Baby shower list: check out two list options to organize

One of the most enjoyable parts of pregnancy is arranging the baby’s trousseau. As this phase demands a lot of expenses, the baby shower list is an excellent opportunity to receive that little help from friends and family, in addition to strengthening ties. To help you choose the products you need, check out two list options: one basic and one complete.

Basic baby shower list

You can choose to have a simple baby shower, a more intimate event with few guests. Or maybe you prefer to focus on the most commonly used and routine products. For these cases, the list below is concentrated on the most important items.

diapers

• Cloth diapers
• RN disposable diapers
• Disposable Diapers Size P
• Disposable Diapers Size L

Hygiene

• Cotton
• wet wipe
• diaper rash ointment
• Nasal aspirator
• cotton swabs
• Liquid or bar soap
• Baby scissors and nail file
• diaper towels
• hooded towels

day by day

• swaddling clothes
• teether
• food dishes
• food cutlery
• bibs
• Cups with anti-leakage lid of different sizes
• baby book

Breast-feeding

• nipple fissure cream
• Breast pads
• Baby bottles of different sizes
• Baby bottle cleaning brush

Ask guests to prioritize products without dyes, dermatologically tested and suitable for babies. In the case of fabrics, the preference is for cotton pieces. In addition, it is recommended to order at least two different brands of disposable diapers, in case the baby is allergic to any of them.

Choose a way to keep the list up to date and accessible to guests to avoid duplicate products. It’s also a good idea to go easy on the demands: you don’t want any guests feeling embarrassed. Ordering a package of diapers plus one of the products on the list is the most used suggestion and it usually works.

That’s a lot to buy and plan! After preparing your baby shower list, count on the help of friends and relatives to organize yourself in time, reduce expenses and gather loved ones in an event of much love. To thank guests for attending the party, see beautiful baby shower favor ideas!
