Its time to start implementing all the plans you set 9 months ago.

few months preparing the baby room and you hope that they did not
forget to put the baby furniture, baby clothing, toys and everything
a newborn could ever want and need in the room. You probably read
a dozen and a half baby care books and magazines while you were
at the hospital but you feel like all that information was not enough.

Give your baby a name you enjoy calling
Naming a
baby is a very importa is a very important part of most South
Africans cultures. The name given to a baby normally tells a story
about either the parents life or has some other deeper message.
In the Zulu culture the male baby is normally named after the powerful
late forefather (e.g..
Shaka)
while the girl child is given the name of a hardworking grandmother.
Other cultures actually have a special naming ceremony were the
elders gather and decide on a suitable name to bless the child.
Other people might prefer to name their child at church during
the Baptism ceremony (like what happened to me 35 years ago). Nowadays
the system is a bit different because you have to name your child
at birth, while still at the clinic so that the birth certificate
can be drafted. Either way.. the whole process of naming the baby
is both exciting and sometimes confusing - but is enjoyable for
both the new mother and father.robably spent a few nights just imagining
your little bundle of joy sleeping in the baby's room in the little
cute crib. Its not a dream anymore. Little Shaka is in his baby
cradle dreaming about his new exciting adventures he will have when
he is old enough. Perhaps he will conquer Kingdoms like his Great
Grandfather. Anything is possible...
Babies are delicate and need soft baby clothing and shoes

baby will also help you in decorating the baby room and choosing
the best toys.... don't get me wrong ..I'm not saying that you should
buy a rugby ball for you baby boy already.. ha that's too earlier.

born babies and they also categorise them according to sex as well.
