First, WE SAY SLEEP! You get a new baby! Now, move on to more critical things. You will prepare your new baby, mentally, physically, and you will need to repair your house and car to get a new baby again!
Psychologically preparing a new baby
Remember this, women get used to having a new baby faster than men; therefore, do not expect husbands to become all fathers after the announcement of the pregnancy. They are not. Women get used to the new baby, mentally, because they experience physical, emotional, and psychological changes. These changes help them to adjust to a new baby quickly. However, men begin to feel a new baby when they see a lump or hear a baby whimper in the mother's womb.
Physical preparation for a new baby
There is not much that a new father can do to prepare for a new baby. What the father has to do must be done BEFORE the baby gets pregnant. However, a new father may try to quit smoking, to stop drinking, and to do other bad things when the new baby is pregnant. A new mother needs to do the same.
Planning for a new baby: a house and a car
For a new baby, depending on whether you plan to sleep with the baby or whether you plan to end the baby in a different room affects the changes in your home. In any case, we recommend that you have a separate room for your new baby, even if the baby is going to sleep with the new parents for the first few months. Baby bed, some toys, a place to put all the baby clothes, shelves to hold good cosmetics, creams, diapers, diapers, etc. FIT near the changing table.
You will also consider getting a baby seat again; baby car seat (at the right height of the dining table) and baby car seat (walking). Some child seats can be adjusted to fit the adult dining chair AND get into the car at the same time. They cost less than standard baby seats, but multi-function is much easier, PLUS is completely comfortable for your new baby.
Some important things for your new baby
Honestly, what matters most depends on your preferences, budget and lifestyle. You can live without some of these things if you think you just don't waste money.
If you have had children before, you probably do not need many new baby clothes. Newborn babies quickly grow their clothes, and it can be a waste of money to waste new clothes. You can get a hand-me-down for nephews too, if you want. All you need to do is find pajamas, jerseys, coats, and outdoor clothing. At home, your new baby does not care about old clothes. In fact, it is true that your new baby will probably prefer to wear old clothes better than new ones. Do not forget breastfeeding utensils such as baby utensils, breast pump (if you plan to pump your new baby breast milk at work), baby bottles, cloth nappies, nappies, baby wipes, lotions, shampoos, bath gels, towels, baby blankets, bedding, beaches, carriage, etc.
And don't worry, you will do well. The best thing you can do is get a fair transfer from friends and family.
You are past pregnancy, weight, and birth, and you are now ready to go home and start living with your baby. At home, though, you may feel that you don't know what you're doing!
These tips can help even the most frightened first-time parents feel confident about taking immediate care of the baby.
Getting Help After Birth
Consider getting help at this time, which can be very busy and frustrating. While you are in the hospital, talk to a specialist near you. Most hospitals have a dietitian or nursing specialist who can help you get started nursing or bottle feeding. Nurses are also a great resource to show you how to hold, bottle, change, and care for your baby.
For home-based care, you may want to hire a younger nurse, postpartum doula, or a responsible local girl to help you shortly after birth. Your doctor or hospital can help you get information about home-based care, and may refer you to local health agencies.
Relatives and friends are often keen to help. Even if you disagree with them on some point, do not overreact. But if you do not feel comfortable with visitors or have other concerns, you may feel guilty about setting boundaries for guests.
Newborn Management
If you do not spend much time around newborns, their weaknesses may be frightening. Here are a few basics to keep in mind:
Wash your hands (or use a disinfectant) before handling your baby. Newborns do not yet have strong immune systems, so they are at risk of infection. Make sure everyone in charge of your child has clean hands.
Support your baby's head and neck. Rub the head when carrying your baby and support the head when carrying the baby straight or when placing your baby on the floor.
Never move your baby, whether he is playing or confused. Tremors can cause brain hemorrhage and even death. If you need to wake your baby, do not do it by moving it - instead, pat your baby's feet or gently pat him on the cheek.
