A basic 100000-150000⚡️crib with height adjustment. Might be able to get one used. Either way you need to buy the mattress separate. Don't be lured into the convertible nonsense or built in drawers.

Also are congrats in order?

Our was wood lol.

You could literally use a drawer for a crib. Don't get swept up in the ads and propaganda and spend big sats on a crib. Babies are potatoes the first few months lol

Also, co-sleeping is free and best for baby (and mom) the first six months.

Ours was second(but likely 4th or 5th)hand from my cousin. Check garage sales and thrift stores. See if you guys have a kid to kid. Its a secondhand store for kid stuff and they dont take anything thats been recalled. As long as the slats aren't a size where a bitty could get body parts stuck, you're good. Get sleepsacks or nightgowns or footie pjs and dont use a ton of blankets or stuffies. My first 2 kids slept in the crib both of my brothers used. We used a Moses basket until he started moving more because its easier to keep them in a bassinet or something in your room for the first couple months.

Yeah until they are mobile you can just leave 'em anywhere. Once they can crawl you have to start containing them.
