What's in this room この部屋にあるもの
Baby cribベビーベッドCribs are huge and you only use them for so long, so we went compact and rental. If you are 145cm or taller, get the high type — you can change diapers without breaking your back. And returning a rental beats the hassle of reselling.
Baby gateベビーゲートIt locks itself behind you — no more wondering whether you closed it. Made by Iris Ohyama, a very reliable maker.
Play matジョイントマットFor value for money, Nitori mats are the best in my book. Lose or damage a piece and you just pick up another 9-pack at the nearest store.
Picture book shelf絵本棚Reviews are low because assembly is rough — but once built it is seriously durable, and far less likely to topple when your toddler hangs on it than its plastic counterparts. Toy storage underneath, too.
Diaper pailおむつゴミ箱You will change roughly 10 diapers a day. Lifting a lid every single time is a chore and not great hygienically — a pail you can just drop into is a lifesaver.
Baby monitorベビーモニターFor naps in another room. Why we picked a no-Wi-Fi model, and where to mount it.
Highback sofaハイバックソファThe high back supports you to the neck — a lifesaver for nursing. Low arms play nicely with a nursing pillow.
Baby movement sensorベビーセンサーSensor pads under the mattress watch for movement. The same one our maternity hospital used — we sleep easier.
Kids partitionキッズパーティションKeeps the window zone off-limits for the baby. Bonus: one panel is a built-in toy board.
Diaper caddyおむつストッカーDiapers, wipes, lotion and pet sheets (as changing pads) in one place — right next to the crib, where it matters. The lid keeps dust off the diapers.
Nursing pillow授乳クッションOur nursing companion. The bundled mini pillow is the sleeper hit — just right for propping up the baby’s head while breastfeeding.
Electric nasal aspirator電動鼻吸い器In active duty at our house — and it will be until our daughter can blow her own nose. Strong suction without hurting the nasal cavity. Very effective.
Baby bouncerバウンサーOurs is this cost-effective one. Being able to park the baby without holding them is priceless at mealtimes. Also, something about this position makes babies poop a lot — consider yourself warned.
Baby carrier抱っこ紐After looking at and trying on many, we settled on the BabyBjörn Harmony. Very secure, and even a very inflexible person like me can put it on quickly.
Thermo-hygrometer温湿度計Good baby sleep starts at 20–24°C and 50–60% humidity. Read the numbers, not your gut.
Humidifying air purifier加湿空気清浄機Keep the air as clean as you can for the baby. Daikin is the world’s largest air-conditioning maker by revenue and the domestic share leader in commercial AC — the brand professionals run. (I love their air conditioners, too.)
