Furniture (very simple essentials):
- A moses or mini-crib:I recommend the moses as you can move it around the house the first three months
- A cot with 2 adjustable heights: Mine is convertible in a bed for the future, just trying to save some money :)
- A changing table: Simple, stable and if it has drawers or shelves under it, perfect for keeping the nappies, creams, etc.
The nursery was finished long after Baby arrived... |
Toys (Essentials):
- A baby bouncer or baby hammock: This is a "must". Perfect for keeping the baby safe when you need to do other stuff. I even bring it to the bathroom and leave the baby there while having a shower.
- A baby gym: It is great for the baby to play during the first months. Safe and full of fun.
- A rattler: I discovered that Baby preferred the hard plastic ones than the softies, but that depends on the baby.
- Bottles: I recommend this even if you are breastfeeding. Because there may be situations that you won't be able to be there and you can always express some milk and use a bottle. My favourite brand is Avent. I bought the beginners kit with absolutely everything on it, and it has been the best deal ever! (Tesco has it now for £40!!!)
- Sterilizer for bottles: See above!
- Dummy: This is going to cause some controversy. But I am very pro-dummies, sorry, my husband is a dentist and he told me: "You can always remove a dummy but you cannot remove a finger". My favourite brand is MAM (I've tried all of them and Baby only wanted that one!)
- A flask: Good for "on the go" but essential at my home for preparing the night feeds. We did not even have to leave the bed!!!
- Milk Powder dispenser: I use Avent because it came with the kit but Tesco has cheap ones too. Always in conjunction with the flask for the night feeds...
