Today is close to the end of my 6th month of gestation. After 3 months, my baby will arrive to this world. I am both excited and anxious. What I need to buy to prepare for her arrival?
With this question in mind, I logged in Yahoo Answers, a community site, and posted my first question: what I need to prepare for my unborn baby?
Within few hours, I received 6 answers. They all give me very good idea. One expectant mother gave me a link from Target.com, which includes a comprehensive list of all the things needed for newborns. I think this list is very helpful. Here is the checklist：
