Hello there!

My husband and I are expecting our first baby this summer, and we're preparing for the big arrival. I was wondering if all you parents would let me know what you have found/are finding the best and the worst baby items. Which things were a waste of money? Which things do you find essential?

I realise that everyone's situation is different, but nonetheless I thought it might be useful and interesting to hear about your experiences.

Thanks!

Zena.
