- Rubbing alcohol and Qtips for newborn cord care (before the “stump” falls off)
- Baby wash
- Baby Lotion
- 2 or 3 Fluffy, absorbent hooded towels
- Baby sized washcloths
- Large sink (the kitchen sink works well!), lay prefold diapers in bottom to prevent slipping
- When baby’s ready for the bathtub, get a non-slip tub liner and a few toys
- Terry robe for the parent who is going to dry the wet baby off!
