Some of the new mothers-to-be will have some ideas that will prove quite useful, and some of the ideas will seem a little extreme. Some Mothers get so intense about organizing a diaper bag that they forget to pack their own bag for the hospital stay. Most hospitals will help new Mothers in organizing a diaper bag. Some new parents will attend child care classes while they are pregnant to prepare themselves for delivery, taking the child home and caring for the child once they arrive in the home. Organizing a diaper bag is pretty easy at first because most Mom's will know that their new baby is going to be sleeping a lot. The appearance of the home can be directly connected to the parents ability in organizing a diaper bag. The diaper bag purchased many weeks ago may not be large enough to hold all of the items that the baby needs all day, and the parents will randomly place one item after another on the kitchen counter to use later in the day. On some days guests might see several pairs of socks, or a new teething pacifier that their newborn is not quite ready to use yet. When organizing a diaper bag, the parents know that they have to pack diapers and wipes, but other items never come to light until they are needed. A truly organized baby diaper bag will have a book inside that covers the development cycle of the child. There should be a soothing container of diaper rash ointment in one of the pockets of an organized diaper bag too, and an ample supply of nipple cream if the new Mother is planning on nursing. Most parents come up short on the amount of clothes that they put in a diaper bag on any given date. When organizing a diaper bag, parents should account for a new set of clothes for every feeding that will occur throughout the day. Since most babies have a tendency to spit up before, during and after a feeding, it is a good idea to get organized and have several burp pads on hand to handle the spittle. Some thoughtful Mothers will always include a soft toy for their child to play with when they are traveling in the car. They feel like organizing a diaper bag with a wide assortment of amusements but fail to remember to pack anything to wash their baby with if they are taken to a sitter. Some Mothers will get truly organized and place baby shampoo, soap and salves in separate plastic zippered bags because they find by organizing a diaper bag this way allows them to find the things that they need faster than ever before.
