I had some outfits that were for boys that were gifted once we were born and we also placed a huge on line order while still in the hospital. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866741 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:53:37 +0000 SAHM0811 866741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was TG for #2 and got maybe 6 gender neutral onesies, 4 pants, 4 hats, and 2 pairs of mittens (new clothes). Also on hand, a small box of gender neutral hand-me-downs from DD... and I was gifted around 6 sleepers/outfits from my baby shower. Overall, I probably didn't need the new clothes, but at the time, I was in nesting mode! I also love to shop and wanted to buy #2 a few new things myself.</p> <p>If you don't trust DH to go shopping alone after baby is born, there's ordering online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866472 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 20:14:30 +0000 MsMamaBear 866472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a lot, maybe 10 sleepers we bought and at the baby shower, we got a lot of sleepers, even though some were the same ones.LOL After, my mom went crazy shopping and some other family members, so it was all good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866336 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:13:29 +0000 pastemoo 866336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were team blue but had maybe 8 things before he was born. After he was born people mailed things in. He grew fast so at 2 months I had to buy a whole bunch of 6m stuff. OTherwise we've hardly bought him any clothing--that's the biggest gift we've received is delayed clothes in the mail. Even now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866333 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:12:28 +0000 Bao 866333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the short lived time we were team green we had about 8 onesies (white, green, light orange), footed sleepers and night gowns in neutral colors and I think that was mostly it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866331 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:11:35 +0000 rattles 866331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a few things like sleepers, onesies, etc. But people sent a lot of clothes when she was born, since they hadn't been able to get them shower gifts. Also, don't forget that you can always shop online! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866329 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:10:35 +0000 Honeybee 866329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a few outfits (onesies with soft pants and a couple sweaters) and then a ton of sleepers for the 0-6 month range. I probably had 10 sleepers in each size plus maybe four newborn sized. I also had all of DD's clothes and we got a lot of boy clothes after DS was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866321 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:04:25 +0000 petunia354 866321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had just a few neutral items and then I bought both a boy and girl preemie sized outfit because we knew our baby would be born early. Luckily for us, once the baby came everyone ran out to buy a boy outfit so he'd was well outfitted once he was able to come home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866302 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:41:39 +0000 Foodnerd81 866302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My shower is this weekend, so I'll know more after that, but not a ton. I have a bunch of hand me downs from my two nephews, but both their parents were team green, so a lot of their newborn and 0-3 stuff is still neutral. So, I have a couple of sleepers, a good handful of onesies in NB to 0-3, maybe 6 sleepers in 0-3... I'm hoping to have enough to last through the first few months without shopping. Then, if it's a boy, we are all set, but if it's a girl, I get to buy baby girl clothes. Plus it will be the first granddaughter in the family so I'm sure she'd be totally spoiled with girly things anyway. </p> <p>I'm pretty sure it's a boy anyway :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866299 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:41:11 +0000 swedishfish 866299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I received a bunch at my baby shower but LO's not here yet so I'm not sure if it will be enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-how-much-clothes-did-you-have-before-the-baby-came#post-866282 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:31:01 +0000 heffalump 866282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I already have a girl so if we have a girl I'm set. But I have a feeling it's a boy. Either way I think I'll get enough gender neutral clothes to last from newborn to 0-3 months. I won't want to take LO shopping as a newborn, and I don't trust DH to go alone. </p>
