All moms prepare a long checklist of items for the new member of the family. Many among them including myself, ensure to buy the most essential items in advance of the delivery. So in this article, let me share a few things that I find very essential when our newborn arrives. From this list, first-time moms (also expecting moms) can identify the missing items on their list.
Newborn clothes
When you plan to buy clothes for your newborn, you may include the following on your list: swaddles, frog suits, pairs of tie side long sleeves and pajamas, t-shirts, mittens, bonnet, and booties. The newborn babies are asleep most of the time. Hence the dress that the baby wears while sleeping should make them feel warm.
When you select frog suits, try to get those which close with snaps between the legs. You can easily change the diaper with that type of clothes. You may go for short sleeves or long sleeves after considering the weather in your place. When the climate is chill make sure to dress your newborn in bonnet, mittens, and booties too.
Feeding bottles
Even if it is highly-recommended to breastfeed our little one during their first year, keeping a few feeding/storage bottles is pretty handy. To give an example, you can use them as your breastmilk storage rather than using disposable breastmilk bags which by the way, is not cheap. You are also helping our Mother Earth by using reusable storage bottles.
So I came across this brand named Chummy Baby that offers good quality but super affordable in price. Their 150ml feeding bottle starts at P69 only. This is perfect for moms who have a limited budget! Plus, look at the packaging, it is so cute! By the way, don’t forget to check the last part of this post coz’ I’m giving away these to my one lucky reader!
Diapers/cloth diapers
Moms of newborns may ensure to keep sufficient stocks of diapers. The newborn child will require a minimum of 6 diapers a day. When you buy diapers for the first time ensure to buy a few packs of diapers from different brands. A stock of washcloths is necessary too. Wash the cloth in warm water to wipe the baby’s diaper area or while even during bath time. In case the baby gets a diaper rash, get a cream that is advised by your pediatrician. Most importantly, make sure you dispose of your dirty diapers properly.
Digital thermometer
Another important item that should be included in your newborn checklist is a digital thermometer. Moms may keep a first-aid kit exclusively for the newborn. Apart from other items, a digital thermometer must be a part of the first-aid kit. With a digital thermometer, you can easily check the baby’s temperature and if required you may take him/her to the clinic immediately.
Breastfeeding pillow
Many mothers have difficulty breastfeeding their kids. As a result of breastfeeding the kid in awkward angles (or position), the mother develops back-pain and baby gets digestive disorders. The best solution is to use a breastfeeding pillow. An adjustable breastfeeding pillow made of cotton or foam is comfortable sleeping pillows also.
Baby monitor
When you have a baby monitor, the guardian or parents can watch the activities of the baby even if they are out of the room. For a “yaya-less” mom, this will help her to do other chores while the baby is asleep. A baby monitor costs a thousand bucks but I find it a great investment.
So that’s it. Hope you find this newborn checklist helpful! Is there anything I missed? Let me know in the comments.

I like most is the cloth diapers😍Because using cloth diapers can save.money ,reduce environmental waste and prevent diaper rashes in our babies.❤
breastfeeding pillow po dahil breastfeed po ako..tamang tama yan sa mga katulad namin bf mom.😍😍😍
cloth diaper kasi long terk use sya.makakasave ka ng malaki sa pagbili ng disposable diaper,iwas rasges and infection kay baby plus masasave mo pa si mother earth dahil bawas basura❤️
As a mommy talaga yung pinakafirst instinct natin is yubg magtipid para magkasya ang budget. Kaya naman pagdating sa mga binibili natin unang hanap natin yung mura at yung safety and credibility ng products. Usually ang mga binibili natin is yung mga recommended by friends or mommy bloggers na nakasubok na nung produkto 😍 Kaya nakakatuwa na nakakita na naman ako ng brand na mas tipid as compared sa brand na gamit ko din ngayon 😍😍 Sa panahon ngayon talagang kailangan maging wais dahil ang hirap kumita ng pera 😊
Cloth Diaper ♥︎ Cheaper than disposable diapers yet eco friendly, and baby butt friendly hehe. 😁
Breastfeeding pillow po sana . Breastfeeding mom po ako sa bunso ko. Hoping manalo

Yung pinakanagustuhan ko po sa nabanggit niyo is yung diaper /cloth diaper. Talaga pong magastos ang mga newborns sa diaper naranasan ko po yan sa panganay ko. Kaya sa second ko po gusto ko itry yung cloth diapers. Bukod sa mas makakatipid ka na, makakatulong kapa sa kalikasan. 😍
I like the most is ung Cloth Diaper. Tipid sa pera kasi pwedeng labhan. Yan talaga ung gustong gusto kong mabili para sa anak ko kaso di afford. 😁 Hope to win para nman magkaroon si LO. ❤️

Cloth diaper po ang pinaka gusto ko po sa lahat dahil dito ka po talaga makakatipid at makakasiguradong walang rash si baby..
Digital thermometer ang like ko kasi malalaki na kids ko 2y.o ung bunso ko last time nagkasakit nghiram pa ko thermometer kasi nasira na ung skin . Kaya un po gusto ko 😍
Breastfeeding pillow.
Yung 3rd baby ko lang ang napa-breastfeed ko and I know how hard it is kapag walang support sa arm. Hindi ko naisip yun since hindi ko rin kasi na-experience sa dalawang anak ko.
Diapers/cloth diaper ❤
Bukod sa lagi itong magagamit, laking tipid pa po ito at environmental friendly talaga. Sana po palarin for my upcoming baby no. 2🤰❤
I have 2 kids na rin and my coming pa.. mostly sa first ko marami akong di nagawa, so yung iba binawi ko kahit papano sa second, di lang talaga ako masyado pinagpala sa bf, pero will bf pa din.. super like ko and will continue yung cloth diaper.. and buti naitago ko pa bf pillow.. and by the way wala pa pala akong nasusulat na mga things needed kay baby haha! At dahil dito, sisimulan ko na! Will definitely try this new brand ng bottles! Thanks momsh!
