Bouncy chair and pnp. Glad both were hand-me-downs!
-
Bouncy Chair. She used it maybe twice. It was just too boring for her!
-
The swing. I was so glad I bought one used and it only cost me $40. DS hated it!!
-
Bumbo and Boppy. Pillows were easier for me than the boppy pillow and she would arch her back and almost tip backwards in the bumbo.
-
We're only seven weeks in, but so far I can't think of anything we have that hasn't gotten good use. Except for maybe the ring sling, since he prefers the Boba wrap. I'm hoping the ring sling will get used more as he gets older.
-
Moby - it's still in the box.
-
I gave our Boppy away; I maybe used it once. We also used the swing only a handful of times. Neither kid liked it.
-
The sling - we tried it once and didn't even have her halfway in before she was screaming her head off. Also, the jumperoo - it's so big and so expensive (nearly $200 here) and she used it maybe 10 times max. Maybe if we hadn't been overseas from 5.5 months to 7 months old, she may have gotten more use out of it, but as it stands now, it was a huge waste of money and space.
Also could have lived without the bumbo and our inflatable bathtub as we just used a bath sling/terry cloth covered frame (a $7 purchase that was worth its weight in gold!) until she could sit up on her own. I liked the boppy and used it a lot, but a standard pillow worked just as well and if it hadn't been a gift, I would never have bought it.
Oh our biggest waste was bottles - LO has never really taken a bottle so we have loads of bottles and hundreds of the drop in liners that are just not ever going to be used with is LO. I always meant to get her to take a bottle of pumped milk regularly but just never got around to it.
-
Never got the hang of the moby. We ended up with a beco gemini. .
-
The pack and play, bumbo, & k'tan. (Altho I got the Boba since the K'tan hurt my back and use it ALL the time.)
-
LO is 5 months and I have yet to use the Ergo. I really want to use it but every time I try it out around the house she didnt look too comfortable so I would take it off after five minutes. I hope she will eventually like it because its so cute when I see other mommas and papas wear their babies!
-
@mrs. chen: There's still hope for your Ergo! My daughter didn't fit in it for almost six months (she was too little without the insert, which we didn't have bc it's so hot and humid here). She LOVES it now though.
We got very little use out of the bumbo, sleep sheep, and our baby bath. The swing and jumperoo were well loved, but short lived.
-
Moby - ugh, what a waste of money
-
The baby bath chair- we used it for the first 8ish weeks until we got comfortable handling him. We never used a baby tub, just the big tub. Next time I would probably get one of those bath aprons or just lay the baby down in the tub with a towel to cushion.
Also the Infantino/Bjorn style carrier, we only used it for the first month before it started hurting our backs. So glad I bought it used for $10.
We actually still use the swing, it was one of our best purchases! Each baby is different
-
Moby - have never used it since the K'tan is so easy!
Bottles - sure we need a few, but I prefer the TT ones I bought. We have all the Medela ones and a DOZEN glass bottles my aunt gave us still in the gift basket. Just don't need so many with BFing!
Love my Boppy! I even got a travel one because I couldn't stand nighttime feedings without!@LuLu Mom: our LO doesn't care for the gliding chair either. But we still use it when she wants to be held asleep. I love it though so it's worth it to me.
-
the tub. granted I think it was only $5, but it still takes up space because I don't know what to do with it now.
-
Bouncy chair, Boppy, Bumbo, & Bathtub - apparently gear beginning with "B". Luckily most of these thing were borrowed. We do use them all but could have lived without them.
-
We use it all, but the least used would probably be the bouncy chair. It just never occurs to me to use it.
