Went baby shopping with my mom the other day. We printed out their registry and picked the cheaper things to buy. Yes, i'm cheap. but i'm also making minus $25,000/year and i'm not close with the mommy therefore i won't be seeing much of her nor her baby, therefore she's not really a baby i care all that much about.
Here's what i bought:
1) 6-Piece Oral Care Set
2) Bath Pal Thermometer - Duck
3) Clear Tip Nasal Aspirator
4) Fold-Up Nail Clipper
5) Easy Fill Medicine Syringe
6) Outlet Plugs - 12 pack
and here's why I think it's a complete waste of money and why people who actually use these gadgets thinking they're awesome are gonna have extremely asthmatic babies who are allergic to absolutely everything:
1) (oral care set; see above for #s) The stupid baby won't have teeth for 6mths, and those teeth are gonna fall out anyway, so why clean them? and a tongue cleaner?! honestly, must the baby have perfect breath?!?!?
2) "God" invented the FINGER. stick your damn finger into the bathwater to see if it's the right temperature!
3) ... one day, ur baby will have to learn, on its own, how to breathe through its mouth when its nose is blocked. if it's not smart enough to figure that out, then maybe it's for the best....
4) this nail clipper looks exactly the same as any other nail clipper, but it's attached to a giant piece of plastic at the end where the parent holds it. .... also, on the back, it says "sterilize with rubbing alcohol" .... WHAT. THE. HELL. overboard much? you know, a little bit of germs is NORMAL. it's not like we live in an area with a high risk of bubonic plague, or even HepA!!!!!
5) medicine syringe - why not just use a dropper? 10cents or $3??
6) THE ONLY THING THAT IS USEFUL IN THIS LIST!
Note:
"baby shopping"
≠ shopping for babies
= shopping for stuff for babies, uhduh.
