Consumables to prep?

Hi am planning to purchase the consumables I’d need when the baby arrives. Other than the obvious diapers, I can think of cotton balls, cotton buds, diaper rash cream, ruyi oil, disposable waterproof pads. Anything else to get? Also, for the cotton balls, are the generic ones from guardian etc ok?
