Choosing the newborn kit according to the season
You've just met with your midwife or gynecologist, and they've just announced your expected delivery date: it will be a summer baby! You're excited and can already picture yourself holding your little wonder in your arms! But you're wondering which newborn kit to choose if the weather forecast predicts a heatwave or not? It seems easier to plan clothes for baby's birth when it's expected in winter. However, this is just an illusion because even if baby is born in summer, you need to choose warm clothes. Baby will have just come out of your womb and will need a lot of warmth to help regulate their body temperature. This is why in all maternity wards, you are asked to bring a knitted cardigan, a hat for baby's first hours
Take advantage of these first months to adopt skin-to-skin contact in your routines! This practice, widespread around the world, is recommended from the very first minutes of your love's life. It has many benefits for both the child and the parents.
When to pack your hospital bag for maternity?
Leaving for the maternity ward is always an exciting and anticipated moment, but it can also be stressful. That's why we advise preparing the baby's bag and your maternity bag in advance, around your 8th month of pregnancy. While for large families this step has become a formality, when it comes to the first child, the preparation remains meticulous and unfamiliar.
