Baby's bedroom

Linen - We got 3 sets and this has been plenty for us, still to this day we only have 3 sets.
Bibs - I didn't really start using bibs until DD started eating solids, I preferred to use a facewasher or flannelette nappy.
Nappies - I didn't start DD in MCNs until she got out og hospital at 3 months so I haven't had a newborn in MCN's yet.
I am planning on getting 24 prefolds made with 4-6 covers.
I have 5 fitteds and 1 cover already and some one sized that DD wears.
I really like the Pop in nappies and they have got great leg gussets for newborn poos so I plan on getting more of them that can be shared with DD or used as a night nappy.
Wipes - I have about 20 wipes/facewashes (itti bitti wipes are the best!, I use these for poos as they grab so well and are so soft, facewashers for wees)
Clothes - Hmm, another thing I am still to learn as DD was in hospital and she wore alot of long sleeve, no leg, button up suits.
I HATE singlets, I prefer the button up suits, either singlet, tshirt or long sleeve. Best and less have sales every now and then for $2 each, I stock up!

Baby's bath time

Towels - I was given soooo many as gifts, I have about 3 that I rotate, I personally prefer the normal towels over the hooded ones.
Bath - Don't buy a fancy one, they aren't in it long enough, we were given a basic one (from the op shop) and it was fine! DD moved into the big bath at 3 months.
Body Wash - I bought 1 x Gaia Body Wash and 1 x Gaia Moisturiser, I am just about to replace the wash, I have barely used the moisturiser, I personally do not feel I need to use it.
I LOVE paw paw, it is a must have!

Baby's feed time

Cannot help with the bottles, sorry.
Sterlizer - I have an avent electric one and it is fantastic!
Feeding Chair - I used the bouncer in the early days, I personally don't think a highchair is needed until 6 months (or later).

Baby's play/awake time

Books - Yep, DD has always loved her books
Bouncer - One was bought for us and is great
Play Mat - Not required for the first 4 months or so, but is a nice safe place to lie baby when you are busy (given to me as a gift).
I have a home made quilted blanket - DD spent so much time on this and still does. I prefer this over a play mat.

Baby's travel time

Car Seat - I have a 'premier', cannot remember the brand, love it, will get the same one for this baby.
Pram - I have a steelcraft strider, love it, will have to sell it and buy a new double pram though.
Carrier - I had a sling carrier for DD when she was younger, used it all the time, much easier than the pram in a busy shop or quick stops. I have an ergo also now that she is a bit bigger, love it too.
Travel Rugs - I have way to many! One stays in the car, one under the pram, rotate when needed .

These are all of my personal opinions Nae, I know I read others and think hmm I would never use that item but it is on their must have list! We are all different, and unfortunatly we don't know what works for us until it happens

Good Luck and have fun shopping.
