Baby Essential Items

Baby Essential Items

Clothing
• 7 sets of long sleeves and long pants. (For sleeping at night)
• 10 sets of short sleeves and shorts. (For day usage)
• 5 Rompers for going out.
• 7 sets of Mittens and Booties/Socks.
• 3 baby hats.
• 20 handkerchiefs
If you are not washing clothes frequently then I would suggest you buy a few more sets to stand by.

Diapers
Its really personal preference when it comes to which brand of diapers to use. I used PetPet S when baby was less than 1 month old. Cause they poo after every feed, so the diaper will be change very frequently so need to purchase really high end diapers. After baby start to poo only once a day, I change to use Mamypoko for day usage and Pampers for night usage.

Nappy Cream
Mothercare sudocream is a must have. It cure diaper rash very fast.
Im using Mustela diaper cream, so far no diaper rash compared to Avent which keep giving baby diaper rash.
