No matter what kind of birth experience you have, you will no doubt want to take a shower and freshen up after the delivery. Gently clean your hair and body with Super Sensitive Shampoo & Bodywash. California Baby’s extremely mild, no fragrance formula will not interfere with a new mom’s scent or irritate a new baby who cannot tolerate fragrance. Soften your skin with Bodymilk Extra Mild Lotion from Little Twig. This fragrance-free organic lotion contains shea-butter to nourish dry skin, and is perfect for soothing your newborn baby’s sensitive skin.
After the birth, a neo-natal nurse will usually teach new parents how to fold a square blanket into a triangle for easy swaddling. With a Swanky Swaddler blanket, you will be able to wrap your baby with ease. This plush cotton blanket is designed in the shape of a triangle to take the guess work out of swaddling, an ancient art to soothe a baby and mimic the feeling of the womb. Don’t forget the adorable matching Swanky Hat.
Even though most hospitals provide blankets and hats for newborns, new parents might want to pack a special blanket. When family and friends come to see (and photograph) the new baby, you’ll enjoy wrapping your precious infant in a super soft Organic Zoo Blanket, from Austrian designer David Fussenegger, that features whimsical animals on natural 100% Organic Cotton. The neutral colors on this luxurious blanket make it ideal for parents who choose not to know the gender of their baby before the delivery. Keep baby’s pacifier close by with a Butterfly Pacifier Clip, featuring multi-colored Swarovski Crystal butterflies spaced between sterling silver plated butterflies. This elegant, stylish clip attaches the pacifier to the baby’s clothing, bib, or blanket.
