New Parents – Check out This List of Must-Haves for That New Baby
Note: I do not have young children in my house. We rent the space from our cat who rules his domain.
Yet if you are a newly crowned parent there are some useful items that are essential to make life for you and your baby more comfortable.
Keep in mind this is from a survey and you may have different needs for your child.
1. A baby gate for the stairs
2. A baby monitor
3. An electric steamer to sterilize bottles, or one you put in the microwave
4. A good diaper bag
5. A baby sleeping bag, which is basically just a cloth bag with armholes
6. A digital ear thermometer
7. A baby bouncer, or a baby rocking chair
8. A baby-changing table that you can store stuff in
9. A manual breast pump
10. A mobile for above their crib
Oh and the survey also asked for things that are a waste of money, and a baby bouncer for the doorway was voted least useful.
I'm sure you have you own list. What's different from what you see here?
