1
Get at least one small package of diapers in newborn size, and one larger package in the next size. Some newborns are already too big for newborn-size diapers when they come home.

Step2
Test drive store or generic brands on your baby for comfort and leak protection. Many have the same features (like expandable sides) as premium diapers such as Huggies and Pampers. Don't stock up on any one brand until you know what works for you and yours.

Step3
If you have the available storage space, join a warehouse club for prices that have nonmembers drooling. Or, order in bulk online. Many sites offer free shipping for large purchases, so you won't have to schlepp jumbo packs around. Disposable diapers and wipes can run $50 a month. See How to Shop the Warehouse Stores.
