Money saving baby tips

Help your baby avoid serious diaper rash for pennies a day. Petroleum jelly offers the perfect daily protection for your baby, and at a fraction of the cost of diaper creams and ointments. Petroleum jelly is gentle on a baby´s skin. However, serious diaper rashes may require medicated creams.

Are you looking for a low cost alternative to baby wipes? Try cutting a paper towel roll in half, so you end up with two halves that look like paper rolls. Then mix 1.5 cups of water with a tablespoon of baby shampoo and one tablespoon of baby oil. Place the paper towels in an airtight container, and pour the liquid over the towels. Once the towels are good and wet, remove the cardboard core. You are now ready to pull your paper towels out of the center!

So where do you put your petroleum jelly and homemade baby wipes? We suggest this low cost alternative to expensive bathroom baby organizers. Place a plastic shoe bag on the back of the bathroom door for storing your baby´s things. This is the perfect place for storing the baby necessities like lotions, medicated cremes, and baby wipes. And this storage space does not take up any counter space or shelving in your bathroom!

It sure can be a hassle running back to the changing table every time your toddler needs a change. Try stocking a basket with diapers, wipes, onesies, a couple baby toys, and a changing pad. Your portable baby changing station will be ready when you are - anytime and anywhere.
