## Caption

Ok with the disclaimers this came out to more than 60 seconds but let’s  pretend it’s 60!! 

My point is, social media really encourages overconsumption when you’re expecting and preparing for a baby, and unfortunately, new parents are often taken advantage of. When I was doing my research, I saw all the things people claimed you “need.” Some of them I actually bought. Others, I used common sense to decide against, and I’m so glad I did😭.

So allow me to de-influence you. Here are some things you don’t need, pookie 🙊

Let me know if you want to see a part 2 or if you’d like to see the things that were actually worth it.

If you could advise a new parent, what are some things you would tell them not to buy?
