This is great! We are doing cloth diapers and what I did was pick out a few different covers along with some prefolds and inserts to try. Even if one particular cover doesn't work great at first, baby can grow into it or we can use it as a night-time cover, etc. I like cloth diapers because they are very customizable for your needs, more economical, more absorbent and better for baby.

I ended up with an Ergobaby Options carrier but registered for a Moby Wrap too, hehe. I also got a breast pump and some supplies, and a couple different bottles. We want the Motorola video monitor with the 2.5" screen - some friends have it and love it, and it seems to have the best reviews on Amazon. I registered for the Leachco Bath Pad as well as some nursing supplies, etc. Shoot, you're more than welcome to check out my baby registry! If you're interested I'll PM you since you need my full name.

I bet you're getting SO excited!

Just a few things - I think you are really smart to use a dresser as a changing table - those changing tables take up a fair amount of space, and the ones that are combo dressers/changing tables don't convert well (in my opinion) into post-diaper dressers. I see a lot of them for sale on craigslist. We bought a used Ethan Allen dresser of similar height/style to the Ikea one you listed, and what we did is bought some of that grip liner (like this - random site found on Google, sorry - http://housewares.hardwarestore.com/37-188-shelf-and-drawer-liners/contact-grip-liner-629429.aspx) and put it under the changing pad so that it doesn't slide on top of the dresser. Anyway, we don't have tiny rooms in our house, but the dresser thing just seemed much more practical to us.

As for the Fisher-Price bassinet, I had a traditional bassinet, a bouncy seat, and a swing. That takes up a LOT of space. Our receptionist's daughter just had a baby, and she (our receptionist) is helping out a lot. She told me one day that the same Fisher-Price thingie you listed was what she really, really wanted, and it was on sale at Target for $60 at the time. We ended up buying it for her as a gift, but when I was looking it up online, I realized that after my son was born I had seen it in an ad and wished I had it. I liked it because (1) it acts as a bassinet, eliminating the space-sucking bassinet that we had, and (2) you can have a bouncy-seat-type thing at normal height as opposed to on the floor. I know you're not supposed to do this, but I used to put my son's bouncy seat on our quite large ottoman, at least until he was big enough to wiggle around enough to make me nervous. This bassinet eliminates that issue. I also have other Fisher-Price baby products and have been more than satisfied with them, plus they aren't that expensive.

I have the Moby wrap, which I bought brand-new (and not inexpensively), and NEVER used. I guess I was just not that into baby-wearing, but now that #2 is on the way, the idea sounds much more appealing. The only thing was that it was really long and hard to figure out. Someone I know said she used to pretty much just wear it all the time, then slip her son in it whenever they got anywhere or she needed to wear him around. Honestly I'm considering buying a Baby Bjorn so that we have our hands free for our toddler.

I also used the Graco Snugride 35 infant carrier/carseat and loved it. Zero complaints! I only wish my son hadn't gotten so heavy, so quickly so that we could have used it for a longer period of time.

My Brest Friend is awesome. I had that and a Boppy and much preferred it. The only thing is that I never velcro-ed it around myself because if the baby fell asleep during/after nursing, I didn't want to wake him up with the velcro noise (which suddenly becomes deafeningly loud when the room is quiet).

I have two kids already and can only tell you what we have re-purchased vs. left out this time around.
Forget it:
diaper genie. Go for a step on lidded regular garbage can. Lots more use and you don't need anything special for it.
Changing table. The top of the dresser is fine.
Wipe warmer. Really.
Bottle warmer. If you are going to formula feed it is better to get them used to room temp water. They will still drink it.
Newborn clothes, other than some onesies. You can always buy some after birth but my kids didn't fit into themafter a few weeks.
Too many of any one kind of clothes. Get a couple snap, a couple zipper, a couple long sleeves, a couple.....whatever. My kids both hated anything covering their legs.
noise machine. You can use a clock radio for the same thing.
A special fancy diaper bag. Messenger bags ftw.

Have:
Snap in stroller instead of a travel system.
Comfy glider
Boppy
crib
Several crib sheets and matress covers
One of those lights that give out a low light for nighttime diaper changes.
Swaddle blanket
Cloth diapers. We didn't cloth diaper, but those things are great for spit up, emergency clean up, toss into the diaper bag and use for a changing pad.....

bumping for when we start to buy things....I def think we will be doing the dresser for the changing table thing OMG I'm having a baby!!!!!!!

On thing I didn't see on the list is Gowns. I absolutely loved the Gowns for my DD in her newborn phase. This made diaper changes at night so much easier than any snap / zipper contraption. She wore them regularly for the first 3 months. I plan on getting them for DS as well... they just don't have as many cute patterns for boys. I LOVE them though!

Gowns are definitely awesome! I got one as a shower gift and LOVED it - I bought some more off of Amazon in a basic pattern (white and off-white) so that they weren't so girly for my little boy. He's almost 2 now and has no idea I used to put him in them. SO much easier than regular PJs!

Ditto.

Just looking through here adding things to my registry!

Good call RBX about the sensitive skin, my skin is allergic to lavender and hubs has sensitive skin, I should start considering what type of lotion/wash we may want.

I also think most mom go way overboard and buy a bunch of useless stuff. We only get these, and it was plenty:
- sleep: crib+ matress+ 3 sheets, no fancy bedding set. 1 sleepsack , 3 normal receiving blanket for swaddling. No need for special pricey swaddling blanket. I think bassinets are waste of $$$. Plus they usually wery low, so you have to bend over to pick up.put down your baby, and your back is going to hurt big time. Travel playpen is good to have for the living room , but mainly for later use. The best place for the baby is the crib.
-changing: dresser+ changing pad on top of it. It takes care of storing clothes+ toiletries and changing thing. I think a good diaper pail is a good to have, regular trash can stinks We got the Dekor one, because he reviews said that stinks the least. It was true. 1 pack of NB diaper , with umbilical cord hole in it! Even if you plan to cloth diaper, I suggest you to go with this until the cord fells off. Wipes with case and a travel wipe case. wipe warmer do not needed.
-Toilleteries: 1 baby wash 1 cream/oil, I suggest you to stay away from Johnsons, because it has many chemicals that is associated with cancer and some other nasty stuff. Baby use very little, invest into 1 bottle of organic baby wash and cream. We used simple vaselin on the baby bump, never had a rash. Also get a baby grooming package, with thermometer nose aspirator, and nail clippers the rest is not needed. The $10 kit do just fine.
-clothing: onesies + sleepers 2-3 each in NB size, and 6-8 in 3 months size, cotton hat 1 in NB size 2 in 3months size , 1 sweater in each size, and 1 bounting bag for walking a winter baby 3 months size, 1 outside hat . A good to have is 1 pretty outfit en each size for special occasions, pictures etc.
- I didn't buy glider , but put one of cheap old arm chair into my baby room
- stroller+ infant car seat that snaps into it. If you have 2 cars , and you use both regularly, it is good to get a 2nd base for the infant car seat. Winter baby may need an infant car seat cover . Make sure you buy the one that do not go under the baby not to compromise the safety of the carseat.
- I breastfeed, and the biggest help was my BF-ig cover , which I made myself from $3 material. Otherwise keep on minimal, fancy expensive breastpump is a not needed. I bought an AVENt hand pump off ebay for $20 new unopened in wrap. It had the small handpump, 2 infant bottles, and 4 storage cup, it was more then enough for occasional pumping if I needed to go out and left the baby for DH. I got 2 nursing bra, breast fiend BF-ing pillow, and maybe 1 tube of lanolin cream. However the best advice on cracked nipple is to put breastmilk on it and let it dry , it heals it up nicely. Also most diswasher has sanitizes program, do not need to dsanitizer mashine, bottlewarmer is BS. Also do not buy breastshield, breast pad and other gadgets, there is good chance you won;t use any of them, if you end up needing it, your DH can run out for the store.
-Toy/entertainment: good mobile , and a playmat for tummy time and a $20 fisher price bouncy chair . These 3 more than enough for the first 3 months. Swing and what not is fancy luxury entertainment that is totally not needed.
-Buy a good reliable battery charger and at least 2 packs of 4 AAA, and AA rechargable batteries. Believe me that anything related to kids eats batteries like there is no tomorrow. You do not want to keep buying bucketful off batteries, not to mention is is way more environmental friendly to use rechargables.
-small nigh light, and depending on house moisture level, if it is dry get a water vaporizser for your kids room. If the air is not that dry kids sleep better. Having a baby that sleeps through the night at 6 weeks old worth everything!
- sling or carrier. It is a tough call, because it is depends on personal preference and depends on your baby and on your body size/shape. I bought the expensive Ergo and I couldn't use it until the baby was big like 9 months and could use the back carry position. I had 36J cup BF-ing boobs and my boobs squeezed my baby in the front. Because of this, none of the carriers could have worked, but the $20 poach sling did.
-baby monitor if you have a 2 story house. We bought one, but barely used it as we live in a bungalow. If the door open, which always is , I can hear the baby breathing anywhere in the house. It is actually useful later at the summer, when you may let your bigger( 6+ month) baby nap outside in a travel playpen.
