Honestly I thought I was set up for having my little guy for the first year. Truth is, I wasn’t.
Here are some things I agree with and disagree with.
Less clothes in one size. I mean will they really wear all those cute outfits.. probably not! Infact, my little guy wore newborn for the first week, and almost completely skipped 3 month outfits. He is now currently wearing 12month at under 8 months old!
Less baby wash! Holy smokes I think I am set up for two years of baby wash. Babies do not require a lot of soap, so why waste money on so much soap when those funds could go to something more useful like formula.
Speaking of FORMULA, which one should you get? Well that all depends on the baby. Thankfully there are samples that are available for mail to try before you go buy big containers of a formula that doesn’t agree with your little ones digestive system.
Diapers! Yes stock up on diapers! At least one box in all sizes. Buy more as you go because if your baby is like mine you will need size 4 before you know it.

My mother said after my baby shower, do you really need all those wipes? The answer is yes! Wipes, wipes and more wipes. Plus they come in handy for yourself as well.
Baby bathtubs.. makes things easier. Bath your baby at standing level and save your back.
Teething remedies. I used whole cloves. I wanted to use a more natural approach. Always test on yourself. I ordered mine for an extremely cheap price!
Here are some other essentials which I found to be very reasonably priced, some cheaper then a store.
Definitely needed lots of these! Way more then I expected.
There is so much more to add. Do you have anything you wish you had when your baby was born? Add it to the comment section below!
