Baby essentials such as diapers may vary. They may be in disposable or cloth. If you choose cloth, you must have at least three dozens of diapers. These baby essentials must be washed thoroughly to avoid rashes. If you choose the disposable ones, you must have sufficient supply for a week but don't buy several packs because your baby grows faster and the sizes change.
