You will be a wonderful mommy! I promise. You're just having those noraml doubts right now!

1) with a newborn baby, you should allow 12 diapers per day and 1 extra day's worth of diapers as a cushion. In this way, you should never run out of diapers.
There are approximately 30 days in a month so thats already 360 diapers a month.


2)
newborn = 6-10 lbs
size 1, small = 8-14 lbs
size 2, small/medium = 12-18 lbs
size 3, medium = 16-38 lbs
size 4, large = 22-37 lbs
size 5, extra large = 30 lbs
size 6, extra extra large = 35 lbs
training pants or "pull-ups" for toddlers = 30-80 lbs

3) yes- buy in bulk!!! Everytime you go to walmart buy a pack of diapers, im not even kidding.

Maternal instincts will kick in and trust me there will be plunty of ppl telling u how to raise your son. And theres us breeeeeaathe hun.... Read up on being a mommy too theres plunty of books...

Have you got simple essentials like begining diapers, health care, cleaning needs, if the baby gets sick, infant tylonol and what not? Have you picked a peditricion?

Ask specifics were here too!

Thanks ya'll. I have not founf a pediatrician yet, as a matter of fact I am about to look up some on the net now. On nov 9th I will be going to gat majority of the baby things, and then on the 23rd I will be going for the second round of stuff. I picked these days because I get paid on th 8th and 22nd, and my mom has a hold an my account so I can't take anthing out unless I make a deposit myself. Sot by nov 23rd I will hopedull have all I need. And i'll start on the diapers know. I was looking at diapers that come in a pack of like 160, and I thought to myself "this is great, I probably will only need one box a month". Boy, was I wrong. The amount of diapers that babies go through is ridicoulas, I really don't understand why they have to urinate or have a bm so often. I hardly go twice a day. Do they really get that much from milk?

Well, it can depend a lot on if you breast feed or use formula. They wont use as many diapers(although they will still use a crap load) on breast milk as they will on formula because there isnt much in breast milk that their bodies dont use. But yeah, they do gotta go a lot. It runs through their system really fast...You can pretty much expect a dirty diaper shortly after you feed them.

Don't worry destiny! I'm getting apprehensive too! Tru will be here in just over 2 months!

Lol im freaking out too ;x

Financially we will manage but on principle, I will (damn space bar) not be buying formula, baby food, etc and I will be using terry nappies with disposable liners.

Breast milk, purreed adult food and terries were good enough for me and the rest of the family as babies...

See this I can't understand: 200ml jar of purreed apple and banana = £1.99 approx, apple = £0.19 maybe and banana probably less and will easily make up at least 2-3 jars - cost effectiveness

I know what you mean kia! When we have kids i'll probably make the food for them myself. It's cheaper and these days you wonder if you should trust other people making your babies food.

Its ok hun we all go through being scard and stuff just rember we are all here for you if you have question and need any help
