my family is in Van and we often Canada Post stuff over so it's not an issue.
Great list Rabitrat.
1) got the daiper genie platnium - i have no say... wife made decision
2) Huckleberry - is one I got.. key things for those who are also exepcting - we registered the kid's new address early / already so that's pretty cool.
3) we got the bottle sterilzer - i had no say
4) will look into Bottle warmer
b) wife got breast pump, i also had no say.
5) Burp cloths - got a few of these from church hand me down + baby shower gifts.
6) White noise - falk that... they can white noise to my snoring in the bassinet LOL. We got one. we'll see if that works.
As to camersa.
Looking for mirrorless.. see if i actually go and pick it up. I think key is to ensure it's image stablized and f1.8 lens. Can't complain to buy toys I guess.
I'm eager to make this again.  | |

I have a 7D2 and a Tamron 17-50 f2.8 kicking around if you're interested. Not mirrorless but pretty good

I've never used the Costco bags so I can't compared but I was really happy with the Ubbi bags - my memory is fuzzy but I recall they had a very light texture to them, almost like a carbon fibre weave which I, of course, liked.

Anyone ever take their little ones to a Vancouver Canadians game? I want to take my 6 year old to one but I imagine it'll be hard to keep her focused for 3 hours (not that I'll be focused for 3 hours - ballgames are for eating food and enjoying the weather). They have a play area at the Nat but I can't find any info on what it's like.

They'd be bored out of their minds and asking to leave the moment the fries/popcorn you got for them is finished.
I was bored out of my mind.

My plan told me to kick rocks; wife bought a US pump and they reimbursed her so yeahhhhh saved 400 bucks right there!
some did say before to use the one at hospital and then rent the ones you like / try them all first and fine the right one... but wife says no... oh well.

We did use the hospital machine though, they give you brand new parts so it's just the machine that's shared.

Having used an UBBI and a Diaper Genie... Definitely prefer the UBBI. As a poster mentioned above, the costco garbage bags (the white ones, I can't remember the exact size) fit perfectly in the UBBI.
To mask the smell, put some coffee grinds at the bottom of the pail (regardless of which one you choose). A system we set up was only to put urine diapers in the pail and poopy ones separate. When we lived in an apartment, we would throw out the poopy diapers daily (or every other day) with the other garbage. Since we moved to a house, we just keep a separate garbage bin on the porch to put the poopy diapers...
Speaking on pumps, Canada life let me claim a spectra pump I purchased from Target. This was back in early 2024 before Trump. My wife tried the hospital pumps and some others but liked the spectra the most.
Good luck!!!
