| I've seen a lot of discussions here about shopping for the baby at IKEA and what to buy. Here's what we got, almost everything we need for the nursery corner. Luckily we were able to get it all in one go and for a surprisingly reasonable . | | Gulliver crib | | Mattresses both for the crib and one to cut into shape for our hand me down cradle | | Mattress protector | | Fitted sheets | | Malm 4 drawer chest, to use as a changing table and clothes storage | | Skubb boxes for the dresser to organize everything | | Towels, both the 0.49 guest towels, baby towels and some regular hand towels and wash cloths in a different color from ours. I'm planning on using these for burp cloths, wash cloths, changing pad protectors etc. | | Some toys, like the super cute Leka musical sheep | | Laundry bag | | Baby bath tub. I sort
of regret buying this as it is hard to store in our small bathroom. Still thinking of changing this with the collapsible Stokke Flexi Bath. | | We did not buy comforters from IKEA as their sizing is different from standard, and then we'd be stuck with IKEA bedding. We were also going to buy a wall lamp, but could not find anything we liked. |

| We just did our IKEA trip on Saturday. It was like pregnant lady headquarters there! I was kinda bummed because two pieces of furniture I wanted were out of stock (my first-choice crib and something else I can't even remember now) but we ended up with everything we needed. Then we spent allllll Saturday night building furniture while we ate pizza and watched Friends. It was a good day :D | | We got... | | Hemnes chest of drawers (doubles as change table; matches a day bed already in the room) | | Lamp and ruffled white fabric lampshade | | White vertical Kallax shelves for books/storage | | Two Algot wire basket units for his closet | | Crib (originally wanted Gansett, got Stuva and am really happy with it) and crib mattress. | | Skubb boxes galore (for Kallax unit and Hemnes drawers) | | Cute bird art for the walls | | Plus
other stuff we needed for the house - pillows and sheet sets, wine glasses, etc. |

- We bet another 50.00 the next time you go to IKEA will make going there even better. See if you qualify!,
