We're getting a sling and a carrier for this one, we never got one with my first but I have a feeling with a toddler I'll need to keep my hands free😂

Im gonna get a new sling thats quicker to use, ive got a wrap around one but sometimes it takes too long to put it on, i might try getting one of those infinity scarf looking ones

A rockit. I found with my first I never even thought about it, but with my second I found times for example at the park, you needed the buggy rocked, but my eldest (15months at the time) needed help on everything in the park, so the rockit helped so much to soothe my youngest at times where I had to spilt into two

Definitely a good carrier, I really appreciate having my hands free when I take my toddler to the park. Also a sleepyhead (got one off of Vinted), she sleeps in that really well which is a lifeline so I can play on the floor with my boy ☺️

A bath seat! I’ve always held my son in not doing it a second time 🤣..

@Cat second this, the rockit has been great for us for the same reasons x

Definitely a sling if you don't have one already, I don't know how I'd do anything without it! 😅 Also we found a couple of cheap bouncy chairs were really useful to have around the house so you have somewhere safe to put baby where they're out of toddler's way. With my first I used to just put him on the floor on a playmat but you can't really do that when you've got an older child running around as well.
