    to be truthful all babies need, is somewhere to sleep, with a couple of sets of bedding, a car seat, a pushchair, and nappies and toiletries, if your bottlefeeding then you will need sterilizer and bottles etc. you can improvise with a lot of things, like a bath for a newborn is no different to a washing up bowl and so on.

    this is my last bubba so i've gone mad this time and bought a few extra bits, and bought the dearer items too, also i like to be colour co-ordinated with blankets etc and have different ones for car seat, pushchair and crib. well to give you some idea of what i have i#ll just list the whole lot (also i don't have space for a nursery so have not bought any nursery furniture)

    pushchair with carrycot, raincover and cosy toes
    changing bag
    carseat with pushchair adaptors
    2 fitted sheets for carrycot
    2 flat sheets for pram
    2 fleecey blankets for pram
    2 fleecey blankets for carseat
    carseat hanging toy
    pushchair hanging toy

    gliding crib
    4 fitted sheets
    4 flat sheets
    4 cotton cellular blankets
    anti-roll mat

    beanbag chair
    swing
    playmat
    2 blankets for chair
    2 blankets for swing

    bath
    4 pks nappies
    4 pks wipes
    bath
    changing mat and liner
    5 hooded towels
    5 baby flannels
    baby sponge
    bottle of johnsons soft wash
    baby lotion
    cotton wool

    breast pump
    3 nursing bras
    3 sleep bras
    120 breast pads
    sterilizer
    4x nuby silicone bottles (got to get another 2)
    mam newborn dummies
    bottle brush
    nipple shields
    nipple cream
    nipple soothers
    14 muslins
    10 bibs
