The appearance in the family of a new person always brings great joy. Parents do not yet know what their baby will look like when he grows up, who he will become, but they already love him infinitely and are ready to make some sacrifices. Together with strong positive emotions, the baby brings home chores. He needs constant care, and for this he will have to buy a lot and provide for everything.
The list of things for a newborn in the summer or winter, or at any other time of the year is quite extensive. Someone prefers to think over everything in advance, while others, due to superstition and other circumstances, postpone everything until the moment of birth.
What is needed in the hospital
The list of things for newborns can be started with those things that you will need to take with you to the hospital.
- Diapers. You will need the smallest size. Ask in advance which is better. You may have friends or relatives with young children. They will definitely know what is best to buy.
- Two vests. One is cotton, the other is flannel.
- Two bonnets. One thin, the other warm in case of cool weather.
- The list of things for the newborn in the summer should include at least two diapers. Both must be sewn from natural fabrics. It will be useful to capture a warmer diaper.
- Smart corner. He is needed, as a rule, only at discharge.
- Bike blanket.
- Duvet cover.
- Ribbon for dressing the elegant corner.
Homewear
You should not buy a lot of things, especially for the future. Each baby grows in its own way, and you always have time to buy him clothes. The list of things for a newborn in the summer is not very large. Remember that the air temperature at this time is quite high, and you do not have to wrap the baby. In extreme heat, the baby can be kept simply in diapers, and sometimes even without them. So, what to buy for a newborn:
- jumpsuit and sleeveless romper, with buttons between the legs;
- the same, only with sleeves;
- chintz bonnet, warmer cap without ties;
- calico and bike diapers;
- vests: bikes and chintz. Buy immediately on the first and second growth.
All these items must be in triplicate. More for the first time you are unlikely to need.
Children's furniture and other things
It’s better to buy these items or at least look after them in advance. You will definitely need:
- cot with drawer, with adjustable height mattress, swinging. Must be present silicone lining on the sides;
- mattress;
- a set of bed linen in the crib: pillow with pillowcase, blanket with a duvet cover, sheet, sides;
- changing table or chest of drawers with a mattress;
- children's bath;
- stand in the bath for the child;
- mitt for washing the baby;
- diaper packaging;
- bottles for feeding and watering;
- hygienic and medical preparations.
For walks
The list of things for a newborn in the summer should be supplemented with items that will definitely be needed on the street. These include a pram. Please note that the kit includes summer and winter options, a mosquito net, a boot cover. It is best if there is a removable cradle in the stroller, which can be used as a child seat in the car.
