The stroller will probably be one of your biggest purchases, and we think it's quite a fun one too! We think that it's best to have purchased the stroller by about 36 weeks, just in case the baby arrives early. Option B- Full disclosure here- some people skip the stroller and just get a carrier like a front pack We still think that the stroller is essential. We recommend: Snuzpod bedside crib.
Your baby will sleep in a bassinet at night, usually in your bedroom for the first six months. Having the baby in the bedroom next to you makes night time feeding a little easier, and it's safer too. You'll need the bassinet from the day you bring baby back from hospital. Option B- if your bedroom is big enough you could put the cot in there and skip the bassinet altogether. We recommend: Chekoh Original Wrap.

You can use one of these handy wraps right from birth. They're nowhere near as difficult to use as you'd think, and babies love to be close to you and feel your heartbeat. I gave one to a friend who had a newborn that wasn't sleeping well during the day, and she says it's amazing- she can put him in the wrap and get a few things done around the house, walk down to the shops and wallah! He sleeps through the whole thing. We recommend: Maxi-Cosi Cabriofix and Base. You won't be allowed to leave the hospital without a capsule or car seat for your baby to travel in.
It's a good idea to install the capsule a couple of weeks before due date, just incase baby arrives early.
For Expecting Mothers Only
All the capsules that we sell can be used up until 13kg, although most babies will grow out of their capsule in length before weight, somewhere around a year old. If you opt for a bassinet, baby probably won't use the cot until around six months old, so you could put this purchase off. That said, if you're thinking of 'doing' a nursery, you'll probably be more in the mood for it before the baby arrives, rather than when they're six months old and ready to actually use the nursery.
We recommend looking for a cot that will convert to a toddler bed, which you'll probably use until baby is around 3 years old, or when their new younger baby brother or sister needs the cot. You don't really need a change table, it's a big piece of furniture, when you could just use a foam pad on top of a chest of drawers, on a bed, or on the floor. Change tables are pretty handy though! They're a good place to store all your nappies and creams, and little babies need their nappies changed many, many times a day, so you'll use it lots.
Nappy bags are great things to have, they have lots of space for bottles, food, changes of clothes, and of course nappies, but they're not completely necessary. You could just use a big handbag. We're big fans of The Roundabout Clutch from Pretty Brave , which can carry some spare nappies and wipes, and fit inside your nappy bag or big handbag. A baby mirror attaches to the headrest in the car, just above where baby's car seat is installed. It'll allow you to see baby in your rear view mirror, and we think it's a great little thing to have, you'll use it until you turn your baby's car seat around to forward facing when they're about two years old.
When to buy: After baby is born for the fancy pumps, we recommend purchasing the Haakaa pump pre-baby. We recommend: Haakaa Silicone Breast Pump. We recommend waiting until baby is here and you know where your breastfeeding journey is heading before investing in one of the more expensive pumps. Some hospitals rent high-powered pumps too. The Haakaa pump is amazing for relieving the sore, engorged boobs that you'll probably get in the first couple of weeks after baby is born.

You can use it in the shower to express ml, which will relieve the engorgement, or you can use it on the opposite side when you're feeding baby to help the other breast not feel so full. You'll need breast pads to prevent milk soaking through your clothes, it's true!! At the start you'll probably want something more absorbent like the Haakaa Disposable Nursing Pads , and when baby gets a little bit older you could start using something like our Global Baby Cotton Washable Breast Pads. I remember asking a colleague, before I had my first baby, if I would really need the pads.
She laughed and said 'yes, you definitely will'. They're kind of like sanitary pads, but a bit thicker and without the pretty packaging. It's mean because at the supermarket they're usually right down on the bottom shelf no one's impulse buying them right?
After birth
Buy them before you have the baby because it'll be pretty hard to bend down to that shelf afterwards. You'll probably need to use them for a few weeks after the baby is born.
