Less than 2 months away... mixed feelings indeed! My check-up has been upgraded to every fortnight sudah...and tomorrow is my next. Sadly, Hubby won't be around to accompany me.. so will probably just go on my own. A blogger friend Mrs. I shared her checklist... and I sorta feel that I should post mine as well.. This was mine last time.... and below is the better version of it. I just simply copy, paste n edit from her site.
POSTNATAL & BABY CHECKLIST
For Myself, the mummy-to-be~~ :
- Postnatal Treatment - Booked! Pampering time @ home is a bliss~
- Disposable/ washable breast pads – have not got these yet...
- Nursing bras - From Lilly's, super comfortable and can be converted to sports ones! DONE! but still need to get yang utk basahan (i.e. treatment period) krg melakat bau minyak apa~
- Maternity pads – Not yet.. I'm pretty choosy when it comes to pads.. so mayb I'll just stick with my usual pads except get an overnight / heavy flow ones.
- Socks - Tonnes!!
- Nursing tops - Bought one from Lilly's... and it's fab!!
- Bodysuits - DONE!
- Sleepsuits - DONE!
- 2pc clothing – DONE!
- Going out (LS) – Will buy them lepas pantang nanti... ~ hehehe
- Mittens & Booties – DONE! come's with the set of bodysuits n sleepsuits we've bought. Besides, if suits mothercare the flap on the sleeves can be turnover hence, no mittens required!
- Baby cap – DONE!
- Cloth diapers - actually planned to start using them once baby is around 2-3 mths old but, just to get ready, got 4 of Flips Diapers as well as extra inserts. Semangat? Yes!
- Swaddle wrap - I believe in the 2 in 1 concept of using the hooded towel as swaddles as well.. so yes, just bought as many of those and set aside which one for swaddling and which d jadikan towel.
- Baby laundry detergent – Trying Purity Sensitive but without the fabric softener. Again 2-in-1, can be used to clean cloth diapers as well~
- Breast pump – A matter of clicking 'Proceed With Payment' lagi. Buying them from UK site as it is much cheaper than the price sold here in Brunei or even Malaysia. So that's partly done DONE!
- Feeding bottles / Steriliser / Warmer / Cleaning Brush – DONE! Bought the Tommee Tippee Complete Set at an amazingly cheap price!
- Milk Storage – Farlin and Lansinoh Storage Bags
- Cooler Bag for milk – We'll see how it goes with this one...
- Bib – bought the 10 in a pack ones.
- Burping Towel - DONE!
- Bottle Drying Rack - we'll see...
- Bottle Cleanser - Still contemplating on which brands to try out first. Hehehehe
- Bath tub - confinement period, will be sharing with my nephew's, so we'll be needing this after the maternity leave (ML)
- Baby shampoo / bath / lotion / oil - bought the travel pack (ready to be kept in our baby's bath box)
- Cotton buds – blum lagi~
- Cotton balls / roll - belum lagi...
- Towels - refer to swaddles.
- Changing Mat - I might as well get travel changing mats saja tarus. compact and easy to keep. Belum bali lgi psl d rumah pun ada jua sudah (sharing is caring kan?)
- Baby wipes – belum lagi...
- Baby Brush & Comb, Nailclipper, Thermometer, nasal pump - Done and bought as a set.
- Disposable diaper - to be bought early next month. Terlampau awal jua ni ah...
- Minyak Telon - I don't know why, but I love the smell of this on babies!
- Minyak Kelapa - will try to get a homemade one instead of commercialised ones. good for massaging the little one and cradle caps.
Beddings :
- Baby cot – Ohohoo... this is interesting, my dearest baby will be using MY 27 years old vintage cot! We've done some 'modernisation' works with it, oh I should post that yea... and I like!!
- Mattress – DONE!
- Blankets and pillow set -DONE!
- Stroller + Carseat – It was an offer not to be missed. Hence, we've got both sudah..
- Baby Sling/ Carrier -It depends on the baby's preference nanti... :D
- Diaper bag – still contemplating on this one, but I have my eye on this one bag...~
Ya Allah, permudahkanlah segala urusan ku nanti dan lindungilah kami sesungguhnya kepadaMu lah ku bermohon segalanya. *Amin*
