Second Baby Stuff

I am basically prepared ("stuff"-wise!) for the arrival of Baby #2 but there are a few things I would love to add to my collection before he or she comes along. Some are things that you just need with two kiddos others are just essentials that weren't as popular when Claire was born. Any other suggestions?

Muslin Swaddling Blankets- great for swaddling, keeping baby cool, and easy to stuff in a diaper bag! These are by Aden and Anais



ERGO Carrier- I loved my over-the-shoulder sling for Claire, but I'd like one that SJ can use, be a little easier on my back, and be usable into the toddler stage since I'll be chasing two around before I know it. Love the new Petunia Pickle Bottom prints, but would probably go with a neutral black or grey so the hubs would actually wear it in public!



Double Stroller-  I'm still up in the air about this one. Some people love their side-by-sides, some love their sit-and-stands, others are all about the jogging-style strollers that tend to be quite a bit larger and more expensive. I've talked to some moms who skipped the double stroller all-together. Hoping maybe I can find one in good used condition to save a few hundred bucks! Here are a few I'm considering...suggestions welcome!

Chicco Cortina ($250-300)



Britax B-Ready Inline ($450-500)


Phil and Ted's Inline Jogger ($400-500)



Baby Jogger City Mini Double ($349)



Pumping Bra-  I've heard great things about these bras, and although they look absolutely ridiculous, I actually think I'd use it a lot while juggling the needs of a a toddler and a newborn.

Marc Jacobs Nylon Bag- Most definitely not a "need," but wouldn't mind having one of these comfy, over-the-shoulder style bags by Marc Jacobs. The price is a little extreme for a "baby" bag, but a girl can wish, right?!

 

Fossil's version is actually a little bit bigger and would probably do the trick, especially for about half the price. It comes in great bold colors, too!

 
Have other suggestions for second-baby must-haves?! Please share!
