Can't wait to reap the rewards of our first baby-related shopping last weekend - comfy tops and dresses, plus storage bins for the wardrobe I can't fit in anymore which will help clear space for all the new baby stuff to come. Here's my WIP first-time checklist, culled from various sources ( Mothercare, Parenting.com, etc.). Any recs on where to buy or borrow, do let me know!
- Infant car seat (best models recline when detached, allow the baby to rock or bounce)
- Wearable soft carrier (sling designs make nursing easier - kampung style!)
- Crib light
- Cot, mattress and bedding (IKEA?)
- Changing mat
- Extra pull out bed (for storage, convertable into a kids bed - IKEA)
- Baby sleeping bag or blanket
- Baby swing
- Diapers, diaper disposal method and diaper ointment (loads and loads of nappies!)
- Baby bathtub and tub seat
- Baby toiletries (hooded towels, baby shampoos, infant nail clippers, soft hairbrush)
- First baby clothes
- First baby toys and toy bar
- Baby listening monitor
- Feeding equipment (bottles - Nuk?, steamer)
- Stroller (for later - McLaren)
- High chair (for later - IKEA)
