    cot bed & mattress
    chest of drawers
    blanket box/chest
    cot mobile
    baby bath
    bumbo
    baby sling/carrier
    moses basket & stand
    Moses basket fitted sheets x 2
    iCandy pram
    car seat/foot muff
    buggy arch (with toys on)
    blankets (mix of cellular, fleece, crochet)
    bottles/teats
    changing bag x 2 (free Boots Parenting Club one)
    bouncer chair
    Tommee Tippee Nappy Bin (I wasn't bothered about getting one of these but OH got it cheap in the staff shop when I wasn't there to supervise his spending!) and refill cartridges
    Electric steriliser
    Travel steriliser
    Small microwave steriliser box for soothers/teats
    Angelcare monitor
    BT 200 monitor (given as gift after we'd got the Angelcare one!)
    Bibs
    Burping cloths

    Nappies
    1 x Huggies Newborn Size 1 (27)
    3 x Pampers Newborn Size 2 (35)

    Clothes
    hats/booties/scratch mitts
    newborn warm all-in-one x 2
    newborn playsuit (i.e. longsleeved but footless) x 3
    newborn sleepsuit x 10
    newborn sleevless vest x 9
    newborn bodysuit (short-sleeved vest) x 10
    small baby coat x 1
    0-1m coat x 1
    0-1m sleepsuit x 4
    0-3m bodysuits x 11
    0-3m sleepsuits x 12
    0-3m playsuit x 1
    0-3m long-sleeved bodysuit x 1
    0-3m coat x 1
    3-6m bodysuit x 1
    6-9m bodysuit x 2
    hooded bath towel & bath mitt

    Still to get:
    muslin cloths
    reuseable wipes
    change mat
    cot bed bedding
    breast pump (probably won't get until after baby's arrived and I've found out if I can breast feed or not)
    reuseable nappies
    some more disposable nappies for first couple of weeks before moving to reuseables
    breast pads
    maternity pads
    I know there's some other stuff on my list too but can't think what they are off the top of my head, and I can't find the list...

    The vast majority of the baby clothes I have got from ebay, and most of the other stuff came from the staff shop, so new but cheap! Don't know how much I've spent so far but it's been spread out over the last 4-5 months so it's been manageable.

    Annabella, your list is great, and you're putting my mind at rest that Im organised enough, I have everything on your list, apart from the nappy bin, have other people got one of these? Bit worried about stinky nappies now!!

    Like I said, I wasn't really that fussed about getting one, I was happy to get scented nappy sacks and just put them straight in the normal bin but OH was in the staff shop and saw it so he bought it, and I wasn't there to talk him out of it, so we have one!

    hmmm might be a thought Annabella.

    Bit bored now knowing that I have the whole evening stretching before me with very little planned.... still not in my jarmies, think I might put them on and get cozy on the sofa with my blankie, might even treat myself to some icecream later, really wish i had a good film to watch or some girlie company, but hey ho, might get my kniting out... oh I'm so rock and roll I dont know how I live with myself lol
