Oh Baby Boxes

What's in the box: Each box holds 7 to 8 full size pregnancy-safe items chosen to suit your stage of pregnancy, with postpartum boxes available after birth.

Oh Baby Boxes is a monthly subscription for expecting mothers, with boxes tailored to your due date and an option to switch to postpartum boxes after the baby arrives. You can start at any point in your pregnancy and choose monthly billing or prepay for 3, 6 or 9 months. Monthly billing is $44.99 per box, while prepaid plans bring the cost down to $42.99, $39.99 or $35.99 per box, with the 9 month plan costing $323.91 upfront. Shipping within the US is free. Each box promises 7 to 8 full size, pregnancy-safe products from what the company calls mom-vetted brands. The site guarantees over $100 in value per box and advertises up to $175, but retail value figures are hard to verify and only matter if you would have bought those items anyway. The site does not name specific brands or explain its product screening in detail, so shoppers with sensitivities or strong ingredient preferences may want to browse the past boxes shown on the site or contact the company before committing. The gift option is a real strength, since a prepaid plan makes an easy present for a pregnant friend. Overall it is a simple, fairly priced choice for someone who enjoys trying new products, and less useful if you already know exactly what you need.
