i'd also be careful on stockpiling bottles and dummies. before my first was born we bought about 15 bottles, the steam steriliser, dummies etc..........
she wouldn't touch a dummy and breastfed for 21 months, so had no need for bottles ever. my second one has gone exactly the same route, so all these bottles etc have gone to waste!!
i have also found a baby monitor invaluable... our house seems to hide sounds well, so when i am downstairs i can't hear him upstairs... especially if the telly is on. use the monitor all the time!!
