Crazy how often they switch up the boxes. I had 3 back to back pregnancies(middle was a miscarriage) and got two boxes, one in june and one probably November or so last year and both boxes were very different. I did get the swaddle in my first box but the second I got a green halo swaddle. Got the dr brown bottle and paci in my first box and the second I got a ma'am bottle and paci. I bought the nanobebe pacis and liked it because my preemie could actually fit it in her tiny mouth unlike the Dr browns I had but the ma'am is even smaller(she only used a paci the first month or two anyways). I used the Avent bottles with my son and didn't have the colic piece but worked without issues, the Dr browns I used with my daughter leaked all the time and I tossed the stems immediately bc I didnt want to deal with them and then the nipples were constantly splitting when teething started but she didn't want to switch bottles. With my next I want to try the boon bottles they seem good. The comotomo tips over easy and you have to hold it upside down to get all the milk out and nipple flows super fast. All the little samples they give you I didn't think I'd remember to ever use then finally at 9 months when my daughter got a rash and the rash cream ran out I pulled the sample out before I could get to the store so don't part with them too soon if you think you won't use them or like something else! I've used the travel shampoo to pre wash clothes with stains in the sink on the go too and like them better for that purpose. Tide and dreft are no different as far as chemicals are concerned even free and clear, but you can use them on your own clothes or on things your about to donate anyways to freshen them up if you don't like waste. I think the bottles are useful regardless because it's free to try it out vs buying it and not liking it later on or just being able to see it and how it functions without ripping boxes open in a store. My daughter absolutely loves the Amazon swaddle with the zebras though it's her favorite blanket to touch it gets crinkly and soft after washing. It's small but still useful. Also I got lots of diaper samples in my first box. I didnt use the pump bag or disposable pads because I opted for cotton ones and storing in bottles. My second box I got Palmers lotion and oil I haven't used yet because I have tons of lotion but still keep them around.
Lots of great info here! I didn’t realize they switched up the Amazon box so often, either. It was quite different from my first pregnancy, but the Target box was pretty similar. I definitely agree with keeping the samples because you never know when you might need them! I keep all the little samples of baby stuff given to us in a drawer and use them as needed.

Im watching this with zero intention of having another baby. My kids are teens 🤣
I’m so glad you’re getting something out of this then 😂
Draft did not work for my first one, switched to all free and clear and plan to use that for when the newest is born.
All Free and Clear is definitely what I hear works most often!
