Team green ladies: clothing questions

Besides onsies/pajamas do you have any clothes? I have NO outfits for Cletus, not that I'm worried, but I was talking to a cousin and she thought it was a little odd.

    We have about 10 neutral sleep n plays (may be what you call PJ's).  We went out and bought a bunch of gender specific clothes after DD1 was born.

    Not really.  I bought a few duck pants/shirt sets but all you really need at first are onesies, snapfront tees, and sleepers anyways.

    I had sleepers, some onsies and a few outfits that were purchased for my shower (I had several friends who bought me an outfit for the gender they were hoping for and a few who bought me one of each).  Other than that I didn't have anything really as far as clothes until after DS was born...then I bought a slew of stuff and my mom sent a slew of stuff to me as well.

    Onsies and sleepers here.  I'm not into dressing them up, it's all about washable, easy, comfortable clothing for as long as possible.

    That baby will have a closet full of clothes once he or she is born. :)

    I have a handful of outfits that I got as gifts, but I didn't really buy any myself.  Well, I bought one for the hospital.  I figure I'm going to do a bigger shopping spree after LO is born and we know the gender and how big the little gaffer is.

    I have 3 onsies and a pj set. I'm not buying any clothes until after the shower... I'm sure even on team green I'll get tons of clothes

    This. I have a lot of sleepers. I have four gender specific outfits (two for each) that I just *had* to have when I was shopping. I'm going to give away the ones that aren't appropriate (or maybe save them for a future child).

    I'm sure there will be a lot of online shopping in the days and weeks after LO is born.

    Not really.  I told my mom that it's her job to go buy the baby gender-specific outfits, including LO's take-home outift, while we're still in the hospital.  I'm pretty sure she'll be up to the challenge :-)

    But I'm not worried about having too many outfits since I plan on having LO in onesies for most of the summer (unless we're going somehwere or have visitors).

    I have PJs and onsies that are gender neutral plus some cute gender specific and gender neutral "church" outfits that we got at consignment sales.  My sister gave me my nephew's 0-6 month clothes this weekend.  If we have a girl, I know that my mom with go on a spree.  I am not worried.  Once the baby is here and we are in a groove, I will take him/her shopping.

    Thanks ladies, I was feeling VERY out of the loop glad to know I'm not.

    We have a couple neutral items (like 5),  a boy going home outfit washed and packed and a girl going home outfits washed and packed. I then have two bags of clothes in the baby's closet - one bag of boy stuff and one bag of girl stuff. The receipt is taped to the bag and I'll return whichever I don't need after I have the baby.

    I am technically not 3rd tri yet but have been lurking. 

    I agree with Juno's post. The coming home outfit will be neutral but we'll have a big bag of clothes picked out for whether it's a girl or boy and return the clothes that don't apply! :) I still want to be able to pick out little girl and boy clothes before and this way I can while still being team green.

    I agree with a pp, with DS 1, we had maybe 6 neutral sleep n plays.DH left the hospital and purchased a gender specific outfit to bring the baby home from the hospital. It was something that WE wanted to do and had a blast with it!!

     I was humored by the fact that my SIL was EXTREMELY bothered by the fact that we didn't have gender specific clothing. So the day she found out it was a boy, she ran out to the store and bought I think the department and 'overnighted' it! (yet it took a week to arrive b/c she had the wrong address!!) It still makes me laugh, but we wouldn't change what we did and are doing the exact same thing this time around too!!
