I second this! The only thing I would suggest beyond diapers and a car seat is a sling. It made my life so much easier. For a while my son (baby #2) would NOT sleep unless he was being held. So, I strapped him to me and worked while he slept. I realized how different my life has become since baby #1. The house revolved around her. Now I know how to fit my children into the rhythm of the house. I realized this when I was making homemade tortillas with a 5 month old sleeping on my chest...
Oh, and cloth diapers will save you SO much money!! Just don't buy the ones at Wal-Mart, they don't work. Go to wildflowerdiapers.com and get some good ones. They are pricey, but they will last you a lifetime!
