New Baby Shopping List by Kara Kelso

Being pregnate with your first child is a stressful enough time
without having to worry about if you have all the items you need
for when you bring that little one home. Use the following check
list to put your mind at ease:
1. Crib & accessories
Cribs are an obvious item, but sometimes forgotten are the
accessories that go inside it. You can easily pick up all
bedding when you purchase your crib. Used items can be purchased
on eBay: http://www.momsmarketonline.com/baby-ebay.html or new
at Buddy Blankets or Zuzu's Place.
2. Clothes
Plan to have several sleepers, onsies, and regular outfits.
Don't forget socks! New baby clothes can be purchased at Unique
Baby Boutique, and used clothes at eBay or Carrie's Kiddie
Closet.
3. Diapers
Be sure to weigh your options between cloth diapers and
disposables. Cloth diapers can be purchased at Mrs. MacADoos and
several other online baby stores.
4. Baby wipes
Again weigh the options between disposable and reusable.
Reusable wipes can be purchased at Natural Home.
5. Baby powder
Non-talc is the best for your baby's sensitive skin. Look for
non-talc baby powder at any natural baby store.
6. Diaper bag
Generally given to you at the hospital, but you may wish to have
a larger one and more personalised.
7. Bottles
Even if breastfeeding, you will still want to pick up bottles
and a breast pump. Breast pumps can be found at Unique Baby
Boutique or at local department stores.
8. Baby Bath Tubs
Can be purchased used at eBay, or new at local department
stores.
9.Bath products
Check labels and be sure to buy the most gentle soap possible to
avoid skin problems. Natural soaps can be purchased at Natural
Home, Baby Blossoms, A Family Affair, and other baby stores.
10. Car seat
Used car seats can be found on eBay, or new at your local
department store. Make sure you buy an infant car seat first,
not one designed for a toddler.
These are just basic items which are a necessity. You may also
want to think about purchasing the following:
~ Stroller ~ Swing ~ Walker ~ Play Pen ~ Pacifiers ~ Toys ~ Sun
screen in summer months
Most of these items can be found at Mom's Market:
