How much does it cost a week to raise a baby?
Shampoo, creams etc can be bought once a month and last that long, if not longer. For £10 you can buy Sudocrem/Bepanthen, Johnson’s baby shampoo, baby bath, baby oil and/or baby lotion. Per week you have the cost of formula which costs from £6-8 depending on the brand you buy. Nappies cost anywhere between £2-5 depending, again, on whether it’s store or name brand. Wet wipes can be picked up in deals for £2-3 for packs of two or three lasting all week. For babies you can buy everything you need per week for around £20 or less. It isn’t as expensive as people make it out to be. Once the baby is 6 months they’ll be moving on to solid foods which requires you either buy a blender and blend any food you eat for the baby which is healthy and recommended or you buy pre-made meals in jars and boxes that can cost anywhere from 35p to 90p per jar. Tesco’s usually have deals of 8 jars for £5-6 but these differ from supermarket to supermarket and it depends on the type of food you want to feed yo
