What things did you buy for your babies that was a waste of money?

Laurla98 @Laurla98 (786) • United States 30 Sep 07

smin2x I bought a mocrowavable sterilizer but I did not use it because I have to sterilize plenty of bottles and it won't fit into it. It was really a wast of money, I'm just thinking I will give it as a present to one of my friends when they will have a baby.
