Baby Care Safety Tips You Need
By
It’s significantly simpler to look after older infants and children than to care for a newborn baby. This is usually because they are awfully fragile and have wants that they cannot simply express – they manifest this need only by crying.
One of the probable factors that make a contribution to post-natal depression is the difficulty of green – or experienced – mums with newborn baby care. To minimize the impact of this condition, it is helpful to read books about caring for children. When you are informed about newborn baby care, chances are you will not be caught flat-footed when something unusual happens to your child.
What are the important things to know?
Old wives’ tales about newborn baby care abound. Sometimes listening to too many of these legends make mummies worry unnecessarily over their baby’s health. Old folks, for instance, continually point out that it is not a good idea to bring the newborn baby out of the house.
the truth is, almost all babies need morning sun to negate the initial stages of jaundice. Taking the baby outside even a mere few weeks after birth is completely acceptable, as long as the infant is wearing comfortable, cool clothes during summer and safely wrapped up in a warm blanket during the cooler months.
When the baby is several weeks old, you could notice some changes on his skin – that is, his skin may become flaky and could even’shed.’ it’s not important to apply lotions or oils, as this is standard for newborns. In newborn baby care, the employment of chemicals is usually avoided even as these are thought to be safe for adults.
Even the baby’s scalp will shed its top layer a few weeks after birth. In some cases, a little help is needed in removing this layer of dead cells. You can carefully rub it away with a sponge while bathing the baby, but there’s really no need to apply oils or lotions on his calp.
Many children will also develop mild rashes. These are standard and newborn baby care dictates that they must not be treated with creams and ointments that may be too tough for the baby’s skin. These rashes might be due to different factors. When the rashes get worse or seem too out of the standard, it’s best to consult the pediatrician about it.
Another common issue in newly born baby care is whether to carry the infant or not when it is crying. Fogeys often agree on not giving in to a kid’s crying because this might wreck the kid. However, at that age, it is almost impossible to spoil a newly born.
Common newly born baby care sense will tell you that when a newborn baby cries, it’s because it wishes something – that something could be anything from milk or a diaper change. Being comforted is also a basic need of newborns, so denying them this in their first few weeks of life may lead to an extreme psychological impact on the kid.
What do I do with the stump?
Many new mothers who are not too well-vesred in newborn baby care frequently feel ill about having to handle the umbilical cord. Remember that the stump is nothing else but dead protein so accidentally touching it won’t cause any harm to the infant.
the most important thing to know in newborn baby care, as regards the umbilical cord, is to keep it dry at any time. If it unavoidably gets wet during bathing, take a cotton ball doused with alcohol and clean the rope with it.
By the end of the second week, the stump will have fallen off. After this happens, refrain from showering the infant more often than every 2 or 3 days, to allow it to completely heal.

Wow that is one long list lol.
Ok well for safety all you need to beginning with is baby monitors the rest are for when they start crawling wwhich wont be until they are 6-8 months so you don't need to purchase them just now unless you want to be super prepared.
Nursing/Feeding:
Breastpump – not essential unless you want to exprees easier just to put baby on the boob though. if you are going to get one I would recommend an electric one so much quicker and easier to use.
Breast Pads – Stock up on these
Breast Cream – Definitely need this
Breastmilk Storage – again on essential if you are going to express.
Containers or Bags – I got a bag that holds two bottles but my changing bag alreayd had one integrated into it so check to make sure yours doesn't before you waste any money.
Breastfeeding Shawl – Upto you really if you want something to sort of cover yourself when feeding get one.
Nursing Pillow – I can't stand mine it is so awkward and makes it hard to hold the baby I wanted recommend these unless you are formula feeding.
Burping Cloths – get plenty of these are muslin squeares at least 10
6-12 Cloth Diapers – not necessary if you are using disposable
6 Lap Pads – not essential
6-8 Bottles for Formula – I would recommend 2x 125ml and 6x 260ml
Juice and Water:
Bottle Warmer – I never use mine I just stick it hot water to warm it up less hassle.
Bottle Sterilizer definite essential
Bottle Drying Rack – can just stick them on the draining board this isn't essential.
Bottle Brush – this will probably just come with your sterliser
Dishwasher Caddy – don't need this when you still sterlising your bottles.
Insulated Tote – either this or a bottle bag you don't need both.
Feeder for Strained Foods – you wont need this until 4-6 months
8-12 Bibs: Can never have too many
Pacifiers: Thats personal prefernce whether you want to give your baby one.
Baby Mittens: At least 4 pairs
Rattles: Optional could get one or two normally don't bother with these until they are about 3 months anyway.
Teethers: Don't need this right away again at a couple of months
Books for Parents-To-Be: Don't need these at all you can learn from other people amd familyor YA! lol
Baby Care
Nail Clippers – essential or some people bite them off
Brush and Comb – I ve not used mine yet my daughter hardly has any hair
Digital Thermometer – Always handy to have when you have a young child
Ear Thermometer – Only need one Thermometer.
First Aid Kit – Not essential you'll probably have stuff ike this already anyway
Humidifier/Vaporizer – Not necessary or essential
Diaper Pail good to have to stor your diapers in for the day before you trhow them in the trash so you don't have to be in and out the house all day.
Diaper Pail Refills – These are diaper sacks
Bath
Baby Bathtub – not essential can use sink or bath support or take baby in the bath but I find mine useful for when she is really tiny
Baby Bath Sponge – Essential
4 Hooded Bath Towels – Not essential could use a normal towel and swaddle her in it
12 Washcloths – don't need that many
Bath Toys – don't need these to start with and or optional not essential
Toiletries
All toiletries are essential except alcohol swab some people don't use shampoo to start with either as it can cause cradle cap. I just used water to start with for the first few weeks
Diapers/Formula
Need all this stuff apart from a wipe warmer not necessary.
Baby Gear:
Carseat and base if it is ISOFIX. Head support but most car seats come with this and carseat toy keeps them entertained on longer journeys and shaded to keep them protected from the sun on warmer days.
Stroller:
You can get 3 in 1 travel systems that have a carrycot, fit a carseat and seat unit for when they are older. Most will come with all the essentail like rain cover etc and you can get a toy if you want.
Entertainments/ swings:
I would recommend the fisher price cradle swing my daughter loves hers. A bouncer and play mat or gym is all you need for the first few months they sleep the majority of the time
High Chairs:
You will need a high chair when she is 6mnths +
Nursery
Cradles/Bassinets:
Cradle, Bassinet or Portable Crib
Cradle, Bassinet or Portable Crib Bedding Set
2-3 Cradle, Bassinet or Portable Crib Sheets
Bassinet Netting – you will only need this if you have it outside

Refuse vaccines, they contain aluminum, mercury, MSG, aspartame/formaldehyde, squalene etc that cause diseases such as lupus, arthritus, Gulf War Synrdrome, Guillain-Barre, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, ADD/ADHD, autism, asthma, cancer etc. Now the WHO is pushing for 4.9 billion H1N1 vaccines to be made and used worldwide that may just have nanochips in them.
