hi vca, I was in the same boat as you in preparing for our first baby and asked all the 'same' questions.
For linens I went without the bumpers due to the risk of SIDS. I searched and couldn't find nice prints and soft ones. In the end, though I ended up buying material and sewing my own. (not that difficulut actually) I think all a baby needs are some nice soft sheets and a blanket.
Our son tends to kick off his blankets all the time so the next thing are the sleeping bags which I've seen at Mothercare stores called the Gro-bag.
I've searched hi and lo in HK(so it seems) for a mobile that will stimulate my baby. The most practical one and one that my baby now enjoys is by Tiny Love. It plays Mozart and has 4 motions and with 3 sea creatures on it. I've seen it at Toy's R Us and one at O/3 Baby store in TST, and a store called Toys Club in central. (there's a similar one that plays 3 different classical songs, but they ran out of those ones) . There's also an educational store (forgot the name) in Lee Garden's in CWB that sells it.
Good luck in your preparation for your baby and have lots of fun!  |
