Formula, diapers, wipes and any medicines for an infant, enough for two weeks. Vital for any household with a baby.
Baby supplies keep an infant fed, clean and comfortable through two weeks at home when stores close or roads go out. Stock to your baby's real daily use, then add a margin.
- Formula quantity: Count your baby's daily bottles and lay in at least fourteen days of formula, plus a few extra days.
- Water for mixing: Pair powdered formula with stored drinking water, or stock ready-to-feed formula that needs no water at all.
- Diapers and wipes: Stock diapers in the current size and the next size up, since babies grow fast.
- Medicines: Keep an infant fever reducer, a dosing syringe and any prescribed medicine, labeled with the dose your pediatrician gave you.
- Expiration dates: Check dates on formula and medicine and rotate them into daily use before they lapse.
- Storage: Pack everything in one sealed bin in a cool, dry closet so you can grab it in seconds.
