Anyone else already making an inventory of what you'll need. - Page 2 - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

this is number 4....the list is growing each day. But if it is a boy we have just about everything for clothes, but my girls have just trashed things so if a girl after size 18m I am going to need to start looking for deals. My single stroller bit it, so that needs to be replaced. I use it a lot for being in the yard and walking the older kids to the bus. Just need to replace a few things diaper wise and since all my babies were winter babies I have no summer clothes. But being thrifty I took most of my maturity pants and had them chopped into bermuda shorts or capri's....now all I need is a couple dresses and t-shirts. And new nursing bra's.
I sew, so I am making new wipes....and the bedding.

I have been making lists already too! This is baby # 5 for us, but our "babies" are 7 so we are starting over when it comes to baby stuff! I have already got a few things but we are waiting for the "big" items until we know what we are having. I'm pretty sure it's a girl though, so I've bought a few "girly" outfits.

I scored a great deal on a breastpump on Craigslist too, so I've been cruising that site for more deals.

Like OP, we had a recent loss, so I already had a programmed -spreadsheet- of items on hand, needed, wanted (but we are geeks, so there ya go).

I do understand the "some things belong to previous baby" feeling

so, we made a baby box for her (as I do for all of my dc, usually when things are outgrown) to keep her things in (& took them off the spreadsheet).

Wow, I feel way behind in preparing already! We have more shopping, sewing, and knitting planned for after we know gender, tho.

I have a list going now with my 3rd baby but the main items on it are cloth diapers since I didn't CD my other two. I also added a boba 3G carrier to the list as my splurge item.
