Unrelated to the fuckery of this, the only advice I give to expecting parents is, "don't spend a lot of money solving problems you don't know you'll have." Everyone wants to tell you about some product that was super important to their infant, but babies are all different, and your kid might not need what they used. We nearly spent $300 on a fancy bottle warmer, and it turned out our baby liked cold milk. You don't want to spend $1,7000 on a bassinet only to find out your kid is an easy sleeper.
