Baby proof your place

Now that our baby is starting to learn to stand and walk, we have to baby proof our place. It is not as easy as it sounds.

Here are steps we take for the baby safety products we purchase.

1 do research and make measurements around the home
2 decided on the brand to purchase
3 buy it
4 find time to install it
5 if item doesn’t fit properly or not working properly as it should
6 find time to return it
7 go back to step 1 again

These are the items we bought so far to baby proof our place.
Window gates
Cushions for our coffee table edges
Circuit protector
Gates for our hallway
Drawer locks for our drawers
Crib tent
Finger guards
Locks sets to change our locks in bathroom, bedrooms in case baby locks herself in there, we can open from outside with screw driver

Before we have a baby, we calculated that it would costs roughly three thousands dollars for basic necessity for the baby. We haven’t taken into consideration baby proof the apt and all the time that is require to install all the stuff.

From 9am – 5pm a full time job, after that is another job at home waiting (the baby) and in addition to that, have to find time to baby proof everything and make sure the baby is fed, my husband find it exhausting.

All of the headache and time constrain, it’s all worth it when you see your baby’s first everything (roll over, take first step, say da da and ma ma).
