@amberspringer same here.... i just know that if i ever have to buy it immediately it will def be parents choice feom walmart. Hahaha.... i think im trying to aim for Huggies while hes a baby but after it'll have to be the cheaper brands. Lol.
@bbyzvcy18, yes once they hit a bigger size, I go Costco or target brand. I heard boys do better in certain brands. My aunt found pampers better for my cousin. I wonder if that’s really the case now since that was 19 years ago. I’m having a boy so it would suck if I get tons and they leak lol
@amberspringer Lol, oh no... im having a boy too. My boy will be my first boy so as i learn new things about baby boys it scares me!!! 😂😆😁. I hope he'll do fine.... same goes to the formulas too. My sisters tokd me not to get too much yet since i can never be sure what he might be able to take and what not.... i just feel so afraid since im high risk. I just want to be prepared and know that he will have everything that he needs incase anything happens to me. 😔 can never be sure.
@bbyzvcy18, it’s my first boy too. Lol we got a lot of learning. Your comment about not making it made my heart sink. Think positive! Everything will be okay. But I completely get what you’re saying
@amberspringer It's so hard... throughout this whole pregnancy i just wanted to enjoy it but one thing after another and it just seemed to never end. Before i knew it i only had about 2 1/2 months left. I just see so many mamas well prepared, stocked up, happy, and ready for their baby while i feel like an unprepared, and irresponsible mama here. Lol. But you ladies always makes me feel better. Thank you!
@bbyzvcy18, well you’re doing great! Just don’t stress. Remember that the baby grows fast in the beginning so you may not need as much as some think. Of course you know that though, seeing you have a beautiful little girl already 😊
@amberspringer Haha... thats a great reminder and thanks. It has been 10 long years and my mama instincts has slowly vanished. Hahaha. Often times i feel like a first time mommy. Puahahha.
The day my baby girl and i came home from the hospital i slipped down the stairs trying to go grab some clothes to change into. The slipped caused my incision to split open and since i didnt drive at the time the baby daddy wouldn't take me to go get it checked because i had a follow up in 3 days so he told me to just wait till then to go in. Me being the stupid person i was then, waited and sure enough it got infected. My Dr was so shock to see it opened and did give me crap for not going in. Because of the infection they couldnt close it up so instead i had to let it heal inside out which took 2 whole months! I wasnt allowed to get up besides to use the bathroom. Other then that i had to eat from bed, couldnt carry anything heavy, and just layed there until it healed.
Therefore my experience in taking care of a newborn is pretty much zero! Hahaha. I was fortunate enough to have grandma there helping me to raise her for that 2 months. But even so after that 2 months i went right back to work. The baby daddy quitted his job a day or two after i delivered my baby girl. We were so poor and had no money at all so thats why i was so determined to work right after recovery. I worked long hours day in and day out. I dont even know how i survived. My biggest regret was missing out on being there for my daughter when she was a baby. With this boy, my daughter and i just want to make sure that he gets everything that we didnt have back then.
@amberspringer Oh wow!!!! Our babies are very gapped from one another. Hahaha. My co worker is the same way and told me that the doctors have tild her that she only conceives abiut wvry 8 to 10 years.... have you ever checked by chance? Or was it just by choice to wait?

@bbyzvcy18, completely understand! I’m so sorry you went through that. I’m sure this time around, everything will go smoothly.
My two girls are 11 years apart lol. This baby and my youngest will be 7 years apart. It definitely feels new again
