Congrats!

Doesn't sound like buying used is much of a problem cause I was gonna say don't buy used car seats unless you trust the original person that it hasn't been in an accident.

The other tip I had was not telling anyone that you are in labour and going in for delivery unless you REALLY need the emotional support. But with Covid I don't think it's really an option for ppl to visit anyways.

Allow friends and family to visit on YOUR TERMS. Don't let grandparents override you and guilt trip you.

In terms of kit, buy whatever you think you need. Don't let some one who tells you something is useless to sway you. The example I would use is the diaper genie. Some ppl say it's useless and a waste of money and refills are expensive just take out the trash more often, blah blah. We got it anyways. Our son is 25m old and we are still using it right now.

Oh and go get all the samples and free stuff. Toysrus gives out some free stuff if you sign up for a baby registry, same with London Drugs I think.
