Just curious why you have a crib aswell as a moses basket? Why not buy just the crib and save some money for some more cute clothes?

Also a thermometer? I bought the Tommee Tippee health kit in the Asda baby event which had one in it

cratch mits, hat for coming home in, lots of soft loo roll for you, for after the birth. i also like to stock up on lots of goodies a week or two before, stuff to keep the kids amused, chocs, nice puddings, micro meals for lazy days or when youve been up all night, a nice warm blanket to put over you and baby when doing the night feeds.

keep the list going, im getting ideas myself

Hey girls

OMG I have so much stuff to get!!! That list scares me! But I love Excel spreadsheets (geek) so may copy that idea Thanks for the ideas x

 

[laura3103]

thanks ladies clothes and things for my hospital bag is all sorted its just the big expensive things i need checking.x

girls as for nice soft loo rolll it will still feel like sand paper after you have had stitchs my advice would be to use a baby wipe feels nice and cool and cleans at the same time.x

no going to buy a bottle warmer as i will be making bottles fresh and then using the microwave 20 seconds and a good shake sorted thats what i did with gert.

luckly i only paid £10 for my moses basket and stand and £15 for my crib so both cmae to less than a moses basket would cost on its own,x

well i can offically say i've now got everything i need for my little man just need to find somewhere to put it all now fxd i move before he arrives otherwise he will be sleeping in the hall lol
