So, let’s start from the place where the baby will be sleeping. A comfortable crib where the baby will sleep is the perfect place to start. Preferably a wooden crib is more attractive and lighter in weight as well. Moreover, a crib mattress is also a necessity these days if you want your baby to have a good night’s sleep. Also, a carrycot is a necessity at present because there is lots of travelling going on.
Baby linens
Waterproof sheets are a must for the baby. During changing diapers, these sheets are very handy as they do not soak the water. Furthermore, in order to move the baby to different rooms of the house, there must be a mattress, pillow and blanket that can be taken with the baby anywhere. These keep the baby warm and healthy.
Baby garments
There can be a lot of shopping done in this category since the more you buy the more space you have in terms of baby’s clothing. However, some clothes should be mandatory taking into account the baby’s comfort. Any of the below garments in the quantity between 5 to 10 would be more than enough.
- Onesies
- Shirts and pants
- Innerwear
- Rompers
- Hats
- Socks
- Gloves
Baby diapering
Changing the diapers is one of the most important tasks of handling the baby. In a day it can have a frequency of up to five times. Therefore, to make this task easier, there should be some diapering essential for the baby. Starting with the small bathing cup which is needed for gathering the hot water. There must always be a couple of boxes of baby wipes as well for cleaning purposes. Apart from that, there must be a diaper cream in case of any rashes and a big bag to keep the diapers.
Baby bathing
Nowadays, doctors advise parents to bathe their baby almost daily since their birth. Therefore, bathing accessories are a must. A bathtub for the baby is essential for the comfort of the baby during the bath. Baby soap, shampoo, powder, and lotion are also mandatory because they are made of such ingredients which do not have side effects on the skin of the baby.
Baby feeders
Newborns are to be fed after every three hours that’s is why their feeding essentials are necessary for parents. Baby feeding times are not like the adults therefore the parents must be ready at every interval of feeding. For that, feeding bottles preferably of 8 ounces should be there. Moreover, nipples should also be available if the baby is crying a lot. Finally, the plastics can affect the baby therefore a sterilizer for the bottles and nipples must also be available.
