I'm keen to be as prepared as possible prior to baby's arrival.

We have around 3/4 packs of Size 1 and I think 3 packs of Size 2. Do you recommend to keep buying up the sizes or wait until they're here?

We also have a million packs of baby wipes too Grin

Anything else to recommend stocking up on?

We still use cotton wool and water during the day at home and wipes at night and when out for ease. I would get some nappy bags and breast pads. I was given disposable breast pads by someone who had them left over but found the ones you can wash and use again so much better! Also maternity pads! I wouldn’t bother getting too many nappies as we found certain ones fitted better than others so you could get loads to find they don’t fit great!

With my first I stocked up on nappies and wipes and nappy cream the cream was mainly because it was £9 a tube the one I wanted and also same with bath products and I honestly thought I had loads so did my husband but actually they only last a few weeks before we ran out of nappies so we had to go shops it's fine people saying go the shops but due to you never being able to tell how your labour will go or if you will feel like going shopping when you could just be spending time with your baby so personally I would stock up I will be again this time round but I will actually be buying more so I dont have to faff getting these basic items xx
