[blparent] Items you couldn't live without

[Angela Frederick]

Hi, everybody,

Okay, so I am a huge nerd and have been trying to figure out what our 
family budget could be if we succeed in getting pregnant.  I've been 
looking at baby items and their costs and wondering what is really 
necessary and worth spending money on.

So, I would like to know from all of you who have kids:

1. What baby items do you consider a necessity or a life-saver?

and

2. What baby items do you wish you hadn't spent money on?

Thanks for the feedback!
Angela
