\"Baby<\/p>\n

This post is sponsored by Thrive Market<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Daniel and I are both the kind of people who always leave things to the last minute. We go get more paper towels when we go to use a paper towel and discover we are all out. We buy more shampoo after we mix the remaining shampoo with water and run out of diluted shampoo like liquid. Now that we\u2019re adding a new member to the household, we really want to be more responsible about making sure we always have our essentials on hand. The sheer number of items you need for a baby is overwhelming, and you could be facing an emergency if you run out of any of them. A great solution for staying stocked up on baby supplies and other household essentials is Thrive Market<\/a>. Thrive Market is a membership community that offers a wide selection healthy food and natural products at wholesale prices, allowing members to save 25-50% off retail prices, and I\u2019ve got an exclusive offer for you all to take an additional 25% off on top of these savings by following my link<\/a>!<\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

I tried out Thrive Market to order some of our favorite natural food<\/a> items and some baby products<\/a> I\u2019m excited to try. In order to shop on Thrive Market you register for free and browse the products available. You decide what and when your order is placed you start a 30-day free trial. You can cancel any time or keep your membership for a full year for $59.95. And when you sign up for the year, you also sponsor a free membership for a low-income family.<\/p>\n

\"Thrive<\/p>\n

There is a huge selection of food<\/a>, beauty products<\/a>, health products<\/a>, housewares<\/a>, cleaning supplies<\/a>, pet supplies<\/a>, and essentials for babies<\/a>, kids, and new mothers. They have all the great natural and organic brands you know plus a house brand. The prices offer good value, too, because everything I bought was cheaper than I saw elsewhere online.<\/p>\n

Because we\u2019re prepping for our little boy, I was most focused on three types of products: baby stuff, new mom stuff, and snacks for when we arrive home from the hospital.<\/p>\n

\"Baby<\/p>\n

For baby products, I bought: Burt\u2019s Bees Baby Bee Shampoo and Wash<\/a>, Baby Bee Diaper Rash Ointment<\/a>, and Babo Botanicals Calming Baby Lotion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Products<\/p>\n

For new mom products, I got: Traditional Medicinals Mother\u2019s Milk Herbal Tea<\/a>, Earth Mama Organics Organic Nipple Butter<\/a>, and I very nearly bought my favorite brand of vitamins, which I just realized come in a postnatal formula: New Chapter Perfect Postnatal Vitamin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"snacks<\/p>\n

Of course I also headed over to the food section and couldn\u2019t resist picking out some healthy, quick snack foods for those days (and nights) when we\u2019re starving zombies with a newborn :) I chose: Organic Dry Roasted & Salted Cashews<\/a>, Siete Foods Sea Salt Grain-Free Tortilla Chips<\/a>, Simple Mills Almond Flour Pancake & Waffle Mix<\/a>, Simple Mills Farmhouse Cheddar Almond Flour Crackers<\/a>, Crunchy Falafel Chickpeas<\/a>, and Avocado Oil<\/a> (for high heat cooking!).<\/p>\n

Everything arrived perfectly packaged and just as advertised. We enjoyed some of the snacks right away and are so excited to try the baby stuff. If you are someone who enjoys natural and organic products, you will love Thrive Market<\/a>. The discounts they offer are substantial and if you use a few natural and organic products regularly, make sure to follow my link for an additional 25% off<\/a> already incredible savings and start your trial with\u00a0Thrive Market today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
