LIST 1 : THINGS YOU REQUIRE BEFORE YOU DELIVER YOUR BABY - PART 2

Hello Reader,
So we are coming to the Part 2 of the first list. This list is Mom-to-be/New Mommy specific. And like done in Part 1, I will be first posting the items and then in the later post the explanation regarding the items to be bought.

You can start shopping for the items in this list in your 7th or 8th month. Around this time you are still enthusiastic for shopping and getting things ready. Around the end of 8th month fatigue starts building up due to the almost full grown baby bump. So there is no point in burdening yourself with these things.

ALL THE OPINIONS AND SUGGESTIONS ARE MINE AND AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE FOLLOWED BLINDLY. ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PAEDIATRICIAN OR GYNAECOLOGIST OR EXPERTS IN THIS FIELD.

So let's begin...

This list is going to be a much shorter list compared to the Part 1.

From now on ALWAYS WASH YOUR (NEW OR OLD) GARMENTS, INNERS, QUILTS, BEDCOVERS, HANDKERCHIEFS, TOWELS, ETC. BEFORE USING. YOU WILL HAVE TO FOLLOW THIS TILL THE TIME YOU ARE BREASTFEEDING YOUR BABY. YOU CAN PRE SOAK THEM IN HOT WATER FOR AT LEAST 20-30 MINUTES IN DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID. IF YOU FEEL THAT PRE SOAKING IS A HASSLE THEN AT LEAST USE ONE CAP FULL OR HALF CAP DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID (QUANTITY OF LIQUID DEPENDING UPON THE WASHING LOAD) IN YOUR WASHING CYCLE.


1) Feeding/Nursing bra
2) Feeding/Nursing Gown
3) Feeding/Nursing Dresses
4) Comfortable underwear/panty
5) Nipple pads
6) Sanitary pads
7) Diaper bag (I am including this here because this will be your bag too for a pretty long time)
8) Hand Sanitizers
9) Soft cotton handkerchiefs - 6 - 7 nos.
10) Cream or Oil for stretch marks
11) A water bottle or jar exclusively for you to keep near your bedside
12) Mosquito Bat
13) Mosquito repellent roll-on
14) Box of paper napkins
15) Wet wipes

Yes, that is it. So much shorter, right? Feel free to share your lists and opinions in the comment section below.
Happy shopping.

P. S. Will update the list as and when required and I find it necessary.
