We have been TTC for 16 months and we haven't actually bought anything but have had a lot of things given to us by my sister and sister in law. We already have a cot, bassinet, pram, 2 car seats (one for newborn and another for over 6 months), 2 change tables (1 wooden that would go in the baby's room and the other is a portable which could go in lounge room), brand new in box toys that my sister never opened for her 11 month old, plenty of boys clothes (we're covered if we have a boy!), a couple blankets and a portable cot.

My sister in particular bought a lot of things new when she found out she was pregnant with her last bub because there was a 5 year gap between and she didn't have anything left. She was adamant that she wanted everything that I liked and that she had to come straight to me. Most of it has hardly been used so we're very lucky to have been given the chance of taking it all.

We just need a baby to use it all on...
