They also offer emergency baby supplies for a price. I went for a quick visit Thursday afternoon and once there realized that I didn't have the diapers in my bag that I thought I did. So, i can report that diapers (all sizes) are $1 a piece. I asked and the costs for formula are are $3 for ready mixed and $15 for powdered. I didn't see the sizes of the containers, but I would gues that the ready mixed would be one bottles worth of formula and the powder would the small cans that usually go for $10 at the store. I thought the lady helping me said they were enfimil formula, but that can't be right because Nestle sponsers the baby center. They've got to be good start brand. (The diapers were Huggies brand). I've also seen bottles, wipes, and Gerber 1st, 2nd, and 3rd foods in the cabinettes. Overall, based on the two prices I do have I would guess that you're going to much much better off bringing your own supplies, but in the case of emergency you've got a source. I've always wondered what the prices are for some of those emergency items and thought some of you parents would be interested too. I'll keep asking as I go in over the next couple of months and assemble a complete list.

Along with that, before thinking of the baby center. (which we thought was strictly for changing and feeding) we had hit EVERY store hoping to find a bottle, we found every type of sippy cup but no bottles. We would have wasted less time if we had just gone back to the hotel.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Exactly, ajnhollysmommy! Our grandson had only had those frou frou bottles and DD was unsure about the plain old Gerber but he took it just fine. Maybe the babies knew they were on vacation and were up to trying something new Another great thing about the Baby Center on a hot humid August day is the AIR CONDITIONING!! Changing a poopy diaper has never been so heavenly
