DIY Baby First Aid Kit

If you are about to be a new mom, the world of baby first aid probably seems scary to you. "What should I keep in that medicine cabinet?"  "How will I know if I have everything?"  I saw this question (and their answer) being asked by a mom-to-be on the bump.com and thought I would pass it on to you... 

"I'm trying to make a first aid kit for my baby. What should I put in it?"
[ ] Baby nail clippers or blunt scissors

[ ] Cotton balls (don’t use swabs to clean baby’s nose or ears)

[ ] Baby thermometer

[ ] Bulb syringe/nasal aspirator

[ ] Medicine dropper or spoon with measurements

[ ] Petroleum jelly and sterile gauze (for circumcision care)

[ ] Infant acetaminophen (Tylenol)

[ ] Antibiotic cream

[ ] Saline nasal drops

[ ] Baby gas drops

[ ] Disinfecting hand soap (for you)


Don't forget to take an infant CPR class too! Anything else you think should be added to this list?  Let us know!
