Initial equipment
What initial equipment do I need for my baby?
In retail stores, you can find countless cute to useful items in children's departments
- in all imaginable colors and desired motifs.
These lead first to numerous calls of enthusiasm and then directly to the question
of what you actually need for your baby from this overwhelming range of products.
As a little help I have compiled my recommendations for the initial equipment
based on my practical experience. You can also download them as a practical list to print out
and take them with you on your shopping trip!
