In 1 day I’ll be 12 weeks do you think it’s to early to start going baby shopping ? Like neutral onesis etc being that I don’t find the sex out till July .. I just don’t wanna be overwhelmed later on by trying to get so much stuff & the baby shower & gender reveal already looking like it’s going to cost about 7 grand 😮‍💨🤣

Girl don’t spend all that on no reveal and baby shower lbs it’s not worth it. But for now you can buy diapers and wipes if you want

It's so bad that the song sticks in your head like baby shark but instead it's the one jumping up and down in muddy puddles 😂!!! I just can't understand why kids get so addicted to the cartoon but if she's happy I can't complain

Anyone in Colorado know how much a circumcision cost? I guess Medicaid doesn't cover it anymore.

You should check with your pediatrician or the hospital depending on when you get it done. Medicaid paid for my son 2 years ago and I’m in Texas, with my oldest son I had to pay but that was 16 years ago.

I called the OB and they said they weren't sure. Called the hospital billing department and they wanted some code that I don't have. I'll try calling a pediatrician

Although my partner and I both work and make decent money I’m still feeling so much stress about money and financially supporting a baby especially with the rise of cost in everything these days. Any other moms to be feeling the same? I’m already stressing about the cost of childcare alone.

Yes, you’re not alone on this. Everything is so expensive it almost makes more sense for me to stay home once baby comes cus after daycare expensive I’ll literally be taking home like nothing after taxes and childcare for 2 kids. I make decent money too. It’s crazy

It’s scary really and the U.S leave policy is trash so doesn’t help in that sense either.

We have our 3D ultrasound tomorrow and I’m soooo excited, but also super nervous we’ll spend $200 and not get good pictures 😩 I read you’re supposed to drink a ton of water and I hate to admit it, but I’m so bad at drinking as much water as I should. I hope my own mistakes don’t cost us 😅

Is that what the studio is telling you specifically? To drink a lot of water? Good luck!! 🤞🏼 I got some this week when I had my regular ultrasound & I was definitely not expecting that but baby was cooperating so the tech did them. Saved me hundreds.

$200?? What kind of studio are you going to that charge that much?

it’s actually $170 I think but I like to round up everything. It annoys my fiancé 🤣 it’s just a ultrasound clinic that specializes in the 3D ones. They offer like 5 packages. Ours is so much because it’s longer, includes more photos, and we get a recording of baby’s heartbeat in a stuffed animal.

Hey mommas I finally rolled my round self in town to the post office. And this is how much it is going to cost to ship the baby formula per box. None of your money is going to me in any way shape or form so know that I am not doing this for money. Just want to be a blessing with what I have been blessed with. There are 6 cans in each box. Cashapp $21.50 to $ShalomDoula if you want more than 6 cans you will have to let me know because shipping will change in the for box in cashapp write baby formula.
