What you really need for your baby
What you really need for your baby
Having a baby can be an expensive time, especially if you're living on a budget.
It's good to differentiate between what you will need and what you would like. It's always good practice to ask yourself what you really need for your baby and don’t be tempted to buy items you will probably never use or need.
Try to stick to essential items like clothes, baby formula, bottles, sterilising equipment (if bottle feeding), and nappies.
