Don't overbuy new born size items


Based on my experience, do not over stock on the new born size items as the most you will use is 1 month or the most up to 1.5 months.

Items such as new born (NB) diaper..., 1 pack is usually sufficient. Try to get 1 S Size to spare if you are afraid to use up all the NB size during the confinement period.
New born clothings, just get 2-3 sets is enough as you might get some from the gift hampers from your friends or relatives. Spread out the buying to zero-6 months, 6-12 months clothings, as different brand produces different dimensions for the baby clothes. Also, different babies have different body frame, some might be small while some slightly bigger. So, if you buy bigger clothing size, the baby could wear a longer period of time.

Baby toiletries item like baby shampoo, baby powder, lotion, body wash etc.. don't buy big bottles as you might not know which one is suitable for your baby yet. You might also get some free samples, use those first before buying more.

That's my two cents about spending wisely for new born babies ... To 1st time parents, enjoy baby shopping spree.

You will notice that every baby items are so cute & adorable (tempted to buy all.? ... hehehe...); do spend wisely... so that you won't need to store new item without even using them :)
