Are you about to be a new parent? Parenting does not come with manuals and we all learn from our mistakes. However, we also pay for some mistakes. There are 7 things a baby needs. Seven essential things that he or she should have and I am going to tell you about them.
7. Formula or breast milk

I will be honest with you – I never breast fed. I mean, I tried to, but the nurse who was helping kept complaining about my breast being too big for the baby to latch hold. Okay, that is embarrassing to tell you, but I decided to just start the baby on formula and bottles. This was actually great, because then, I knew the baby was being fed and I could see how much she drank. Note: I don’t need comments telling me that breastfeeding is better. *Winks*
6. Diaper!
Oh goodness! Who invented diapers? Thank you! Could you imagine how it would be if the baby did not have a diaper? Okay, we’re not even going to get into that mess.
5. Clean clothes

Come on, after you feed the baby and food got on his or her clothes, don’t just leave it there. Either clean it off or get clean clothes. Don’t make the baby sleep that way. I know, this sounds like a strange tip, but some people out there actually do this. There are bad parents out there…
