*The Thrifty + Also Mom 0-6 Month Buying guide is an interactive, clickable PDF. Every single item is linked and one click will take you directly to a store where you can purchase that item now (for example: this diaper balm) or—where your personal taste matters just as much as the product's function—to a page on Also Mom where you can choose your favorite from several options curated just for you (for example: these baby sun hats).

— What This Guide Will Help You Do —

  • Find the exact right products for your style and needs.
  • Sort through which products are actually the best for you (not your sister, your mom, or the lady who awkwardly touched your belly at the grocery store checkout).
  • Sort out what you need from what you may just want and help you prioritize accordingly.
  • Get consistent high-quality advice from a consistent trusted perspective.
  • Distill down all the information to just what you need to know now (there are future guides for future problems).
  • Help you develop the standard by which you want to live your motherhood experience, on your terms.

— A Little About You, Fellow Thrift Queen + Also Mom —

You may be on a budget, but that doesn’t mean you’re about to buy cheap junk. Quality is important to you, and you’re willing to spend good money on beautiful, well-made things now and then. You also know where to scrimp.

You’ve mastered the art of buying secondhand. Craigslist, garage sales, Facebook Marketplace… there are great deals to be had everywhere if you’re willing to look. (And you’re always willing to look.)

Your friends love your style and always ask you where you picked up that newest thing. You integrate bargain buys with more expensive pieces throughout your home and life, and somehow the whole thing comes off as insanely elevated. Turns out you don’t have to be a big spender to have covet-worthy possessions, you just have to hone the art of the find!
