I use graco pack and play with reversible napper and changer. We got it from a shop in abuja for 55k. But on konga and Jumia, it's about 10k cheaper. Think I saw it for 45k once but u can check sha

For the napper, my son outgrew it in 3weeks! He grew taller than the napper so we stopped using it. Other than that, he loved to sleep in it every afternoon and we were usually tempted to leave him there at night. 

Since our room is small, we move the cot out to the living room in the morning, and we move it back to the room at night. We got the pack and play because we can easily pack it and travel with it (dh and I intend to travel a lot this new year)

For the cot itself, we recently discovered that our son didn't like it because it's hard. So I added layers upon layers of bedsheets and his extra blankets to make it soft and he sleeps better in there presently (I tuked them in to avoid him pulling them out when he's fussy)

As for the clothes, ma'am alphahandmaiden has said it all!
I didn't buy any new born size
But we got quite a good number of new born sized clothes as gifts and guess what! Some of them didn't size my son and some he outgrew in a few days!!! So be careful when buying newborn sizes

We also got a good number of 0-3months sizes and those ones fit well. He only outgrew one (it was looking quite small sha)

I bought only 3-6months and 6-9months size of clothes basically because I knew he would be going nowhere in the first 3 months. Though I have a few 0-3months that are his perfect size (he wears those ones when we go for immunization.....though I mostly just wear him bodysuit and cover him up with a flannel)

I have more than 10 bodysuits and more than 10 sleepsuits
I have about 10 shirts/polos/sleeveless tops and maybe 7 trousers

About 20 washcloths (most were gifts)
10 socks 
Maybe 6 mittens (just like ma'am alpha said, forget mittens. They don't stay on for long)
I have 7 bibs. I barely use them anyway and I wash every day. But there's no harm in having a lot just like ma'am alpha said. 

I have about 7 caps which I don't use because Abuja heat can deep fry chicken and my son sweats a lot. 

I've attached a photo of the cot I have

Side note - I love the changer cos it's so easy to change his diaper there. If poo stains it, you can clean easily with wipes

We are going to take out the napper and changer so he can use the cot bed fully

I was told you don't add an extra mattress to the cot but I don't know sha. Me I might add later when he's older

@Ummhalimah @jazzyjazz i take God beg una make una n let congy do me oh. DH dey very far from me across the sea (offshore) . All this style u are sharing there is God . Virgin Mary jazzyjazz how is baby Ilan?

realdentist:
Thank u ummhalimah and jazzyjazz. Oya chop Valentine kiss.
Ummhalimah pls reduce stress o. So that baby can bake well pls

hunniesuzie:
Thanks for this. At least I'm a bit more confident in what I bought now. I also have the option of him sleeping in our bed cos of feeding during the first few weeks so I got my carpenter to build a bed with a small co-sleeping section (DH refused to share bed with LO but he agreed to this one. Lol)

ummhalimah:


Kneel on a pillow on the floor while resting your elbows on the tip of your bed, leboo can enter from the back that way. Or you can kneel on the tip of your bed while he enters from behind yle standing if he's tall! Hope this helps

ummhalimah:
Good day mamas in the house, team March how una dey o. Am 35 weeks and I have been having painful contractions and back pain that goes away only when I lie down. I have been stressing a lot lately due to work and my toddler isn't helping too. I hope this baby stays put till around 38weeks o. Amen. Safe delivery to all pregnant mamas and baby dust to GTC.
