ftm ? s

My bf and I are trying to get ourselves ready before our baby comes in 9 weeks and we need to know how much of things we should have:

Diapers a day usually? So how many boxes of 96? Bottles? Pacifiers? Do babies nornally outgrow newborn clothes fast or is that diapers?Should we buy size newborn and atleast a box of 1s?

Thank you ladies :)

Yeah i wouldn't open all 3 just to be safe no need to waste money with a new baby u can do 3 but at least get the 5 oz and 3 8 oz. It might be hard tho because babies tend to eat more than ud realize and ud hate to be stuck at the Dr's or out and not having enough bottles

Thank you :) guess we have to exchange a box of newborn lol we have 3 boxes of 96- newborn. And I tried telling my bf we needed more than 3 bottles but he said we should just wash & sterilize them after every use and we wont need many. And we have tons of clothes. People gave us alot so we didnt even have to buy anything lol and of course tons of wipies :)

get yourself only 1 box of newborn size 1 starts at 8 pounds and most babies are around 7-8 pounds. get 2 boxes of size 1 and save for the rest. i'd get 5 5 oz bottles and 6 8 oz bottles because babies start to eat more pretty quickly. buy no more than 10 of each clothing item for that size id say any more and it they outgrow before they can wear them :) the hospital usually gives u a pacifier and babies seem to love that one so I didn't buy any.
