I actually liked the bath thermometer...but I'd get one that isn't digital. I can never tell if the water is too hot, I like my showers super hot, so it has saved us a couple of times.

I didn't use sleepsacks in size S, we were still swaddling at that point, when we transitioned out we went right to size M.

Get the snack bowls with covers, this way you can also toss them in a diaper bag!

I didn't see waterproof mattress pads...Carters makes great ones with an elastic all around.

Side note:I read that you're getting the IKEA Gulliver crib in another thread, the jersey sheets they sell in a 2 pack are awesome, get 2 packages!

I didn't use sleepsacks in S either. We're still using the Miracle Blanket/Woombie to swaddle, and she'll move straight into a size M sleepsack. Good call on getting 2 Miracle Blankets. They're my must-have baby item... you need 2 at minimum if you love it like we do.

I think one carseat base would be fine, and I would also add tylenol, saline, etc.

And this is totally a personal thing, but I prefer the bottle brush with the sponge at the end. I bought one like the one you registered for because it can go in the dishwasher, but it's kind of hard to get in the neck of some of our bottles.

You have a lot of awesome stuff on there!
I agree that the small sleep sacks don't get much use because babies are swaddled then.

Is the city select carseat adapter the same as the one for the mini?

As far as the rock'n play, where do you plan to have baby sleep at first? I love the rock'n play so I'd put one on there, but it's by no means an essential item.

As mrs bird said, the adapter for city mini is different than the one listed they do sell the one for city mini last I checked though!

Yay, these threads are great!! Can't wait to chime in and help new mommies once my LO has arrived and I have some advice to give

@ladyfingers: This weekend I thought of another registry thing. MUSIC!

We love that we got a baby lullaby CD plus some CD's for the car with kid music. It is really nice that when she is fussy we can turn on some of her music and she calms down. We turn her lullaby cd on each night (really I loaded it to an ipod in her room and keep the CD in my car).

Please do not buy the skip hop pronto changing station. I have that and have lots of issues with it and their customer service is TERRIBLE. The red wipes case leaks red color on to all your wipes. On their facebook page they claim it only a small batch were affected but after doing lots of research I realise a lot of people have this problem and they just dont care. they never even answer the phone. Try calling them now and see,

Also I have the green sprouts bibs and they are huge, as in the neck is for a much older baby,they are still huge on my 4.5 month old, I dont think they will fit her for another 3 or 4 months, so you may want to add some regular size bibs as well

I love the boogin head paci grips and the fisher price sleeper though!!

@ladyfingers: like these: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3368919

I think I'll use them on the changing pad or around the house for diaper changes. But you do have those boppy covers for the changing pad, so that could work too.

@ladyfingers: You will still want a few of those pads. We used to have the changing table foam thing, covered by the pad cover, then a flannel blanket and then one of those.

There is lots of pee and poo that goes places during diaper changes and its much easier to wash a small little square than the entire changing pad cover.

We have 2 kinds. One is a larger one that we use to lay her on and in her crib (about 18"x24") and then smaller ones for just under her bum during diaper changes (12"x12" or so).

@ladyfingers: Yea I guess the Boppy ones are the same just more expensive. The boppy ones are $12/3 versus the small square ones are like $6/3.
