This is what i have so far, still need stuff for hosp bags etc x x x

Babies r us also has a great check list too. It is an expensive business, we spread the cost out from 8 weeks. I hate to think how much we have spent but our little man is worth every penny, take care XX

OMG this thread has scared me, all I have so far is a pram (should be delivering tomorrow) and a steam steriliser I think I need to get buying!!!!
