When you have your first baby, there is a wealth of advice thrown your way. People telling you that the must have item is anything from muslin cloths to a nappy bin.
I know when I had my first, which I have to confess is over 18 years ago now, the one thing that was a life saver for me was my Mountain Buggy. This isn’t a plug for Mountain Buggy more just a note, that for me, whether city or the park, I could just get out of the house. My baby was sick on it, I frequently forgot the muslin cloths and never owned a nappy bin. I couldn’t see why I needed that when my regular bin also took nappies. Regardless, some people loved them! I ventured into cloth nappies anyway, but that a whole other story. The other two must haves were a baby bounce chair to put the baby down and free my hands at home and a baby monitor. I am not recommending that one specifically, but choose one that gives you all the features you feel you need.
