After having a baby, most moms will prioritize and prioritize the needs of their little ones over their own needs. Even if you look at the wishlist or online shopping cart, it will be dominated by children's needs. However, it is undeniable that this can break the pocket.

To meet the needs of their little ones, parents should know when is the right time to buy children's needs. Calculations like this are needed to avoid over budget and waste. Here are the recommended times for Moms and Dads to buy your little one's needs:

Monthly expenditure

In order to be able to manage expenses for your little one's needs, try to make a list of their needs based on priorities. In general, your little one's needs are about formula milk, diapers, food or snacks, toiletries, and clothes. You can fulfill your little one's monthly needs in various ways, you can buy them directly at the store or shop at e-commerce.

You can do price comparisons and take advantage of promos to save on shopping for your little one's needs. When your little one's monthly shopping, you can get around this by buying in large quantities. For example in buying diapers, milk and clothes. Monthly shopping for your little one's needs is considered more practical so parents don't have to bother to buy their little one's needs over and over again.

If parents are used to making a monthly shopping list for their little one, it can be a reference for shopping the next month. Are the main needs of your little one appropriate or not so that you can go back to making budget calculations. This can also help working mothers more easily meet the needs of their little ones without worrying about shortages.

When supplies run low

Parents can buy their little one's needs when the stock of their needs is running low. For example, your baby's diaper needs, if you see that the supply is getting low, you should buy it again for supplies. Don't wait for the diaper supply to run out completely, because you will be overwhelmed by changing pants and cleaning them when your little one can't hold back. You will also be in a hurry to buy it. Meanwhile, your little one can't wait to leave diapers if they haven't had toilet training.

Just like diapers, formula milk supply is very important to pay attention to. Moreover, milk is a much-needed intake of the little one. Especially if your little one depends on milk to help him sleep. For the need for drinking formula milk, it can actually be seen from the dose when serving it. As for newborns, formula milk is 45-90 ml every 2-3 hours. A two-month-old baby consumes 120-150 ml at each feeding and possibly every 3-4 hours. Infants aged 6 months and over feed 180-230 ml every 4-5 hours.

Compared to the need for milk that your little one can ask for more often to be made, perhaps diaper supplies are easier for parents to predict. Because the use of diapers can be calculated up to the price per unit. Reporting from various sources, the following is the average number of diaper usage based on age:

 Infants aged 0-1 months (newborn): 10-12 diapers per day and 320 diapers per month.

Infants aged 1-5 months: 8-10 diapers per day and 240 diapers per month.

Infants aged 5-9 months: 8 diapers per day and 240 diapers per month.

Infants aged 9-12 months: 8 diapers per day and 240 diapers per month.

From the habit of buying your little one's needs every month, you can certainly estimate your little one's needs such as diapers and milk from each use. So you can calculate when to buy and add stock again.

When to switch sizes

Formula feeding is also influenced by body weight. You should not give your baby more than 960 ml of formula per kilogram of body weight in a day. However, keep in mind that the needs of every baby are different depending on the appetite that varies from day to day.

Likewise with the needs of diapers and clothes. One of the tips for choosing the right diaper for your little one must be adjusted to their weight for comfort. So, choosing a diaper size is not based on age. This also applies to the choice of clothes for your little one. You should not stick to the recommended size based on age because the size of the baby is different at each age. And don't overdo it in buying one size of clothes, because your little one's development can grow rapidly.
