Clothing – here is no need to buy any expensive designer clothing for your baby -no-one will really notice whether or not your baby is wearing the latest brand name.

Toys – the latest and most expensive toys available are completely unnecessary.

When buying toys only buy those that will help with the development of your baby more than simply something that is new and cute.

Wills Make a will or update your old will and include the name of a guardian for your child and the trustee of your child’s inheritance.
