We had 4 boxes of those huggies wipes and they would have lasted us about ~ 6 months until I realized they made my baby red in that area. Went through I believe around 5-6 of the biggest NB diaper boxes, 2 of the 1 and she was in 2 for around the same as NB. she is size 3 now and we go through about 1 box a month. Hope this helps! It's just hard for me to tell cuz all the items are out! You definitely have more than enough bottles and bath supplies! At least for the first year Although all babies are different and my baby was in premiee diapers for the first 2 weeks😊 So if I had to guess probably around 6-10 weeks for just the diapers

I wouldn’t buy anymore. Yo I can always buy stuff when you are about to run out. This is a ton of stuff but it really depends on the baby how fast you’ll go through things. You only have limited space so use this stuff up and when you have a couple of wipe packets left then buy another box. You never have to stock up like this. Also with diapers babies grow so fast so I wouldn’t buy more until you need more because you won’t know how many you’ll need of that size. That’s also a lot of bottles. Do you plan to just bottle feed? Even that many I think is a lot and you could probably return and exchange like half of those to be able to buy other things that you want or need. Some with the lotions or diaper creams that you have

Feel free to message me and I can help you I figure out amounts of things that you need so you can actually use all the stuff instead of potentially never using. Or know how much more stuff you need to buy or things like that

We bought a box of Huggies wipes and realised that it didn't suit him. So we bought water wipes from Costco. A box of wipes lasts us a couple months I think. You'll definitely need more diapers but it's best to buy them when you're on your last pack coz the baby may need a bigger size. That is a lot of bottles too. You won't need anymore of those. We've been using 8 bottles and that has worked for us so far. My baby is 4 months. Lotions also might last you a year I'd think

Also I would not open all the diapers! You can exchange closed diaper boxes for bigger sizes

@Favi was just coming to say this. I have a tote full of size 2 boxes that I've been exchanging for size 3 and 4 little by little 🤣

Every baby is definitely different because my girl, even though things fit around her belly just fine, she has big thighs and legs so I've sized up earlier than the weight suggested on diapers so she doesn't get the red marks on her thighs. Wipes depends on how many you use when you change tbh. My sis in law uses 5-6 wipes for a pee diaper, (plus an extra wipe that she uses to apply the diaper cream) vs my 2 wipes 🤷🏽‍♀️ Also that is a shit ton of bottles. For the ones in the box, keep them in there in case you need to exchange them. My daughter didn't like the Avent or the Dr. Browns, but she took the Tommee Tippees so I was happy that I had different varieties on my registry.

@Favi Iv gotten them mostly form the hospital and they were opened already!! But I was thinking about that I think I’d be able To trade them on marketplace if anything

@Gabrielle I’m planing on both breast and bottle feeding! But all the bottles I got were free and I don’t want to turn anything downnn ykk I was thinking it’s to many but I give a lot of stuff away on marketplace!!

That's so many bottles 😂 I have 4 lol but hey that's totally up to preference! Wipes and diapers may last a couple months depending on diaper size. My first was on NB diapers a week, my second was on NB for a day (big boy) both were in 1s for a month or so, my oldest in 2s for a few months, my youngest in 2s about one month. 3s lasted a 4-6 months for my oldest and he's been in size 4 since about 9 months until now at 2.5yo and about to potty train. My youngest is 5mo, in size 3 for about 3 months now and soon to move to 4s. He will likely get to 5s, 6s, maybe 7s before potty training at 2.5yo.

Wow can you please tell me how and where you can get these things for free?!

@Abi look up different sites that have bump boxes or freebies to sample. I have like 4 different emails 😂 so for some sites that allowed it, I made multiple accounts. But I received a lot of gadgets like bottles and bottle brushes, teethers, pacifiers etc. Also if you have any local food banks, they tend to have freebies. The ones by me are very generous when it comes to baby stuff - that's how I got my stroller and play pen.

@Abi target registry!!!! Multiple emails😂. And idk why but my welcom kit barcode doesn’t disappear after I use it. My sister and mom also made a registry and they get a welcome bag everytime they go to target. And my sister works in peds at the hospital so she’s always bringing wipes and diapers home!
