What should you prepare for when your baby is born?

Many parents don't know what to prepare for their newborn babies, because they are first-time parents and they learn a lot on the spot. They need to learn some nursing and common sense. Many parents read some parenting books when their children are about to be born, which is helpful for their children's development. There are many things to prepare for newborn babies. So what should be prepared for the baby when it is just born?

I'll give you some suggestions, but you don't have to buy some things, it's best to borrow them.

Checklist for mothers to prepare before the baby is born

1. Tableware:

Bottle (AVENT "PIGEON" NUK Yellow Duck): 2 pieces - 1 large (240ml), 1 small (150ml), microwave-safe, wide-mouthed glass, easy to clean. (If exclusively breastfed, no bottle is needed within 4 months)

My experience: I bought an Anlene breast pump with two bottles, and also prepared a medium-sized bottle from NUK, which can last up to 3 months.

Pacifier (5 pieces): small size, cross-shaped opening (use yellow rubber for the first month after birth, then change to white silicone).

My experience: If you are determined to breastfeed, you don’t need to buy too many pacifiers. A pacifier with two bottles, one large and one small, is enough. I also bought a small NUK pacifier made of white silicone for more than 13 yuan because the yellow one could only be used for a short time.

Bottle brush (1 piece)

My experience: It is a must-have. I bought the one from Aideli (about 15 yuan). Some people recommend the one from Hualin Baby or Pigeon, which are about 25 yuan.

Sterilizer (1): large size (can be replaced by a sterilizer or microwave). ~

My experience: I am not sure about using a sterilizing cabinet, and a microwave oven requires additional utensils. I use an old steel pot, but I think it is more convenient to use a special microwave oven for sterilization. I have not tried it.

Stainless steel pot (1): small size, for cooking for the baby.

My experience: There is no need to add complementary food within four months, so I didn’t buy any.

Bottle insulation bag (1 piece): used to keep the bottle warm when going out.

My experience: I didn’t buy it because it’s not necessary for breastfeeding and my child usually doesn’t go out for long periods of time when he’s young.

Milk warmer (1 piece): double barrel.

Note: If you don't use a milk warmer, use water at about 40 degrees to heat the milk. Do not use a microwave or boiling water to avoid destroying the nutrients.

My experience: It is not necessary for breastfeeding.

Baby bowl and spoon (1 set): for use when the baby is older.

My experience: newborn babies also need it. The baby used it when taking medicine and drinking water in the hospital. Spoons used by babies generally do not spill water easily, but spoons used by adults do. This thing is quite useful.

In addition, if you are breastfeeding, a breast pump is a very useful thing. Not only can it save the pain of hand squeezing when the milk is just starting to fill, but it also makes it more convenient for the mother to go out or work in the future. As for the brand of breast pump, mothers unanimously say that Anlene is the best, and some even call it the savior of breastfeeding.

2. Bathware:

Bathtub: 1

My experience: A must.

Washbasin: 2

My experience: It is necessary, mainly for washing clothes and washing buttocks. I use cotton balls to wash her face. She will blink nervously if I use a towel. <

Bath tape 1 or use a natural sponge

My experience: It is better to buy a gauze bath towel if you have a mask at home that has been taken apart, as it is more absorbent. Large towel

2. For body wiping

My experience: I bought three bath towels at once. In addition to using them to wipe the body, they can also be used as blankets. When feeding the baby sideways, they can also be placed behind the baby to save her the trouble.

Small towel 10 for washing buttocks (70×35cm) "for wiping mouth (20*15), gauze towel is very good. sM;Qe

My experience: buy more gauze towels and fewer towels. I bought nine gauze pieces and three towels. I use the mask sent by home to wash my butt. It is more convenient and absorbs more water than the ones I buy. You should buy good quality gauze towels, but you don't need to buy too many. The cheap ones will fray after a few washes.

If your due date is approaching, you must prepare these things in advance, because the due date of a pregnant woman is not necessarily on time. It may be early, but it may also be delayed. So the child will get better care after you prepare them first. After preparing these things for the child, you will not be in a hurry to take the wrong things when your due date comes.
