No time for a baby shower? Didn’t get everything on your registry? Not to worry. As you enter the nesting stage of your pregnancy — armed with this helpful checklist — you’ll have the nursery ready in time to greet your bundle of joy.

1. Diapers. You can’t have too many diapers as newborns go through dozens daily. For easy, convenient access, place a stocked diaper hanger near baby’s changing table.
2. Wipes. Baby wipes are versatile. Use them for baby’s bottom, to clean your hands, wipe away spittle, and keep the nursery spic-and-span (and sanitary).
3. Wipes warmer. Like an electric blanket for your wipes container, the warmer promises that your little one will never be surprised by a cold, uncomfortable wipe.
4. Toiletries. Baby oil, lotion and powder create that identifiable “baby” scent while protecting and moisturizing skin. Keep diaper rash cream, nursery jelly and cotton swabs handy too.
5. Diaper Genie. Keep the nursery fresh with the innovative Diaper Genie which seals individual used diapers in a scented film reducing mess, odors and germs.
6. Diaper Bag. Make your style choice – personalized totes, hands-free backpacks, masculine dad bags and more – and keep a well-stocked diaper bag ready to grab-and-go.
7. Onesies. These tiny T-shirts come in every color and pattern imaginable and snap at the crotch for easy diaper changing while keeping baby’s back and belly warm.
8. Receiving blankets. Use these small square blankets for swaddling, as a clean surface to lay baby on, and for draping over shoulders to avoid drool and spit-up.
9. Hooded towels and washcloths. Stock up on super-soft baby washcloths for cleaning baby’s tiny parts. Wrap her bare body in a hooded towel for extra coziness and to avoid a chill.
10. Sheets. Whether you opt for a crib, bassinet, cradle or basket, prepare it with a fresh, clean sheet for baby. Have several washed – you’ll change sheets frequently.
