Congratulations on the birth of your newborn! Whether you’re an experienced parent or an expectant first-timer, there are some things that you need to know. When it comes to your newborn’s health and well-being, you need to be prepared. This list of 6 must-have products/categories of products, will help your family get started on the right foot, ensuring that everyone is happy and healthy throughout those precious early years.
Comfort Essentials
You’ll want to make sure your baby is cozy and comfortable. Blankets are an easy way to keep your baby warm and feel loved. Plus, most newborns find swaddling comforting! Essentials like Star and Daisy’s premium Cotton Blankets come in various colors, making them easy to match any nursery. Babies have sensitive skin, so choose organic cotton with no added dyes or fragrances.
Soothie Pacifier
Babies are unable to soothe themselves. If you have an infant that won’t stop crying, consider introducing a pacifier. In addition, pacifiers can help ease hunger pains by providing a substitute breast to suck on.
Adjustable no pressure swing seat
Babies love to swing. They are always so happy when they are in a swinging mood. Infants love to be in motion, but it can sometimes become a problem when they want to sleep, and they refuse to do so because they are too excited. You can help solve that by having an adjustable, no, pressure swing seat. With one of these swing seats, you will be able to have your baby close by without giving them any chance of getting hurt or falling off.
Baby carrier
Babies enjoy being close to their parents. They also love sleeping, which they do best while being carried. In many ways, a baby carrier is a sort of like a human pacifier; it keeps babies happy and gives you hands free to perform tasks around them like preparing meals or changing diapers. We recommend one that supports both front and back carrying positions because they are the most versatile. Be sure to read through reviews and buyer’s guides before deciding which model is suitable for you and your little one.
Feeding Bottle
Babies can’t speak and tell you they’re hungry, but they can use their facial expressions to let you know they want food. Babies typically eat anywhere between six and eight times in 24 hours during their first few months. So, when it comes time to feed your baby, you have two options: breastfeed or bottle-feed. While breastfeeding is certainly more natural and beneficial for both mother and child, many women cannot breastfeed due to health reasons or choose not to. If that’s your situation, don’t worry; look at these fantastic bottles designed specifically for babies.
Nappies
Nothing compares with getting up in the middle of the night to take care of a crying baby to make you remember that your sleep is essential. When choosing diapers for first-time parents, there are several things to keep in mind. First, you’ll want to consider which brand you want and how much absorbency they will provide. Remember: they grow fast, and an average newborn changes its nappy ten times or more per day within the first few weeks of life. So choose the right set of nappies wisely.
Final Words
There can be multiple products that you would need when a newly born baby comes to your house. But the most important factor would be how efficient your child’s sleeping and eating habits are. Babies need lots of sleep, and you’ll probably want to take yours alongside your newborn for at least some of those first few weeks. Also, try to invest in one or two quality bassinets, cribs, or both that can last through toddlerhood, so you don’t have to buy a new bed every time your baby outgrows their current one.
