Congratulations on the birth of your newborn! Such a blessing!
Chances are your baby will be going on it's first official outing any moment now. This also means you get to finally use that beautiful baby bag you've kept all this while! The following are must-haves for the your baby bag experience:
1) Diapers
2) Wipes
3) Hand sanitiser
4) Blankets
5) Bibs
6) Extra clothes
7) Diaper rash cream
8) A toy/rattle
9) Baby food/feeding bottles
10) Breast pads.
You can't go wrong with any of these. You would need one of these at sometime during your trip. Note- the items in a baby bag are not limited to the ones listed above, you can add what you feel you absolutely need.
Mums, the baby bag experience is not just for baby alone but for you as well. These are your must-haves:
1) Cellphone
2) Torchlight
3) Snack
4) Wallet
5) Keys
Now for mums that are yet to get their baby bags and are not sure what to look out for, the following tips are sure to help:
1) Buy a big baby bag. You want a well-stocked bag. As many as 6 diapers per trip will not hurt anyone. Chances are you will not use them all but at least you will have more than enough as well as space for them.
2) Buy a baby bag from a brand that is known for quality. You want a bag that is durable and strong. For instance, I used the same baby bag for my two kids because of its high quality and this saved me money!
3) Buy a baby bag that comes with a disposable bag for soiled diapers and wipes. Also, buy one with a changing pad to use for when your baby needs to change.
4) Buy a baby bag with a lot of compartments, zippers and bottle holders. This type of bag will make it easy to find what you need and quickly too.
5) Buy a baby bag that has holders for you Mum as well. There are bags that have cellphone, key holders. So, they don't get lost amongst baby's things.
Remember Mums, the key to having the ultimate baby bag experience is to have a bag that is both functional and practical.
Have fun!
