I WAS going to buy a napper wrapper. We never got around to it.
I said to DH recently, thank goodness we never bought one of those. It would have been a huge waste of money. We've used sposies all the way through.

LOVE my Angel Car monitor, Sound and movement one, we used it in the basinett of her pram and now in the cot.
Got the Nappy Wrapper, I have been only getting the cartidges when TRU has them on sale, when they do a really good special. But we use a mixture of cloth and dippy's so don't need to change it as often ;)
We are trying to find a second hand Bumbo as DD loves to sit up but she is no where near supporting herself yet and pillows aren't helping, but hopefully soon I will have one!!
We used a lot of wraps in the early days, but now I have a drawer full of them and not sure what to do with them all, and we had a couple that we used all the time as they locked her in nice a tight as she was a bit older. I use the flannel ones foled on her change mat to make it nice and soft and comfy :)
Suits that do up at the back - 00000-0000 (she was in them for 4 - 5 months), this was a nightmare, we used them maybe once of twice, don't bother getting tiny things that do up at the back, just a total Pain in the bum!! Fine when they are a bit older/bigger.
The Real Nappy System, we bought a started kit and they were too big for a long time, then when they did fit the leaked all the time, her legs just weren't fat enough so no chub to help them fit better so I need to sell them on EBAY!!
That is about it ;)
Same here, waste of money even though it was a gift as that money could have been spent on something better or in the girls bank account.:
Hmm our JJ goes on the door frame ;), soo much easier, no frame to worry about, I agree that would be a real pain in the bum!!:
the pram! we sling it pretty much all the way.............. should have just kept dd1's stroller and forgotten about a pram style for the baby, waste!!
oh - and all the 0000/000 sized clothes given as gifts, even when people were asked to buy size 0 or bigger, such a waste
little laaa has been given 2 Polo Ralph Lauren outfits... cute but just not practicle, i doubt she will ever wear them
I had to have that fisher price jungle babygym thing?
ds never warmed to it at all (I thought he'd love the lights and sounds)
Used it maybe a couple of times and then passed it on, cost me an absolute fortune!
Old house had no usable door frame and this house has only good one (level changes happen between most rooms). Even with an accesible door frame it is stil a complete PITA to set up just for a short amount of time.:
Clothes.. and toys.... simply far far farrrrr too many.
Being in Queensland - my kids usually run around (well DS anyway, she can't even sit up yet) in just singlets during the day - and night. The only time they get dressed is when we are going out - which isn't THAT often... LOL So I have all these clothes.. just sitting there.
Nothing better than looking at your bub in just a singlet and a cloth nappy ;)
For me, its been jars of baby food that DS takes one spoonful from and then spits out and won't eat anymore (even the yummy custard ones!!).
BLS is the way to go for us!
BTW, we leave our JJ set clamp thingy up over the doorframe, just pushed to the edge when not in use. Still a bit of a PITA when you have to stretch up on tippy-toes to move it (grrr, shortness), but generally fairly handy.
JJ was no good for us either, DS didn't like it too much.
The walker that we bought lasted about 2 weeks before DS started crawling and preferred to do that!
A baby swing given as a gift never got used either!
Oh and the baby bath and bath seat, DS hated them too and preferred to be in the bath with me!
clothes, clothes, more clothes! i couldnt help myself throughout pregnancy... she's worn pretty much just a nappy for the last week...
got a sling off ebay,is too big and bulky (nojo sling) so havnt used that...
nanna gave us dummies and a whole bunch of soaps and powders that are collecting dust,
so much stuff! but as a first timer i cant help myself in shops like big w,i just go strait to the baby section even though i know i dont need any of it!;)
primma pappa high chair to big and bulky, should have just bought bumboo seat with table
we saved money on buying a pram that layed flat and used that as the bassinet as it was removable form the base of pram.:)
FisherPrice Sea creatures bath. DS HATED!!!!! it set him to fits of SCREAMING. It has a sling for new borns, and a suport built in to the bottom of it.
I ended up puting him in the big bath with me. Loves baths now.
But we do use the toys still....bloody expencive toys!
