What do you get for the baby before his/her arrival? I have a friend who thinks it's bad luck to buy anything before the baby is here. Any suggestions on what is most crucial on day 01 of baby? (Her mum has been assigned to do the running around for that).

Cot/playpen/moses basket - whatever you choose for baby to sleep in crib bedding sets (I have at least 5 sets in case of diaper accidents) baby bath tub with a sling/seat/bed for newborn baby wash (I use Lactacyd Baby Bath for head to toe for now, but I also used this local organic lavender shampoo and wash for my firstborn which was really nice and mild) wet wipes newborn diapers grooming kit (must include brush with super soft bristles) healthcare kit (must include thermometer, dropper) bottles and nipples (to prepare for when you go back to work) bottle sterilizer bottle drying rack baby bottle dishwashing soap baby detergent Sling Pump Car Seat
