Well we really have to start from scratch again as I didn't think I'd be having another bub until after I finished Uni at least.
But in saying that, I will also be sticking to bare essentials. I'm also going second-hand with a lot of the big stuff this time. For my first I wanted new everything but I guess near-new is just is good in the long run.
Couldn't agree more. I was so stressed with getting DD1's room ready before she arrived - she sleeps with us and her room is used for nappy changes and storage.
I have bought a couple of onesies just for this DD2 but as she is our second summer girl, there really isn't anything we need.
So true. Like Sara I'm starting again, and I have bought 'stuff' but only boring stuff I know I'll use. I'm not even buying a cot or bassinette as DS never slept in his so not going to bother with the struggle. Will just co-sleep.
Rhichichi our baby blankets got fed to the dolls too and I have seriously just finished with the nappy sack stash I got from DD's three babyshowers (two kids and 5.5years ago lol). I use cloth nappies but they substitute well for wetbags.
I have a bit of a mix for this bub - we had to start from scratch as I don't have any of DD's baby stuff left anymore, so we've bought the basics and have a lot of hand-me-downs from SIL and a few others. We're now just sitting back and waiting to see what else we need once he's here...
SO true! With DD2 she was almost here and everyone kept asking me if I had everything and I hadn't bought anything! lol. Just nappies and basics like that. I felt like I was forgetting something vital but all a baby needs is nappies, boobs, clothes and love. I had so much stuff I never used with DD1.
