I'm starting from scratch too and I've been finding the whole thing really daunting! So glad that you started this thread, Mel!!

Amysarah, I'd love to have a look at your PowerPoint on what to get too, pretty please! I'll PM you my email address.

I have five weeks to go and things I know I still need/like to get are: baby bouncer/rocker, rocking chair, change mat for change table, baby swing/hammock, chest of drawers, snugglebed, cot mattress protector, nappybin, babybath, bottle steriliser, breast pump in case, bottles... Feels like I'm running out of time now. And I just know there are things I should have but don't know about!

Things I have already: bassinet that someone's lent me, a changetable that someone's given to me, a cot, reversible carseat, Maclaren vogue stroller (it's really light) suitable for newborns, waterproof mattress protector for my bed, clothes, bibs, linen (had a heap given to me), wipes, newborn nappies, wraps, some creams, mild babywash, and breastpads.
