Diapering
Diaper cream : Resinol is our favorite, you can find it in the pharmacy.
You don’t need a prescription for it but you’ll have to ask them for it. We also use Butt Paste, you only need 1 tube we still have the same tube we purchased before Grady was born. We have also used aquaphor is works wonders on rashes like skin irritations. Grady had a heat rash last winter and we thought he had eczema we put some aquaphor on it and it was cleared up in just a few days.
Diapers – Variety of sizes, remember you can return diapers to the
store they were purchased at for a different size. It's hard to get a "stock" of diapers because babies grow at different rates. For example Grady was in newborn diapers for not even a month when Audrey was in newborn diapers for about 2 months. I would suggest getting a big box of newborn and at least a box of every size. We love Pampers and if my mother in law isn't buying us diapers from the hospital we are purchasing them on Amazon for pretty cheap.
Wipes - A lot of times people forget about wipes and just buy diapers but you need a lot of wipes! Our favorite is Pampers.
Baby powder - Chad told me to put this one here, I've never use it.
Changing pad – If you are going to put the changing pad on top of the dresser you just need a cheap changing pad. Honestly we barely use the changing pad and just change Audrey on the floor or on the bed.
Changing pad sheets - If you are going to do the changing pad you will need 2 sheets.
Doggie bags - My favorite for when we are out and about and have a
poopy, especially when we are at someones house. No ones wants to leave a poopy diaper in someone else's trash can.
Diaper genie - If you are breastfeeding you really don't need one of these until they start solids but you are for sure going to want one then. Breastmilk poop smells sweet but as soon as solids are introduce the stink is on. I can't find the exact one we have but you don't need a super nice one of these just one to hold the odor.
