Creating a Mommy Survival Kit

September 30, 2015 by Aliesha

Before having a new baby join your family, I highly recommend stocking up on baby items and creating a “Mommy Survival Kit”!

In the early days of having a baby, running out of diapers can be a huge inconvenience.  That’s why I always stock up before baby comes so I’ll be prepared!

Here are the essentials you should include in your Mommy Survival Kit

-diapers (even if you’re planning on cloth diapering, you will most likely want to use disposables for the first couple of months)

-wipes (you’ll go through these faster than you can imagine)

-baby wash (you’ll be giving lots of baths in those early days!)

-diaper rash cream (something you want to have on hand in case you need it)

-snacks for mom (you will be glad you stocked up on healthy, one-handed snacks!)

-chocolate (a piece a day keeps the baby blues away!)

Recently I had a chance to shop at Sam’s Club® for some baby items!  As you know, newborn babies go through a LOT of diapers, so I was excited to check out the options and everyday savings at Sam’s Club.

Even though it was nearing bedtime, my kids were excited to explore the store as well.  So many fun things to see!

A membership to Sam’s Club costs $45, but this includes over $80 in instant savings–coupons for items like diapers and wipes when you join online using this link.  It’s easy to see how you could easily save that initial $45!

Sam’s Club carries their own brand of diapers called Member’s Mark. They also stock Huggies diapers for an everyday savings–no couponing required!  I love that they carry a high quality store brand as well as my favorite national brands!

Another great benefit of a Sam’s Club membership is the club pick-up feature.  I just learned about this and I think it’s awesome!  You can place your order online, and then they will send you a text when it’s ready for pick-up.  Then, you just show up at the store and get your items–how convenient!

In case you don’t want to shop in store (which is totally understandable if you’re a mom of a new baby!), a Sam’s Club membership also allows you to conveniently shop at SamsClub.com.  They offer free shipping on many items, including diapers, wipes, and formula, and they also have a subscription service that allows you to ship your most-used products to your home at regular intervals.  Yay for not running out of diapers!

We use Desitin Diaper Rash Cream for diaper rashes, so I was excited to see the savings Sam’s Club offered on that product.

Shopping at Sam’s Club offers savings for the entire family, not just on baby items!  You can save on fresh produce, meat, dairy products, household supplies, baked goods, seasonal items, and so much more.

Sam’s Club provides big savings for growing families, join online using this link and get $80 in special savings on baby basics.
