A huge number of questions arise after parents find out about the pregnancy.
This is actually one of the most remarkable and at the same time the most responsible and challenging events.
Parents should consider every single thing that their little one may need.
Even though there are 9 months ahead, you definitely won’t be prepared to the fullest. But there are some basic tips for you not to screw up.
Let’s talk about a newborn baby space. It’s quite important as the nursery room will be the place where a baby gets older, develops, plays, rests, etc.
You’ll spend hours and hours cleaning it, setting up your furniture, and decorating and organizing it before the baby’s arrival.
It surely should be cheerful, functional, and quite close to your bedroom but remember about some necessary things for your baby’s convenience and safety.

Make a Nursery Room Clean and Usable
Do everything possible to make it comfortable and pleasant for you and your child to stay in this room.
If you are starting from the very beginning, paint the room in soft or light colors because bright colors can disturb your baby from falling asleep.
And pay attention to the paint you choose, it should be non-toxic. It makes sense because your little one may want to peel the paint off and eat it while getting older.
In addition, buying hang curtains is also a great idea. It will be helpful during the nap, when the sun is shining.
The next step is to oil all the doors and lockers that can crack so as not to wake up the child during sleep.
Moreover, you can install a dimmer switch to adjust the light that will be comfortable at different times of the day and night.
When comes to the floor, it is better to choose tiles or hardwood instead of carpet, because some children may be allergic to it.
What Items Do You Really Need During the First Months of Your Baby’s Life?
1. A Crib
It’s just essential. We recommend you set it up several months before the baby’s arrival. You won’t have time if it will happen earlier than you’ve expected. You create a safe sleeping area for a baby with a crib.
If you set it up yourself, make sure every detail is in its place and everything is right.
In addition, look for a crib with a firm mattress and check the distance between the edges of the mattress and the side part, it should be less than 2 fingers in width.
You can also hang a baby mobile over the crib if you wish. It can entertain or calm down your little one.
2. A Changing Table and Dresser
It is quite convenient when they come 2 in 1. It saves space in the nursing room and is extremely convenient.
Choose the size of the table due to your preferences and possibilities. If you have enough space you can take a bigger one that will allow you to put a changing pad.
This changing table will help your back not to deteriorate after several years of changing the diapers.
And having the dresser under it will have an advantage.
You don’t need to spend time on getting around and looking for baby’s clothes. Say goodbye to losing the other pair of your baby’s cable-knit socks. Having extra storage is both convenient and a time-saver. Everything will be close to you, you just need to reach it out.

3. Organize Baby Feeding Place
It’s crucial to have a well-prepared place with all the necessary stuff for nursing.
Breastfeeding doesn’t require a lot of things, but you may want to surround yourself and your baby with burp cloths, a breastfeeding pillow, nursing pads, nipple cream, and a breast pump.
In case of bottle-feeding, you may need some bottles, a variety of bottle nipples, a bottle brush, and so on and so forth.
That way, baby feeding will be a pleasant time for you.

There should be something that will help you to lift your legs up, when the baby is sleeping or to sit and comfortably soothe him when he cries.
During a sleepless night, you will thank yourself for a chair prepared in advance, which has many different functions.
5. Baby Cam
Of course, it’s additional, but it will be useful when your baby falls asleep and you want to control him but simultaneously do some household things.
The baby cam will just give you peace of mind. And in case of crying or whimpering, you will be able to react quickly.
6. Find Space for Other Baby’s Essentials
After your baby’s arrival you will be surprised how many new items you have got.
