    Question Perth BBers - where did you get all your baby gear from?

    Hello!

    I've decided today that I'm going to stop freaking out and try to accept that I'm pregnant and most likely will stay that way until late January.

    I really want to start looking at baby stuff, which I've been dreaming about for so long.

    The problem is I have very little idea of what I need and where to get it from.

    Any recommendations for the best baby shops in Perth?

    I need everything, but would like to look at cots, change tables, prams, basinettes, baby capsules, clothes etc etc etc... All the paraphernalia. Am hoping I can convince DH to do a 'just for fun' shopping expedition tomorrow to check things out (and maybe pick up a few little items...)

    TIA

    Hey Devon

    Babyland in Osborne Park is great if you are NOR. Or we also like Babyroad in Myaree if you are SOR.

    Happy shopping!

    There is a baby bunting in Balcatta on Erin dale road...

    The other thing is check out the quokka or ebay - tehre are often great bargains on there, thigs like clothes, bouncers adnhigh charis (goddamn they are expensive!! lol)

    And Baby on a Budget - there is one in Port Kennedy but Im not sure where there other stores are
    Target, Big W adn KMart are also really great for sheet,s blankets, wipes are always cheaper, baths, nappy bags, etc, as they will be much cheaper than getting cot stuff from the nursery stores

    good luck and enjoy the shopping!!

    Thanks Limeslice, I have been thinking Kmart and Target for clothes, sheets, bath, nappy buckets etc

    I'll check out the Baby bunting in Balcatta (although not sure I can convince DH to visit two shops in one trip!).

    I'm sure I've seen a Baby on a Budget somewhere in Osborne Park, drove past it once before I was pg so can't remember. Will google it.

    They all sound great, thanks!

    I got everything for DD#1 at Baby Boom in Nedlands. Got a really great deal on everything because I bought it all in the one place. There is a Baby on a Budget in King Edward Street, Osborne Park and Babyland on Frobisher Street, Osborne Park.

    Happy shopping!
