I need to buy some items for the baby before she/he comes and I was wondering what others spent on these items so I could know if I am getting a good deal or spending way too much. I am shopping around and haven’t purchased anything yet, but any advice and what you spent would be helpful.
nursery furniture, bedding & decor
large items like carseat, stroller, pack’n'play, swing, highchair
diaper bag, bouncy seat, playmat
bottles, diapers to start, wipes to start, soaps to start
tub, towels, washcloths
clothes, and everything else
I have a list here that a friend has helped me compile and after going online and around to stores to price things I come up with a total cost of about $3000. That seems like alot to me, but I have it to spend I just want to make sure I am not crazy. LOL
No rude answers please. I am a first time Mom and need advice.

I need to know whats average and whats excessive.
Also if my husband has been rinsing bottles out during the night and reusing them without properly washing them with soap is that really bad for my baby? And are formula fed infants supposed to have such awful smelling messy diapers?

I got the sunscreen, the hat and the stroller. My mom says no more than an hour on the beach. Any suggestions?
Also, where can I buy sunglasses for a baby? All the store I’ve been too including Babies r Us have glasses best suited for children 2 and up.
Thanks!

this includes cotton balls, laundry detergent, baby lotion or oil, baby shampoo, baby soap, a baby carrier, swing, bassinet, a crib including mattress and pad, car seat, baby bathtub, playpen, stroller, and anything i might have missed.
