what we bought new, used, or skipped for the registry

no sponsors, no baby influencer stuff. just what survived the first few months and what wasted a gift card

Graco SnugRide 35 infant car seat

buy new. always. car seats are the one thing here you never buy secondhand, cracks don't show and neither does a recall history. ~$180

Newton Baby crib mattress

UPPAbaby Vista stroller

got ours used off a mom facebook group for $350, saved literally half. check the wheels before you buy

Ergobaby Omni 360 carrier

HALO BassiNest bassinet

used is fine here, just replace the sheet. we used this daily for the first 4 months, definitly worth it used

4moms mamaRoo bouncer

Owlet Smart Sock baby monitor

skip. the FDA flagged it in 2021 for not being a cleared medical device, a $40 video monitor tells you almost as much. ask your pediatrician

Boppy nursing pillow

Spectra S1 breast pump

most insurance covers one breast pump a year anyway, so there's no reason to buy this used
