Baffled at how much of everything I need and don't want to over buy. Planning on doing a big shop visiting mothercare and the rest at the weekend and just need a little help as to what else I should buy and what I need more of. I already have the big items such as Pram cot and Moses just the clothes as the baby will be born early November so most likely need more cardigans etc?

So far I have
2 knitted cardigans 0-3
At least 20 bibs
5 pair socks
Pair of tights
8 hats
5 pair scratch mits
1 pair boots 3 pairs of shoes in 0-3 and 3-6
0-3 leggings
8 0-3 short sleeve vest
1 newborn short sleeve vest
6 newborn sleep suits (2 are thick velvety material)
3 upto 1 month sleep suits
3 0-3 sleepsuits and one thick babygrow?
1 0-3 dress
It seems like hardly nothing in the draws and know I will need a lot more just confused as to how much more in each sizes? X

They are a marvellous invention @BendydickCuminsnatch!

Unfortunately I only discovered them when DD was a bit older (we got one from a friend from Australia who said everyone used them there) but will be getting a few for my next one.

To be fair the Aldi one was a few years ago now, but it's worth keeping an eye out as I'm sure I've seen them since. Like you say though it is just luck and they probably aren't really as good quality as the real deal!

I haven't used any yet because I wasn't aware of them with DS1, but they look perfect! Only discovered zippy babygros when DS was like 18 months plus, wah! The wondersuits are soooooo much more fun than most of what I can find here! Excited to use them.

Dont go mad with hats and mittens...both my bubbas hated the hats and hate their hamds being covered

Why on earth have you bought shoes and boots for a newborn?!!
Mine is due end of November and I am going with mostly babygrows and vests for 1st 6 months as it's a real faff to actually dress newborns and they don't like being undressed and dressed again anyway. xx
