advice !!

I use pampers, water wipes and tommee tippee bottles! Pampers are brilliant as they have a back pocket you can stop from leaks. So far no leaks and my boy is 2 months old now! Water wipes are expensive but we started with them as soon as he was born and have had no issues whatsoever so we have kept with them! Tommee tippee bottles are good if you are thinking of breastfeeding and want to swap between breast and bottle. The teats are wide and the most breast like I have seen! I haven’t had any problems with what I use but it depends on when your baby is born. All babies are different ❤️

@Michaela thanks i’ll definitely be looking into MAMs !! maybe i’ll buy a pack of few diff brands to try when she gets here. thanks for the advice

@Amelia water wipes got it didn’t want anything to irritating those sound great and i love the sound of no leaks !!! and i do plan on breastfeeding so im gonna look into the tommee yippee bottles thanks for the great advice !!

@Anna that’s okay!! I know that you are supposed to use cotton wool and water for nappy changes to start with but I will admit I used water wipes from the get go! It was convenient and they have caused no problems ❤️

For diapers, we use huggies. The pampers gave my baby a rash. For wipes, we use water wipes. And for bottles my baby is breastfed and I pump occasionally and we use the Lansinoh bottles. They have a wide teat and we haven't had any nipple confusion so far. Congratulations!

For diapers I use luvs they work great on my daughter the other brands like Huggies and pampers she had blow out but never did in luvs and they’re a little more affordable too for bottles I used dr.brown and Philip avents bottles because I got them at my baby shower but they work great tho dr brown does have a lot of pieces by wash them in the dishwasher and congratulations ❤️

Huggies are the one of the best nappies i’ve used with my baby boy, its a thick nappy! For bottles, I use pigeon bottles recommended by my nurses/midwife as the teats is silicone so its soft for babies to drink on!!

I use pampers, water wipes and MAM all been great for my LO and had no issues going breast to bottle x

congrats! personally i thought pampers stank even after 10 minutes use the smell we used aldi/cheaper brands and wipes though we went for pampers sensitive as huggies gave mine a bad reaction every time all baby’s are different it’s trial and error essentially however with newborns I use cotton wool and warm water when changing! then drying with a clothe and he never had an issues with nappy rash ever! we did this until he was about 12 weeks old x

Honestly as somone who stocked up and is through the stock and baby’s now 1 month old, you’ll go through them so quickly to trial and error different ones and know which ones you’ll like! 🫣

Definitely recommend trying differentones just cause every baby is different! We’re still using our stash from before my baby was born, but so far i have noticed that i like Huggies better pampers, they just fit my LO better, luvs are also good and super absorbent! Im not personally too picky with diapers, but when i used the huggies, they were definitely a fav. I personally also really liked the honest brand wipes and kirkland signature. As far as bottles, by boy is breastfeeding and ive tried doctor browns, but he didnt like that as much. So i switched to evenflo balance Wide and he takes to that really well. Pacis we use the tommee tippee ultra light and he will almost not take anything else. He will take mam, but prefers tommee tippee

I don’t recommend Dr. Browns, personally they didn’t work for my son Tommee Tippee is what I used with my son, we used pampers when he was a newborn and switched to luvs around 4-5 months

I use pampers and recently used lidl lupilu and was very impressed. Cow and gate formula, huggies water wipes and tommee tippee bottles.

Just buy gift cards for how much you can put towards it and set aside. You can use it for baby in general later on too. The hospital and people will also give/gift you enough to start off. It’s too hard to guess what types of needs baby will have. I do suggest trying lesser expensive but decent options first! My preemie twins use the parents choice Walmart brand of skinny bottles and they’re great. Walmart brand also has a wide neck option but personally wide neck bottles are sometimes hard to fit in cup holders and diaper bag slots.

we used parents choiche diapers and wipes for the last 3 years with no issues at all. huggies wipes gave both my kids rashes. the diapers were decent but honestly the same quality as walmarts brand 😊 both my kids also preferred nuk bottles

I love the Milli Moon brand, they are so soft & absorbent.

Boots wipes - they get stuck in the packet less. Pampers are great, but expensive. I like nutmeg (morrisons) and aldis nappies best for price and quality. Bottles, deffo MAM, I used tommee tippe for a while after finishing breast feeding and they were okay. But caused a bit of a spit up, mams teats are softer and more boob like.

Nappies we use Fred and Flo from Tesco and absolutely love them. Bottles my little girl only took to a MAM bottle due to a tongue tie when she was born. And wipes I love the Mamia off Amazon as you get 36 packs for quite cheap which is great and they’ve never irritated my little girl x

I use whatever box I can grab easily. I like some for nighttime some for being out, etc. never had an issue with any
