My best advice is to
coupon and get diapers as well as everything else you need little by little so when the baby arrives I focus on bills and not bills plus baby needs. By the time they do a shower for us e will have had diapers from size 1-4, clothing, baby items that e got cheap like swing and crib, as week as toilet items, laundry soap, hand soap, lotion, as well as body wash and shampoo and conditioner.
