Question

Hey guys so I am due in May & I still haven’t got everything for the baby & I was wondering what kind of products do you guys recommenced ? as far as baby lotions , soaps , diaper brand , wipe brand .. etc also how do you get the right clothes not knowing the size of the baby yet ? Im a first time mom & I have some clothes in every size leading up to 3-6 months & I don’t want to get to much & she doesn’t get to wear them so if any advice on that , that would be great .

Answer

I’ll be honest everyone is different with diapers. Lots of people recommend the name brand like huggies and such. We actually prefer sams club brand. Definitely get like destiten cream or another paste. If you want to breastfeed call your insurance to see who you can go through to get a breast pump. If formula take some time and see what you want. We used Similac it’s got a silver label and we loved it.

Answer

Go with pampers to start. You can take some from the hospital, the hospital I delivered at encouraged you to take supplies. Buy this butt paste for diaper rash. Our baby had a bad reaction to wipes so I don’t have a recommendation.
Do you plan to breastfeed? If yes, grap a nipple shield, and nipple pads
If formula, grab some of this formula. They don’t want you to use powder until the baby is back at its birth weight. 
Are you having a boy and circumsizing? Buy gauze and Vaseline. Gauze was actually oddly expensive.

Answer

For diapers I like huggies (Winnie the Pooh, I think they’re little snuggles) they seem to hold blow outs better haha, but I also like pampers! 
I use the baby aveeno soaps/lotions and I really like them. My babe has sensitive skin and they aren’t harsh on him at all. 
One thing I bought that I wasn’t even sure I would use was a snuggle me organic (like a dock a tot) and I used it ALL. THE. TIME. Definitely invest in some kind of sleeper type thing you can move around the house. Also those swaddles that Velcro are game changers. 
My baby was in 3-6 forever and has been in 6-9 for a few months now, so you can definitely stock up, but he did have tons of outfits he never wore (I gift them to other new mamas!). Definitely start getting big sizes cause they grow and you don’t even notice until you don’t have any clothes that fit 🙈🙈🙈
