Hi Parents2B, you can start to buy some essential baby stuff already. But like what Joyce mentioned, don't over-buy. The things you will need for the baby are: -Bath tub -Soft towels (bath/face) -Non rinse baby bath (Sebamed/Latacyd) -Baby tops/bottoms (get later as you won't know baby's size yet) -Mittens/Bootees -Nappy rash cream (either Desitin or Secura) -Sterile cotton wool -Sterile Cotton buds -Baby bottles (universal ones so that the cover can fit all brands like Pigeon/Nuk. Avent is

Hi Parents2B, I guess what Joyce meant by \"warm the breast\" is to clean with a warm towel for a faster let down. Let down means the release of bm when letting the baby latch on.

Hi Parents2B, newborns tend to get 'wind' in their tummy easily. Most have mild jaundice in the first few weeks. If you plan to bf, control the ginger intake. Also if you are applying any ointment on the baby, pour a little into your palms and then rub your palms to warm them first. Then put your palm near the baby's tummy. Newborns have soft and sensitive skin, so they may not be able to take the direct heat from your palms or the oil.

Hi Parents2B, you are welcome. Don't forget about yourself too. Look out for baby fairs. Sometimes you can get maternity pads at discounted rates. Madame is comfortable with its long and wide pads. No worries about leakage at the sides or back. More comfortable than loop pads.
