Unnecessary
Baby Bath, I used it once and it was a right pain in the backside, I had a washing up bowl just for DD in the end and it was her bath until she was old enough to join me in the tub. Its cheaper and easier to store.
Talc: girls shouldn't use it anyway around their ladies bits as it can cause problems so I have loads of the stuff unused
Baby shampoo: babies do not need anything but water for the first couple of months
Baby wipes: just use reusable wipes instead, the johnsons wipes were left sitting in the box and reusables were cheaper.
Essentials
reusable nappies: we were on a very tight budget so we purchased these second hand and stripped them, perfect as I never had to worry about finding the money for nappies every week.
Comforter: after 3 months my DD had a favourite comforter, it was the one we put to bed with her every night from day 1 so might be worth picking one now in the hope yours will do similar (have a spare)
