if I were to accidentaly get pregnant, at least I'd be spared the expense of a whole new baby wardrobe
t whaps own head for buying SO MUCH PINK
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well, it's not like there's much in the way of androgynous baby clothes to be found.
Another girl would definitely be easier on the pocketbook, at least in the short term.

Yeah there was PINK IM A GIRL and BLUE IM A BOY. Even the green or yellow stuff was boyish or girly.

Yep. One of the fun parts about Annabel getting older is having an easier time finding bright and dark colors for her, but it's still a choice of GIRL GIRL GIRL or baby drag 90% of the time.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Best of luck to Robin's fam.

I remember someone saying they just bought all white and dyed as they saw fit. It sounds like a reasonable thing to do, but I may be a little over-invested in my "no pastels" edict.
Um, not that I am pregnant or planning to be within the next year-plus. IJS.

Aimee, good on you for giving blood. I too hope you do not throw up.
Susan, the laundry-pen marker seems sound. And I hate the idea that when/if I have a kid, my choice is likely to be GIRL GIRL GIRL or BOY BOY BOY -- it just seems kind of overkillish.

If I only had a brain...
I may be a little over-invested in my "no pastels" edict.
Back in the '90s, you could buy nice brilliant primary colors... on the boy's side. Our daughter wore lots of "boy's" OshKosh overalls in red and yellow and blue.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
yay for Utah and Amyparker!
glad to here your niece is checked in. may her road to recovery be hard enough so that she never goes back , but not so hard that it hurts the rest of the family.

I can't believe I forgot - YAY AMYPARKER!!! (I miss her.)
Our daughter wore lots of "boy's" OshKosh overalls in red and yellow and blue.
This is a positively brilliant plan.

It's reasonable if you're not me, the world's least domestic woman. To me, dying baby clothes is right up there with making my own baby food as "nice ideal, but if I expected myself to do it, I wouldn't, and it's not worth the guilt."
