[leedsforever]

my dads taking me to mothercare tomorrow??

I need to try and think of what else I need??

does anyone have any ideas??

anyone brought anything they couldnt live without??

Hmm nothing that we couldn't live without but a few things that have really come in handy the last few weeks. Our plastic bath tub because it was too hard to bend over the tub and bath her in the bath chair. Her mobile, she loves it and it makes changing her much much easier because she's not crying (bonus is that sometimes she'll stay in there 15 minutes or so while I get some housework done). Cheap disposable diapers which we use as burp cloths, they are nice and big . Oh and yesterday bought an unbreakable mirror because babies at this age love to look at themselves (from what I've read and it seems to be true from Hannah's reaction).

arr cute at the mirror

yeh I have a plastic bath .... im thinking a body thermometer!! A digital one

She has a cot mobile but one for her changing mat is an idea!!

I've heard it's good to have one for the changing table, we just use the crib to change her

Mothercare sell a soother which is also a medicine dispenser, I reccommend that!! Purely because geting Kyle to take his anti-biotics is a nightmare, and I keep forgeting to pick one up!

That is a must buy lol. Already used mine when Kalea projectile puked 4oz over me lol. I thought she was unwell, turned out she'd just been greedy!

I've never used a changing table. Anywhere you can change the diaper seems just fine.

However, I was given one by a mother at Jayden's preschool recently. We use it for shelves for storing babies diapers and things. LOL

I never had one for mikey. I used a mat on the sofa/floor. But my mum bought me a table this time and I've used it every time because it's there lol.

I had that mobile for Bella and she adored it! Would keep her entertained for ages. It broke yesterday though but we must have used it everyday for the past few months so can't complain. Would definitely recommend one of these!!

You can get a digital thermometer that is a dummy, could be a good buy. It takes seconds to take a reading.
