Common questions
Do I really need a changing table?
Not necessarily. A contoured changing pad secured on a sturdy, anchored dresser works well and saves space and money.
Should I start with a crib or a bassinet?
A bassinet suits the first months beside your bed. A crib lasts much longer and can be used from birth if it fits your space.
