I love the previous persons list! Perfect. with you ladies I'm starting again after 6 years.
The first couple months are pretty simple. U only need bottles (even if u breastfeed- someone might can help u out if u pump) diapers (not many newborn start with ones) wipes (no scent) powder and butt cream, lotion and body wash (Johnsons is best), burp rags (lots of them), clothes from 0-3months (Aug to Oct will be hot so onsies is enough), socks, pacifier(nuk make good ones), nasal aspirator, blankets, car seat with newborn headrest, crib, bouncy seat, swing, thermometer and nail clippers, maybe a stroller if u like walks, changing table if u want but not a must have. Thats about it. If u do breastfeed then u will need bras, breast pads for leaking, pump, cream for sore nipples, storage bags for pumping. Hope this helps!good luck- im starting over after almost 8yrs!
