NOTHING IS MORE EXCITING THAN EXPECTING A NEW LIFE IN THE FAMILY. JOY WANG FINDS GETTING THE BABY ROOM READY MAKES EXPECTING MORE JOYOUS.
When the little one arrives, you will be the centre of is or her universe; nd that universe will be centre largely in the baby room. It will be thefirst place for your bb to dream, to explore, and to grow. You certainly wish to welcome the new arrival with a lovely bb zone especially prepared for the unique him.
Feel a kick from the inside? Yes, the bb is trying totell you that he cannot wait to see the outside world: his beautiful mom- and his kingdom. Why not take him on an on-site visit of the new room, though he's still in your belly?
PREPARE EARLY
WHEN GOOD NEWS COMES THAT A BB IS ON THE WAY, SOMETIMES NINE MONTHS MIGHT NOT SEEM ENOUGH TIME. START TO PREPARE EARLY, NO LATER THN SIX OR SEVEN MONTHS PREGNANT WHEN YOU ARE STILL ABLE TO GET AROUND FAIRLY EASILY.
CHOOSE A QUIET AND PEACEFUL ROOM WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC IN THE HOUSE. AS THE LITTLE ONE SPENDS MOST OF THE TIME SLEEPING OR LOOKING UP, REMEMBER TO SET UP GENTLE LIGHTING.
ARRANGE FURNITURE
START THE PREPARATION WITH THE CRIB- YOUR BB'S FIRST BED. NEWBORNS NEEDS ARE SIMPLE: AFIRM AND FLAT MATTRESS AND A SAFE ENCLOSURE WHERE HE OR SHE FEELS PROTECTED AND SECURE.
IN THE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF INFANCY,YOU MAY PREFER A BASSINET WHICH CAN BE CARRIED EASILY FROM ROOM TO ROOM SO THAT YOU CAN KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR SLEEPING INFANT. HOWEVER, A BASSINET IS NOT A NECESSITY. IT MAY BE USEFUL ONLY FOR THE FIRSST FOUR OR FIVE MONTHS BECAUSE MOST BASSINETS CANNOTSUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF AN OLDERBB, WHICH MAES THEM A BIT OF A LUXURY ITEM.
FROM DAY ONE, YOU WILL NEED A PLACE TO CHANGE DIAPRS AND CLOTHES FOR THE BB. YOU CAN BUY A CHANGING TABLE SPECIFICALY DESIGNED FOR INFANT DIAPER CHANGING OR JUST USE ANY OTHE FLAT SURFACE COVERED WITH A CHANGINGPAD OR TOWEL, BUT MAKE SURE THE TABLE IS STABLE.
