I'm due august 3rd, and I just started going over my list of things I will need for when my baby gets here. This isn't my first child, but a lot of my sons things didn't hold up to well in storage and its a girl this time. As far as I know I will not be having a 2nd baby shower. How much does everyone plan to spend on these things? Baby furniture, clothing, swing, bouncer, nursery items...etc... Is anyone else feeling a bit overwhelmed by all this?

    Thanks for website. Ill have to check it out. I'm going basic too. But my son was such a horrible sleeper the swing was a must that's the only place he would sleep. I'm defitnetly not taking any chances lol just a couple days ago I thought my due date would never come but after thinking of all these things I feel like I'm running out of time with such a tight budget.

    Try craigslist and if they have them in your area mom to mom sales are the best. Most of the moms just want to get rid if their used baby stuff and will sell it for cheap. Good luck!

    Warm weather means garage sales :) I got a lot of stuff for my first baby. I didn't have a lot of money I was a single mom and I got his stroller a swing some clothes...ect. moms want to get rid of there old stuff and if you show up with your big pregnant belly they know you need stuff for good deals. Moms helping moms :)
