This seems very expensive for what you get. So that’s a no from me.

I wish I’ve learned more about this box a few months ago when I delivered my baby. I have bought a lot of the products mentioned here, but still agree that the price for this box is a bit high. Would still love to see it reviewed though and if it’s ever on a discount, I may grab one as a gift for a pregnant friend or my future baby #2!

This is absolutely insane as far as price point! 9/10 we get a squirt bottle from the hospital and a ton of pads. They could weave those out and provide more options for mom. I dont even think a review would be worth it.

This would be like a one-time box gift for a new mother. For that price range, I’d expect a box of diapers and loads else All of these boxes being reviewed or potentially for review are so expensive. I’m not a cheapskate, but these companies also need to be relatable to their clientele unless their clientele is consistently only buying high end stuff (and the only high end things I buy are skincare items… and those usually last a while).

I wouldn’t mind a review but I’m guessing it’s going to say “some great products in here but to me it isn’t worth the price.”

I’d be interested to see one reviewed. I think it might be nice to give as a gift although my friends are all aging out of the pregnancy phase of life.

You are paying for convenience only. The cost is way too high for the items included.

$6.50 pads
$7.00 for 2 briefs
$15 mom washer
Approx $12 reusable perineal ice pack
$11 motherlove nipple cream
$12 for 6pk sitz bath
$17 calm drops
$11 sutz bath spray

About $85 worth of stuff, not counting coupons. Most you can get on Amazon, possibly bundling for free shipping. It’s not a bad idea, but it is overpriced.

Also, I’ve had three kids and about the only thing I’d be interested in trying from the above is the sitz bath stuff. The hospital sends underwear and pads and witchhazel and a squirter and lanolin.

Why is every new subscription you guys offer to review now expensive as hell? Stay relatable guys!

Unfortunately, a lot of subscription boxes are ridiculously priced. No fault of MSA. That’s why they are asking if they should even bother reviewing it.

Wow that’s a little harsh. I’m sure there is a wide arrange of people that subscribe to this site from all different walks of life. They are very relatable and reviewing this box would not change that. You don’t have to read the review…just read the ones that are RELATABLE to you. Wow…problem solved.

Well said Kristine. Idk why some folks think that all subs need to cater to EVERYONE. There are always going to be subs out of reach for me, and that’s ok. I still like the reviews.

Christy

Oh good God, no.

I actually received a MOMBOX after the birth of my second child. It was helpful!
