Each baby is different - your baby's birth weight may be larger or smaller. I wouldn't go overboard with NB sized diapers just in case baby is on the larger side.

One thing I've heard of people doing is getting a gift card (to Walmart or Target) and adding $20 every paycheck or so and then using that gift card to get whatever diapers they needed in the correct sizes.

both my sister and i started out with size 1-2 and her son was 7lbs something and my daughter was 9 lbs 2 oz... so either way its a safe size to have on hand...

Colton went from newborn at birth to size two at 3 months. That being saidhe is a chunk!!!

Lexi was in newborn diapers for two months and we had to buy extra newborn diapers. We had one box of them and then a couple boxes of ones and a pack of threes. Honestly, it really depends on the baby as to how long they stay in newborn diapers. I would exchange some of those boxes for ones or two or something. 10 boxes of newborn diapers is quite a lot.

I was told to get two cases of NB diapers....  I ended up buying 1 box... I can see how you can go through them fast at times but at the same time, if your baby is born at 8-9lbs, you are pretty much almost out of the NB diapers...

thanks then i am  going to return 9 of them :)

If you bought 10 cases of NB sizes, you bought far too many. Some babies never use NB sizes. My daughter used them for a month or so before we moved her into a size 1, and she stayed in those for awhile. More than likely you'll only use a case of NB diapers and that's it.

then i think i bought liitle too much , maybe i should return some of them and get the sizeh 1-2

The newborns diapers should have a weight size on them.. The ones I have that are labelled specifically for newborns, say up to 10lbs..

I bought a 2nd box of 1-2, which says up to 15lbs...

up to what age are they concern as a new born , i bought 10 diaper case that has 184 in each of them , should i buy more newborn or should i go up size? thanks :)

Lexi used close to 10 as a newborn. She literally either peed or had a bowel movement every two to three hours.
