I would LOVE to have received the convertible car seat of my choice. It would have been around half the budget you’re looking at, so adding a crib to it would also take some stress off my plate as well because most cribs I was looking at were under $400. That’s 2 big items off the list. The convertible seat is often more expensive than the infant seat and offers longevity but also offering to buy one of the items and then presenting with the balance in cash would also offer a ton of flexibility in what she’s wanting.
Personally, I love my Evenflo 360 seat, my bougie Cybex stroller, my bougie wonderfold wagon, and my convertible crib. I’m on my 4th kid and the crib has never been converted past a toddler bed but it’s been used over and over and over again. It’s getting ready to welcome its 4th occupant and didn’t have the chance to be used as a toddler bed this go around. I also love my pack and play (I got the mini one that converts from bassinet to toddler bed with the zipper entrance this time), baby carrier, and bouncer. You might just check out her registry if she’s got one and snag several of the larger items and have them sent to her house.
aw, also due in july! but thankfully just a singleton this time 🤣
we already had an older toddler so we opted for a wonderfold wagon. love it & still use it all the time. zero regrets & comparable to what some strollers cost imo.
for bassinet we got the halo twin. I loved that it swiveled. BUT. as soon as baby’s show signs of rolling you’re supposed to discontinue use so it’s literally good for like 12w. then we switched to double pack n play. the girls used that till 7m/6m adjusted, which is when they started bothering each other sleeping in the same space.
I got my baby carrier from marketplace. I got the minimonkey. loved it. my girls were on the smaller side so we used it till they were one pretty much. I didn’t want to spend money on a weego AND twingo. minimonkey you can use from itty bitty babes to 20lb babes.
if you breastfeed I loved the twin Z pillow. honestly even if you formula feed still get it. it’s amazing for them to lounge in too. we still use ours downstairs for relaxing at 20m lol

Travel-friendly, city-nimble, but tiny storage and struggles off-pavement.
