A suction bulb with a blunt tip is more effective than a bulb with a long tapered tip and is less likely to irritate the nasal lining. Thermometer A rectal thermometer is most helpful if your baby becomes sick. The digital thermometers that display the temperature in 30 seconds are worth the few extra dollars. If you buy a glass thermometer, the ones with four color zones are easier to read. For traveling outside the home with your baby, you will need an all-purpose backpack to carry the items that you need to feed your baby and change diapers.
Packs often fit on the back of strollers.
Backpacks are more comfortable and convenient than shoulder bags. During the first 6 months of life you can hold your baby whenever you feed him. However, you will need a highchair when your child can sit unsupported and is eating solid foods. The most important feature of a high chair is a wide base that prevents the high chair from tipping. The tray needs to have a good safety latch.
