What baby items did you get and almost never use?
I bought peepee teepees and used one once. Receiving blankets. Used maybe once or twice. Baby nail file! As much as I have to admit it...just get clippers and suck up the fear of cutting their nails. The files don’t work very well.
Blankets, quilts. Used swaddling blankets only.
Pee guards. I didn’t use these with my first boy but decided to give them a try with my second. Only used it the one time!! It totally got in the way when trying to change him and I needed to take it off to wipe him anyway. Better to just move as quickly as possible, and use the diaper itself as a guard if necessary, to avoid the pee in the face!
Receiving blankets. I had about a million of these, and only ever used a handful of my favorite muslin swaddle blankets over and over again.
Favorite baby teething remedies?
Teething biscuits (watch closely to make sure baby can't ingest any small pieces that may break off)
My kids got relief from chewing on a wet washcloth we had kept in the freezer.
Frozen foods in a mesh or silicone feeder.
