I am a sucker for free stuff, especially stuff that I want or need. And baby gear, coupons, parenting advice, breastfeeding supplies, toys for my kids and other stuff for new moms is what I need! So, I’ve put together a great list of discounts, deals, and freebies for new moms, pregnant women, and babies. Not every item on this list is 100% free; many simply require you to sign up for a newsletter. Some require you to buy the product the coupon is intended for, pay shipping and handling fees, or they do actually cost a few dollars, but are a great deal. I’ve tried to include all that information for you so there will be no surprises later. But, I feel like each of these items or deals are awesome savings for great products and opportunities, especially for new moms who want or need baby gear, coupons, samples, toys, or supplies. Enjoy my list of freebies for new moms and their kids!

Freebies for New Moms and Expecting Moms
Networks and Newsletters
When I was a pregnant woman, I heard that I needed to sign up for various mailing lists so that I would be in the know about free samples, discounts, and freebies. In fact, it was when I was pregnant that set up my first “junk email” where I would send all of my company sign ups, in order to make sure my personal email address stayed personal. I would still check my “junk email” address every day or so to make sure I didn’t miss any great deals or freebies and then delete truly unwanted emails. (I also periodically go through and unsubscribe from ones I don’t like. I recommend that too.) I still use this system today and am still signed up for several great new mom mailing lists! The following are some lists (and their benefits) that you should seriously consider signing up for in order to take advantage of so many great resources for new moms!

Diaper Savings
Disposable diapers can quickly eat up your budget if you let them. Trust me, with twins, I am very acquainted with the costs! The following are some ways you can score diapers for less, all of which I have tried and experimented with.
Diaper.com
One way is through Diapers.com. They are currently offering 20% off diapers for 3 months with promo code WOW3MONTHS4 with a max discount of $30, offer expiring June 30, 2014. Use the code once and your discount will automatically apply for the next three months. Or, if you can always score $10 off a case of diapers on your first order – simply use code “HEYMAMA10.” Orders $49 or more always ship free!
Amazon Mom
Or you can Join Amazon Mom and order diapers at discounted prices, delivered monthly to your door (along with other household or baby supplies for extra savings). I used to use Amazon Mom religiously when my twins were babies (I desperately needed diaper savings!). If you also want a prime membership, it’s a great option!
Diaper Coupons
However, I like couponing, and found a great way to score cheap diapers at Target. Just be sure to look online for coupons and then save in the store.
