one thing I wish I had, was formula...even though I planned on nursing- the 3rd night I was home from the hospital, I could NOT suffer through the pain and allow DD to latch on, I was in tears, DD was crying, and DH was in tears just watching...
With it being a sunday night- about 130am- even the 24 hour grocery stores were closed- and 45 minutes away. We did have 2 24 hour gas station, convienence stores, but neither had formula...DH had to call DBIL/DSIL wake them up and go over there, and get a can of formula. Luckily her DS was 6 mo older than DD and she had some!
Even if you dont plan on needing it, it's GREAT to have a can on hand!

) A nursing pillow is really nice too. I used one called a Boppy. You can find them at Target and Wal-mart. Also baby hangers are great to have. And I love Aveeno products for babies. I, personally, prefer to use non-scented lotions and wash. A big bottle or box of Dreft detergent would be nice also.
Also a couple of little hats to keep their heads warm.
