Hi Briley,

First and foremost, congratulations on your upcoming baby!

As a first-time mom of a two-month-old, it has been a challenge to
find the right things for my baby. For instance, many stroller
companies no longer offer or carry strollers with reversible handles.
I made many calls to try to order one, but they are discontinued.

As for a car seat, Graco is really the best. We have one, and I second
the earlier suggestion given for using it without the base, especially
since my husband and I are both also blind.

If you plan to breastfeed, I highly recommend the Breastfriend pillow.
They have two kinds, both a stay-at-home one and an inflatable one for
traveling. It is similar to a Boppy with the exception that you can
fasten it around yourself to keep the pillow in place. Both these
pillows are C-shaped. I have both breastfeeding pillows, but the
Breastfriend has worked great for me.

Best wishes on your baby.

Kia
