What did you buy?....

It seems people love giving newborns fluffy toys and mums flowers. How can you avoid this? (we have no room for the fluffy toys plus they are dustcatchers, flowers set off my allergies, both are such an extravagance when what we really need are cloth nappies). How do you go about this without feeling awkward and rude?

Cause i am having baby shower - will prob ask for no gifts at the hospital, otherwise people will be thinking that they have to buy twice for me. Ofcourse - people are more then welcome to
