INFANT CARE
When preparing to bring your babies home, you need to pay attention to all problems, big or small. You're not the first person to ask: "Where will your baby sleep?" or “Where will you put your baby when you can't hold him in your arms?”. Because, as you know, a newborn is a special gift and not an item that comes with instructions for use. However, don't worry too much because first-time parents have the same question as you: Have we prepared enough supplies for the newborn?
If you feel this is a big problem, we will suggest a few simple measures and useful devices . Take a moment to explore these great options, and experience the fun times ahead!
Sleep device: Better than a crib
One reality that parents always face after having children is not being able to have a comfortable sleep like before. Rest time at noon and night is what you look forward to the most. Luckily, we've got lots of great sleep tips and tricks to help you through your baby's first few years of life.
Although some assistive devices can help you lull your baby to sleep, the safest place to sleep is not in them. And surely you always want your child to rest in the most comfortable place. Therefore, you should clear an empty space near your bed, because according to the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics, newborns should share a room with their parents for at least the first six months (and preferably is in one year). Of course, you will also feel more secure knowing that your baby is sleeping next to you, which will also make it more convenient for you to take care of your newborn every night. Here are the things parents need to prepare for newborn babies to sleep:
Crib
Where will you let your new “roommate” sleep? Stay in a crib . A perfect crib will be an accessory for your newborn to have a comfortable sleep. You can choose a crib that is fully functional and highly aesthetic:
- Basic crib line with high aesthetics, gentle crib rocking mode that can be easily folded.
- Luxurious crib line with adjustable lighting, music and soothing noises.
Portable crib with dome
If you're planning on taking your baby on a picnic (even if it's just a walk in the garden or a trip to the park), you should get a portable bassinet . Thus, you will be able to enjoy a fun day without worrying about your baby's rest.
Relaxation device: Helps your baby stop crying and feel comfortable
Newborn babies cannot speak yet. So how do you know if your baby is irritable or bored? The baby will cry. And sometimes that will make you feel very helpless. But sometimes, there are things you can do (like put your baby in the crib or pick him up) to help him stop crying. That's why you need to buy a babysitting device and use it.
Crib given
Most newborn babies love the crib. The cradle is like a small hammock that helps you determine which direction your baby is moving. On the other hand, the Cradle has two feeding modes (top to bottom and side to side), which helps you clearly know which direction your baby likes to move so you can adjust accordingly. .
Here are the top two reasons why parents should buy a crib for their children:
- The cradle has movement, music and sound. These are gentle measures to help your baby stop crying.
- The bassinet provides a safe and warm space for the baby, allowing parents to feel secure in putting the baby down. Parents also reduce arm fatigue when constantly holding the baby.
Baby vibrating chair or rocking chair
Maybe what we're about to say is a little strange, but sometimes babies will cry if you don't put them down. Don't worry, because at that time babies just want to try swinging (or shaking) alone. A baby vibrating chair or rocking chair is a safe device for your baby to have a comfortable space. These chairs are light and easy to move. You can place it anywhere in the house. This allows you to watch your baby while you're doing something else (or while resting).
Crib hanging toys and relaxing toys
Sometimes when babies are tired, they need to be soothed gently (you can use music, noise and light). You need to prepare appropriate baby items to help them relax, such as crib hanging toys or relaxation toys. These methods will also likely become a habit when you wind down at noon or at night. We all know no two babies are the same, so there are lots of different ways to help you soothe your baby:
Children can play with cute stuffed animals accompanied by gentle music and gentle lighting. However, you should not leave toys in your baby's crib.
Cribs with hanging toys and relaxing stuffed animals will help your baby enter wonderful dreamlands.
Table lamps with soft light settings will help your baby fall asleep under the stars.
Sanitary equipment: Helps keep your baby clean
Bath tub
How to bathe your baby safely and properly? You must be very careful. In the first days you can use wet towels to wipe your baby's body. But later you will need to clean your baby more thoroughly (because your baby will often drool). It's time for your baby's bath! You need a bathtub with an anti-slip design specifically for your baby. A four-in-one bathtub with a soft mesh design that resembles a sling that hugs your baby, allowing you to comfortably bathe your baby. Furthermore, don't worry too much, this bath tub has a very special design - it will grow with your child until he or she can walk . Once your baby can sit and play in the water while bathing, you can remove the original net and attach the included chair to the tub so your baby can sit. Although your baby will grow up quickly, we hope you will always keep your baby smelling fresh and clean.
Entertainment equipment: Helps children exercise
Play mat for babies
Even though they are very young, babies still need a place to entertain and play. If you ask other parents what they need to prepare for their baby, the answer will definitely be "an exercise room or a playroom for the baby". This will be a place for children to have fun and entertainment except when eating and resting. The most important thing to remember is that the activity room is not only a fun and colorful place for children to entertain, but it also supports their development .
- Decorate the room with bright colors (can hang lots of toys and mirrors) to stimulate your baby's senses.
- Kicking legs and reaching arms will help your baby's muscles develop.
- The baby playmat with soft material will help your baby practice their abdomen.
Eating aids: Raise your chair!
High chair
Do you have to have a high chair right away? Not necessarily. But once babies can sit, they'll want a place at the table. Even though they can't eat yet, they like to watch you eat (they'll learn to eat that way). That's why you should have a high chair ready to use when your baby can eat with you. You don't need to worry about the chair taking up space . Does your dining table have empty chairs?
Congratulation! That chair will be promoted to a baby-sitter chair (don't confuse baby-sitter with babysitter, because the chair cannot babysit). Your child will sit in a SpaceSaver high chair. You just need to place the SpaceSaver on an existing dining chair so it won't take up extra space. In addition, when your baby starts learning to walk, the SpaceSaver will turn into a walker, so your child will probably need to sit in this chair for quite a long time.
You can never fully prepare everything for a newborn (babies always surprise you). But you need to make sure you will have all the important equipment to welcome your baby, that will help you confidently face big problems, small problems or other interesting things in the future. .
