Umm, I bet I end up spending far too much and feeling bad about it. How much can I spend on a 6 month old? I guess we'll see!

I said I wouldn't spoil her like my mum did me, but I can't help myself! I keep going shopping to get one thing and ending up spending over £200 on her. Rich isn't too happy with that as we're meant to be saving..

Depends on how much your kids will get from family, friends etc

It sounds mean but for the first 2 years i wont buy that much...too young to appreciate it and would probably be more interested in the wrapping paper!! I have two brothers and a sister plus my mum who will be buying for him/her......when i was younger my mum bought us one main present (the expensive one) each and we got little stocking fillers like socks knickers pens books etc
