I know I'll buy some new items but for sure reusing as much as possible (reason why I registered for mostly gender neutral stuff!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818765 Thu, 30 May 2013 15:34:21 +0000 Foodnerd81 818765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO #1 is already wearing a ton of hand me downs! I got lots of stuff handed down from my sister and my SIL, both of whom have boys, so if this LO is a girl (team green) she will still wear some blue for sure. </p> <p>They won't know until they are a lot older if they are wearing hand me downs, so save your money until then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818722 Thu, 30 May 2013 15:20:33 +0000 GrapeCrush 818722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we still have everything! but, i got pregnant 6 months pp....so we didn't really have time to get rid of anything. also #1 is a boy and #2 is a girl....so we have slim pickings of clothes - and they are born in different seasons </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818680 Thu, 30 May 2013 15:04:05 +0000 Smurfette 818680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will save everything. I would rather have money to buy new clothes for #2 than anything else. Plus with 2 in day care we won't be able to afford anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818673 Thu, 30 May 2013 15:02:24 +0000 SugarplumsMom 818673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm saving everything until we know for sure that we don't want another. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818663 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:56:00 +0000 Sweet T 818663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We saved everything. All of our gear is gender neutral and gently used. Most of it looks brand new. There were some wash cloths and towels that I threw away. They were cheap and we never used them. If it wasn't useless, I kept it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818600 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:31:40 +0000 BananaPancakes 818600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm saving everything except the swing. We're undecided on if we're having more, but if we do, it'll be a few years away, and the swing is just way too bulky to store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818567 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:26:06 +0000 cascademom 818567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsF: If we're lucky enough to have a girl as LO #2, she'll probably wear some blue clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818535 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:19:05 +0000 HLK208 818535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saved everything! Except I sold the swing because I knew it would just collect dust...besides it seems like a cooler swing comes out every few years lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818531 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:18:42 +0000 MrsF 818531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll save everything. Future baby #2 will never know and I'm super cheap! I've even intentionally been buying sleep sacks and things like that in neutral colors so that I won't get any crap for using them in the event of a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818527 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:17:57 +0000 Bao 818527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm saving everything! I will get future LO's new things like A&amp;A blankets, maybe one new crib sheet, new outfits here and there...but I plan on mostly re-using everything we already have since some things were barely used at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818519 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:16:04 +0000 cascademom 818519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm saving everything as well. I have LO's clothes and A&amp;A blankets ready for space bagging. I just bought more Avent bottles recently. I'll probably replace nipples on them only, but beyond that, everything's going to get reused. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818504 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:12:49 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 818504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I too am saving most of everything, only tossing stuff that is heavily used. I'm sure some things will get tossed later if we get gifted items/gift cards to replace, but it can't hurt to try to save money where we can... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818498 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:11:47 +0000 heffalump 818498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are saving everything. I'm assuming people will gift her things so she'll get some new stuff.... and most of the stuff is hand me downs from other people anyway so it's not like LO #1 wears new clothes. All of those little things add up, so I'd rather save that money and put it into something we need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818487 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:10:20 +0000 regberadaisy 818487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm saving everything!!! Chances are low that they'll be in the same season so I wouldn't hold my breath that all clothes can be reused. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-saving-for-lo-2-and-beyond#post-818482 Thu, 30 May 2013 14:08:49 +0000 pinkcupcake 818482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going through all of L's stuff to wash, sort, and put away into storage. I'm keeping most of her clothes, nice socks like Trumpettes, receiving blankets that were barely used, etc... but I don't know if I should save things like wash cloths, bibs, burp cloths, etc. Everything is very gently used, but a part of me feels bad that LO #2 isn't gonna have anything brand new at all, not even socks. </p>
