Due end of June. First babe.

My feeding "plan" is to breast feed and once it's established, introduce a bottle for husband to feed once daily. Mainly used as a bonding option as well as having baby accustomed to a bottle in case anything were to happen and breast wasn't available. I know that my plan could go out the window depending on a lot of factors but this is what I would like to prepare for. If I knew how... Can I please get support on what to purchase in prep for this situation when it comes to pumps and bottle wears ect. If only pumping once daily for the next days bottle, is a wearable like ye Momcozy M5/6 a viable option? I have learned that wearables should never be used as your exclusive pump but I don't feel like my situation would warrant "exclusive" terminology, or does it? Should I only purchase a hand pump until I know for sure this is a working plan for us? I bought 5 small bottles for now and don't want to overdo it with the cleaning equipment, storage ect. Advice? (Mostly about the pumps).

Due end of June! First babe.

I finally had my baby shower and was waiting to see what I was gifted prior to purchasing anything. It's been so hard and now I feel like I am in shopping mode. For BC (Vancouver) weather, having a June/July baby, please help me with clothing. I was mostly gifted a ton of swaddles/blankets and a few footed sleeves onesies, and sleeveless onesies but that's it (and mostly in larger sizes). Does baby sleep in a sleeveless wrapped in swaddles? How many different types of onesies should I buy? Socks, mits, toques, ect? Also, so I buy all 0-3M size? Any kind reasonable suggestions are appreciated!
