What’s the average diaper use? Like how many will be used a day/week/monthly?? I was told that 80 diapers would last for an entire month and I don’t see that being relatively true at all.

A diaper change every 2-3 hours, so 8-12 diapers a day. At least 240 a month.

My nephew is 2 (currently potty training) and we go through about 150 a month with him.

Thank you ladies. I want to be prepared! How often do babies stay in the newborn diapers?

My baby outgrew newborn diapers by around 3-4 weeks (she was born at 8 lb 11 oz), we were in ones up until 11 weeks and currently in twos now!

We had 2 small packs of newborn diapers from the hospital (about 20 total), one large box of 120ish and one smaller box of newborns (80ish)!

My LO skipped newborn diapers altogether. I don’t think I even know anyone who used newborn diapers, so I would suggest not having too big a stock! But it will also gradually decrease as they age. Start with the expectation of 8-12 per day, not including any tummy ache days or blowouts. My LO is 2 now and she goes through 4-5 but is also sporadically potty training. Hope this helps mama!

Right now at 4 months (in size 3 if that matters) a box of 210 diapers lasts about 2-3 weeks
Mine was in NB for a day and we decided they were too snug. Size 1 for about 3 weeks, size 2 for about a month, and then on size 3 now. My first son was in NB for maybe a week, size 1 for a month or two, 2 for a few months, size 3 for maybe 6 months, and has been in size 4 from about a year old until now (2y4m)

mine was in newborn diapers for about 2-3 months, she left the hospital at 5lbs 15oz

Mine was in newborn for a few months. Was 5lb 3 oz when left hospital.
Still about 8 diapers a day we are 9 months old.

My son (22months) and daughter (6months) both get about a minimum 10 diaper changes a day, for my son his box of diapers has 128 and my daughters has 164 and they last us about 3 weeks

Scary isn’t it these numbers! And they all go to look landfill 😔
I tried to be green and use reuseable but it just wasn’t practical!

You use up to 1000 diapers in only the first 3m. An average of 6500-7000 by the time they’ve toilet trained. One of the many reasons why I use cloth diapers and cloth wipes (wipes is estimated ~22,000 in 3yrs) I only had a stash of 80 cloth diapers and 70 cloth wipes which the wipes I’m still using 4yrs PP and the diapers I can reuse for the next baby IF I had a next baby, can usually service 3 babies

depends what size baby is my baby is 5 weeks and still in there but was only 6lb 7

Mine was in newborn for about 3 months. Around 3 months we switched to size one. She’s 4 1/2 months and still in size one. Diaper changes about every 2-3 hours. When they are newborns they poop more frequently so the diaper changes and blow outs were also more frequent as now she only poops every couple days.

80 a month, what a joke hahah .... bub is 15 weeks and we're still using about 80 a week (more in the early days I'd say) 😂

It’s depending on ur little one my Newborn used about 6 to 7 a day depending on how many times she poo newborns poos more she turned 2 months she sized up I used 5 to 6 a day also depending on how many times she poo
