Children are a blessing, but as you know if you have kids or have kids in your life, they need a lot of things! They expect to eat multiple times a day, they grow quickly and need clothes, and for the first couple of years, you have to buy diapers or some kind of alternative. But babies don’t have to be a budget drain—there are lots of hacks for saving money on babies, and since I have multiple children myself, I’ve written a lot about it. Here I’ve gathered all of my posts about saving money on babies so you can find helpful info all in one place.

I’ve divided the posts I’ve written into the basics, such as things to do BEFORE baby comes, and then tips on food and feeding, diapers, and clothes and baby gear.

Baby Registry Welcome Box Review Round-up
Many stores and websites will send you a welcome box with samples and other baby items if you start a registry with them. While this post is a few years old, it still has lots of helpful info about how to get started with these boxes. My friend’s son still sleeps with a blanket he got from one of these boxes!
