Have you ever sat down to create a list of all the "gear" you "need" for baby's arrival? Wish it was all listed in one place instead of scattered across the internet? Wish people were honest about what they really needed vs. what they were led to believe they needed by big box stores, registry sales people and websites, (and, dare we say it, even friends and family)? Trying to stick to a budget for baby's arrival? You can be led to spend a fortune without even trying.

In this first official episode of our podcast, we review all the gear we've looked at, reviewed, compared, considered, and carefully evaluated - and then what we eventually bought in order to prepare for the arrival of our first baby. We divided the 'stuff' into categories, which you can find listed below. And it's not as much as we thought! (We'll be back to update the list once baby arrives and we can really put our money where our mouth is in terms of what should have made the list and what didn't need to be included).
