Stockpiling nappies?

Do you think I should stockpile nappies our youngest only has about 25 left and I wouldn’t normally get them until I go shopping but worried they won’t have her size etc. Has anyone else ?

I think, if it's worrying you then you should. You're only a few days buying some anyway!

@shellysheridan That’s true, it’s not like she isn’t going to use them defo worth it I think. Our local Tesco has ran out of toilet roll.

Yes I'd get a pack as if you suddenly can't go out for 2 weeks you are going to need them! My dd is only in nappies at night but I got a pack this week incase - it's not like they go out of date so they'll get used!

‘Stockpile’ as in have 2 weeks - up to a month’s supply, yes imo.

And buying one pack when you pretty much need some anyway is hardly stockpiling! Some people would have a pack in store as standard!

Yeah I think I will buy double what we normally get. She goes through around 4-6 a day and I will probably buy another pack or two of night nappies for her sister. May be worth buying more wipes as well.

I have a 2 year old and had the same dilemma today. In the end only got two packs, I figure if we’re at home in lockdown we may as well use the time to potty train. Wouldn’t be so fun if we’re actually ill.
