↪ What to take with you (list of things)

Bring several diapers to your doctor's appointment . The pediatrician will have to repeatedly transfer the baby (from the changing table to the stadiometer, scales and back). Holding the baby with one hand and spreading the diaper with the other is not very convenient. What if you need to visit another doctor later? In this case, if there is only one diaper, you will have to be careful not to confuse the clean side and the side that was in contact with different, not always sterile, surfaces. And it’s easy to drop a diaper in the bustle of reception.

So make your life easier - grab 3-4 pieces, which you can then simply put in your bag without thinking about how to fold them correctly or spread them out again.

It is better to take flannel , because calico diapers are too thin, the child can feel the coldness of the surface through them and be nervous because of this.

In addition to spare diapers, bring a change of clothes for the baby: children have a habit of spitting up at the wrong time, and diapers sometimes leak.

And don't forget:

  • the child’s medical policy or a copy thereof,
  • wet and dry wipes,
  • diapers (the child is undressed during examination, but there is no need to re-put on an already wet diaper),
  • bottles
