Thinking about baby shopping today..

What should I buy?
I still have a ton to get. Right now all I have is clothes newborn-12 months, a few blankets, and the nose suction thing(I forget the name).
I have a little over $200 that I'm thinking needs to go to the baby.

Grooming kit, first aid kit, a lot of those thinner receiving blankets that come in a pack. They are better than burp cloths for catching spit up. Um, what else. Are you having a baby shower?

Lol I haven't started shopping yet.. With the exception of a new mattress because my son was using it for a week.
I'd start with using a 20% off coupon from BRU and buying something big, like bassinet/pack n play/swing

I didnt start shopping until I was about 33-35 week so you have some time ahead of you but maybe have a look at car seats, pram if you want one and and buy things for the bath

Nope. What's in a grooming kit?

Carseat!!! Whatever you plan to have baby sleep in for the first few months. Wrap or carrier is much cheaper than a stroller and that's honestly better to use the first few months IMO aaaand a bathtub, although you can bathe a newborn in the sink so that could also wait til baby's here. For a newborn I think all you really NEED is clothes/blankets, boobs, somewhere to sleep and a way to carry them out in public.
I got so much stuff at my baby shower that was nice to have, but I didn't use much. And some I never used at all.
Oh, and the nasal sucker thing is a must have. I got one at the hospital when DS was born and its awesome.

Lol, I know.
I already know what car seat I am getting and I think it'll be more down the line. I'm thinking smaller things for now.

I'm just a little impatient. Where do you get those? Online? Or do they just have coupons there?

A Boppy pillow, but go to Marshalls or TJ Maxx, they have the same as BRU, but cheaper.

I've never used coupons  

maybe a couple times at a grocery store so I don't think to look for them for baby items so thanks!

You're welcome! That's what we're doing this time since we only have a handful of items to this time, but all being bigger purchases. I'm going to get one thing a week with the 20% off .. It adds up!
