Okay, at 28 weeks pregnant tomorrow and entering my 3rd trimester, I am seriously starting to think about what we need to buy for this baby. Being baby number three we don’t need a huge amount (apart from a car seat) but then again……
I know they say you don’t need a lot for a newborn but there are so many gorgeous things out there nowadays, it is hard not to get sucked in and want everything.
With two little girls already – we do have the necessities (pram, cot, etc) plus clothes, blankets, toys and pink stuff in abundance. However, I do want this little bundle to have a few new things of her own. Just to make her feel as loved and special as the others did.
So far she has new baby grows/nighties, a few new dresses & blankets, a baby carrier and a few things I have been sent to review ( more details coming soon)! I know we have more than enough to get by. She definitely doesn’t need any more clothes!
However, I have been dreaming (no harm in that) and if money was no object, here are the things I would like my little girl to have:
The Stokke Xplory in hot pink
With the car seat to match of course …how cute is this?
She would look so stylish and be so comfortable in this travel system.
The Angelcare video and movement sensor monitor
We have the one without the video but would love to upgrade.
The Stokke fitted sheet, bumper and sleeping bag in pink spot to update her Stokke Sleepi mini. It is the most beautiful cot in the world but both her Sisters have used the bedding now so it could do with an update.
The Stokke Trip Trap with newborn set
I almost brought this high chair for the girls but didn’t for one reason or another. I wish I had and would love bump to have one this time round.
I absolutely love the idea of the newborn set so even newborns can be at the table with the rest of the family. Of course it would have to be in pink…or maybe a white chair with pink newborn set, i’m not sure yet!
Now I might already have a baby carrier but I am loving the idea of baby wearing and would love one of the gorgeous Moby wrap’s:
Luckily it comes in a fabulous fuchsia colour, perfect for this household.
Some pretty new baskets for storage and decoration would be useful:
These ones come from JoJo Maman Bebe and are absolutely adorable. The pink bows are so pretty and girly.
Oh some new swaddle blankets would be good too. I absolutely love these ones from Merino Kids:
We do have lots of baby towels already but I love the idea of the Cuddldry ones.
Oh and as a special treat for Mummy, well it would have to be a lovely new Pink Lining Mummy bag in pink butterflies:
Just gorgeous don’t you agree?
I think my Husband would have a panic attack if he read this post!
My shopping list is growing and is getting a bit out of control so I had better leave it there for now……now where is that winning lottery ticket?

I must admit I do love Stokke and our Stokke Sleepi is one of my favourite purchases. That newborn seat is a really clever I idea I thought xx

April 29, 2012 at 6:53 am (13 years ago)I had my second little boy last summer and seem to have gone mad buying all sorts of lovely bits! My husband says “I thought we would save money having the same again!” But I think as he will get so many hand me downs it is lovely to spoil him a little with other new bits. So spoil that bump! And yourself – how gorgeous is that Pink Lining bag?!! I have the Yummy Mummy one with blue butterfly prints! xx
