Noobie Subscription Box Review: Pregnancy and Eat Boxes – September 2017

BOX: 

Noobie Box

 

COST:

A Year Of Wonders (4 Boxes at one time or 1 box per quarter): $99.75 plus $6.95 flat rate shipping (or $24.95 plus $6.95 flat rate shipping per quarter)

Note: You select a Boy/Neutral or Girl for the first box (Noobie Nest).

OR

You can purchase one or more of the boxes from the Year of Wonders individually for $24.95 plus shipping

They are

Noobie Nest (0+ months) and you select Boy/Neutral or Girl Box

Noobie Eat (4+ months)

Noobie Play (7+ months)

BUT THERE IS MORE!

You can also add in the Free Pregnancy Box to your cart!

Notes: 

(1) You must be living on the East Coast or get someone to get these box(es) for you from the East Coast.

(2) I highly suggest you at least purchase one box and add the free pregnancy box to take advantage of the $6.95 flat rate shipping (i.e., you are basically paying $6.95 for the free pregnancy box so why not add a box on top of that).

I am such an enabler.

 

Sit Down and Get Comfortable: 

This is what Noobie has on its box.

I think I might permanently change this header!

 

Relax and Sit Back: 

Ok so I (via an East Coast Friend) ordered the Noobie Eat and the Free Pregnancy Box. Before subscription boxes entered my life but after my GWP addiction there were boxes (of stuff). Particularly it was either Sephora boxes or Baby boxes.

So making this purchase made me smile of how much less of a workout my wallet was taken pre-sub days lol. 

I digress, let’s take a look at these boxes!

Noobie Box

Both the boxes have identical backsides and for the most part are similar. They are very sturdy and can be repurposed as a newborn memory box.

Also the first view of the boxes are similar.

Noobie Box

I am going to start out with the Pregnancy Box. Most of the items will be part of a baby shower gift so they will be unopened.

Noobie Pregnancy Box

First peek reveals that there is some variations in the pregnancy box.

Variations make me twitchy.

Noobie Pregnancy Box

Ahhhh my WaterWipes makes a comeback!

Maybe every littles box I order should have WaterWipes in them. Thereby never having to pay $$$$ for them. I can dream. I can dream that all my black eyeliners convert to WaterWipes. I is weird.

WaterWipes

WaterWipes Travel Pack

Oh my goodness, when I run out of these wipes I really shouldn’t buy another pack of them. These have the nice amount of thickness with wetness. They are 99.9% water so you can use them for basically anything.

I might self-enable myself at times. 

 

care/of Personalized Vitamins

care/of Personalized Vitamins

Ok this is neat even though its not a gummy vitamin. You know that I complain on having horse pill samples in subscription boxes. Even though this subscription does not have any gummies (for shame) you can customize your very own vitamin cocktail and have it mailed to you monthly.

They have a ton of vitamins of the legal variety.

 

Chatbooks Monthly Growth Cards

Chatbooks Monthly Growth Cards

This is actually nice and neutral great for first child in which you can virtually guarantee this kid is going to get its monthly shot with these stickers! Chatbooks is one of those pictures converted into books websites. They even have a collaborations with Rifle Paper!

Rifle Paper = one of those good subscription box stationery brands.

 

Carters Button PJ in 3 Months
Carters Button PJ in 3 Months

Carters Button PJ in 3 Months

Oh this is so soft! I go back in forth on which I like better (buttons or zipper) PJs. Its usually zippers but when its late night and the zipper gets stuck that sucks.

A question (buttons or zippers) I will always be debating in my mind. 

 

MAM Bottle

MAM Bottle

The next time I have a mom who bottle feeds her baby but has trouble with finding the perfect bottle she will be lucky to be friends with me.

Because I have a whole army of new bottle samples (mostly not from subscription boxes oh please do not add free bottle samples to subscription boxes). I digress. 

 

Lanisoh Samples

Lanisoh Samples

This brand has the best storage bags and boob therapy pads ever! I like their new nursing pads better than their old ones those were scratchy.

No one needs scratchy nips.

Noobie Pregnancy Box

 

And here is the spotlight box of the post!

Noobie Eat

Even though some peeps start their bebes on food at 4 months, I start them on some powdered baby food (I see that there is a new brand sample of that in this box) and baby led wean them at 6 months. Most of these products will be used for my toddler Squeakette though!

Squeakette LOVES pouches. Seriously. Addicted. What does Rachel Zoe say? I have another brand that has a hard top and its a pain to clean. I have not gotten around to buying a soft top refillable pouch so thank you subscription boxes!!!

Obsessed. Squeakette is obsessed with pouches. She could be on a pouch diet if we let her. 

 

Carters Bib

Carters Bib

This is such a classic first baby bib. You know you get it because its so soft and the animals. The baby animals! And you are busy talking to your baby and the baby animals.

What? You don’t talk to the baby animals in baby clothing?

 

Spuni

These spoons came from Germany to me. We always can use more baby spoons in this house (of squirrels).

Less messy it advertises *snorts*

 

Beaba Tower

Beaba Tower

Man I have amassed quite a bit of these snack/formula towers I could give quite a review on them! This would be perfect for a little one that take more snacks than formula. If you are looking for a formula tower go slimmer and try this. If you are looking for a toddler/kid snack tower try this.

All towers are Pnut reviewed and approved. It is just a matter of diaper bag tetris. 

 

Amara Organic Baby Food

Amara Organic Baby Food

Oh I am looking forward to comparing this to my NurturMe stash. If it does not go well I could always sneak it into regular food on the sly….

I have secret powder food injector powers.

 

Baby Buddy finger toothbrush

Baby Buddy finger toothbrush

Oh I used something like this 3 babies ago! I wonder whether I should. I might start to forget. I probably will forget All of 3 like getting their teeth brushed by their parents so I would not go out and say this is a game changer. But its good for them. But maybe it should go to a new momma who would remember to use this.

This might be better purposed in a shower gift… but my bebe’s gums!!!

All Together Now!!!

Noobie Eat Box

Verdict:

I love Noobie. Its nice to get a box from a subscription box service without paying for the whole subscription or paying an higher a la carte fee. I will use all but the bib from the Noobie Eat Box. I am still fighting internally over whether to keep that silicone toothbrush. Ahhh its going to go with a shower gift I will go to my mainstay baby washcloths when I actually remember. My bebes get their teeth late around 10 months and by then they get an itty bitty toothbrush with a smidge of infant natural toothpaste.

But I digress, for now its a gummy smile with an occasional washcloth wipe 😉

 

What do you think of Noobie Box? Do you wish that you can convert your pile of subscription box Xs into Zs?

Share below any thoughts (randoms thoughts are always welcomed here) that you may have!

    Not having kids, I can’t comment on these items but you always keep things fun! And really I just wanted to say that variations make me twitchy too…

      For a good witty time, read Pnut’s posts. All of them 😉

      Thanks Heat 🙂

    Pnut, my dear sister is preggo, and I will need your top bebe product/box recommendations at some point! She will be a crunchy mama and bebe will have a stay at home dad.

      Awwwww congrats!

      So sweet to think of my recs 🙂 I am pretty sure if she is crunchy she has already gotten all the green cleaning stuff! Exception to keep will be Blue Dawn (this is great for laundry stains, cloth diapers, and reusable nursing pads). She should start now ordering a little bit of the other two items I mentioned to see what she what she prefers when bebe arrives. I suggest a Planet Wise dry/wet bag. I do Luvs diapers lol and have a variety of nursing pads but I prefer disposables.

      If you are able, I highly suggest Ecocentric Mom as a box subscription. I was blown away by the recent box which I have the picts uploaded on the media library so you can have a sneak preview. I am so close to ordering a Mom/Baby box because one of the items you can choose is an Aden and Anais swaddle but I have a million swaddles (but I use them all unlike my black eyeliners arsenal)…

      I digress, I will ask Subista whether I can do a post of top bebe product/box recs. Hopefully I could get something up before Black Friday.
