What to buy

When is baby due and where do you live? Also I’d look up videos on YouTube of like minimal baby essentials. You don’t need a ton of and if you’re breastfeeding you’ll need even less but really you don’t need a lot unless you want to and you can put fun things on the registry and if someone gets it for you then awesome

1)Nuby rapid cool set must have if formula feeding, especially if out and about and overnight.
2) next to me for overnight
3) I did have a moses basket but baby outgrew it very quick, ended up getting a travel cot that can be used in a few postions and as playpen (so I would personally skip moses basket)
4) nappy caddy to keep your nappy stuff together (i would recommend bepanthen as nappy cream - has vaseline in it, very good- my 6 month old has not had any nappy rashes but we do use water at home & baby wipes if out & about)

There’s so much stuff sold to you once you start looking. Somewhere for baby to sleep, a car seat for the journey home, plenty of nappies, some sleepsuits, a hat and a bottle or two incase you end up bottle feeding and lots of muslins would be my bare essentials. For you, nightdresses for the hospital and the big disposable pants.

With my first I felt like I needed to have everything for every possible situation and totally forgot that Tesco will still be open and Amazon delivers next day. You’ll tweak so much once baby comes so if you don’t have some things you can get them pretty quickly x
