While the specific checklist mentioned in this post has been updated, Walmart’s registry is actually a total game-changer. It’s packed with expert advice and curated ‘must-have’ lists, and it’s a great tool. I highly recommend checking it out.

Originally published in 2013 as a sponsored collaboration with Walmart.; updated in April 2026 to reflect current product availability and registry tools.

I remember planning my baby shower; I was so stressed out about the whole deal I wanted to say, “Forget it.” Seriously, have you ever wondered how to plan a baby shower? It sounds easy and fun, but when you have never planned one, are fixing to pop, and are worried about so many other things it’s ridiculous, it’s not so easy. 

I was HUGE and pregnant, and the last thing I wanted to worry about was planning a shower; thankfully, I had some help because I seriously had no idea where to start.

HUGE shout-out to my sister-in-law for everything she did. However, I did learn the value of a checklist during all this, lol. We didn’t have one; it certainly would have made things so much easier and more organized for sure. So I certainly wanted to take a few minutes and let you know about the checklist on Walmart. Yes, if you are planning your shower, be sure to check out Walmart’s Every Little Step web page. It has all kinds of great information, especially for new moms who are totally freaking out because their sister forgot about them. I probably will never let her live that one down, lol.

The checklist on the Every Little Step web page gives planners a step-by-step guide to planning the perfect baby shower. It’s very detailed, explaining what things you should be doing seven weeks before the date of the shower, six weeks before, and so on. This is a great list for anyone who is planning the shower—mom, sister, aunt, grandma, or anyone else lending a hand.

Another thing I wish I would have given more thought to was preparing more financially for the baby. We planned everything but skipped talking about our financial situation. I guess we figured everything was okay, so we could afford it. WOW, I can honestly tell you I had no idea how much bringing a baby into this world costs.

While I was over at Every Little Step of the Way, I read that most middle-income families spend more than $165,000 raising a child to the age of 18. That is if you are lucky enough to do things naturally, so much more if you have to pay adoption costs, private schools, after-school lessons, or college, which I am sure you already know can add an easy couple of $100,000.

I almost fell out of my chair when I remembered we had 4 kids and are fixing to have another one. WHAT, that’s a whole lot of cash! I cannot think of a better way to spend my money, but it also made me realize how important preparing financially is for a baby. Be sure to check out Walmart’s Every Little Step web page; there is some useful information about preparing financially for a baby.

Finally A One Web Page That Helps Every Little Step of The Way

Walmart’s Every Little Step web page has tons of great information for new moms, experienced moms (if there is such a thing), as well as anyone else who has a little one in their life. Whether it is shopping for the best products for our baby, looking for the most reliable products, tips on potty training, a place to turn when you have concerns about your newborn, or even a good laugh, it’s your one-stop shop for baby essentials.

You will find plenty of useful information on Walmart’s Every Little Step web page, sponsored by HUGGIES®. I have to admit one of my favorite parts is the blowouts and fits: Stories from exhausted parents. We all know that life gets MUCH messier once we have a baby; at times it can be downright GROSS. The funny thing is no matter what, we wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world, so why not laugh about it, right?!?! Then you will enjoy reading stories from tired parents. What do you do when poop hits the fan in your house? Swing by and share your moment of pooping on the fan, wall, or any other place it doesn’t belong. Oh, it happens!

If you are a mom or have a new baby in your life, I suggest swinging by Walmart’s Every Little Step website and reading 10 newborn worries (not to fret about), learning baby basics, and checking out the breastfeeding center. I wish I would have had all this information in one place when Mattie was a baby. At least I know where to go when we have the next one—it’s going to save so much time jumping from website to website, and my mom will be happy I am not calling her 7 times a day while she is at work.
