Baby Shopping Guide-2

Feeding

For formula feeding

The necessities:
____ 8 or so bottles with newborn nipples (try several brands to find the one your baby prefers)
____ Bottle-cleaning brush or a dishwasher basket
____ Bottle-drying rack
____ Several weeks' worth of baby formula to start
____ 6 or more cotton bibs
____ 6 or more burp cloths (cloth diapers do the job)
____ Insulated cooler/carrier for outings
It's nice to have:
____ Dry formula dispenser
____ Bottle sterilizer
Strictly optional:

    ____ Nursing pillow
    ____ 2-3 nursing bras
    ____ 2-3 boxes of nursing pads
    ____ 6 or more cotton bibs
    ____ 6 or more burp cloths (cloth diapers do the job)
    It's nice to have:
    ____ Breast pump (electric if you'll use it every day at work, otherwise a hand pump is fine)
    ____ Breast milk storage bags or containers
    ____ Several bottles and nipples if someone else will be feeding baby pumped breast milk
    ____ Nipple cream (for the first few weeks)

      Solid-food feeding

      ____ Plastic bibs

      It's nice to have:
