Checklists & Tips

When a new baby is on the way, expectant parents’ emotions go on a roller coaster ride. Anticipation, happiness, fears, and uncertainty all come and go. Once the initial excitement has settled, a lot of questions usually pop up: What should be included in the hospital bag? What should you pack in your hospital bag? And what things should you plan for well in advance before this new chapter of your life begins? Being well-prepared—from pregnancy through birth—makes the transition to parenthood much easier. Before you hold your little one in your arms, there are a few decisions to make and organizational matters to take care of. Good to know: On the Familienportal.NRW website, you’ll find not only advice and a wide range of support services, but also practical checklists for pregnant women and expectant parents. Clear lists of important to-dos help you keep track of everything that needs to be done during pregnancy. Among other things, we’ll let you know which financial and administrative matters you need to take care of well in advance. Our tips for expectant parents will help you organize the birth and your new family life as effectively as possible. This way, you can look forward to the upcoming event with greater peace of mind and enjoy those first moments with your child to the fullest.
