Just curious as to what everyone else has purchased.

I am only 25 weeks but some of my main buys include:

Silver Cross Pioneer- absolutely love it
Olly Owl
So many clothes! (She has more dresses than I do)
A Snuzpod
Tommy Tippi dummies
Gro bags
Cuddle dry
Cath Kidston changing bag
Shnuggle baby bath
And lots of other things I forgot...

Also, does anyone have any recommendations for carriers? :)

I’m so excited to meet her, I think I’ve gone into organisation/ nesting mode already!!

Blimey you are organised! I'm 35 weeks and have just got the odd bits but still need a cot, snuzpod ect and my pram and car seat won't be delivered for a few weeks!

Strawberry that sounds quite sensible! I ended up going to the baby show in London so we got the travel system and things there. Are you getting a cot as well as Snuzpod? We were going to just use Snuzpod for a few months then buy a cot?

Glad it's not just me!
Also 25 weeks and have:

More clothes than I have!
travel system (came with changing bag)
crib
Bottles and steriliser in case bf doesn't happen
Nappies size 1+2
A hooded towel, need more
Blankets
Play mat
Cotton wool
Some bath stuff for when he's older
First cuddly toys!

Still need a bounce/hammock chair thing
Bath
Socks!
Cot and nursery furniture
Care seat base
Crib sheets (tutti bambini ones are £25 for 2! 😱)
A sling
Bits like sudo cream/ infant paracetamol/ infacol etc
Another changing bag(because I'm always late and unorganised so think if I always have one ready to go that'll help)
Moses basket for downstairs
Changing mat

And so much more 😱 desperate to get nursery cleared and decorated so can start to make sense of what we have and what we need!

I am 35 weeks and ready with the essentials (not done a nursery baby will be in with me for at least a year).

I am saving the rest of shopping for middle of the night cluster feeding Grin

Crickey, I'm 25 weeks and not feeling organised! I've always been very laid back and I seem to be taking the same approach here with baby prep. I have -

A changing bag
Moses basket (second hand from relative)
Various brands of nappies and wipes
A bag of second hand babygrows
Some maternity and breast pads

It's all plonked in the corner of the junk room as I'm convinced we'll find a new house to rent before the baby arrives....As PP said the baby will be in with us for some time anyway, so no rush on a nursery.

My family have also been slowly gathering things for us too, but they live 4 hours away and I've not visited recently to see what we have. I've been told to expect a car-full so maybe I'm more organised than I realise!

Chest of drawers
Bottles

Been given:
Mamaroo
Schnuggle bath
More clothes than we will ever need
Carrier
Schnuggle Moses basket

Snuzpod (not sure if we will use, never had it for first baby)

Had from last baby:
Cot
Car seat
Prep machine
Steriliser
Baby monitor
Playmat
Books
Toys
Highchair

People keep asking me what I want as gifts i have no idea as we already have so much 🙈
