5 "Must-have" Baby Products You Don't Really Need

When I was pregnant I would study baby essential lists like I was preparing for a college final. I wanted to strike that balance of owning the essentials without overbuying and have several things go to waste. I'd often find myself in the store debating whether I should add an item to the cart and asking myself, "How much would we use this? Can we make do without?" I'm sure many of you are in the same boat so I've made a list of five items we haven't ended up using much. Maybe looking through this can save you a purchase or two. - By Melanie Blodgett

Baby Monitor
One thing I learned very quickly is that Beck doesn't cry often but when he does, it is loud. So loud, that I can hear it from any room of the house. Add that with mom ears and you don't need a monitor. Of course if your house is sprawling and your baby has a soft cry, you will need one. Your call.
