Pregnancy is the most wonderful experience for every woman.
It is just beyond your thinking. For every woman, their child is special. She
wants to give her love, care, and protection as well. Babies are very soft and
their skin is very sensitive, so we should take care with an open mind. We
should check all the things like sleeping, bathing, diapering. Actually, there
are only a few things requires for a baby i.e. baby sleep place, blanket, baby
clothes, diapers, baby seat, milk.
Baby’s need is very straightforward; it doesn’t mean that
you shouldn’t aware of this. There are a lot of products in the market for a
simple need. You should know every detail and price of every product. From
which, at least you have the best thing for your baby. For example, there are
lots of moisturizers, soaps, the powder is available in the market from a
different company. For your baby’s you chose the best. From my personal
experience, I used DOVE soap and MOTHER -CARE moisture for my little angel. I
have shortlisted some items which are necessary when your baby has arrived.
It is not easy to understand which items are truly essential
for your baby and what are the things which we should ignore. The baby
shouldn’t require any branded or expensive clothes. They just need comfort, which
mother should provide. The reality is that the baby essential is not exactly
baby essential. Many times ago, people are living without diapers, pumps, and
wipes. On the other hand, it’s 21 Centuries, at the present time, it is
impossible to go for outing with your baby without a diaper, wipes, car seat.
Here we listed the things that you actually needed, at the
time when your baby arrived.
Baby Clothes
As you know that, at the time of birth the baby is too tiny.
And the skin of the baby is very soft and sensitive. So at the first time, you
should know that whatever, you buy clothes for your baby, it should be COTTON.
The fabric is 100% cotton, from which your baby is not irritated with the
clothes and it is easy to wear. In baby clothes you simply needed these items,
which we have mentioned below:

- 6–7 sleepwear
- 6–7 pair of pajamas’
- 2 pair of baby mittens (because to keep the baby protect
from scratch)

In the winters you extra need:

- 6-7 undershirts (baby vans… which are wearing under the baby clothes)
- 3-4 cardigans (front-opened….. because it’s easy to wear)

Baby Bedding
From my personal experience, I would like to say that, let
your newborn baby sleep with yours, for a couple of years. For that, you should
plan the sleeping area of your baby. But if you decided to co-sleep, then it is
necessary to keep the baby area clean and safe. These are the baby items which
are necessary at the time of baby sleeping or you can say that baby bedding.
