What are the preparations before production?

Before every pregnant woman gives birth, we must make preparations for the birth, so that there will be no rush when giving birth. It is also worth noting that before giving birth, we must not only do a good job of prenatal preparations for pregnant women, but also in order to welcome the upcoming babies, we must also do a good job of prenatal preparations for the babies. Let's take a look at what prenatal preparations are with the editor.

Maternity

Hygiene products: sanitary napkins (it is best to buy extra-long night use ones), panty liners, and toilet paper.

Toiletries: cup, lunch box, towel, toothbrush, wash basin, footbath, slippers

Clothes for discharge: maternity hat, windproof clothes and shoes.

Underwear: 3 nursing bras (buy when you are about to give birth, and it is recommended to buy a size larger than the current size), 2 packs of disposable paper underwear (of course buy the largest size, it is very important, otherwise your family will have to wash them for you all the time).

Breast pump: It is recommended that you don’t buy a very good one, an ordinary brand will be enough.

For babies

1. Two bottles: They must have scales, one for milk and one for water. Also pay attention to the pacifier. Newborns can only use the ones with a flat hole (there is no need to buy the most expensive and best kind of baby bottle. The most economical, convenient and practical one is Adeli, which is sold everywhere).

2. Milk powder: pay attention to the time period when purchasing, and buy the one for 0 to 6 months. (Although breastfeeding is advocated, it is still important to ensure the baby's food supply before the milk comes in, so it is also important to buy it in advance.)

3. Bottle brush: Use one of good quality. Poor quality ones will break after a few days. It is recommended to use NUK bottle brush, which is of very good quality.

4. Hard-box pull-out wet wipes: used for wiping stool, it is recommended to use Johnson & Johnson in pink packaging, which contains lotion and protects baby's skin. Buy at least 2 packs, 1 pack in hard box and 1 pack in simple packaging.

5. Pull-out toilet paper: used for milk spills and wiping stools. It is recommended to choose unscented toilet paper.

6. Diapers: It is recommended to bring a pack of Huggies NB diapers.

7. Small clothes: Two sets of monk’s clothes for easy changing. A newborn baby doesn't need a lot of clothes, and the clothes you do prepare should be practical and easy to wear and wash. It is best for babies to wear pure cotton clothes because they will come into contact and rub against the baby's skin. When purchasing, you don't have to buy clothes that fit newborns, because most babies will grow out of them within a few weeks, so start by buying clothes for 3-month-old babies. Babies generally don't like to have their clothes taken off, so buy simple clothes that are easy to put on and take off.

8. Small towels and large bath towels: They must be made of pure cotton, quality is very important!

9. Bathing and showering products: Avent shampoo and shower gel

10. Diaper Cream: To give more care to your baby’s butt, we recommend Johnson’s Diaper Cream.

11. Baby lotion and oil: Use for massage after giving your baby a bath.

12. Large bathtub: It is recommended to choose a waist-shaped one, which is more convenient to use.

13. Large-headed cotton swabs: Cotton swabs have many uses. Dip them in alcohol to wipe the baby’s umbilical cord, clean the baby’s nose, and clean the baby’s outer ears, etc.

14. Baby laundry detergent/powder: Available in supermarkets, you can buy one and wash your baby's clothes every day, but the amount you use is not large and it takes a long time to use.

15. Baby stroller: This is very important for the baby and must be selected for the baby in the second trimester of pregnancy. It is not only convenient for carrying the baby when going out, but more importantly, it can also serve as the baby's crib in the first few months after the baby is born. After birth, the baby is still accustomed to the feeling of being tightly surrounded in the mother's womb. Sleeping in a stroller can make him feel more secure. When choosing a stroller, quality is key, and big brands like Goodbaby’s can satisfy this requirement. In terms of functionality, as long as it can meet the needs of full lying, half lying, sitting, etc. as the baby grows, it will be fine. The closer the production date of a product is, the more humane the updates and improvements will be, and the more comfortable the baby will be.

16. Baby soft spoon and small bowl: This can be considered the baby’s first set of tableware. Note that the front end of the spoon prepared for the baby should be soft so that the baby will not be poked when feeding. When the baby is almost one month old, it is time to start calcium supplementation. A small bowl and a small spoon will come in handy. The best way to feed calcium tablets to the baby is to put half a tablet of calcium in a small spoon, add some water, stir the calcium tablet with a toothpick, and then give it directly to the baby. This way there is no waste at all, and the baby will finish it easily.

If we do a good job of prenatal preparation, you will get twice the result with half the effort when you give birth to your baby. At the same time, the suffering of pregnant women and babies will be greatly reduced, and the family will not be in a hurry because of the arrival of the baby. Therefore, we must do a good job of prenatal preparation.
