what to buy for a newborn baby?

doberman_l

what are the basic things you need to have for the beggining of a babys life?
such as diapers, etc?
please help

Answer
Bath/Grooming:
-Diapers
-Wipes
-Desitin, or any other rash cream or baby powder
-wash cloths
-hooded towels
-Baby wash
-Baby bath tub

Clothing:
-Lots of onesies and sleepers
-Receiving blankets for swaddling
-socks
-sun hat
-Mittens to prevent scratching
-Baby laundry detergent (use for the first year)
-Bibs and burp cloths

-If you are not nursing, a couple cans of formula/bottles/bottle brush with nipple cleaner
-Crib/waterproof pads/bedding

-Lots of binkies(if you are using them), nail clippers, bulb syringe for suctioning mucous, baby thermometer (forehead one works best), infant medication in case of fever

-Infant car seat and stroller

-A monitor is nice to have. We got one that detects if baby is breathing and alerts if breathing stops, but to be honest we never turned the motion sensor on. The few times I did the alarm went off right away.

Other things that are not necessities but great to have are:
-boppy
-infant swing (great for a place for baby to calm down or nap)
-baby backpack (slings were recalled for strangulation)
-bouncer/vibrating chair
-bumbo (good for learning to sit and for feeding time w/"play tray")
-rattles and toys
-mirror for in the car so you can see baby
-diaper bag
-sleep wedge (this is good for making baby feel cozy and so he/she stays on back)

A lot of things like the swing, bouncer, etc. can be bought at second hand baby stores. Most things are gently used and some are even brand new for so much cheaper!

Baby Registry Help PLEASE?

Torie

I am starting my registry for my first baby and I have registered at Target and Babies R Us and I have a few questions. First, should I put the same items on both registries? Next, I am having a rather large baby shower (50 guests) because we both have large families so I want to put enough items on my list but I'm not sure if I should ask for things that baby will need months after she is born like a potty chair, teethers, stuffed animals, etc. I feel like I should just register for the really important stuff that I will need for when the baby first comes home and I can slowly buy that kind of stuff later down the line as I need it. I'm going off the check list babies r us gave, but I am only like half way done and already have like 70 things on my list! Also, I heard that a lot of people don't even buy things off your registry and just buy whatever they feel you need, and in that case I don't know why I'm wasting my time doing research trying to find out what is the best, trying to get things that will match the nursery, and how much of what I need if they aren't even gonna look at it! Sorry if I seem edgy I have just been working on this for a few days now off and on and I'm getting very frustrated.

Answer
First of do you know what you are having?
If you don't then make a long list of neutral baby clothes for the summer that's coming up. Also make sure you ask for doubles or more of everything, and get many of clothing items in larger sizes. Make sure just in case to get a few Preemie baby clothes just in case.

Also I would also like to recommend both http://www.diapers.com/ , and http://www.babyearth.com/ . For registry. I don't like the Target selection, and what ever these sites don't have Babies R Us might have extras or back ups.

Also here is a list I came up with, with a few helpful item idea's.

What "baby gear" did you pass up?

weirdiscom

What typical baby gear did you choose not to buy? Like, what things did everyone tell you that you HAVE to get, but you didn't get? For example, has anyone gotten along without:

1. bouncy seat
2. stroller
3. crib
4. highchair
5. baby backpack/sling for carrying baby

These are just examples of typical baby gear. I'm just wondering if anyone was told that they HAVE to get something like this and chose not to/couldn't afford it and so got along without it.

Obviously, it's illegal to go without a carseat....

Answer
You don't NEED a bouncy seat, and if you are worried about space you could switch a high chair out for a space saver.
I've never used a sling. I also went without the Diaper Genie.

what to buy for my baby?

natalia m

This is my first child and i have 4 months to go. and i dont know what to buy and where to start please help me.

Answer
Two absolute NECESSITIES, from my experience with my six babies:

*Start with a NEW carseat-- don't accept a used one unless you can be 100% sure of its past; that it's never been in an accident of any sort (even fender benders), never been dropped, etc. Also, carseats expire after about 5-6 years (read each seat's manual to check), after which time the harness may not be reliable, especially after years of drool/spitup/juice spills/etc. weakening the fibers. The plastics in the frame can also break down, have structural weaknesses not visible to the eye, etc. If the seat has been stored in a shed or garage, with large variations in heat and cold, dryness and dampness, it could be even more unreliable. So please, if there's any way you can afford it, buy a NEW carseat, and check the manufacture date on the box and seat itself for a recent one, so you don't waste money on a carseat that's been sitting on the shelf already for 2 years. For more info, go to http://www.car-seat.org . This a great website for car safety info and suggestions on buying the right carseat for your needs. :)

*a good, comfortable baby carrier, such as a sling-style carrier, mei-tai, or wrap-style:

http://www.carryingaway.com.au/Default.asp?Redirected=Y

(A website with lots of info on different style carriers, it can help you figure out which one fits your needs best.) Wearning your baby during the early months is a great way to meet baby's needs for closeness & frequent nursing, while enhancing bonding and allowing mom the freedom to accomplish more than just baby care. :) A good carrier, IMO, is THE essestial piece of baby equipment, because you are going to spend an unbelievable amount of time over the next two years with a baby in your arms! ;)

After that, the necessities are pretty simple:

*diapers, either cloth or disposable, or both if you want to give both a try; wipes, either commercial ones, or plain soft cloths you can wet with plain water and/or a homemade gentle cleansing solution (search online for "homemade wipes solution" if interested)

*a foam pad or mesh "bouncy chair-like" seat for tub baths (infant baths are pretty much useless IME)

*clothes appropriate for the season; snap-crotch tees (onesie style), light socks, sweater, lightweight pants outfits, shorts or dresses, sun hat, diaper/swimsuit if you plan on swimming/water play, caps for indoors in A/C, etc. You don't need nearly as much as the books say-- maybe 5-6 onesies, 6-8 daytime outfits, 4-6 pj's, etc. Do buy lots of socks though because they seem to disappear easily.... ??

*burp cloths, which can be as simple as you like (plain white diapers) or as fancy, but anything absorbent will do.

*lightweight blanket to cover the carseat and offer shade from the sun, while in the car, or walking through parking lots, etc.

*about 4-6 receiving blankets for swaddling during the newborn stage

*baby nail clippers-- they are much safer & gentler on soft baby nails than adult clippers

*bulb syringe (nose sucker)-- the hospital will probably give you the one they use on your baby in the hospital, so don't go buy one until you're sure you need it.

*a sturdy bag to use as a diaper bag, whether it's specialized for babies and diapers, or simply a great bag that will hold up to a lot of abuse and wear & tear. My all-time favorite was a cheap $10 black leather backpack I picked up at Walgreen's on sale. It had a huge main compartment for diapers, wipes, & change of clothes, and several smaller pockets & pouches for the other baby care items I always kept on-hand.

Almost everything else can wait until after baby arrives, and you settle in and see what you really need, what you'll actually use, and then cross of the list all of those extra non-essentials that the rest of the world seems to be unable to live or raise a baby without, such as a crib, bassinett, playpen, swing, bouncy/vibrating/musical seat, stroller....

Our crib became obsolete when we decided early on that the baby would sleep in bed with us. A bassinett was useful occasionally to have someplace moveable to put the baby for naps, and could move it room to room, but I can't say whether we used it enough to make it worth the $$. Same with swings, playpens, baby seats, etc. They came in handy sometimes, especially with the babies who seemed to be more fussy than others (you can't hold them 24/7 after all), but they definitely were NOT something I would worry about spending money on *before* baby arrives. Once baby is here, you can get to know him/her, see what their personality is like, how high the baby's needs are for holding & comfort, etc. Then you can decide which of these accessories you really need. Maybe even borrow one from someone else to try out first before wasting $$ on something the baby doesn't even like.

I'm pretty much a minimalist; I don't believe in a lot of the bells & whistles that are on the market for babies these days, although some of them have their place and can come in handy. I would rather give my babies human contact & interaction, to stimulate them myself rather than have mobiles and blinky-light noisemakers do it instead.

Please also consider breastfeeding; not only will it save you tons of $$ on bottle paraphernalia, not to mention the formula itself, but I'm sure you already know that it is the healthiest thing for both you & baby as well. :) If you are interested, you should know that the best way to ensure that breastfeeding goes well is to educate yourself as much as possible before the birth, and to get a support system in place ahead of time so you can feel comfortable calling someone for help/support once your baby arrives. It's a lot easier to call someone you've met & have gotten to know to ask your nursing questions, than to decide to pick up the phone and call a complete stranger once things have *really* gotten bad. La Leche League meetings offer a wonderful opportunity for both-- information/education *plus* a support system. You can locate a LLL group/leader near you by either calling 1-800-LA LECHE, or checking their website here:

Congratulations and best of luck! I hope this has been helpful to you!

In years past what can you bring into the National Memorial Day celebration in Washington DC?

on Baby Hire Equipment-Hire Hiking Backpack/Baby Carrier

I'm planning a trip to the concert and wanted to know what I could bring? Can you pack a picnic, a chair, wine, blanket, food, etc.

Answer
Memorial Day regs are a bit looser than some other celebration's rules. You probably can't bring a cooler, though, nor bottled water. You can bring a blanket and a folding chair. No wine or other alcohol. There are street vendors around the perimeter that will sell drinks in paper cups and food items. Some are quite tasty.

Leave the backpack at home, too. During the July 4th celebration, even baby strollers were forbidden. You may be "wanded" and you may have to go through a metal detector. It is usually on a case-by-case basis. Don't bring an umbrella, but do use sunscreen.

My suggestion is to bring enough cash to cover food and drink, a blanket and a lightweight aluminum folding chair. And plenty of patience. The lines at the portable toilets can stretch for a half-mile or more.

Is it hard to take Babies/Toddlers to Disneyworld? Any tips on waiting in lines and how to make it?

Holly

Were taking our 6 month old,almost 2 year old and 3 older girls to DisneyWorld. Im nervous we wont have any fun and it will be Im trying to decide on how to wait in lines with them,should I bring a backpack carrier they sit in and a stroller or one of the other? Can you wait in line with a carrier on? Tips please or should I postpone it. Thanks

Answer
Every ride (just about) you can't have a stroller, they have stroller parking close to each ride. Every ride has a height restriction, some may allow infants while others may not. One of the best thing I learned is the "baby pass". What it is, you ask a Disney cast member standing at the front of the line for a Baby Pass, the first part of your family goes into the 'normal' line of the ride - while the other person waits with the baby. When they get done riding the ride, you can use the baby pass which is good for 3 people and helps you skip the normal line! There are "family" restrooms everywhere and we take our whole family in there if you need to change the babies diaper, a feeding etc. They also have at the front of every park (if you're close to that) a nursing station, with high chairs, cribs, tv's for the kids, snacks for purchase, gliders for breast feeding or bottle feeding your baby, as well as a microwave. It's always very quiet and a great place to get 'away' if you need a little break for a bit.

As for the backpack carrier, you can use it while standing in any line - but for the ride, they will usually ask you to hold the infant in your lap for safety.

Just remember, Florida is hot and lines can be long and both kids and adults can get very cranky! Just try to have a great time and don't worry if the kids get a little fussy here and there! B/c Disney is A LOT of fun and your kids are going to have the time of their lives! :)

Good luck!!
