5 Must haves for Expecting and New mums

In our last post, we discussed 5 must haves for new born babies. This post is in continuation to that one, listing out the things a mother must have for herself while making a run to hospital. 5 Must Haves for Expecting  & New Mums when making a run to Hospital 1. Nursing Gowns/dress for New Mum (3-4) Again a lot of hospitals do provide the clothings as part of the package but it gives a mother real comfort in her own clothes that she is used to wear at home.   Hospitals are uncomfortable for most of people and you may just want to give a bit of homely touch to the mother after what she has been through. You may buy it before hand and let the mother  were  it 2-3 times to feel comfortable in them afterwards. Emphasising  on the numbers as she may need to change them quite fr...

Work from Home Parent - Create your Workspace

   Are you a work from home parent and struggling to stay focussed on work, then this read is for you. It is going to be half a year since I am working from home due Covid and believe me working from home with kid is not as easy as I thought. As you have a little boss nagging you every second over petty issues which if you ignore may result into a bizarre situation. So, its only last month that I came across a post suggesting the significance of creating a professional work environment at home to increase the efficiency. And I tried implementing the same. And believe me now situation is a lot better as he know that when I am on my work station I should not be disturbed. When my office is over he pretends to be working in office and enjoys sitting on the chair and reading his books on my workstation What I used to create my work station A Chair I was not having a particular study space so I was using sofa, bed or just normal dining chair for do...

Must have things for the new born in your hospital bag

If you are expecting a baby anytime soon pack your bags as it will be any time when you will have to make the hospital run. Here are five essentials for new born that you must have in your prep bag so that you have all the essentials for the first few weeks. We have prepared this list based on our experience and the products recomended here are curated ones. 1. Soft Cotton Nappies Make sure that you have atleast 20 disposable soft cotton nappies in your bag while you are packing.  Baby's skin is way too delicate to be exposed to harmful chemicals so please make sure that you have washed them atleast twice and properly dried them in sun. Don't use one with the elastic.  Initially, we prepared these at  home from  old soft muslin  cloth and purchased few later on. However, if you can't make them at home do try these options available at Amazon.    STRICTLY NO DIAPERS FOR INITIAL TWO WEEKS!!...

Five must have things for your newborn within the first month

1. Mittens Mittens are the last things on the shopping list for a new born, however they should be among the first thing that you should buy. Baby's skin is soft and delicate and while their tiny eyes are still adjusting to the light they tend to use their hands a lot to touch face. A t times, t hey also tend to scratch themselves.  Baby's nails are so sharp and thin that they often end up hurting their delicate skin and can do a lot of damage to their eyes, ears and other places. Mittens cover the hands and thus prevent the nails from getting in contact to their skin. We brought 4-5 pairs of Mee  Mee  Mittens. 2. Diapers As a first time parent, I was really confused while buying diapers for the new born. Though, we were apprehensive about using diapers for our baby during first few weeks but doctor suggested us to use it at night. Later,  use any d...
