what to buy?!

My husband and I are making a christmas wish list of all the things we need for when the baby arrives. Just wanted to see what experienced mum's out there think is absolutely essential? And have you bought something you didn't need and regretted buying in the end? We have a very restricted budget, so want to make sure we ask for the right things for Christmas and avoid buying unnecessary things. any advice would be very helpful thank you! X

Thank you ladies! I'm only 14 weeks pregnant but people are asking us what to buy for Christmas so we're trying to come up with a list. It's still so early though, maybe we should just ask for vouchers for now :-)

Don't go crazy on size newborn stuff... obviously some babies are small for a while but most don't stay in that stage long. A carseat is a must. A few blankets, diaper, bath soap, a few blankets...a crib or bassinet. I think personally some type of boppy is helpful.

When are you due? If you are fully breastfeeding you won't really need bottles. I'm just getting what's necessary like clothes, socks,  bibs, baby, wash baby lotion, I got clothes all the way up to 6-9 months.
