How many diapers should I have on hand before baby comes? I have a box of NB #144 count and a small package of luvs in…

yea it does depend on the baby, hopefully you will be able to get to use them all

hmmm. well if I buy them from babies r us they will exchange for a different size. I have gift cards so that's why I'm thinking I'll just do it there. plus their brand has more diapers for the same price as the pampers brand. I know that most babies, I've heard mainly only Caucasian babies, loose weight before coming out. I know with me I was full term and came put 5lbs and I didn't gain weight rapidly. So I think I may buy one more box of NB then buy some size 1. thanks for your help! @regelbaby @xty0811 @babyethansmommy

A she gained weight rapidly right away

I think it muSt depend on babies shape too cuz my son was 8'8 n he wore newborn for a few weeks

if u have a Walmart, they might exchange your unopen package of diapers for a bigger size.

yeah if baby is small your gonna probably need that box of nb I know I had 3 boxes and 3 packs of nb diapers and I only used the 3 packs and 1 box and then exchanged the other 2 boxes but that pack is gonna be gone in like 3days the first 2 weeks of babies life they use about 8to 12 diapers a day so times that by 14 days u might just use all of your nb diapers the first couple weeks

thanks ladies! @babyethansmommy @oliviasmommy24 @caydensmommy I'm probably going to use the small pack of NB diapers first before moving to the box, so I can exchange if needed. I also don't think my baby will be coming out big at all since I haven't gained much weight.

I would focus on size 1s and up. My son was 9 lbs when he was born and only wore newborn a couple days. I had to go exchange boxes of newborn diapers for other sizes

I would say get 1 more pack of new born then focus on size 1s my son is still in size 1s and he's 4 months old he's been wearing them for about 3 months now so I sat get 2 boxes and 2 packs of size 1s to go with what you anyway have

I didn't use many NB diapers and my baby was 6lb at birth. She grew out of them at 8lbs bc they were way to snug around waist.i bought Maybe 3 packs of NB before I moved onto size one so maybe total of 90 nb diapers

thanks! @pardonmemom

I found a "stock pile" cheat sheet on Pinterest! I'm not sure how accurate it is. Maybe some other mommies can help us. Hold on and I'll post a screenshot!
