As a few of you pointed out, it's no fun having all pink for girls and all blue for boys, either. <BR/><BR/>I was hoping that not knowing the sex of the baby would force me to buy as many neutrals as possible - and potentially save some money with baby #2 if that ever happens. But it looks like I'll just have to get the essentials and wait until after the big day for the rest. <BR/><BR/>If only I was skilled enough to make my own baby clothes. :)humpsNbumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233620077774019817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358114483416275843.post-62921124678723084052009-01-14T20:57:00.000-05:002009-01-14T20:57:00.000-05:00I learned the hard way: babies need love, a place ...I learned the hard way: babies need love, a place to sleep and a mama's breast.<BR/><BR/>The rest?

Think of the bright side: about 14 weeks from now, you won't give 2 shakes about outfits or colors or anything else for that matter, but your beautiful bundle. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and thanks for posting on youngmommylife about my tips!Radical Selfiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14426315658624727915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358114483416275843.post-59474701274063883272009-01-14T09:05:00.000-05:002009-01-14T09:05:00.000-05:00Oooh, sorry girl.

Just to let you know, dressing your little girl in pink ALL DAY ALL THE TIME is no walk in the park either--these companies need to get a clue. Where's the blue for girls? Where's the orange and red? Something beautiful to pop against gorgeous brown skin? Nothin', nada, zip. <BR/><BR/>I'm not bitter.MBB Founder and Editor Denene Millnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17413819770146273768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358114483416275843.post-3552992633794901972009-01-13T21:52:00.000-05:002009-01-13T21:52:00.000-05:00I didn't find out the sex of my second and I just ...I didn't find out the sex of my second and I just bought enough "neutral" clothes to get me through the newborn period. Then, once the baby was here, I could go crazy with the boy/girl stuff. Besides, if you end up with a chunky-chunk baby like me, they'll be outgrowing the stuff you buy so fast, you might as well buy it when you need it. :)<BR/><BR/>Tara<BR/>http://theyoungmommylife.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358114483416275843.post-10660638726431572292009-01-13T15:36:00.000-05:002009-01-13T15:36:00.000-05:00I know I post this on everyone's blog but if you h...I know I post this on everyone's blog but if you have a craigslist in CA try them! I am guessing there are at least a few other people in your shoes and people often sell all the baby clothes they used for super cheap. Otherwise garage sales or hand-me downs. I know it's fun to buy cute baby stuff but don't get too upset if they aren't perfect. You will have lots of other things to worry about, the baby will grow fast and the baby doesn't care about the color, etc. <BR/><BR/>Or you can wait until after birth for the majority of stuff. Have an after baby shower instead...my friend did that since she didn't know the sex either.A-Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030842127266649940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7358114483416275843.post-47567896151772486122009-01-12T22:17:00.000-05:002009-01-12T22:17:00.000-05:00A friend who chose not to know the gender of her b...A friend who chose not to know the gender of her baby ended up sending me a few boxes of baby clothing. Almost everything 'gender neutral' is hand-knit. That's gotta be a pain to shop for :\<BR/><BR/>Then again, you don't have 17000 pink onesies ...
