3. Extra onesie/babygro/snapsuit
4 .A change of baby clothes just in case
5. A burp cloth/ cloth diaper. If baby is a proficient droller or is prone to spitting up or having diaper blowouts, you’ll know to bring more burp cloths and changes of diapers and clothes.
6. Diaper cream or Vaseline or whatever you use when changing baby
7. Extra blanket. if you take your baby to doctor’s appointment make sure you bring a nice warm blanket, usually they will want to strip baby down to weigh her and then you have to wait to see the doctor, it’s easier to just wrap her up in a warm blanket then to dress her again after weighing and then undress her again for the doctor to check her out.
8. Formula and bottles. If you are bottle feeding then you need it.
Optional items:

Where to find great diaper bags for less
Most department stores have a wide variety of inexpensive baby diaper bags. There are all types. You can get bags geared toward boys or girls or you can just get generic diaper bags that could be used for either.
Specialty stores carry baby diaper bags also. These will be a bit more expensive but could be added to your registry and be gotten as gifts. Some of these diaper bags can even be monogrammed with your baby’s initials or name. Some stores will let you design your own bag. This way, you can have two bottle holders instead of one and separate compartments made to your specifications. Again, the more you want, the greater the cost.
Quite a few hospitals participate in programs that offer free, yes free, baby diaper bags. Your obstetrician should be able to steer you in the direction of these programs in your community. The free baby diaper bags may not have all the accessories of the more expensive bags, but, they will do in a pinch. They are great compared to having no baby diaper bag at all.
There are many places to find great baby diaper bags for less, you just have to decide what you want, how much you want to spend and how much effort you’re willing to put into finding the right bag for you.
