#2 – Water bottle with cool water + water bottle with normal water

#3 – Juice

#4 – 3 types of finger food to keep fingers busy – husks, fish crackers and grapes/cherries

#4 – Diapers, diaper changing mat, trash bag, baby wipes + one toy to keep fingers busy to prevent scratching when changing diaper

#5 – Tissue Paper

#6 – Fan to keep baby cool + can be used as distraction since baby likes to ‘catch the fan’

#7 – Antiseptic lotion, for use before applying steroid or just cleaning the baby from possible irritant

#8 – Moisturiser
