While you're there make sure you get some of their flannel towels with coloured loops - great for prams... and the high chair is excellent (but get the little insert to help bub when they're small), and the cloth book is the best toy... and ... I could keep going! We're big fans of Ikea! LOL
I would make sure you've got plenty of room, so you can shop til you drop!
We have an IKEA change table and it's maybe sturdier than the house. My boys have tested this by climbing it regularly.
Keep in mind things like cots have to be made to a certain Australian standard, so the IKEA ones will definitely comply. They're great for babies, fun toys, cheery room decorations, cheap towels...
Ohhh, and we bought a few of the little night lights from the kids section in IKEA - they are awesome for having on to check on bubs without waking him - definately grab one of those - and their cot sheets are good value too
Ooooh and the inflatable change mats - great for after the bath etc too
I have got the cheapy change table ($70) and love it, havent had a problem, easy to put together etc, change pad on top is good and they sell the towelling covers for it too.
Mummynaomi ... Are you able to describe what the Ikea night-light looks like ... just i'm after one & looking to maybe head to Ikea in Melb within the month
Its called a SPOKA - if you go to the IKEA australian site and search for SPOKA it should come up to view the 3 types - it looks like a little ghosts head (not scary, very cute) and comes in a flatter version too, we have a blue one and a green one - I think they are about $25AU. You just press the top of it and it goes on/off and once charged you can put it where ever as doesn't need to be plugged in, and it stays on the whole night, but is dimmer by morning as the charge runs out, or you can leave it plugged in....... It gives of a soft light so doesn't disturb bubs but lets you see - I think the blue one gives better light personally
