What to put together before baby comes home?
I have all this stuff and am not even sure what I can use right away...
Pack and Play
Swing
Bouncy seat
obviously I need the car seat and stroller, but what about the rest?

Re: What to put together before baby comes home?

Definately Pack-n-play - we used it for naps, changing, etc. from the first day.
We used th bouncy seat and swing pretty soon after that.

Re: What to put together before baby comes home?
I think you have the list -
Bassinet
Pack n Play
Baouncer
Swing
Car seat Installed
Stroller
Would all be most helpful. My baby came too early and I had none done so don't worry if you don't - it does all get done.

Re: What to put together before baby comes home?
I have the car seat installed in the car, the pack and play set up, the bouncy seat, the stroller and the bassinet. I have yet to put the swing together...I'll probably do that today.

I would add crib to the list - you have about 3 months to get it together

I was in the same boat - Joseph's first changing table was a storage box. I had no furniture yet so I used the storage space at the bottom of a borrowed bassinet. In the end I realize the things you really need are a place to sleep, diapers and a car seat.
If you're really planning, you can make some dinners to freeze for the first few weeks.

Re: What to put together before baby comes home?
our bassinet is done and we just did the stroller tonight so the dogs can get used to it.
We might wait a bit for the pack n play---not sure where to put it yet

Re: What to put together before baby comes home?
We put everything but the high chair together and used it all but the swing. We tested it out but she's still not a fan.
