FAQ's
Do I need everything before the baby arrives?
No. Focus on sleep, feeding, clothing, nappy changing, and transportation. Many non-essential items can be purchased later.
How many newborn clothes should I buy?
A week's worth of clothing is usually sufficient. Babies grow quickly and may outgrow newborn sizes within weeks.
Should I buy a breast pump before birth?
Many parents wait until feeding is established. If you plan to express milk regularly, purchasing one beforehand can be helpful.
How many nappies will a newborn use?
Most newborns use between 8–12 nappies per day during the first few weeks.
Is a nursery necessary immediately?
No. Many babies sleep in their parents' room for the first several months.
When should I install the car seat?
Ideally by 36 weeks of pregnancy so you're prepared if labour starts earlier than expected.
