One-in-three families in America struggle to provide diapers for their baby! That statistic shocked me! Having four kids is a big decision, especially financially! That’s a LOT of diapers! Luckily, we usually never have more than one kid in diapers at the same time, but there is some crossover.
Diapers are a big expense with children and it’s sad that some families struggle with this. When I heard that Walgreens was partnering up with Huggies® to help the diaper need in america, I was so excited to be a part of it!
How Huggies® and Walgreens are helping the Diaper need in America
If you buy Huggies® Diapers or Wipes at any Walgreens store or at Walgreens.com, Huggies® will give a day’s worth of diapers or wipes to the National Diaper Bank Network! So even if Walgreens isn’t your normal stop for diapers, consider making the change for the month of April! You have until April 29, 2018 to be a part of this amazing opportunity!
Every family goes through hardships. It’s not always financial, but that’s definitely a big one!
I am enjoying this time right now with my third baby in diapers. With another one due in 9 weeks, I know my time with him being the “baby” is running short. He is getting closer to being potty trained and the diaper symbolizes a lot for me. I love to hold him and have our moments together during diaper changes. Even though he will most likely be in diapers for a little while after baby comes, his time as the “baby” will be over. I am cherishing that time as best as I can.
My favorite time to spend with my boys is after their bath time! We get to bond and connect for a few minutes. I love to sing to them, put lotion on them, and dress them! I have done this with each of them since they were babies and I still do it today!
This same day, I had a rare moment of getting to hug my littlest boy and rock him to sleep. He was never one to care for getting rocked to sleep – so this was a PRECIOUS and rare moment.
We are trying our best to prepare for baby number 4! One of the ways we do that is by buying a box or bag of diapers every now and then, in a few different sizes! We picked up a few bags of diapers at Walgreens to participate in this and we ALWAYS need wipes and I know I am going to get some of those.
Easy and Practical Ways To Help
There are a few ways that you can help the diaper need cause! Even if you don’t have kids in diapers, you could buy some for a friend or buy wipes just because they are great for everything! I know that so many people are grateful for a network like this and I am so thankful I can be a part of sharing about this awesome opportunity!
