Setting Up The Nursery And Shopping For Baby Essentials

[@pecansquirrel3489]

Jazz, your little blessing is part of you, part of your life. Share and talk about baby as often as you like. Anyone here, watching your videos are here because we just love to visit with you. Every change you go through, we are here because you’ve become a friend. I for one will be here no matter what you post! Happy New Year!

[@tasha4052]

Yes!! I was gonna say this too but forgot! 😂 I totally agree though ❤

[@19Alice96]

I'm loving the pregnancy journey, actually really happy she's pregnant(since she was trying for ages) and love hearing about it🤷‍♀️

[@kristenm9698]

I am a childless person, but have friends with kiddos. One thing I remember them talking about is making sure your sofa can be cleaned easily. So you can take off seat covers and put them in the wash, even back pillows. If the child spits up etc you want to be able to clean it without a hassle.

[@menap1337]

As a mum of 3 I second this. Especially when they get a little older. That quick dash to the loo could result in permanent chocolate ganache stain on the couch (not that I am speaking from experience or anything).

[@dawn5227]

More important when they are toddlers/children, babies are actually pretty clean.

[@lucyDurand2451]

Leather all the way

[@Bexinmo]

Jazz, I know we don't know each other, but knowing what you have gone through, I am so overjoyed for you right now. I am just an old lady (nearly 50) who loves your content, and to see you so excited and happy is just a joy.

[@angelagleave2183]

Sudocrem is worth every penny in my opinion. I have 4 children and I used it every nappy change even if it was only a wet nappy and none of mine ever got a rash. Wipe all around front and back with sensitive wipes, add a thin layer of Sudocrem all around and clean nappy. Job done. Happy baby 😊

[@alberttetley]

Thank you for making us a part of this joyous time for you and Nick. We love hearing about your baby and your plans.

[@dizzyjessd]

For colours I typically buy yellows and greens for a baby that’s a surprise ❤ Also sleepers are easier with zips than poppers 😂 x

[@melon4966]

Yesss zips are a life saver 😂

[@cshark0301]

YES

[@amanda2421]

Yes, zippers are a must!

[@jessicamontgomery8976]

be careful buying diapers ahead of time wothout keeping receipts some can have reactions to certain brands

[@amysettle85]

We love hearing about baby we love seeing you and Nick becoming parents.

[@DJharris512]

I had really bad sciatica pain with both my pregnancies and I found sitting on a yoga/exercise ball helped so much!

[@Jstreamssr]

You and Nick are two of the most deserving people on the planet and you''re both loved and cared for by many from all over!! Belated Happy New Year!!

[@evaisaiahhall]

I just love you guys and listening to you it's just "diddy"!!!

[@Robin2152]

Blessings to your family. It is so nice to see the two of you going through this wonderful time.

[@beverleyjane2951]

I love these videos, watching the smiles on your faces. Thankyou for taking us on this journey with you ❤

[@meganmcnab6509]

The Aldi nappies and water wipes are one of the best on the market (and reallyyy affordable too)!! Also the MAM dummies are great 😊 (also the bottles) How exciting ❤❤ xxxx

[@floshepherd2419]

I actually cannot express how excited I am for you to have your gorgeous little bubba.. I could cry 😭😭

[@jesicarios2171]

One of the best advise I have seen is to no stress to much about what you might need bc now more then ever we can get so much delivered in a mater of days or even hours.

[@SamijaneGilbert]

I HIGHLY recommend getting EWAN the SHEEP!! Honestly the best thing I had for my babies! He plays white noise, womb sounds and a lullaby. Plus he’s an adorable sheep plush to! Xx

[@cassthomas9115]

Jaz, your excitement is infectious! My first baby is very nearly 10 now, but you’re bringing back memories of cute baby grows and teeny tiny baby socks; and it’s making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside 🥰🥰🥰 You guys are going to be amazing x

[@ashleyshurte5277]

A sound machine! It is a life saver!

[@sophiaellis2387]

Mummy here, you end up over buying of literally everything. I’ve got a 3 month old and honestly you’ll be given so much stuff from friends, family etc so honestly do not stress! It’ll all come together before baby’s here. Your doing amazing ❤❤ just enjoy this time before baby’s here

[@mahisinghvi_]

I am so excited for the baby ! You guys are gonna be the best parents I know for sure ❤

[@Aurakayy]

Awww this is so adorable to see ❤. You both deserve this happiness, I can only imagine how exciting this must be. Also bump looks like a typical boy bump right now! 🥰. Can’t wait to see you both as Mama and Papa, you’ll both be the best parents. Sending lots of love, hugs and good wishes x

[@Lwolff8912]

Jazz, we love going on this journey with you! Thank you.

[@brandielawrence3783]

Jazzy , I am so excited and happy for you both. You deserve the world. You are so kind and caring. I cannot wait to see you as a mum.

[@SD-xt9gu]

I AM SO OVERJOYED FOR YOU GUYS!! The night light, along with everything else is perfect. The night light can be used when you have a toddler doing potty training at night. Enjoy every moment of this experience and don't stress about anything. It will always work out in the end....God bless your growing family! 🙏🏾❤

[@natashacuvelier7185]

A little temp egg for the bedroom so it tells you the correct temperature 🥰 so excited for you both! Cxc

[@carmenbosch3261]

Have never been this early. You're absolutely beautiful Jazz, and I know you are going to be the best mom to your little bundle of joy. Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Love all the way from South Africa❤

[@suek.1507]

I am so happy for the two of you and enjoy your channel.

[@brittnieslate822]

Sitting here pumping while my 3 year old and 5 month old are taking a nap and my baby fever is horrible right now😭 I'm so happy for you guys❤️❤️

[@ZoeJoycex]

OMG the pregnancy leg cramps, they were INTENSE! the amount of times I had to shoot out of bed with them and my other half was panicking with what the hell was going on in the middle of the night 😅 so excited for you both for the rest of your pregnancy/baby's arrival!

[@Peace-life93]

You can honestly never have too much sudocrem!!! It is absolutely magic!

[@rushdamahmood5734]

“Google is talking to me” Pure stress and excitement at the same time 🥰Absolutely loving this Jazzy

[@ItaliaInTheWonderland]

I don't know if it's any usefull but.... I remember that as a kid I had wallpaper at front of my bed with a fairy tale-ish scenery, was nice to look at it before sleep.😁 I think u could rethink what u and your partner liked as a child in your room, what brings you good memories and do something simmilar to the child's room.🥰

[@Robyn_Anne]

Next! Next is amazing for babygrows... the only thing I would say is also look in their boy section, alot of those are actually neutral but more colourful! Primark is actually really good and reasonably priced!

[@samanthawatts8147]

We went pale yellow, white and mint. It worked for my 3, my niece and a friends unexpected miracle. A lot was home made. X

[@amandainthegarden]

So very excited for you both!! You and Nick are going to be wonderful parents. I would say go ahead and get a noise maker. They help your little one get used to noise so they'll be able to sleep anywhere, and this also allows you the freedom to make noise while they're napping/sleeping. I used classical music for my 4, and they still get sleepy when they hear it and they're all in their 20's 😂 Again, congratulations!! ❤

[@hayleykitty]

Aww this made me so happy, I LOVED setting up my baby's nursery! I used to just go in there all the time and look through all her little things, and imagine her being in my arms 🥰 She's 13 months old now and an absolute delight, this video has made me want another one! Can't wait to meet your little one ❤

[@taniasprout7102]

Happy New Year to you, Nick and the Babe!

[@soundasleep7816]

Not sure if I missed it in the blog but I would also grab some first size and tiny baby vests and sleep suits. A pack of each should be enough. Just in case baby is little. Mine ended up being in tiny baby for the first few weeks x maybe also a nose Frida. You’ll either love it or hate it. We loved it. It worked so much better than the bulb ones

[@emmajofenton]

Massive happy new year to you and nick. I can't wait to see you both meet you're little one xoxo

[@suzanneosborne2087]

Best thing I did was starting way early buying diapers, a few packs of newborn but mostly larger ones really saved us from emergency diaper run, a playpen is very useful, and teething rings you put in the freezer

[@Squirrino]

I swear by Bonds for sleepsuits. They last forever, they have zips and optional feet and hand mits on the tiny sizes. They're not the cheapest, but they're incredible

[@alexahallum9053]

green is supposed to be really calming for babies.

[@bannerohana5076]

They also used to bathe babies straight away but obv depends on the person but I waited till they stopped peeling they dry up and it all falls off then bathe them because it helps their natural moisture come back in their skin. X

[@tasha4052]

When yall were laughing when removing the sticky things from the wall, I laughed so hard that I was crying! It absolutely cracked me up! 😂 Try not to get overwhelmed, but I know it's hard because it IS a lot! I love that you are a list maker because I am too lol. It really does help, though! Just start with the absolute most important items, then go from there. I'm so very excited for yall & can't wait to watch yall be the best parents ever! ❤

[@jazminepratt2995]

I highly recommend the lumi white noise machines on Aldi! Both of my daughters have slept amazing with them!

[@skipper7216]

For leg cramps drink some chocolate milk or pickle juice...helps with the cramping and works fairly quickly.

[@purplehair7224]

I'm so excited for you guys! Don't forget, gentle detergent for the laundry, and wash everything!

[@kasytiealexis9235]

I think the cutest colorful neutral color is yellow! Or a minty green!

[@mrs.imranq7778]

As soon as you showed your first bought babygrow I and hubby guessed it instantly," It's Nick's choice"

[@aimeetelford90]

Colourful - next was a favorite - but I also really loved Newbie ❤️❤️

[@jennielloyd8811]

Happy New Year guys, Mint green and yellow, red, navy and dark mauve colours are great for both boys and girls to wear, also the philips avent bottles aren't that good I had them for my last baby and they kept leaking no matter how tight I put the lid on MAM bottles are the best I've ever used you can take them completely apart to clean them x

[@StephWalter-j6h]

Make sure you don't stock up too much on wipes and nappies and to begin with get smaller sized packs from different brands to find what works for you my two kids were different xx

[@sandygroenendyk5141]

That s the coolest nighlite. It might be good for me. Lol! Baby things are just the cutest! I laughed so hard with the two of you removing the sticky tabs off the wall. I hate doing that, too! But, yeah, Nicks laugh is infectious. I love hearing him laugh! Have a great New Year. It will be very exciting for you both.

[@bellaboo208]

Im so very Happy for you and nick You will make great mum and dad this baby will be so much loved by everyone xxxx congratulations to you both xx

[@bethinabox1282]

Highly recommend the Mam dummies ( we also used the bottles) - great as you can sterilise in the microwave! Sudocrem, bepanthen and Calpol are all we have used 🙌🏻

[@melon4966]

Loved mam stuff only one my daughter liked

[@charlenewright8969]

Matalan have some lovely colourful babygrows xx

[@leyasargeant8168]

So exciting!!! Can't wait to watch the rest of this!

[@tonigreenaway]

I found some bright orange and turquoise blankets and bits when I had my daughter, I hope you are able to find some colours you like too. One thing I found helpful with both of mine was tea towels. Muslins are great, but tea towels are thicker and much better for cleaning up the inevitable spitup. Nursing pillows are helpful for feeding, it helps with support 😊 I had both washable and disposable breast pads, they each have merit for different situations. Disposable are great when out. I'm loving all your updates, and seeing how excited you both are 🥰

[@annabrown3337]

Had a nice yellow and green set front asda

[@sharonmarie6775]

So very happy for you and nick !! I know this is gonna sound crazy but to help with leg cramps when sleeping try putting a bar of soap under your fitted sheet it helped me when i was pregnant.

[@louisethedogswassits4613]

Steriliser tablets I believe Milton is the brand name is 1 thing I've noticed missing and sudocreme. Bepanthan is good for bad rashes but sudocreme is better for minor issues. Don't stress too much you won't use half of what you buy as they grow too quick. Your first outfit is adorable and your doing amazing. Really enjoying watching your journey xxx

[@amysettle85]

Oh that's such a cute night light

[@jessyanne]

lol nick when he was watching you take the hooks off "come here its doesn't hurt" next thing ouch gets your heart racing 🤣 I carnt have children as I had a hysterectomy 3 years ago due to endometriosis but watching your videos makes me see you and nick are going to be amazing parents 💜

[@melon4966]

Has it helped you i also have endometriosis and struggling just want it gone 😔

[@clairelouise4227]

Red light is brilliant for night time feeding and changing i ised one for my son and it was best thing ever my midwife recommended it to me

[@colleenrichardson5339]

nick is absolutely hilarious!!! 😂 ❤❤

[@justanotherperson745]

So so happy for you and Nick, Jazz. Sending lots of love from South Africa🤗😊😁

[@gemmawhiting6137]

Lansinoh cream for the nips is amazing if breastfeeding. Also metanium nappy cream is amazing for nappy rash but also so good if you have stitches etc xxx

[@JackieCarv]

Metanium is hands down the best bum cream we used

[@hannahj648]

@@JackieCarv the yellow metanium has been discontinued! they do an everyday barrier cream though

[@JackieCarv]

@ Oh no what did they do that for! It was the best nappy cream out there.

[@Dexy83]

I remember an earlier video that you said you didn't want to do the nursery until after the baby was born. I told my bff about that and she started watching your vids. 😊 Glad you changed your mind. I vote ALL the baby vlogs you want! We're here for them all! ❤

[@amandarawsthorne9003]

I second this my eldest is 24 and youngest just turned 18. Makes me bruddy watching the vlogs. Thank you for sharing. Love watching x

[@aliciamandt4573]

As a mom of three...I never used nursing bras...I did sports bras. It was cmofy, they streched and had room when I was full. Very supportive.

[@Ashley0905]

Hey!. So excited for you guys! You should look into getting some "gripe water".... it's to help with a gasy colicky baby. It was an awesome recommendation from my son's pediatrician when he was a newborn, and extremely colicky. I give it to everyone new mom. Just incase. ❤

[@debthurston-nd4ln]

I am so happy for you and Nick! I always look forward to seeing your videos..😊

[@izzyhammond6196]

Ahh I'm so excited to watch! Cannot wait your you and nick to meet your little one❤

[@frizzyizzy8150]

I’m so soo sooo sooo happy for you, you and Nick are going to be the best parents 🙊🙈 congrats beautiful ❤❤❤

[@erikaiek]

Pacifier clips... They tend to spit out those little things all the time. The clips will prevent it from falling on the ground all the time 😊

[@smashygilmore]

Just some more suggestions that we found incredibly helpful. Instead of using the nappy rash cream etc I swear by just using cornflour that you dip a cotton ball in and just use that on the rash and it literally dries it out and gets rid of it within a day. The cream I found wasn’t nearly as effective. I also recommend using 100% bamboo wipes for cleaning up their poos instead of using disposable wipes. I know reusing it sounds gross but I honestly found that it worked so much better than the disposable wipes. I’d use like 4 wipes if there was a really messy nappy and the one bamboo wipe cleaned it all up. Also, I found cloth nappies best but totally understand if you just want to use disposable

[@katiebeswick6645]

Ahh Nick I had a glow worm too. Loved that little guy ❤

[@jillmissig9670]

Happy New Year Jazzy and Nick!😊

[@natashanaranjo1755]

So exciting!!! Congratulations again!!! ❤🎉

[@Lauramegan1212]

I would try next or M&S for more colourful clothing. I’ve seen greens, yellow and orange sets. Hope that helps

[@misskarma9073]

Not sure if you have one already, but a white noise machine! I got a super cheap one off amazon and its an absolute god send for getting my son sleeping well, especially in the early days as it helped him sleep through any noises. It also works as a great sleep association for sleep training when the baby is older! I also recommend getting more burp cloths than you think you will need! We bought a bunch of white cotton hand towels and wash cloths and they worked especially well, since we had a refluxy baby, and didn't have a lot of time to constantly wash his burp cloths. :)

[@ItsAMbutyoutubechangedmyname]

So excited for this new life you are going to start soon when baby is here ❤ My one tip that I wish I would have known with my first is that onesies are the best when they have a messy poopy you do have to pull it over the head they are ment to be able to slide of that’s why the cut/seam on the neck part when someone told me that when I was expecting number two my mind was blown away 😂

[@quiltea56]

So excited for you both! What you called a "dummy" we always called them a "Binky." I am from the USA so we have different names for things. Nick my kids love their glow worms also. It has been so much fun watching you both go through this together. I can see so how much you already love this little miracle. You are going to be amazing parents. Hugs and blessings.

[@Jeanette_B_Andersen]

We have that exact babygrow. It was my son’s first outfit!😍

[@Katie-ht2tx]

im so happy for u guys 💕

[@kirstymacnamara8574]

Tip from a mum of two. Make sure you have some clothes for bub that are bigger than newborn. 0-3 months is good.

[@beautiesfoodies8790]

And also a few premie sizes just in case. You won't need a lot of those if you do need that size.

[@emlafortune800]

A sound machine for white noise ! Also, a breast pump. You don't necessarily need an electric big pump unless you plan on storing some for your freezer, but at least a hand pump to get you through the first bit of your milk production, for relief !

[@CasCrowly135]

Jazzy, I'm not sure if they're available in the UK, but here in Australia we have Bonds grow suits, they're colourful and vibrant while also being gender neutral, and best if all, you can get matching adult ones.

[@shivovals]

Next online is amazing for super cute and brightly coloured babygrows. They do the standard pink/blue or beige obviously but so many that could be for any baby ❤❤❤

[@texaskatydid1081]

Look for yellow, green, or orange baby grows. Also organic cotton will be softer for clothes and nursing pads.

[@stephaniewarner8254]

Frugi and Kite clothing do lots of colourful and unisex outfits. Their stuff is really good quality, too. Xx

[@liannfoster5467]

I 100% recommend owlet ❤

[@liannfoster5467]

Have you looked I next?? They pretty good at natural selections xx

[@mariazlatanova2336]

HI, from Bulgaria. For the leg cramps, buy magnesium oil or magnesium gel and massage the legs. This was the one thing that saved me trough my two pregnancies.

[@jamieleighcarradice8822]

Try asda or matalan for the sleepsuits xx

[@dndrusso]

I may have missed it but you absolutely need a diaper bag or two or three 😊 keep them stocked. I know of what I speak. Back up clothes, wipes, diapers, nursing gear etc. They will double as your purse so no need to carry both. Also a nursing pillow will make your life so much easier. Wishing you both all the best. ❤

[@jessicatfoulkrod6341]

I recommend a backpack diaper bag. I frees up your both your hands

[@Dg023]

Omg this is gonna be so fun! Really happy for you! 💕

[@cdutcher4014]

My baby is 8 months old now but I had horrible acid reflux at the end of my pregnancy to the point that I couldn’t even sleep. Thankfully my doctor prescribed me a medication and it helped a lot!! Also, for baby zippy pjs, try littleoneshopco, little sleepies, bums and roses and kyte baby! Lots of different patterns ☺️

[@jenniewilde7019]

Poo narmies are a thing! Just always ensure a change of clothes and plenty of cleaning nappy supplies are nearby. 😅 you'll be glad you did. (Although some people have managed to toilet train babies from day one but it is a task in itself. And a potty training trick for future reference sit them kn potty in the nappy and unfasten it catches everything) so happy for you both❤
