Are you going to buy any clothes for the baby. I am dying to buy baby clothes, but I cant find ANYTHING that is gender neutral. . .

I haven't bought too much----mostly 0-3 and some 3-6 stuff, but I figure after that I will want boy or girl stuff, not all yellow & green

I have some stuff. Carter's carries a lot of neutral clothing. My mother is so excited that she couldn't stop herself!

Re: For those that are not finding out the sex...

I haven't bought anything myself other than a few souvenir onesies from places I've been during my pregnancy. I have gotten plenty of gifts so far (2 drawers of clothes so far and I haven't had my shower yet).

I'd rather save my $$$ to spend on clothing when baby comes since I know I'll get my fill of green/yellow and white stuff.

I bought a few things I just couldnt resist which were gender neutral (most where holiday themed items) Then I also bought a coming home outfit, in both girl and boy and had DH wash the appropriate one before I brought my son home.

You will get a lot of clothes as shower gifts and then when the baby is born.so I wouldnt go nuts. Plus for the first few weeks all the baby will really be in is PJs so you dont need too many "cutsie" things, I would save the shopping for when they are alittle older and you have places to go with cuter outfits.

Re: For those that are not finding out the sex...

When I was preggo with my DD we didn't find out the sex, and I told everyone not to get me clothes at my baby shower cause I hate green and yellow. So I went out and got some outfits for both sex's and then just returned the ones I didn't need and got more of the clothes I did need, it was easy.

For this baby, I already have tons of girl clothes, so I just need to buy a few boy clothes just incase.

I haven't found anything I like that's gender neutral. I too may buy a few things in both girl and boy colors and return what I don't use. I figure after the baby's born it will give me an excuse to run to the nearby Old Navy and let DH babysit for an hour.

I will say that its hard finding clothes. But from what i've seen, BRU has a huge selection of clothes!

Otherwise i haven't bought anything really. Gap and Carters just doesn't seem to have a lot of gender neutral. Chat Icon

Target and babies r us a lot of neutral colored clothes.
Remember you only need about a weeks worth of baby clothes. You can buy the gender friendly colors after the baby is born.Chat Icon Chat Icon

I did the same thing - lot's of gender neutral onesies, sfooted sleepers, towels, bathrobes, receiving blankets... I found that BRU had TONS of stuff suitable for a boy or girl.
