If you are first-time parent and you are about to due then you should read this article. I purposely provide some general guidance check list on what are the most important things you should get ready before you give birth. This will help you to reduce mistakes and prevent you from spending on unnecessarily items in caring your baby later on.

 1. What items to buy?

For the first few months of your baby’s life, you can skate by with the bare essentials or go hog wild and buy the entire stock of your local baby boutique. Choose wisely depending on your budget, space availability and your life style in general.

2. Setting up baby’s nursery

Have fun when you choose furniture and decoration for your baby’s nursery. Choose something that reflects your own lifestyle.

3. Feeding Your New Baby

Decide whether you want to breast feed or bottle feed your baby. For working mothers I strongly encourage you to mix bottle feed and breast feed. For a staying home mother, my advice is to give more breasts feed to your baby. Remember, mother’s milk is still the best infant formula.

4. Diapering and Diaper Bags

Babies require lots of diaper changes, right from the start. The biggest choice here is whether you’ll use cloth diapers or disposables. Disposable diaper is of course very easy but high costs, you have to keep stocks. Cloth diaper is easy to handle but again you need a lot of cleaning. A lot of work but you save your money.

5. Car Seats

Another important area you have to look at is your baby car seat. It is required by law in many countries that you must have a baby seat in you car. Not only to comply with the law but baby car seat is indeed very useful and for your baby safety as well.

6. Strollers and Baby Carriers

You don’t want to hold your baby forever especially when he gets bigger, your arms will get tired. Strollers and baby carriers will help you to rest and at the same time keep your baby close to you.

7. Your baby entertainment

Provide some small and colorful toys for your baby to play with. This will keep him busy and cries less. But choose wisely toy which not harmful to your baby.

8. Baby Clothes

 Babies don’t need so many . fancy clothes. Just buy several special outfits for your new baby.
