Are you going to give birth soon and you don't really know what to put in your baby's suitcase? Here are 10 things to remember to ensure optimal comfort and safety for your newborn!
A little hat
Most hospitals put baby hats on to keep their heads warm, but you can also bring a few of your own for the stay and leaving the hospital.
Diapers and wipes
Generally, hospitals do not provide diapers. You will therefore need to remember to have enough nappies for the duration of your stay as well as a packet of wipes to wash the baby's bottom.
Pajamas
During the first days of baby's life, the garment that will be used the most is pajamas. We suggest you bring some. You will be surprised how dirty such a small being can get!
Mom's crush for life
Infants do not always appreciate changing clothes and we want to prevent them from catching cold. With its two-way zip, baby pajamasby DIM will allow you to change baby more quickly and moreeasily. In addition, its protective lining under the zip is never in direct contact with baby's skin, which will protect his sensitive little skin.
A Blanket
The blanket will be practical for warming baby, but also for swaddling him so that he feels reassured and prevents him from hurting himself by scratching his face with his little fingernails.
A pacifier
If you have decided to offer a pacifier, we suggest that you bring more than one: they are easily lost and you will have spares if one falls out and you cannot wash it quickly.
Mudflaps
They will be very useful for protecting baby's clothes against spit-up.
Stockings and mittens
Many newborn pajamas now have cuffed cuffs and ankle cuffs for use as stockings and mittens like DIM baby pajamas. If yours doesn't have one, don't forget to bring a few pairs of socks and mittens to warm baby's feet and hands during his hospital stay.
A starter set
To make him the most beautiful baby in the world when he leaves the hospital and when he arrives at home where the whole family is impatiently waiting for you to officially welcome him, bring a nice reserved pajamas when he leaves the hospital and which you can keep as a souvenir!
Warm clothes
If you give birth during the cold season, don't forget to get a baby nest or acover specially designed to keep baby warm when he leaves the hospital!
A baby seat for the car
To take baby home, you will need an infant car seat – which must be installed securely.
