I did not get any newborns at my baby shower but a ton of 1 and 2 size. We are predicting a big baby though. My doctor has stated 9lbs or more. He was 7 at my 36 week appt 2 weeks ago:) I heard the hospital will give you some too!

my bubs went thru about 200+ nappies as newborns this is how much I was given at baby shower of all different brands. that was in the first 2 weeks then about 2 weeks later they went up a size. I plan to buy six packs of newborn nappies for the first month or so....

Keep in mind, even if your baby can't fit them (or grows out of them), you can take the unopened packages/boxes back and exchange them for bigger sizes.

Depends on the size of baby . They will fit in size ones be a little big. Better than wasting diapers. Maybe buy a small pack or two when they are on sale. I only used a small pack but my son was also 9lbs 9 oz when he was born

Depends on size of baby at birth. You may want to bulk buy size one and above. And get just a few small packs of newborns if your close to birth and keep recipet so you can return or exchange if not needed.

They normally go through about 2-3 small packs of newborn diapers. They will use more size 1 diapers than newborn...
