7 New Baby Must-Haves

At Doylestown Women's Health Center, we're always looking out for ways to make it easier to stay healthy as a woman. Our commitment to your health and lifestyle extends past just your pregnancy and into your journey as a mother, and if you have a new baby on the way or have recently welcomed a child into the world, there are a number of products out there that make the beginning of the motherhood experience easier. Check out these 7 must-have products for making the start of motherhood a little bit easier!

  • Baby Clothes: It's always good to stock up on baby clothes before bringing your newborn home, and you'll want a variety of types and sizes available to best suit your baby. Opt for clothing that's soft, comfortable, and easy to wear and clean – baby fashion is fine, but for the day-to-day, you'll want to make things as easy as possible for yourself. 
  • Wipes: Even for the most avid parent, changing a diaper isn't a fun process. Baby wipes make the process easier and cleaner. 
  • Baby Carrier: Holding your little one in your arms is one of the unique joys of motherhood, but at a certain point, you'll need to make a phone call. Get a baby carrier so you can have your newborn close while still leaving your hands free.
  • Car Seat: A car seat is a must-have for safety, and while you may see tempting deals on used, it's always better to buy a new car seat so it's compliant with current safety standards and regulations.
  • Bottle Brushes: You probably already know that you need bottles, but be sure to pick up some bottle brushes as well to make the cleaning process easy.
  • Bounce Seat: Especially as your baby gets a little older, you'll want to find as many ways to keep them occupied as possible. Bounce seats make sitting a little more fun by allowing your baby to move as they sit, which many babies find enjoyable and comforting.
  • Stroller: A stroller seems like a simple buy, but there's near endless variety. Think critically about what you want in a stroller before you purchase one: do you need storage space for carrying extra things? Want something light for going up and down stairs? Are portability and space efficiency most important? Thinking ahead will help you buy the right stroller, which will make things much easier in the long run.
