Why are diapers so expensive?
There are a couple of ‘facts’ listed here that don’t line up with my current reality and very recent knowledge (3 kids, most recent is 18mo).First off, 12 changes a day is a huge outlier - even for a newborn.  8 would be a more reasonable number, and it drops down to the 4-6 range in the first year, and by now we’re at 3 if we don’t go swimming.Second item that sounds waaay off is $1000/yr for diapers.  Again, that has to be an outlier based on the worst possible set of assumptions. A box of 168 diapers lasts about a month and costs ~$40.  That doesn’t add up...And finally, many of the charities I work with will hand out diapers or cards for free diapers to anyone who asks.  If you’re really in a bind, call a local church, women’s shelter, or commissary!  We really do want to help, but we have to know you need it.
