But I buy the big packs of target brand and we only use one/day overnight (we cloth diaper during the day). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259921 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 12:45:58 +0000 gingerbebe 2259921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I intensely stocked up on diapers when I was pregnant (you can do even exchanges at Walmart and Target for different sizes) and spent $150 for 6 months worth of diapers and wipes. When those ran out I stocked up on another coupon + clearance deal and got 4 more months of diapers and wipes for about $75. I am working through my last box of that hoard and have had to run out here and there to buy full price diapers when DS was slightly between sizes. I stocked up when I was motivated knowing when I was lazy I would just go and buy at full price. I think in addition to the full price purchases, we've spent about $300 this year and DS just turned 11 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259867 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 12:03:13 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2259867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@reverie: yeah - I think you just have to ignore the blue line a bit. We change with feelings or with we hear/smell a poop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259843 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 11:49:06 +0000 mauxie 2259843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think about $45 for DS. DD is thankfully out of diapers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259837 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 11:44:42 +0000 reverie 2259837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>so this probably sounds bad, but I went through swaddlers faster than other brands (which is what I think they want you to do) b/c I changed him every time the stripe turned blue, but in reality they hold way more than one pee! My son is now 25 months and uses one overnight diaper and probably 5ish during the day depending on his poop schedule. We buy loves for the day and go through maybe a box a month... it isn't so bad now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259772 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 10:51:06 +0000 snowjewelz 2259772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the beginning is def way more. DD is 8 mo now and I now pretty much know that she goes through like 5-6 diapers. Sometimes she is annoying and chooses to poop right after I change her... Haha. Before 6 mo tho we probably go through 8-10 a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259547 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 08:02:15 +0000 Mrs D 2259547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amazon Subscribe and Save.</p> <p>$50/month...23 months old (Pampers for daytime and Huggies for night time) She goes through about 5-6 diapers a day.</p> <p>Was probably doing 8-10 diapers at that age though...but you get more in a box for the same price. I doubt it has ever been more than $60/month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259543 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 07:55:20 +0000 mfa_lady 2259543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We LOVE the Up &amp; Up brand at Target! They're super cheap, and also awesome. They're soft, and work really well for our LO.</p> <p>Also, TAKE HEART! Soon, she won't go through as many a day. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259474 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 05:11:00 +0000 yellowbird 2259474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>35ish a month. I buy when they are on sale and stock up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259376 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 21:15:13 +0000 MoonMoon 2259376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>26 months old. We've always used the Seventh Generation. We buy from Target for a bit under $20 per 2-pack. In size 4, that's 54: diapers, we use 4-5/day, which works out to... $50/month or so. We used a lot more when DS was younger, but the smaller sizes had more diapers, so the cost has been pretty steady I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259317 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 20:18:31 +0000 jhd 2259317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: They are generally the same price, but I think there are generally more coupons for Huggies on places like coupons.com etc. more often. I mostly use Hip2Save to find out what the deals are for each week and what coupons to use. Here's an example of this week's Target deals. Scroll down past all the food stuff and baby should be the next category. She explains what coupons to use and what you can expect to pay. If you are interested in shopping at Target sign up for their mobile coupons for baby and the Cartwheel app. There is occasionally a coupon on Cartwheel for 5% off diapers, but there are frequently mobile coupons for boxed Huggies diapers. So for example last week I bought two super packs of diapers, had two manufacturers coupons, one Target coupon, and got back $10 in gift cards. I used some gift cards I had from buying diapers last time so I only paid about $30 cash. Hope that makes sense. ;)</p> <p>ETA Here's the link: <a href="http://hip2save.com/2015/08/08/target-deals-89-815-2/" rel="nofollow">http://hip2save.com/2015/08/08/target-deals-89-815-2/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259281 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 19:43:38 +0000 PinkElephant 2259281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It does get cheaper eventually as the baby wears fewer each day! It's still $$$ though - I find buying ahead when there are special promos (I like to stack Pampers coupons with Target gift card offers, which they run every few months) helps, once you know you'll be in a particular size for awhile! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259263 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 19:35:56 +0000 namaste 2259263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$40-50/month Honest from Target.

I was cloth diapering and remember a day that I changed 18 diapers in one day. She just kept pooping! It gets better. After one we can get away with 5-7 a day depending on the number of poops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259228 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 18:45:44 +0000 DillonLion 2259228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also buy one huge box at Costco each month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259196 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 17:56:20 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2259196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy at Costco- we get maybe one box every 6 weeks or so, and the boxes are $35.99. So about 30'per month, roughly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259194 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 17:54:16 +0000 autumnlove 2259194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$20 per month (target brand) for LO 2 who uses a combo of cloth and disposables.</p> <p>Prob a lot more for my newborn. We will use cloth when she is bigger but she is under 6lbs and disposables are just easier right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259170 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 16:55:03 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2259170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$33.87 from amazon.ca. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259150 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 16:05:35 +0000 SweetiePie 2259150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: Can I ask where you find Huggies for less than Pampers? I now like Huggies and was always under the impression they were cheaper than Pampers, but everywhere I've looked they are exactly the same price! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259148 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 16:02:55 +0000 SweetiePie 2259148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: Definitely spent way more when DS was that age! Maybe $100 a month sounds right. Now at 11 months (today!) I'd say we only go through 4 diapers a day? (On average) so that same box of 100 would last us close to a month. Makes a really big difference. (Not just financially but also psychologically. I remember when it felt like ALL I did was change diapers. It was brutal!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259145 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 15:49:48 +0000 matador84 2259145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>75 month. I have two in diapers though. Def amazon subscribe and save is way to go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259144 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 15:44:37 +0000 QBbride 2259144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You will spend a lot less as they get older. Right now we go through diapers like crazy for DD (4 1/2 weeks) but for my son we buy a big box of Pampers Baby Dry on sale every month for $30 and it lasts us the month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259142 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 15:32:31 +0000 PurplePeony 2259142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$70ish. We do Amazon Mom/S&amp;S and get a "premium" brand (Bambo Nature) that usually runs about $65+tax for a 6-pack box. But we usually don't go through all of them before the next shipment comes, so every few months we push the delivery out a couple weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259138 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 15:14:56 +0000 Mamasig 2259138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe $50-55/month per kid? I buy the big case from sams. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259135 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 15:02:31 +0000 jhd 2259135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure without looking back at our budget, but I use coupons and save a bunch. We used Pampers when he was tiny but now we use Huggies. Check out the Krazy Coupon lady or Hip2Save for deals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259133 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 14:58:53 +0000 sera_87 2259133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I price match every time. For two kids (3 and 1) I probably spend 40-50$ a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259098 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 13:19:05 +0000 FaithFertility 2259098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 40-50 we too buy off Amazon or when I have really good coupons </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-spend-on-disposable-diapers-per-month#post-2259096 Sun, 09 Aug 2015 13:15:55 +0000 dc yoga bee 2259096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amazon subscribe and save. I got a case of Huggies for $32 last month. Out of the 216, we still have 70 or so diapers. She poops 1-3x a day or every other day now at 11 weeks. I also change where're she is wet, which is 6-7x a day. So, we still use on average 10 diapers a day. I don't like the Huggies so I'm going back to pampers swaddlers. But, I like the swaddlers sensitive the best, and don't want to order a case on the subscribe and save since I'm not sure how much longer she will be in size 1, and they don't have smaller sizes for subscribe and save. I always use coupons if I don't buy from Amazon. For example, they sent a bunch of baby coupons two weeks ago, and I have a $10 off $50 diapers and wipes coupon I will use at the end of this month for September. To answer your question I would say no more than $50 for diapers AND wipes. We buy big cases of Huggies or pampers wipes, and I usually find a coupon online or in the paper for those as well. I try to look at the price per diaper, and then when I see 17 cents or so, it doesn't hurt so bad lol. </p>
