Answer 5

Well.... Here goes!

Hygiene:

Shampoo, wash, and lotion - I use Johnson & Johnson on my daughter - it's the only brand I trust.

Comb/Brush

"Medicine Cabinet":

Infants Concentrated Tylenol

Mylicon - for gas

Thermometer - I keep an ear and rectal one on hand.

Vaseline - I use it where the diaper rubs up against my daughters legs - this way she's safe from chaffing. Although, vaseline has many uses.

Rubbing Alcohol - to keep the umbilical cord clean until it falls off.

Baby oil - I use the gel oil (to keep dry skin moisturized)

Baby Q-Tips

Diaper Rash Cream - I use Triple Paste/Cream for a bad rash, but Desitin regularly to prevent rash

Nail Clippers - I used an Emory board when my daughter was a newborn, I was always afraid of "getting her".

Towels and Washcloths

Nasal Aspirator - To suck the boogies. =]

Diapers/Wipes:

Before baby comes, make sure you have plenty to last for a little while, because you are not going to want to go to the store because you ran out! Trust me!

I got 3-4 packs of newborn

2 packs of size one

and 1 pack of size 2

Baby's grow in and out of sizing so quickly, you don't want to be caught with out the next size up because the previous one doesn't fit anymore!

Clothing:

One piece pajamas (6-8)

Onesies (bodysuits) (6-8)  

Socks (6-8 pairs)

Hats (2-3)

Cute outfits for “visiting”

5-6 recieving blankets - Babies love to be swaddled, but be careful not to buy too many blankets, alot of babies grow out of wanting to be swaddled and most grow right out of them. I went to Wal-Mart and bought some cloth and just sowed the edges so they wouldn't fray, and now they are used as sleeping with, or laying/playing on, and lots of other things too!

1-2 Hats - The type of hat all depends on what season it is.

Furniture:

Crib

Lamp

Buearu

Changing Table

Bassinet

Feeding:

4-5 Bottles

Formula - or Breast Pump

Pacifier - If you choose

Answer 6

Right off the bat, you need:

-a place for baby to sleep

-something for baby to eat (if breastfeeding it's good to have formula/bottles/nipples just in case)

-burp clothes

-blankets

-diapers

-comfy outfits

-washcloths

That's the immediate concerns....you won't need toys, fancy outfits, swings/seats, even a bathtub for a bit so you can get those later.
