    • Stock up on everyday baby essentials like Huggies, Diaper Genie, Aveeno Baby Wash, Desitin Diaper Rash Cream, Johnson and Johnson Baby Wash and Lotion by buying in bulk.

Have a friend or family member that’s having a baby, put together a New-Mom Survival kit with all these essentials and they will be forever grateful. Want to save some money? Sam’s Club provides big savings for growing families, when you join, you will get $80 in special savings on baby basics.

    • Brace yourself to fall head over heel in love with your little one
    • Look into hiring help, if you can afford it. And, don’t be afraid to ask your family and friends to assist anyway possible.
    • Just say no, to self doubt.
    • Focus on the present by savoring those precious moments because it’s true they grow up faster than you anticipate.
    • Indulge in a little self love, take some time in between feeding the baby and get some rest, shower, and get something to eat
