How much do you spend per month on a newborn?

Question

Hi ladies. I just started my second trimester today but I have been saving up for a while to have this baby. Just curious to know about how much you spend on your newborn in the first year every month? I will be a single mom and I make $2600 per month. If it makes a difference I live in NJ!

Answer

Not sure exactly how they work or where to get them but to save money you could use cloth diapers, breastfeed if possible, definitely get handmedowns, and spend $$ on things that are worth it and not the best to get handed down. 
I have a high Burlington coat factory by me that has a baby section with good deals
I don't have a baby yet but my mom has owned a daycare my whole life. Even if you join a mommy and me class or something other moms may have items they don't use anymore.

Answer

$50 on formula other then that I had enough supplies from my baby shower to last the first year.

Answer

Breastfeeding saves a lot of money cause formula can be pricey. But I probably spent about 20 a week on diapers and I got most of my clothes second hand. I didn't bother with a nursery because I bed shared.

Answer

I bought cloth and BF. So, maaaaaybe a couple bucks. After six months I bought purée and some wipes every other month. Super easy to live cheap. I'd estimate 60-100$
