checklist: What to Buy for Baby II

[vuzhia]

sis pinkpotato & sis bummed, salamat sa mga info

yey! tandaan ko mga sinabi nyo sisses, need pala talga yung swaddle blanket, kase nung pinakita ko kay hubby sabi nya hindi daw makakagalaw si baby & maiinitan, yun pala talaga purpose nun, sa first few days nya need nun 

yung bigkis bili na rin ako, baka maghanap mama ko, hehe!

oo nga pala nursing cover, meron na kase ako order sa group buy na nursing top & camisole, hanap na rin ako nursing cover, thanks!

yung boppy pillow papa research ko na lang kay hubby pag naka panganak na ako, sana naman wag ako ma CS

naisip ko rin hindi pa naman need yung pang labas na damit ni baby no? kase ako ayaw ko rin na ilalabas agad si baby sa 1st 2 months nya, sa house lang muna talaga sya pwera na lang pag need nyang pa check-up

i also bought ziplock for packing sets of clothes to be used in hospital, minsan kasi yung mga nurse lalo na pag lalaki hindi organize sa pagbalik ng mga used clothes ni baby.

hala! sobrang tamad ko, apart from toiletries (which we already have in stock dahil mustela parin naman ang gamit ng 4 yo ko) and the cot, wala pa ako halos nabibili for my little one who is coming soon.... its not because of superstition or anything, its just that nagbakasyon kasi kami then busy ulit sa work... I'm on week 35 na tomorrow! Di bale, next week is my last week at work so I told hubby the first thing we need to do when I'm on maternity leave is shop!!

Thanks for all your lists sisters, very helpful. 

[bebeocho]

I'm 5 months pregnant now at ayaw din akong pabilhin pa ng gamit ng parents ko. Supportive naman si hubby na bumili earlier. (d cya naniniwala sa pamahiin) Sa ngayon ang binili pa [textspeak!] namin ay avent sterilizer and 2 sets of newborn starter kits (natural bottles). Sale kc dito sa Sg eh sayang ang discount. The rest of the items lalo na mga damit mommy ko na [textspeak!] bibili since mas mura dyan sa manila tutal dyan naman ako manganak. Ang bilhin na [textspeak!] namin [textspeak!] dito ay yung stroller at playpen (kung may makita kme na ok) pag may baby fair.

Sisses question lang po anong tawag dun sa pillow na malaki na kasya si baby? nursing pillow po ba yun?  Shape nya parang neck pillow pero malaki cya at medyo plush. Para saan din po yun?

Safe na rin po bang bumili ng breast pump kahit d pa nanganganak? Plan ko kc after na [textspeak!] sana pag andyan na si baby. Tsaka for breast pumps, electric na po ba agad binili nyo?

[vuzhia]

^sis boppy pillow tawag dun, I'm 29 weeks pa lang kaya hindi pa ako ganun ka expert, pero ako nag order muna online ng manual pump, then pag established ng milk ko at back to work na ako saka ako bibili ng electric breast pump, hindi naman masasayang yung manual kase need naman talaga ang manual pag wala access sa battery or outlet

nahihirapan ako bumili ng bib, ayaw ko kase nung may mga design/print na parang may paint rubber, parang naisip ko ipapamunas ko yun sa mouth ni baby tapos may paint, hanap pa ako

^ if you do intend to use bottles, then strerilizer is a necessity, sis.

[twisted_halo]

daveigh I put an * because it may not be a necessity for some moms. I have mom friends who boil or microwave their bottles depending on what type of bottles they have, i.e. glass, BPA, etc.

For me though I will buy one for convenience.

[daveigh]

^ Kunsabagay. Totoo, it's convenient. Correct time ang boiling when using a sterilizer. I also include na baby's water while sterilizing kasi, so economical, unlike boiling it sa kalan or electric stove. So if you are on your own, I really suggest buying one. But of course, to each her own.

I do not really recommend microwaving baby bottles though:

I have a question mga sis. May nabibili ba dito satin na abdominal binder? Kasi mukhang mas ok sya unlike sa bigkis minsan natatanggal. Tsaka yung cloth diaper, sulit ba sya kesa sa disposable? Hindi ba sya mahirap labhan?

[scents01]

^sis sa sm dept store, check mo abdominal binder, st. Patricks ang brand

[EJ2526]

^Sige sis check ko. How much kaya yun?

[scents01]

^i forgot sis, baka 200 per piece. maganda naman..

[EJ2526]

Ahh sige check ko sya thanks!

[trishevil]

Mga sis, how much ang lampin sa Divisoria ngayon? Gusto ko lang i-canvass yung price kasi plan ko sana sa Grand Baby Fair ako bumili ng ganun. How much ang birdseye at gauze?

[kariseyow]

^ bili ko saken sis 280/pack (12) na. Birds eye yun natitigasan kasi ako sa gauze type kaso sabi yun daw mas absorbent.
