Your life will never be the same again. When your newborn baby enters the world, you’re both reliant on each to succeed in living a fulfilled happy life. A baby is fragile and needs constant care, however, pregnancy and giving birth can take a lot of out of you. After a couple of days in the hospital, you’ll start going through some health checks, along with the baby, before you’re given the all-clear to go home. This is a crucial time in the baby’s life because they’re leaving the safety, expertise, and comfort of doctors, nurses, and surgeons. You will take on so much responsibility and the first year will be stressful but extremely enjoyable. Transitioning from hospital to home needs thorough preparation so your baby is comfortable and you need not worry of the basics not being there for him or her.

Bedside crib

 

Before you have even go to the hospital in labour, you need to prepare for bringing the baby home. So that you can keep an eye on your little one, a bedside crib in your bedroom allows you to monitor your baby’s health during the night. Should your baby feel alone and worried, they can start crying during the night, but with you being in close proximity, you can abate their fears and console them. Some cribs are flat with a cotton cushioning, others are made from wool and have raised edges. Some have the ability to swing and rock the baby to sleep, and others are traditional and have a steady base which allows the baby to kick and move around with destabilising.

 

Baby clothes

This is kind of an experimental phase because baby skin is really sensitive. Therefore, not every fabric and material is going to be comfortable and may even cause skin rashes. It’s best to avoid man-made materials like synthetic fibres because harsh industrial chemicals are often used to combine the threads. However wool is sometimes wiry and itchy if not properly manufactured. The best bet for your baby clothes is to be made out of cotton. Cotton is smoother than wool and less irritating than polyester. Whether you’re buying socks, shoes, hats or baby onesies, cotton can stretch as your baby does. It’s also great to regulating body temperature, because a thin layer of cotton, is thick enough to keep your baby warm, but not as dense as wool, so it also keeps the baby from overheating.
