Thanks for Reading xxx will eagerly await your reply x
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.
