The one thing I have always said is that I'm not fussed about outfits for newborns, maybe 1 or two for occassions but I absolutely ADORE newborns in sleepsuits and think they should stay in them for a while rather than be dressed as little people.

I was actually wondering about a changing table thing? Are they not worth it? Because some are actually very expensive.

 

[cho]

I had a millie aand boris one and cost like 100 and i used it prob the first week for changeing but never used the bath!!
Dont waste ur money honestly!
I agree i hate newborns in things like jeans there too rough for there skin ect imo

 

[till bob]

[Kerrieann]

Exactly what i did, i just wanted everything and got everything off the "lists" lol. Was going to say change station too, luckily we didnt get one tho. we had a chest of drawers that had a change bit on top with a changing mat and this was brill as had loads pof storage and it came in a set with the cotbed and wardrobe!

Oh my due date changed to the 18th its not the 16th anymore

Have changed you hun!

I wont be getting a changing unit, just a decent thick changing mat that can be carried upstairs/downstairs for easy changing.

Just been to Aldershot to get a sample of the red used on OH's No1 dress and now think it's a shade of red that doesn't suit me

 

[lozzy21]

Changing tables are a waste of time. For me a changing mat in aswell cos i just end up changing baby on my knee.

i bought an electric swingign chair thing and a baby rocker chair for DS which he only went in about twice cause he hated both of them!! Also when he got a bit older I bought him a door bouncer thing and he didn't like that either!!!
I found he was better lying on one of those baby gym mat things!
Top and tail bowl - yeah we had one of those and never used it!!!

As for what I've bought so far.................... erm........................... nothing!! Lol!! Well except the steriliser and bottles we got 2 years ago when we first started trying!!!! I'm not planning on getting anything else until after the 20wk scan as we'll know the sex then and that everything is OK with bubs etc!

As for nappies I love pampers and have quite a few vouchers for them so will be getting at least a couple of packs of them, huggies I found always leaked with DS but I have a voucher for a free pack at tesco so will get aat least one pack I guess!! Other than that I always used tesco's own for DS and found them brilliant and then later on used Asda's own active fit nappies. DH says that Boots own r just like pampers but obviously cheaper! I wouldn't recommend Sainsburys as tried those and they were rubbish!!!!
I'll have to start using my nappy voucers soon as I think they expire before baby's due!!!!

 

[sammiwry]

I'm pretty sure someone at work told me Tesco's nappies are pampers... but don't quote me on that!!


I will be getting mainly size 2 and one lot of size 1 to take into hospital, as chances are Pebble will be around the 8lb/9lb round mark as I was big and so was OH so don't see much point in size 1's when Pebble could be out of them fairly quickly!

oh its morrisons that are pampers hun, what i was told

Bradley loved swing chair lived in it and bouncer and he also loved door bouncer mad how babies are diff

I can't believe how different I am from you guys Makes me feel like the odd one out, lol.

I lived for my monitor! Wouldn't have been able to survive without one. We have the Angelsounds with the sensor mat, and we did so many test runs with it to make sure the sensor would pick up lack of movement etc. It could partially be due to the fact that for 5 months Greg had monitors on him in the hospital, so we became quite used to just watching monitors. so yeah, I'm definately a monitor mom.

We also used out change table LOADS!! Greg loved being on it, and it was convenient to just plop him on, strap him in and change his diaper. After he was done using it for a changing table we just took the pad off of it, and we use it as a storage chest for toys, and to put his little VSmile on.

This time around, we have decided to splurge on a combo dresser/change table made out of solid wood, so it is a bit more sturdy. This way, we just pop a change pad thing on top, and when we don't need a change table, we will whip it off and it will be a good sturdy dresser.

 

[cho]

see a dresser i agree with however im not talking about one of them im talking
