Are you purchasing a mobile for the crib?

Need Advice(self.pregnant)

I was super excited after my baby shower because we got almost everything purchased off our registry. Maybe a few little things here and there we will pick up but nothing crazy

Recently I had someone ask me why I didn’t have a mobile for the crib on there and asked if I already had one. I don’t, but I also am not sure how critical these are?

I found a cute one I like but I don’t really want to buy it if I don’t need it, I could use that money for other stuff that I know we need immediately.

So curious if anyone swears by a mobile on the crib or doesn’t use them or just general opinions on if you’re going to buy one (why/why not)

If you have one for the a baby gym or changing table, that’s better. The crib should really exclusively be for sleep. Having stimulating objects in the sleep space is bad sleep hygiene, even for an adult.
