Some things are very special for the care of a newborn baby, ignoring them may be costly for first time parents.

baby clothes

Soft, comfortable clothes that are easy to put on and take off are essential for newborns. Be sure to keep onesie, slippers and swaddle blanket. Choose clothes that are easy to clean and have breathable fabric, such as cotton. These are best for baby’s soft skin. Apart from this, baby bathtub is safe and convenient for bathing the baby. Stock up on mild shampoos and washes, soft towels and some bath toys.

car seat

Car seats not only help during travel but are also required when bringing a newborn home from the hospital. The car seat you choose must meet all safety standards and regulations. You can also ask a pediatrician about using it.

feeding supplies

Whether you’re breastfeeding or formula-feeding, bottles are essential. Keep a sterilizer, a bottle warmer and BPA free bottles at home. Apart from this, nursing pillows and breast pumps are very beneficial for lactating mothers. You may need these things to make your parenting journey easier.

crib and mattress

When it comes to sleeping, safety comes first. Get a good quality crib and a comfortable, hypoallergenic mattress. Some parents sleep with the baby for the first few months. For this you can opt for bassinet. However, the baby’s cradle should be strong and the mattress comfortable.

wipes and diapers

Your baby will need an average of ten diapers every day. This thing is most important in baby care. Choose disposable diapers or cloth diapers for an eco-friendly option. After having a baby, you must have a stock of these in your house. Don’t forget to grab baby wipes for easy and quick clean up.
