Ahahahahah and Babylicious you said I've inspired you...

Lets see... we have...

Travel system (hasn't arrived yet.. )
A teddy bear
A rattle
An assortment of around 10 blankets from when Tia and I were babies (woolly and cotton)
One fitted cot sheet (from Tia)
Three Cardigans (Ive knitted them, but need to get buttons )
One fleesy baby gro
4 baby gros
6 vests (2 short sleeved, 2 long sleeved, 2 no sleeved)
3 2 piece out fits
5 little jacket type things (made of cotton)
Pair of scratch mits,
pair of bootees
2 little caps

And all the clothes came from one ebay bundle box for under 20€ so I was dead chuffed with that.

Oh yes... baby wipes... but that was an accident... I told my DH to buy some when he ordered out shopping, and he didn't realise that he asked for the special offer one, so a pack of 2 became a pack of 5...

[gemmap27]

I have 2 2nd hand travel systems - a Graco Deluxe and also a Mamas and Papas Pliko 3. Bought both for bargain prices - both are at mums cause I am a bit superstitious.

I have bought nothing else - but we have turned our Double 2nd bedroom into 2 rooms to create an office/craft room and a nursery. Both are now painted and carpeted.
Cant wait to fill the nursery with loads of cute stuff!!

 

[Gruntie2]

not much yet
3 all in ones
7 pk vests
2 pairs socks
4 flannels
2 fleece blankets

thats is.. was bidding on a pram on eby but lost that....

 

[monster_munch]

Nothing, I'm too scared.
Will start shopping after 20 week scan. I can't wait!

Although we already have a pushchair and a cot from DD and also 2 car seats. We do have a steriliser but I probably won't use that if feeding this LO is anything like feeding DD (although I hope not, I'm dreading it ) so most of the big purchases are already done.

 

[Kimbo]

where do i start lol

what weve got:

cot
bedding
bottles
dummies
moses basket & stand
bedding for moses basket
cot mobile
pram/car seat
bath
baby cushion
toiletries like powder, baby shampoo etc
carry sling
changing mat
loads and loads and loads of clothes!! (baby has more clothes than me at the minute!)


what we need;

nappies - reusable
monitors
stair gates
changing bag
steriliser and bottles

 

[Pregnopaws]

Pram
Carseat
Baby bath
Various vests and babygros in white/cream/yellow colours
sterliser
breast pump
dummies/wipes/bibs
moses basket
photo frame (cute one where you add a photo for each month of babys life up to 1 yr)

I haven't bought the furniture/nursery stuff, and blankets etc yet cos I want to wait for a gender scan if possible. I've noticed that EVERYTHING for babies in Spain tends to be bright pink or blue and very little else.

I wanna get a maternity pillow soon but cant find them in Spain either.

I still have a long list and hardly touched it, and i know its not necessary for a while, but I totally didnt think about high chairs and bouncers and stuff like that

 

[lisa&alex]

opps i forgot i got bibs too lol...so what else do we all need to get?coz i honestly cant think.. i want a swing chair/bouncer thing..a small one.. ive see the 1 i want in argos for like 50 quid..but i can get that after

Well you can try getting a maternity pillow from ebay... I had a look on there but funnily enough, the ones I found looked remarkably like those really silly long pillows they have over here....and it's true.... So I just got one of them from Carrefore. It was half the price and just as practical...

We have a Mothercare near us and they do the maternity wedges... I really want a b/f pillow, but can't find one of those here either.

As for baby furniture... It's true... Spain is terribly sexist...it's either blue or pink...theres no such thing as team green here... But Ikea (dunno if theres one down where you are) do nice bedroom furniture, cheap too.

Do you think it'll be just as good if I buy another one and sew them together LOL?
There is no ikea down here either, but Mothercare in gibraltar is ridiculously overpriced!
