Q: What should I buy first for a newborn?

Prioritize the essentials before your due date: A safe, approved car seat so you can bring baby home Diapers, wipes, and a changing spot A firm safe sleep surface and several fitted sheets Basic feeding supplies like bottles, a breast pump, or nursing pads Simple clothing and a couple layers for warmth Start with those core items and add extras as you learn your baby’s needs.

Q: When can I start using baby skin and bath products?

Gentle care from day one: Most newborn-safe, fragrance-free cleansers and moisturizers made for infants are suitable from birth, but always check the product label. Do a small patch test on your baby’s skin and wait 24 hours to watch for reactions. Keep baths short (a few minutes) and use lukewarm water to avoid drying skin. If you notice persistent irritation, consult your pediatrician before continuing a product. Walmart offers a variety of mild options and product descriptions to help you choose.

Q: How do I clean and care for baby gear like bottles and strollers?

Simple care helps items last and stay safe: Bottles and nipples: rinse after use, wash with hot soapy water or in the dishwasher if the product allows, and follow the manufacturer’s guidance for sterilizing. Strollers and car seats: wipe frames with a damp cloth; remove and wash fabric parts per product instructions. Mattresses and toys: use removable covers and machine-wash when possible; wipe hard toys with mild soap and water. Always let parts dry completely before reassembly and check for wear regularly. Look at product pages on Walmart.com for care details and replacement part availability.

Q: What if I need replacement parts or want to return baby items?

Options after purchase: Check the product page on Walmart.com for compatible replacement parts or accessory listings. If you need a return or exchange, visit your order history or bring the item to a Walmart store; the site lists return options and any applicable conditions.
