.

[dragonfly08]

We replaced the crib mattress and sheets, bottle nipples, and my mom got me a Baby Bjorn b/c I wanted a carrier (we didn't have one from #1 b/c I tried it with a borrowed one and she HATED being worn...but with two kids I needed my hands so #2 was going in there like it or not and fortunately she loved being in there).  And once she graduated from the infant carrier at 6 months old we got another car seat since #1 was still using hers.

[starlily]

Crib & dresser

Crib sheets

Infant carseat

Pacifiers

Bottles & nipples

Some clothes & toys

Audio monitor

[revolution]

clothes (I went from girl to boy, but most of DD's infant clothes were gender neutral so I reused some of those).

and bottles b/c DS refused DD's. I tried. HE HATED THEM. grrrr. so he got his own new ones.

I think that's it. We reused, crib, sheets, high chair, rocker, swing, exersaucer, pack-n-play, bibs, car seat etc.

Now when he outgrew the infant car seat, he had to get his own new one.

[eav2c]

Some new clothes
New pacifiers
New bottle nipples
A&A swaddles (I truly am clueless how we lived without these the first time)

[imhischeeseburger]

DD and DS are 5 years apart so I had to buy everything new. I got rid of all her baby stuff years ago because at the time we were one and done. The only thing I had saved was a baby food steamer/blender and her baby clothes because a friend wanted to use them as hand me downs. It was nice being able to buy all new stuff because a lot of cool baby gear has come out since I had my first.

[game blouses]

Crib, crib mattress, changing pad, and some more crib sheets. Not much else. He'll get a new convertible car seat soon, but for now he's still in the infant carrier.
