Yes - i agree with stocking up on wipes, nappies etc...especially when you see them on sale as you will not believe how many you'll use!!! (newborns go through about 6-8 nappies a day!). I'd take it easy on the creams, powders etc for bubs cause we still have stacks and Ella is 14 months - they do go a long way on their little bodies.

Antoher thing i have found invaluable is my 'Music for Dreaming' CD. I began listening to it when i was winding down before bubs arrived and she still goes off to sleep listening to it. She just associates sleep time with her music.
