Wow how can something so small be that expensive, you may be wondering. I know I was blown away the first time I paid more for a newborn Easter dress then I did for my entire work outfit for the day. So with that thought in mind I started doing some searching and here is a quick run down of some of the better things I have found.
Step one go online and simply type in free baby stuff for expecting parents. You will be amazed at how many stores and products will send you FREE samples or even really good coupons. Lets face it when a can of formula is anywhere from $25.00 to $35.00 and only lasts 4 days, who would not want to save $10.00. You can sign up for cool baby stuff that can be sent to you for a FREE trail just to see how your baby likes it and how as a parent you like it. This is not only good for newborns, it can continue all the way to school age children.
Another thing is start your list of baby shower stuff way in advance and register for it, that way your guest have a wide varity of prices and items to get you. Also dont just think of newborn things for a baby shower, since they grow out of things so fast think upto 18 months.
One other online checking you can do is to try search engines like free stuff for babies in your home city, baby sales in your home town or even something like cheap baby stuff in your city. Hopefully with these easy steps you can make your dollar stretch as far as your belly does.
