Pregnancy Community Chat Forum - baby clothes have arrived :)

ok ive been ordering stuff off ebay lately and im glad i have. so far for the baby i have
a pair of white dungarees with a giraffe on it up to 11lbs
5 white vests (i think my mum has a couple aswell) all 0-3 months
4 sleepsuits (my mum would have some aswell) all 0-3 months
2 yellow and white striped bibs
and, i couldnt resist, a yellow dressing gown 0-3 months
i dont think ill have to buy much more 0-3 months, but obviously some outfits when i know the sex would be ideal. think i might wait for my 36 week scan to find out for sure, since paying 80.00 is a bit much! so at the moment its a yellowish - blue bump Smile

hehe
oh and i need new bras. ive definately gone up a cup size. these bras arent doing anything whatsoever anymore might buy some sports bras. theyre cheaper and ill be using them after the birth aswell, or even before if i start to leak and need to use breast pads

and theyre so much cheaper on ebay. i know theyve been used before, but you cant even tell. the people who sell on ebay obviously buy lots and lots of clothes and the babies only wear them a couple of times, which is a waste of money

yeah, all the ones ive got have been in good condition and soo cute and its like a bunch of different stuff so its not like here where everykid has pretty much the same outfits. I need to start a selling account on there to get rid of baby clothes but i might wait until we are stateside and i have avehicle to be able to ship the stuff out when i need to.

i never needed to buy much for william either because i was giving alot by bobbys cousin. and if its a girl we'll be in the same situation since both bobbys mum and cousin have had girls last year

I gave a bunch of stuff to a few of my friends here and in the states of the baby stuff i had but i still got lots from like 12mths up for boy and 6-9mths up for girls.

get 3 big packs to start with and then if you find s/he is still in them then buy more. I made the mistake of buying loads and by the time i'd used 3 packs Layla was up to the next size.

i really cannot remember how many i bought but it must've been enough because i didnt need to buy any more and i didnt have any leftover

how big was william at birth? finn never fit into newborn diapers, so i have a pack leftover from him for esme. i'm getting a big package of size 1's and that should hold us over for awhile. oh, and the hospital will give us diapers before we go home too.

i love ebay. i'm currently addicted to finding adorable baby girl clothes. i just got this the other night-

Maybe I over estimated. Perhaps just getting one pack and see if they fit him or her

i wouldnt buy to many newborn diapers, i think i only went through one pack with joseph and he was in size 1, i had to actually return some diapers cuz i bought to many. i would get one maybe 2 at most of newborn and start getting some size 1's and 2's they seem to stay in those longer then anything else.
