Things like an Exersaucer or battery operated swing chairs are expensive here and AFAIK you can not buy an Exersaucer here. I borrowed mine from a friend and I do not know what I would do without it. Also I had a swing chair which is great for the early months. For my first baby didn't buy any of these and found I was constantly holding and rocking the baby so second pregnancy first thing I bought was a swing chair. My daughter loves both.
You know you can also buy things second hand here from parents both on this site and families yahoo group

As for suppositories, I prefer them for small babies as the medicine is quick to administer and the results are faster. I do, however, prefer the teething gels from home and have quite a good stock.
