Baby Baby Baby - what do you need?

Minibike at Mothercare !!
I'm 5 months. The baby is yet to kick or scratch. But I know she's hungry all the time. :) Meanwhile, I've been browsing the internet and aisle to search for the essential newborn items. Friends and family have been very helpful sharing tips and article. There's a few things that i'm eying:
1. Baby cots - but since dad found my old baby cots he made for me looong time ago- i guess we can skip it and just refurnish the existing cot
2. Changing Table - my husband want to design the baby cots in the 1st place- but since reason #1 - maybe he will want to design a changing table? His original idea was an attaching cot+changing.
3. Newborn needs - For such a little human, you sure do need a bigger space.
  -newborn clothes: plenty to buy from- last minute shopping pun tak apa- pinjam sama merah lah
  -diapers - i'm into cloth diaper thing- been reading ans searching. this website is plentiful of infos: cloth diapers malaysia. If you are a newbie better check the website to prepare yourself. Anyway, prefold diapers are also suitable for newborn plus its cheap. Read it at CARA MUDAH & MURAH UNTUK CLOTH DIAPER BAYI BARU LAHIR  The best choice for newborns is the Prefolds + Snappi + Diaper Cover system. 
  -baby bathing and detergents etc: i'm opting for natural product- those without the harmful chemical. But it's very expensive mind you! otherwise go au-nature like what we can read from the herb books etc. If you have sensitive skin babies (eczema) you have no other option but go natural.
 -milking accessories - breast pump - storage - bottles etc. 
4. Oh ya strollers and car seat. i like the cheap skeleton stroller where you can fold it to put in the  trunk without much hassle. Yes i'm so awed by the great designer looking thousands costing stroller too. Hussh.
5. Since i chose  natural birthing- i'm yet to attend the hypnobirthing class. Or to find a certified midwives
6.I should also should join some breastfeeding counselling course held by Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia. I mean- i've always thought that breastfeeding is a natural hunch, all mom should've known this all the while no need no classes.But i also see lots of infants grew up from cow's milk (Merah ga ga ga). So perhaps a little knowledge is better. Tapi bilakah?

I'm gaining as much info as i can to help me go through lots new things so you'll find me attaching links of article or websites
