30+ Baby Freebies for New and Expecting Parents

Are you starting your family or adding some cuteness to your current household?

Congratulations!

After having my third baby girl last year, I can say for certain that babies are expensive. While I think they are worth every penny, I still try to save as much money as possible on diapers, wipes, and formula.

One saving strategy I rely on is requesting and using free baby samples.

Not all baby samples are truly free – some ave shipping charges or require you to sign up for a membership, so be aware of that. However, even with a shipping charge, your freebie can save you more than if you were to buy a similar product in the store.

My favorite 100% free samples come from registry goodie bags and formula companies.

Here are 30 great baby and mom freebies to check out:
