OMG - I brought my first baby clothes today!

[JJ Mum]

Hey Girls, I had such an exciting day, I just have to tell you all

I went to a car boot sale and brought my first unisex baby clothes, first things i have brought for this baby, god it really made it feel real.

I am planning to stay on team yellow, and treat myself once baby has arrived to a few pink or blue items, so stuck to essentials in newborn ish 0-3 size.

I brought 6 vests, 3 babygrows, one little hat, cream booties, white booties (still unused and tagged together!), 2x little white jacket style tops with 2x matching legging bottoms with feet, and one extra white wraparound style top with pic, a cuddledry towel and a white winter snowsuit (Jan baby!), in all 0-3 mths ,all in lovely clean condition (photos have come out all yellow and dark so don't do them justice!) Can't wash and iron the clothes till I tell the kids, but prob bets to wash them nearer the time anyway, or end up doing it again.

Guess what the whole lot cost only £5.40!!!! What a bargain - would recomend it to anyone. Check out the yellow duck set, that's def coming to the hosp with me!

On the way back popped to the supermarket and got small reopening pack of 75 nappy sacks for my hosp bag too.

yayyyyy I'm actually having a baby

How exciting and what a bargain. We bought our first outfit (just a little white baby grow with hat) after the scan on friday and it made it feel much more real! Going to start taking advantage of offers and sales from now on

Oh top tips girls, although a bit sneeky, when you go to a car boot, use an old purse to hold your money (I changed mine for a nice glossy next one a few mths ago) and so used my old one which was dead tatty, and don't bother dressingin anything special or posh looking - sounds silly , but your'll get a much better price! Don't be scared to offer or suggest a price too, you get used to it after a while.

Carefully check all cuffs of babygrows, collars/necks especially for milk stains, and turn them inside and out to check for stains etc, as you can get caught out, esp on a dark day!

I saw a book for my eldest, don't know if you know the books I mean (egyptology) fancy thick book with extra things inside and gems on front etc - one he has wanted for about two years, but at £17.99 too much when he chooses at xmas and chooses something else!

I got Egyptology, Pirateology, Dragaonology and Wizardology all for 50pence each, total £2 and saved £70 quid! He was over the moon!

Aww they are lovely! And such a bargain too! I can't wait till I can start buying stuff, it must make it feel much more real. Trying to put it off for as long as possible because when I start I don't think I will be able to stop! I think around the 15 week point is a good time to start though!
