Hopefully this is an easy question....

Anybody know if diapers, formula, baby food, etc. are available anywhere on the WDW Campus?

We are bringing down the little one for a couple of weeks and hope not to drag 2 weeks worth of supplies with us on the airplane. Diapers, especially, take up alot of room.

We do not plan on renting a car and would like to rely on WDW 100% for everything we need.

Any info is appreciated....

I'm sure all of these things are available on property, but have you thought about shipping these items to yourself at the resort a few days before? Its very likely the shipping cost for ground delivery will be somewhat cheaper than buying all of this on site.

Or how about getting a town car rental to bring you from the airport to the hotel and stopping at the store on the way? Most do that without a problem. I know FLTours does and they are a site sponsor. It will save you a ton of money and be a lot more convenient.

These items can be found in the "General Stores" that each resort have. You may not find your brand and you'll definitely going to pay more, but you'll survive.

I definately saw huggies when we were at BCV. It was a small expensive pack. I don't remember about formula (wasn't using at the time).

If the towncar service and grocery stop doesn't work for you (It wouldn't have for us last trip), look into this shopping service:

If I recall correctly, Disney only sells Carnation brand formulas. If your baby has a problems with those, you might want to bring your own. Another thing to consider is the water. I always bought spring water to use to mix with my children's formula.

I do, however, agree with Happy Birthday Cat. Your best bet is to get a town car to take you from the airport to your hotel and have them stop at the market. There are several companies who do this and I'm sure if you looked through some old threads you could find a few recommendations.

Finally, I believe that at the baby centers in each park you can purchase baby supplies (diapers, wipes, formula, food, etc.). Probably not in any large quantities, but certainly enough to get you through a day at the park.

We went down in November and I mailed myself a package via snail mail. I put diapers and wipes, along with extra batteries, film, cereal, coffee, tea, and pancake mix. It was there waiting for me. Call your resort and ask what address you should use for shipping something to yourself. I shipped my about 2 weeks in advance just to be sure it made it before I did!

Also, I thoroughly agree with DVCDawn about using spring/bottled water for mixing powdered formula. Vacation is the last place you want your baby to be adversely effected by different water.

Have a wonderful vacation!

They do only sell Carnation formula. I would also use bottled water to mix up bottle. And it would be A LOT cheaper to mail a pkg to your hotel beforehand!

Diapers, Formula, etc are also available at the Baby Care Centers inside each park. I even spotted some really cute bibs at the Epcot Baby Care Center.
Of course prices will be higher on property and they are in smaller packages, but it sure is handy.

watch out for spring water with infants. Use distilled water or non-spring water (a lot of bottled water is regular tap water that has been purified). We were told not to use spring water for cgildren under 1 yr. old.
