Yes diapers are expensive. I'm so happy that I'm out of that stage. My kids are four and eight now. I usually get diapers and then I always try and get the mom something. I call it like a little postpartum kit. Just stuff that I help with like stretch marks, little books regarding like breastfeeding if that's what they're doing. And also like some bubble bath, you know, things that can sit in and chill in and relax in because it is hard work especially at first six to eight weeks.
