Stock up on diapers now, and don't forget the wipes. You'll also need some onesies, some sleepers, socks, and some receiving blankets. Don't worry too much about all the other stuff. Honestly, you really won't need a lot of the products that most first time moms buy. I will say that a swing is a great investment.
Also, don't get one of those big bulky diaper bags. They are such a hassle!!!! The best thing to do is to get either a backpack or a backpack style diaper bag. Other wise you'll constantly be fighting with it to keep it on your shoulder. You'll be carrying enough once the baby's born, so save yourself some trouble and just stash everything you need in a cute backpack that goes over both shoulders.

I love Babies R Us and Walmart. Walmart has great affordable clothes, your baby will probably only wear each outfit a few times, so you don't want to spend a lot on every outfit, just the special ones, which you can get those at Babies R Us. They also have EVERYTHING else you need from baby proofing your home, to diapers and formula. Buy a case of newborn diapers at Babies R US, their brand. You go through so many diapers, they are only about $10 and you change them so often that you don't need to worry about leaks yet. Also, the best invention by far is the Floppy Seat, it goes over high chairs and carriages so when your baby gets a little bigger and you go out you don't have to worry about those dirty high chairs or your child eating the handle at the grocery store, if your baby chews the strap, it is her strap to chew!

Get as much rest as you can before baby comes! Have an agreement with your significant other as to responsibilities for baby and the household. Have lots of extra bedding, onesies, etc. on hand and conveniently located, so you can clean up and get everyone back to bed quickly in case of accidents. Always keep a bag with extra baby clothes, blanket, diapers, wipes, bottle, etc. in the car(s) so you are prepared for unexpectedly long outings. Don't be afraid to tell people not to come over if you don't want company during those first few weeks - you will all need time to adjust. Don't be afraid to ask for help with anything you need - it is okay to not do it all yourself! Sleep when baby sleeps - you will be glad you did. Take lots of photos - they change so fast! Write things in a baby book right away - don't count on remembering specifics later. Don't buy too much of anything in one size - baby will grow out of it quickly! Take time to enjoy every moment... good luck!
