People may give clothes regardless but usually they like to pick out what THEY think is cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302989 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 16:02:47 +0000 birdofafeather 302989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: i HOPE this happens (clothes plus our registry things) but i know with baby girls people just can't help themselves and must buy clothes. my neighbor is having a boy and she got so.many.clothes! i am not registering for ANY clothes and have the onesies we want in another wish list. i'd rather buy those than the other things that we need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302854 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:56:49 +0000 DillonLion 302854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Same. Only plain white onesies in each size on my registry. No other clothes at all (besides sleep sacks). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302852 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:55:52 +0000 heffalump 302852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only clothes I registered for were plain white onesies, like others said. I got a TON of clothes, I don't even think my LO was able to wear them all. Keep in mind if you don't like what you get you can always take them back, honestly I wish I would have done that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302837 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:48:57 +0000 pl0508 302837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: great idea - i'm doing this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302835 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:48:41 +0000 sorrycharlie 302835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: yeah, bru is INSANE for clothes! they wanted $20 for a carter's fleece one-piece footie sleeper. I almost died. I registered for the plain white onesies at target. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302834 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:48:39 +0000 pl0508 302834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: that sounds AWESOME! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302830 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:45:59 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 302830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: if I can just comment on the onesie situation...I think it's a good idea. However, I think it depends on where you're registered.<br /> I registered at BRU and their onesies were SO overpriced that I couldn't justify registering for them, especially for those who didn't have coupons. I got my carter's onesies (same as BRU's) from Macy's on a major sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302827 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:45:09 +0000 sorrycharlie 302827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: you can also put a note on the registry! for instance, my BRU and Target registries I wrote, "We would love all-sized clothing! Thank you!" and we only got ONE newborn outfit! She has clothes all the way through 2T. And only one ugly outfit, and no doubles. I was so surprised! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302824 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:43:57 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 302824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Please don't. Let's just say I had 2 showers (both BIG like 25+ people) and I didn't register for a single piece of clothing (or socks or bibs) and guess what? I got A TON of clothing, socks and bibs.<br /> But, I did get every-single-item on my registry as well. The people who brought clothing brought it as an "extra" item after getting me something off my registry (which was awesome!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302823 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:43:53 +0000 Cole 302823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend put tons of clothes on hers and by the time the shower came around they were all on clearance so they were even harder to find, I gave up and picked out something I thought she would like but someone else bought her almost all of it because they got it for dirt cheap. I can't imagine too many people would be that patient though.</p> <p>If there was something really special you like though I would put it on there, I have an aunt who is the type that would love to buy a special outfit but wouldn't know what to pick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302818 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:41:25 +0000 regberadaisy 302818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I did not want a lot of clothing but I knew people would buy clothing so I thought buy putting a few gender neutral items people would get the hint. Not so much, I still got a ton, if not most, of PINK items. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302817 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:40:41 +0000 Shutterbug 302817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>agree with @sorrycharlie: at least at BRU, specific clothes are soooo hard to find. Plus shopping for baby clothes is so fun - having them already picked out for you takes the fun out :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302816 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:40:00 +0000 shopaholic 302816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that it's hard to find the specific clothes on someone's registry, and people that tend to buy baby clothes are typically the ones who wait last-minute, don't look at the registry, and buy what they want. I know that's what I do when it's last-minute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302814 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:38:37 +0000 pl0508 302814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: i was thinking that is what would happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302801 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:32:33 +0000 sorrycharlie 302801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't bother. People buy what they want for clothes - and from experience buying gifts for others, the clothes they choose to register for are NOT usually easy to find in the store! It's always listed in some crazy code, and impossible to locate. </p> <p>You could put a couple different sizes of plain white onesies, or something, but even those weren't bought off my registry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clothes-on-registry#post-302796 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:30:52 +0000 pl0508 302796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ok - should I put clothes on our registry? Part of me feels like people will buy clothes the most, but will probably just get what they think is cute/what they feel like instead of what is on my registry (which is fine!). But now I'm wondering if I should even waste time adding clothes or just have the other items we want/need on our registries. </p> <p>I am scared I'm going to get a ton of clothes and none of our practical items we need!</p> <p>Is it a waste to put clothes on a baby registry?? </p>
