How many baby diapers needs a newborn?

I am first time mother and I want to begin buying diapers for my baby and I am wondering how many a newborn needs and what size do I need to buy for just newborn or the #1 or 2. Can you advice me?

1. If he is born under 8 lbs buy the NB (newborn) size if over 8 lbs. buy size 1. As far as how many... a baby can go thru 6-9 changes in a day! Congrats & good luck!
2. It really depends on how big your baby is when he/she is born. My daughter was in newborn diapers for about 4 months. Size one for a couple months, ect. She weighed about 8lbs when she was finally in size 1. As for how many, I'd say you will go through 8-10 a day. So thats about 70 a week, hopefully a few less!! Congrats!
3. i bought size one in case my baby would be big. the newborns are okay for tiny 5lbs to 7 lbs but use them fast because babies grow fast and don't buy too much of it. i bought tons of boxes of the size 1
4. you can get 1 package of the newborn size and then 2 of the size 1 diapers and then take it from there. They grow really fast in the beginning so don't load up on newborn diapers. Hospitals sometimes give you newborn diapers also.
