What to Pack for Childbirth - Best Tips for Your Hospital Bag!

As childbirth approaches, many wonder what to pack in their hospital bag. In addition to baby essentials, you'll need your personal hygiene items for the hospital, such as a toothbrush, deodorant, and hair care products – don't forget lip balm!

The maternity ward will provide you with a nightgown, bathrobe, slippers, disposable underwear, and disposable pads for postpartum bleeding. For those who use menstrual underwear, high-waisted or boyshort styles are popular for postpartum bleeding, and overnight reusable pads are also a reliable choice. You don't have to sacrifice comfort; you're allowed to wear your own relaxed, favorite clothes on the ward. Soft leggings, your own wool socks, and a nursing nightgown can help you feel comfortable and at home. In the early days of breastfeeding, nipples are often sore, so it's wise to treat yourself to soft and skin-friendly nursing pads. The hospital's mechanical air conditioning can feel chilly, and a merino wool scarf is a wonderful extra layer of warmth for both mom and baby.

What Does the Baby Need?

During pregnancy, many questions arise about what a little one needs in the first few weeks. A Zero Waste mindset is a good starting point when preparing for a baby, as a newborn's basic needs are sleep, food, warmth, cleanliness, and security. It's best to make purchases only as needed, and you'll find carefully selected and practical, basic necessities from us.

Baby clothes should be easy to put on and, above all, made from high-quality, soft materials. We recommend favoring natural fibers and certified, scientifically proven safe materials when choosing clothing. Soft reusable cotton pads can clean both the baby's eyes and delicate skin folds, and washable cotton pads can also be used later for removing eye makeup! A diaper changing pad that fits in your changing bag is handy at home and when traveling, and it can later be used as a sitting mat for outings or extra mattress protection. Modern, skin-friendly reusable diapers are easy to use, and if the idea of full-time reusable diapering feels challenging, try using both disposable and reusable options side-by-side. For household chores, a baby carrier frees up your hands, providing the baby with much-needed warmth and a sense of security.

What Kinds of Diapers and Accessories Do I Need?

A baby needs to be changed many times a day. By incorporating reusable nappies into your daily routine, you make a responsible choice for the environment while saving money. You can download the Myllymuksut diaper guide here to learn about reusable diapers and other reusable diaper accessories. Even one reusable diaper a day is a step towards a more ecological lifestyle. A waterproof diaper bag can be used after diapering, for example, as a swim bag for a schoolchild, keeping the rest of the backpack dry.

Babywearing - Choose the Right Carrier for Everyday Help and Support for Closeness

Various baby carriers make everyday life easier, especially when the baby needs a lot of closeness. Carrying in a baby wrap mimics swaddling and can ease the fussiness of a colicky baby. Burping after feedings while in a baby wrap or carrier reduces pressure on a swollen stomach and brings relief to the baby. When the baby falls asleep in the carrier, the parent can also safely nap in an upright position, for example, in a rocking chair, to catch up on sleep debt. A baby wrap can free up both hands for household chores or the needs of siblings. Comprehensive information on babywearing can be found on the Kantoliinayhdistys (Babywearing Association) website.

Breastfeeding Supplies to Make Everyday Life Easier

As baby life begins, breastfeeding moments can be both peaceful and practical. With the right products, you can integrate breastfeeding into your smooth daily routine. Nursing clothes made from pleasant materials fit well and feel good to wear. A nursing shirt allows you to breastfeed discreetly outside the home when the baby needs nourishment. Washable nursing pads offer soft protection and stay in place without irritating sensitive skin. They don't stick to sore nipples but remain comfortable all day. Thin but absorbent nursing pads are discreet and keep you feeling fresh and dry. For the prevention and treatment of mastitis, we recommend merino wool, teardrop-shaped nursing pads – a natural and warm option to support the mother's well-being.

Baby Sleeping Bags and Baby Clothes

Sleeping bags are one of the most beloved necessities of baby life. The swaddle-like sense of security calms the little one to sleep and helps them sleep more soundly. A soft and warm sleeping bag keeps the baby at a comfortable temperature all night, and you don't have to worry about the baby kicking out the blanket. The temperature stays consistent in a sleeping bag, which creates security, helping a restless sleeper calm down.

A small baby's skin is sensitive and needs only the best: safe, chemical-free, and high-quality fabrics that breathe and feel soft every day. It's wise to choose baby clothes carefully. Natural materials like silky TENCEL™ or breathable merino wool soothe delicate skin and make dressing effortless.

Explore our colorful selection of children's clothing, where you'll find a wide range of natural fiber and chemical-free children's clothes for the smallest members of the family. Merino wool clothes for cool weather are winter classics, and linen clothes for summer are suitable for both special occasions and everyday wear.
