I made two lists .. one with the stuff I need, along with the brands of products that I use (hated getting things like shampoo in brands that I don't use) and one "wish" list. Things I don't really NEED, but would love to have, kwim?? (milk band, feeding pillow ... stuff like that)

I gave it to my Mother and told my MIL she has it, so they could just inform ppl if they inquire. We live in a rural town, so there are not baby-store around and for me to registar at a shop in the city seems like wasting ppl's time.

BTW - I LOVE that idea about the book Punkin .. that is really fresh!!
