What I'm Buying for my Third Baby

Now that I have two children, a boy and a girl you would think I do not need much for any additional babies. This is mostly true, although I did sell off a few of my big baby gear items because I thought I was done. As in, done having babies!

So, I don't need much but I do need a few things. I finally decided it was time to start preparing for my third baby. I am almost 33 weeks pregnant so after a stress free pregnancy where I have done nothing to prepare, I bought the items I have had on my wish list for awhile.

I figure after two kids I mostly know what is a must have, what I need, and what I don't need and this is my small purchase of supplies.

Every item I have bought is something I have used and LOVED already and needed to replace or something new I have been dying to try.

What I'm Buying for my Third Baby

Halo Sleepsack Swaddle

what to buy for third  baby

I have used almost every kind of swaddler on the market. I like the Swaddle Me and the Miracle Blanket. The miracle blanket was a huge hit with my daughter but my son never took to it.

I have also used aden + anais sleep sack type swaddle but could never get it tight enough (despite loving all of their other products - see below).

The one swaddle that has consistently worked for me through two children is the Halo Sleepsack Swaddle. I have a couple of hand me down Halos for this baby but I wanted to get her one of her own.

Wash cloths

Pretty self explanatory. It makes bathing a newborn easier when there is something to use and we don't have to submerge her in water.

Lansinoh TheraPearl 3-in-1 Breast Therapy, 2 Count

This is something I have not used before. I have always used warm compresses on my engorged breasts but I decided to treat myself this time. Third baby and all.. so I am not sure how great this product may be but I will report back after using. 

Diaper Organizer

Third baby must haves

Another item that is self explanatory. I like to be able to move diapers around the house where needed.

I created a rolling diaper caddy for my bedroom but plan to use this one downstairs.

Ergobaby nursing pillow

Third baby essentials

Another item that is somewhat new for me. While I love and have used other brand nursing pillows, in this case I wanted to try something new.

I still have a Boppy - my old stand by, but
