@StbHisMrs: I'm curious too. My LO was born last October and I'm thinking about trying for an August baby.

I guess I could still reuse some of the fall stuff because in the summer we'd blast the AC. The jackets and snowsuits might not fit.

Our girls were February and July... at the peaks of winter and summer!! Most basics and play clothes were able to be reused, but yes, every season that comes around, I find myself buying some new clothes for DD2 to fill in the gaps. My 2nd DD also didn't grow as fast during the first year as my first, so it wasn't too bad since some sizes she stayed in for a while... And a nice thing about girls is that dresses last a long time, especially if they are a little long when you buy them... And I stretch out their use even more by layering them with cardigans and leggings in colder months.

Since your baby will be smaller in the winter than your first was, at least you'll have winter clothes that will fit her, but they might just be slightly big? We had the opposite scenario where a lot of our winter clothes were way too small for #2 (i had newborn and 3 month winter clothes, but #2 was 6 mos old in the winter) so things like our snowsuits, fleece sleepers, and other winter gear were not used again, and had to be bought in bigger sizes.
