The time you spent to research these things and make this video does not go unnoticed, thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[briannawhite]

I love how gentle you come across... you seem so understanding and thoughtful of everyone’s situations. I’m sure you make a lot of women feel so safe and sure about motherhood ❤️

[boonella]

Burlington Coat Factory and Once upon a child were lifesavers when I had my boys 17months apart....

[hannahtucker]

For footies, I love the target ones! They’re $13 for a 3-pack and they’re zippers 👏🏼

[kyralanting]

Recently finding out I am pregnant and watching videos, I have been horrified on the cost of products people are recommending to new moms. This video genuinely helps me and I am so grateful for your budget friendly approach.

[m.a]

Very underrated but super useful video .. thanks a ton! i found this more comprehensive than some of the ones out there

Love Luvs diapers! They feel thinner, but absorbed just as well for us. We use a combination of cloth diapers and disposables (disposable overnight and while being out of the house for long periods of time, and cloth all other times). A bit of advice for anyone interested in cloth but still on the fence, it doesn't have to be all or nothing. You can use cloth some of the time and disposables at other times, and you'll still save tons of money.

I just came across your channel! I’m 6 months pregnant, first baby and I’m going crazy trying to see what to buy! Your videos have been SOOO helpful!!!! Thank you!!!

[jenniferrideaux]

I really enjoyed this one. I’m personally out of the baby years as my youngest is 10 but my oldest and his fiancé are trying to get pregnant and my niece is 5 months pregnant. I enjoy seeing what items are more “affordable” but still trusted by moms.

[ROCKERITA]

My Evenflo stroller has been great! Going on 2 years now & with a new baby on the way I’m SOOO glad I got the double stroller option! And it didn’t break the bank, under $400 🙌🏼

[tiffanycarothers]

Omg yes to everything you said. I'm 24 weeks pregnant with baby number 4 and have found so many amazing deals that are new/like new second hand. I got an Ergo carrier for $5.99 and really cute clothes from Zara under $2 at the thrift store. I got Swaddle Me blankets for $1.50 and Aiden + Anais swaddle blankets for $0.99. Bought a Fawn Design diaper bag from a friend for $30.
Also some things that I bought that you mentioned were the Halo bassinet, angelcare bath seat. I wanted the Maxi Cosi travel system in the cream color that you mentioned but it had mixed reviews so I went with Britax.

I have to plug cloth diapers for those who may be interested. Everyone should do whatever they want! But cloth is WAY easier than you think. You can even use disposable liners to make it even easier. And it's so freaking cute!!! Prints could be a money suck, I'm too poor but have benefitted from brand new hand me downs from those who arent!

Cost wise, I cloth diaper and I used Christmas money to splurge on adding to our stash when I needed to, was given a ton both as gifts and second hand. So I paid nearly nothing to diaper my daughter from birth to potty training.
It was so easy, especially with a diaper sprayer (they are about 40 bucks but my friend gifted it to me) and never having blowouts. It's so much easier than you think, especially if you stay away from microfiber.

Used 24 (36 would be more comfortable) xsmall and 8 newborn covers. I liked the nickis Newborn best, but lots of people like thirsties and rumparoos too. I will say she didn't size out of nickis newborn until 7 months old...
Flip covers are good, easy to trifold prefolds or flats into. I think they make actual cotton inserts for the flip system, but good flats or prefolds from nickisdiapers.com or green mountain diapers or osocozy are great. Stay away from gerber its garbage for actual diapering.

Went to Grovia ONEs for daytime at about 1yr. easy to clean and only thing that worked with my heavy wetter, she could outpee disposables.😬
Anyway a lot of people love their hybrid system and use the ONEs for overnight diapering. I only had 14 for daytime use and while they are pretty worn, they held up awesome to the hard constant use. And they have a bundler discount. :)

The one thing I did shell out for were two big gun fitted diapers for overnight called Twinkie Tush Night Night. They are expensive, but they worked where disposables failed and are still in decent shape.... so way cheaper than disposable in the long run. I got them when she was about a year old and they are still in decent shape after she potty trained last fall just after her 3rd birthday. For a cover I used a wool cover my friend gave me, but you can get a disana wool cover for overnight for $30. Also TONS of good buy sell trade out there for woolies. You could even make one out of a thrifted sweater. ;)

Want to try best bottoms this time. Her swim diaper is that brand and its great.

My daughter hated all swaddles I'm glad I only got four. Would like to try love to dream this time though.

Never used any pacis or bottles. I was given a bunch from friends who had kids before me. I passed them on to someone else.

Clothes... that is one thing I say buy decent quality and capsule style. I had a dresser full of hand me down clothes but i used like six onesies i actually liked. I do like picking her stuff out and having something that doesn't immediately fall to pieces, like Carter's or Cat & Jack has proven well worth it. I regret being cheap and not picking out her clothes. 8-10 weather appropriate one piece outfits in each size is plenty generous. Well maybe not with a super spitter, kinda lucked out there too. Plan to grab some of those green sprouts burp cloths this time in case I'm not so lucky this time.

Edited to add, I got a cloud Island crib sheet because it was cheap and a pack of the same brand sleepers because I liked the print. Super unimpressed, both got holes almost immediately. New items should not do that after two washes.
Probiotics are must have! B. Infantis and l. Reuteri are the two most important strains to look for. Also get yourself some too! I like Jarrow and the garden of life womens one. <3

[melaniefaso]

I bought the Boppy Comfyfit on an Amazon Warehouse/open box deal for 35.00 after you had recommended it. If you search Amazon Warehouse you can find a lot of open box deals under the baby section. They even have the Infant Optix camera for a great deal too. Also if you live in a bigger city there is a consignment sale called Just Between Friends that happens a few times a year. I always stock up on diapers during those sales, because they are about half price for the giant boxes. If you are an expectant mom or grandparent you can get an early shopping pass for the JBF sale. I really love the Cloud Island zipper sleepers from Target, they always have sales on baby clothing too. Love your videos ❤️💕

[KfolksMs]

The graco portable glider is amazing too!Its a lifesaver! Fits in the back of your car as well!

[jessicalempert]

I have the graco swing you mentioned. I’m currently 36 weeks pregnant but we have it set up and it was super easy and it’s lightweight and collapses super flat! Very excited to use it!!

[lorener.]

Also, Evenflo pivot has a bassinet fold which is awesome for diaper changes in stores and easy to access him when fussy instead of carseat

[tahliachrystall]

I love my maxi cosi zelia and car seat. They are so durable and work amazingly. I love the easy ability to switch between bassinet and seat mode. The shopping basket is also huge and when you have the car seat on the pram you have heaps of space underneath. It also folds down pretty small so it fits really easily in the back of the car

[James]

Another diaper tip, if buying from Target, Target pretty much always has $15 off $75 or $20 off $100 baby toiletry items (includes diapers and wipes) which is a great way to save more money (you can also buy one box in their current size and one in the next size up if you're worried about buying too many in one size, or you can buy all in their current size and exchange if they outgrow by the time you get to the 2nd box). They also frequently have diaper coupons on their Circle app, or you can use printable coupons from online, and they let you use the coupons in addition to the $15 off $75 or $20 off $100. And if you have a Target RedCard you get 5% off as well (and it's 5% off in addition to all of those other savings).

[priscillajenkins]

Thank you so much for the recommendations, just found out I’m pregnant last week so this & your other videos are VERY helpful!!!

[Penelope]

This video is wonderful! As a grandma of 4 and I just found out tonight we will be having a fifth later this summer, I need to find good products at an even better price! I raised 4 kids and I used Luvs diapers way back when (like my youngest daughters will be 36 this year) and I loved them. I never liked Pampers and Huggies were good, but the Luv's were so well priced even back then and they worked so well. So much has changed since I had my children so I will be following your videos like a new Mom! Thank you so much for all the research you have done. It really helps so much to hear from a young Mom as to what products are in now!
