Shopping for A New Baby

I find myself in the exciting position of being pregnant with my third child, prompting the start of my baby #3 shopping journey. Despite beginning later than usual, at 29 weeks along, the impending arrival of baby #3 in 11 weeks or sooner (if they have their way, that is) has spurred me into action. Thankfully, I saved the crib from my previous children, a decision that now feels like a stroke of genius considering the costliness of nursery essentials. Besides the crib, I am on the lookout for a changing station, bedside bassinet, swing/rocker, and a rocking chair. While the rocking chair falls under the category of a luxury rather than a necessity, its comforting presence during late-night feeds is a non-negotiable for me. In my thrifty approach, I will explore gently used baby stores to find these items, with Once Upon a Child being my top choice. This store offers a wide range of gently used baby essentials, from furniture to clothes, toys, and educational materials. I am eager to share the treasures I discover at my local Once Upon a Child, and I wholeheartedly recommend this store to fellow moms or moms-to-be. Happy shopping!
