For First Time Parents out there

Recommended products to buy for first time parents (will continue to update):

Based on our own experience, below is a list of things I recommends first time parents to buy:

Stroller:

0-1 year old - 'Snap N Go' by Baby Trend. Graco has a very similar one too but we liked the Baby Trend one better because it has 2 cupholders and a middle section to put stuff in (such as baby wipes or little toys) on the handle. It is lightweight, and cheap (only about $50-$60 US). Basically it's a frame, and you snap the baby car seat on top of it. easy to maneuover, and there's no need to wake the baby up when you move him/her from car to stroller if he/she is sleeping.

Feeding:
