Essentials for Preggy Moms & Babies

Seeing that I'll be a first time mom, I decided to do some research on the items that I'll be needing for my baby. My other preggy friends had told me to start buying the items for my baby before my seventh month cos 1. in case I have to give birth prematurely (I hope not) 2. once I am in the third trimester, I'll be more tired and "heavier" and shopping will be quite an inconvenient.

Anyway, I want to share the list of essential items that preggy moms should get:
