A friend insisted we go baby shopping today. I must say that shopping with someone who's given birth before is so much more fun than going on my own. Lots of advice and tips were given out while we looked for essentials. Here's what I ended up with:
1. Bottle warmer. Great for night feeds when you're too tired to mix in the formula with hot and/or cold water. "Just keep some water in the bottle, make sure it's warm, add in the formula, shake it and your baby's ready to go. It's worth the investment because you can use it until they're two or so."
2. Pacifier. "We tried not using it at all and then not too often. But you never know when you need it."
3. Compartmentalised formula container. "Just pour the formula into the warmed bottle and you're done!"
4. Rubberised baby change mat. "You need this because you never know if or when the baby's gonna pee when you change him/her." Yikes.
5. Non-slip baby mat for tub. "Useful because it helps to keep the baby in position in the tub."
6. Talc container with puff. Self-explanatory.
7. Baby oil. For myself more than the baby, since I bought a really small bottle to begin with and it's running out (didn't expect to use such copious amounts at this late stage).
