That’s a good list. Just want to say not to bother taking a coat or snowsuit for baby if you’re going home in the car as they are unsafe to use with babies in car seats. Better off using a cardigan and/or blanket for warmth getting them home. Snowsuits are better saved for walks in the pram/carrycot.

You also won’t need socks till they’re a bit bigger and wearing outfits. Oh and try to use sleepsuits with built in scratch mits if you can- scratch mits are such a faff and just always end up falling off! Xx

Partly will depend on how long you're in. I burned through 3 sleep suits in a day so had to keep getting more brought in as we were kept in a bit.
