What have you bought?

[TwinMom]

I don't think we've covered this yet, unless I missed it while on vacation. I ordered 2 custom diapers, one from Muttaqin and one from Busy Bees, but that's all I've done so far. I did see a lovely, soft sleeper yesterday that I kept coming back to, but I didn't buy it. February just seems so far away! It's more fun to shop for baby stuff when you're big and waddly and actually FEEL pregnant instead of just sick, I guess.

So what have you guys bought for the new little ones?

I bought one of those 3-wheeled jogging strollers at a yardsale. That's it so far. We don't have room to store anything we aren't currently using. The stroller is stored in our landlord's barn.

Nothing yet :) We have all the cloth diapers left from dd as a baby, and most of her baby stuff. I will probably buy a few sleepers & stuff when we find out the gender in early Sept.

I always buy one gender neutral little sleeper when I'm suffering from morning sickness. It gets me through the worst times. Anyway, that's all I've bought. I have plenty of newborn diapers and everything else we could need. I do plan to get one of those "born at home" onesies and blankets from Granola Threads when the time gets closer.

Just a few covers. Wow are they teeny tiny! I keep holding them up to DD and thinking, "when were you that little?" We didn't start with cloth until DD was 6 mos so we don't have any newborn stuff.

I have bought things because the baby is coming but not things for the baby. We are going to redecorate the spare room for our dd to move in to, so the new baby can have the nursery. I am so glad I planned a neutral nursery to begin with so both babies can use it no matter what the next one's sex is.

There are things I plan to buy for the new baby, though:

A new crib mattress and mattress pad. (because my dd will use the current one in her toddler bed)

A new swing (we are tossing the old wind-up one we had because it sucks)

A new boppy (the last one we had we bought resale and it's sooooo flat)

Clothes (even if we have another girl, the season will be slightly off and we hardly have any 0-3 and 3-6 month clothes because we were really pinching pennies to afford the birth-center birth that our insurance didn't cover)

I bought a cuddlebuns pattern, for the preemie/newborn size. I'm ditching all my old newborn dipes and am planning to make an all-new stash of WIO's.
Other than that, there's not a thing I need to buy! I may make some new baby clothes, but I don't really need to - I've been picking up high-end finds from the Salvation Army all along, so I have quite the stash.

3 kissaluvs and 7 XS FBs :love DD keeps playing with them, saying "Baby"

Nothing so far.

I was lured in by FMBG's last posting. Bad, bad, bad :innocent

[lillaurensmomma]

diapers diapers diapers...and a few covers:) I have a lot of stuff left over from DD, so I dont need a lot. A friend gave me a double stroller and another loaned me her double electric pump, cradle swing (dd was a swing lover), pack 'n play (used for diaper changes downstairs and possibly as a napping place where #2 will be safe from big sis lol) and a lot of maternity clothes! I'm having way too much fun collecting things:)

I've bought some gender neutral clothes anda snugli (dh wants it) all at a couple of yard sales last weekend. I also bought a pack of onesies yesterday at Target since it was tax free weekend here. I'm getting ready to start the diaper binge, but I'm trying to wait until I get back from visiting family in Florida. My old thrift store haunts are amazing and will probably have some great baby stuff...I'm bringing an extra suitcase (for my parents to fill ;))

[Periwinkle]

Oh I am so avoiding all my favorite CD sites and TP Diapers forum or I'll go berserk. :)

So far just a unisex giraffe-print footie sleeper (dd and ds love giraffes so I think they'll love to see the baby in this!).

[milk_maker]

Too late! I just got two boxes of diapers and I have two more on the way. I've totally blown the baby budget this month, but I just couldn't resist such great deals. All I need now are a couple more dozen CPFs, a swing, and a changing table. I'm almost done and it's not even time!

[happymamajenni]

Last week I bought a "Winnie the Pooh" Graco swing for $40, and I loved putting it together and thinking about the baby swinging in it.
Since I already have tons of girl clothes, it would be cheaper if we have another girl, but a boy means I get to shop more. :thumb I am totally addicted to children's consignment stores....we have at least 10 in the area that I know of!

[HelloKitty]

Let's see, I have 2 dozen Loveybums diapers - which I ordered before I was even pregnant because I wanted to get in my order before she got too busy! :LOL I also have 3 or 4 diapers from different places. 3 wool soakers - they are sooooo lovely. One ivory colored sleep sack, two ivory onesies and one ivory outfit. That's it!!

We don't need much because we have everything leftover from our 20 month old. We will get some more new clothes and another dozen diapers plus a few covers oh and I think I want a baby hammock for napping because it looks so cozy (we co-sleep for night-time).
