I didn't *have* to buy any, but I did buy some cute stuff that I liked :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-716062 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:46:39 +0000 littlek 716062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did not get any hand me downs. We are the first to have kids of our friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-716061 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:45:59 +0000 mrsjyw 716061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we didn't get any hand me downs... i was the first out of my gfs and dh's bff has 3 boys, so they're still using their own hand me downs!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-716057 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:45:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 716057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we didn't get any hand me downs as most of my friends had boys or kids after us. but i buy a lot of charlie and olive's clothes used off our parenting listserv (big garbage bag fulls for like $40-$50), and nicer one off pieces from our local consignment shop. my mom also buys tons of clothes for them and my aunt buys us nicer stuff. i just fill in the gaps with some cute things. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715971 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:24:29 +0000 Bookish 715971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She will be! My HS friend gave me a huuuuuge amount of clothes, all the way from NB- 1year. I shouldn't have to buy LO clothes for ages, I'm very lucky! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715949 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:18:07 +0000 oliviaoblivia 715949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unfortunately almost all of the hand me downs we've received have been off seasons. I got a ton of NB and 0-3 shorts and rompers for our January baby....and a bunch of 6-9 mos stuff that's wool, velvet, or corduroy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715942 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:16:24 +0000 edelweiss 715942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 3 months old--since people were so generous with the hand me downs, 98% of what he's worn has been used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715939 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:14:38 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 715939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have hand me downs up to 4T. We haven't bought very many clothes for the girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715928 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:10:35 +0000 MamaBehr 715928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't been given too many until recently. We have a whole bunch of 4t stuff and I'm sooo thankful! It is the first time, since she was born, that we have been given clothing! (That's what happens when you are the first to have kids...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715916 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 08:07:12 +0000 looch 715916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None, we rec'd no hand me downs. I'd accept them though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715882 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:52:03 +0000 autumnlove 715882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we only received a few items! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715881 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:51:56 +0000 Dandelion 715881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In his toddler years, yes, he had a lot of hand me downs. Now he doesn't have anyone to get them from, and he prefers new clothes...I do to, for him, cause he's gonna wear them out anyways. Might as well get the maximum use out of them.</p> <p>We do pass his clothes on to my friend's kid, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715874 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:50:17 +0000 T.H.O.U. 715874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy used clothes and get hand me downs from my niece. My niece however doesn't grow really fast so she often wears out her clothes before she outgrows them so I often have to buy some newer pieces still. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715853 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:44:29 +0000 Honeybee 715853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awesome! DD ran out of hand me downs around 18 months old because she's so tall, but DS has a stash all the way through 4T. I love hand me downs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715851 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:44:04 +0000 MamaMoose 715851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She definitely wears any hand me downs we get... but we haven't been given too many just yet. My BFF's LO is 5 years older than mine so she didn't have many baby clothes that she kept... but starting at size 2T my LO is set for life and will be wearing LOTS of hand me downs : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-wear-a-lot-of-hand-me-downs#post-715847 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 07:42:18 +0000 heffalump 715847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So far my LO has mainly worn only hand me downs and gifted clothes. I've been very lucky to not have to buy her any clothes. I thought that we would have to start buying the next size up.... but my neighbor came over with a huge bag of her granddaughter's clothes that they were planning to donate. A lot of them were too small for LO already, but it's a good start! </p>
