Making a list of the things I still need for babys arrival. I don't have a humidifier, will I need one? I'm from NY and it is dry there and a humidifier is a necessity in the winter. But we are already pretty humid here in FL and I've never used one since I moved here 11 years ago. I read that you shouldn't use a warm one for babies because there is a burn risk, but it would be high up on her tall dresser. So if you think I will really need one, should it be warm or cold?
I also don't have a monitor yet and while I was shopping them online I noticed that lots of them have humidity sensors. I'm wondering if there is some danger in humidity?
Do I sound like I shouldn't be allowed to have a baby? ![]()
Re: Moms - ? about humidifiers
Alright sounds good, thank you:) Maybe I'll just hold off until she gets her first cold and then send DH to WalMart or CVS in the middle of the night for one if we need it. I'm half kidding about that second part, but I'm trying to only buy what we really need right now.

Wow that one has 456 5 star reviews and is very affordable. I'm going to add it to my Amazon registry and get another 10% off with my completion and put it on my to buy list. Thanks
( I love that it's also in pink!)
ETA - Congrats on your pregnancy also!!
We bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/Vicks-Warm-Mist-Humidifier-Shut-Off/dp/B001FWXKTA/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1323135010&sr=1-1 on sale at BRU for $20. It was extremely dry this past winter and Lila got a cold when she was itty bitty, it helped a ton with her congestion.
ETA: Make sure to only use distilled water. It will keep it from getting gross and growing bacteria.

Do you buy gallons of distilled water? I've been looking up how to distill it and apparently you need a vaporizor. I thought you just boiled it and let it cool but apparently that causes it to have even more minerals.

We have this one as well, and I have used it for Isaiah as well as for myself. It works great. You can get it at walmart for under 30$$
I second this. Along with those diaper pail thingys. I always end up throwing the pee pee diaper in the regular trash (as long as they are not left in for over a day they don't stink) and I throw the poopy diapers outside in the trash immediately. I found the diaper pail thingy stunk to high heaven when it was time to change it. Oh my gawd, that smell was awful.
