Mom now seven-year-old son Lyubov Vysotskaya still remembers the very first expenses for a baby. Apparently, because of their meaninglessness.
No, I am not the daughter of a millionaire, and money does not fall on me from the sky, Love told the project Wday.ru. But, apparently, at that moment my brain went on maternity leave. When he returned, he ordered most of the purchases to hide and never show anyone. And part of the gifts of friends and relatives - there too.
Baby Monitor
In the big house, where the baby sleeps on the third floor, while the rest of the family grandly dines on the first, she probably needs it. In a two-and even three-room apartment, especially if the house is prefab, you will hear the grunting of a baby without it.
Clothing on 50 − 56 centimeters
Provided that you have a healthy, full-term baby, a newborn will grow out of this size in the 1 − 2 month. The growth of my son at birth is 53 centimeters, per month - 58, in 2 months - 64. The sliders on 50 were initially small, and those on 56 served only a couple of weeks. Bought was clearly more than useful.
Caps in large quantities
What I have not bought: thin and dense, and for a street under a hat, and for a house ... As a result, they used only one thing - they put it on for 20 − 30 minutes after a bath. If vilify a little longer, then the bottom of the head appeared potnya. Modern pediatrics has long been opposed to overheating the baby - if you wrap the baby, it will catch a cold even from a light draft. And if the house is not cold, then a hat in the room does not need a crumbs. Exception if it has a cold.
Large pack of diapers 0 − 1
For two reasons. The first - see item about clothes. From the smallest size crumbs grow very quickly. You may not have time to use a pack. The second reason: not all diapers like your baby's ass. Therefore, do not immediately buy large packs, start with the smallest, in order to understand whether they are suitable at all.

Button and Tie Things
Beautiful, but very uncomfortable. Extremely uncomfortable. While on this worm you fasten a rope or fasten a button, seven pots will do. Lightning is also not the best option, at least on wearable things. They are tough, and they are easy to pinch something. Buttons - our option!
Infant shoes
Looks great in photos. In life, from shoes for a person who is not even able to get up on all fours, benefit is zero. For walks in the stroller, too, are useless: in the summer, it is enough to have sliders with closed legs or socks, and in winter a warm envelope.
Маргацовка
At that moment, she just disappeared from all pharmacies. Grandmother extracted a vial with a small amount of powder from her bins. Used it exactly once - added to the tub. Then a pediatrician came, turned her finger to his temple. And the more we did not bathe our son in this pink solution.
Diaper with Velcro
On the tight swaddling insisted again grandmother. The child did not actively like it, he managed to get out of any fetters. Gave a diaper with Velcro. To be honest, it turned out to be even more inconvenient. Anyway, my grandmother left - they stopped swaddling. The diaper lay in the closet. No, I lie, it came in handy as a threat: when the child has grown up and already quite consciously a shkodil, she got out and promised to swaddle her “like a little”.
Oil of one very popular company.
Bought under the impression of advertising. Children's skin reacted with a rash. Almost a full bottle was in the bathroom until the expiration date was over - nobody wanted to take it from us (they say, almost everyone was allergic to this oil). Therefore, it is advised to collect probes from different manufacturers: it is necessary to try in order to understand which means your child will use.
Teether
She bought five, even with a cooling effect. The child is not a fool, his fists, the side of the crib and rattles seemed tastier. In the end, agreed to nibble one, and the easiest. The rest were lying idle. By the way, if you hope with the help of a teether to wean the child to drag everything in your mouth, forget it. Children learn the world exactly to the taste, so he will try everything he can reach: from toys to cats.
Soviet style oilcloth
No comments. Where was my brain when I bought them? Why he didn’t remind me about disposable diapers? Yeah, a pregnant woman is a dangerous woman.

Bath Thermometer
First, they lie. Secondly, are you so principled water temperature with an accuracy of tenth degree? What about your elbow? I did the bath "on sensations." Dad used the thermometer for the first week, and then also got used to it without him. But the one in the form of a duck, did not throw out, the child played with him in the bath.
Protective helmet for the head
Have you ever seen him? No, not cycling. This is such a shockproof cap, which is worn on the child when he learns to walk. The head in it starts to sweat in minutes after 20. Well, then, how are you going to develop a child, for example, caution and a sense of danger, if he crashes into a corner and does not feel the consequences?
Musical mobile
Am I the only one that he infuriated to gnashing of teeth? This repetitive melody on high notes. Three times you run - and even run out of the room. Has sustained three weeks. The baby did not even notice his absence.
Comb
Yeah, for an almost bald boy. I am a shopping genius! And even if it is the softest, for the first children's hair. NEED NOT! Although if you intend to comb the crusts from the infant head - then look for a special one for these purposes. But it is better to give the baby time and wait until the peeling passes by itself. Pass, do not hesitate.
