I'm 25weeks pg with DC3. DC1&2 are 6 and 7 now so it feels like a lifetime ago that I had a baby and I'm starting from scratch. I have so far bought:
a travel system and car seat base
Changing bag
14 vests in newborn or up to 1 month size
10 baby grows in newborn or up to 1 month size
5 vests 0-3months
3 baby grows 0-3 months
Bibs (copious amounts - I'll never forget the endless puking)
Muslin towel thingys (about 5 or 6)
I'm planning on breast feeding but should I get bottles, steriliser, breast pump etc?
Should I get a Moses basket or crib? I co-slept with both DC but am planning on avoiding that this time if possible because DS often comes in during the night and I have visions of him squishing the poor baby.
We walk the school run most days so I'm thinking a sling might be practical? Again - I have no idea where to start as I never used one with DCs.
Any recommendations would be hugely appreciated! Budget really isn't much of an issue but at the same time, I don't want to waste money on things I really won't need.
