Many women experience the instinct to nest

The further along you are in pregnancy, the more concretely you begin to feel the new member of your family. Many pregnant women feel the urge to nest by the third tri- mester and they begin to make preparations for the baby. Small babies don’t need a lot of material things around them. Warmth, sleep, care and nutrition will be enough for a long time. It’s easier to work out what you need to get for your baby if you think about the kind of life your family wants to live with the new arrival: will the baby sleep in their own cot or with you, will you breastfeed or bottle-feed, and will you use disposable or reusable nap- pies? This will also help you to make your own choices.

T I P : There is a handy list at the back of this guide to help you work out what you need to buy.
