My Newborn Checklist

This morning I was having a conversation with my Project Manager, about the price range for baby diapers and formula milk and so on. Dan beliau cakap, bajet kasar untuk susu formula sahaja adalah lebih kurang RM500 sebulan *pengsan*. Daddy, please take note. Terus nekad nak bagi breastfeeding sampai 2 tahun supaya tak payah beli susu formula T_T

Realizing that the need for the baby does not end there, I've doing some research (like I have nothing more important to do now :/), the basic needs for the newborn for dummies Mummy-to-be out there. And looking at the long list.. goodbye Baby GAP, goodbye OshKoshB'Gosh :'(

Salam, i think u punya list ada yang tak perlu lagi masa newborn, boleh tolak tepi(kalau u nak save lah).instead of using Baby bibs, better guna handkerchief dulu. Baby swing pon masa 1st month tak perlu lagi. playing mat pun.1st aid kit pun tak perlu! ha ha.

And, kalau nak save, baby diaper rash cream n nipple cream, i suggest u beli bepanthen ointment cream(ada d watson/guardian). 2 in one, works for baby n also mummy!

And pasal 2 in 1 cream tu, thanks for the info! Kalau ada apa2 yang boleh save cost lagi please let me know tau =)


f.a.r.a.h:
Ermm, maybe you can start with stroller or car seat lah (bagi yang mahal terus HAHA).
Yea, itulah yang I selalu set on my mind. Anak itu rezeki. Thanks sayang :)

baby powder tu tak perlu kot. sbb jangka masa panjang not good to the lung. jadik lotion saja sudah.
