Back To Reality...

As I am writing this post and watching this show called "OMG! Sextuplets". On this episode ( at least I think it is an episode) their babies are soo tiny! Me and My husband were doing an estimate on how much we need to save up just to afford our babies I will show you our list! Here it Goes;
Baby Trend Triplet Stroller = $250.00 x (2)
Graco SnugRide Infant Carseat - Devon = 110 x (6)
Da Vinci Annabelle Mini Crib - Antique White = $183 x( 6)
Toybox Bassinet - Ecru Waffle Pleated = $80 x (6)
Natural Diaper Corner Baby Changing Table = 170 x(1)
Boppy® Rock in Comfort™ Travel Swing = 70 x(6)
Nature's Purest High Chair - Hug Me= 100 x(6)
Pampers 92Ct Swaddlers Diaper Value Box - Newborn= $24 x 120 (50-60 diapers a day)
Pampers Sensitive Baby Wipes Refill - 210Ct = 7.00 x (360 ) roughly
Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Deluxe Gift Set = 50x (4-6)
Mother's Touch Deluxe Baby Bather Gift Set - 40 x (1)
Estimated Total = 9248


And that's just half of it! This doesn't include clothes, formula, bedding and etc.! I also have my girls to pay for!

Do you have a registry yet? If so, make sure you are posting in on here. You'd be surprised at the kindness of everyone on here ^_^

Also make sure you are thinking about the local stores that sell the used items. They may not be perfect, but when you are going to have that many children at once, it can be a life saver.

Another thing to consider is cloth diapers. You would have to buy a few packs, and maybe get some of the disposables for when you go into the outside world, but in the end they would save you a lot of money. Of course, you'd have to make maybe.. 10 minutes a day for laundry, and an extra 1-2 minutes per change for the pinning of the diaper.

With cloth diapers too, there's little to no diaper rash. I can imagine 6 babies with diaper rash, not that fun.

Lastly, I know you can do it! You're a mommy and a mommy-to-be, you're basically super-woman. You're doing what a lot of others would not be able to do, and that deserves an award, really! Keep up the good work, and remember not to stress too much!!!!

DO NOT send this person anything. Her story is all a lie. She is all over the internet posing as a mom expecting multiples, and all sorts of nonsense. She is a FAKE! For more information check out www.exposetrolls.blogspot.com.

Ditto to what MoM says.
She is a big fat fake and she's been exposed.
