[quote=Anonymous]Don't stockpile much. Just buy what you will need for the first two weeks. That said, it would be good to have the following on hand before your baby is born:

Size 1 diapers and one small pack of wipes (don't buy a whole box of these - just a pack. Your baby may have skin allergies and need to use more sensitive diapers and wipes so don't buy too much in bulk. They grow very fast in the first week or two so unless you have a preemie, you will not need the newborn ones)
Formula - maybe a pack of ready-to-feed bottles but don't buy the tubs yet. It is expensive and your baby might not like the taste or be allergic, especially if you are planning to BF.
Thermometer
Bulb to suck boogers out
A few receiving blankets
Small nail scissors and baby nail file
If you plan to BF, I would have on hand the following:
Lanolin - or if you are allergic, some other nipple cream
Nipple shields
Pump and pump parts
1 or 2 day supply of bottles (if you are going to BF, you just need 4 little bottles. If not, maybe 10 small bottles)
Diaper rash cream[/quote]
