Mama Carrying Baby
Are you a new mama eagerly waiting for the arrival of your little one? We’ve been there! And we know that excitement can sometimes make you feel overwhelmed, especially when you don’t know where to start preparing for the life-changing day. When you have countless options, it’s harder to zoom in on essentials and you’ll end up buying things you actually don’t need.
But don’t fret. Here’s a truly essential list that will help you get started. The best part? You’re getting them at huge discounted prices –only during the edamama new mama sale. We got you, mama!
The only outfits you need
You don’t need plenty of fancy clothes that your baby will just immediately outgrow. Go for durable white clothes so you could immediately spot ants or any dirt on your baby.
You should invest in several sets of reliable side-tie clothes, pajamas, and mittens, plus a receiving blanket with hood to comfortably wrap your newborn. They’re easy to put on and remove, and the new, sleep-deprived mamas won’t have a hard time during those frequent diaper and clothes changes.
Comfy casuals are also a must in your newborn’s wardrobe. Rompers made of breathable cotton keep them wrapped just right. Use SNMSBEAN for 30% off bean products, with a minimum spend of P1,000
Newborns will also need swaddles; apart from making them feel warm, this also helps your little one adjust to life outside the womb with its snug feel.
Meanwhile, for those hospital checkups, you can bundle up your baby with age-appropriate jackets or cover them with the nursing and multipurpose cover.
Towels and washcloths, and more washcloths
For wiping tears, saliva, and milk, or wiping dry baby bums, and for those tender baths, you’ll need dozens of washcloths for your newborn. It’s an environment-friendly and baby-safe option. It lasts longer, and those made of soft cotton and bamboo won’t harm sensitive skin. You’ll need plenty so expect frequent laundry– choose a mild laundry detergent that really cleans.
For fun bath times, choose absorbent towels so your newborn is kept warm.
Feeding bottles
Avoid nipple confusion early on by choosing teats that mimic breastfeeding. You may also choose sets that offer the same technology.

Grooming kits, toiletries, diapers
It makes for a perfect gift (add it up here if you want a gift registry) and a good purchase too. Good grooming kits can last for years and are essential for cleaning your baby’s nails, brushing those cute hair, and more!
For toiletries, pick the ones created by trusted brands. While you have yet to find out how sensitive your baby’s skin would be, you can opt for gentle cleaners and bathing needs that have always been recommended by health experts.
You’ll also need plenty (and we really mean plenty) of newborn diapers. You may or may not buy in bulk, but it would be wise to check out product reviews and fellow mom recommendations before settling into just one diaper brand. It’s really trial and error, so you may try different brands and eventually find what works best for you and your baby.
PS. Keep those baby essentials and diapers in stylish and practical diaper bags.
Safe sleep space
Whether you intend to co-sleep or not, you have plenty of cribs and playard options. If you want your baby close by (but safely away from adults), get a bed nest or you can splurge in a crib that converts to a toddler bed when needed.
Breastfeeding and other essentials for mama
If you will opt to breastfeed, you’ll need Haakaa to catch your letdown and not waste any drop of liquid gold. Help your body produce more milk too with Malunggay goodies, which come in tea, juice, capsule or cookie forms.
You may also aid your body to postpartum recovery with the highly recommended Wink postpartum binder– perfect for Cesarean or normal delivery moms who want to help their uterus return to its pre-baby size faster.
