Team green moms...

[redlipz]

Are you having any luck finding any cute clothes?

Everything I find is pink or blue or has/says something having to do with the sex. I went to carters and Oshkosh and they had ONE each with unisex clothes and most was onesies and then there were like 3 duck outfits and that's it. If I didn't already have a boy and a girl and hadn't hoarded all their clothes, I'd say this baby would live naked for the first few days (which probably will be the case since we live in Cali n it's hot here already)

Can anyone recommend stores or websites that you've found have unisex stuff?

Go to amazon and search "baby clothes unisex". A ton of cute options pop up

With my first I had the most luck at TJMaxx, Marshalls, and Ross (in VA).

There were a few we got that were carters we really liked, we had so.many.ducks....

I had one ducky outfit that was my favorite - she wore it home from the hospital (it was carters Just for You, from Target collection). And my other favorite was from Marshalls (can't remember the brand) and it was multicolored pastel stripes with a bear on the chest.

I will say, we had a LOT of unisex clothing in Newborn, 0-3 and some 3-6 too. Once LO was born so many people sent us clothes that were girl specific of various sizes, that we ended up not needing as much neutral stuff as I thought. We had TONS of stuff that she only wore once, or some not even, because we got so many other things after she was born.

Some of my favorite places we shopped were:
H&M



Zutano



Janie and Jack


Gap


Hanna Andersson



Old Navy


Hatley

I just saw a bunch of GN stuff in Target. Really cute.

[redlipz]

Thank you girls! I guess I just had to look a little harder(:

I was thinking about just using little accessories with the onesies after baby is born like little caps or bows or whatever. I hope we don't have a super hot summer this year.

TJ MAXX has a lot of neutral stuff, I think. Totally cute too.

[gilder40]

I am going to get a couple outfits for boys and girls toward the end of my pregnancy. Then after baby gets here, I'll have hubby return the ones we don't need. I'll also get some gender neutral stuff too. Whatever I can find that is.

[junch817]

I was team green last time and agree with trixi282; I was shocked at how fast the girl stuff came in after delivering. Family, of course, who each bough 2-3 things, friends that visited, but tons of my husband's coworkers too, which really surprised me. I had a TON of pink and purple with 2-3 weeks. Plus, I picked up a few things after too. Then I found that I didn't want to put the gender neutral stuff on her when I saw it in the drawer next to something with flowers or whatever it was. Between the few things I picked up before birth, and the few things I received at my shower, I had plenty. So that's my two cents - don't buy too much team green, unless it's something you REALLY love, because you will be loaded up after birth =)

[junch817]

I also just remembered you have one of each already, so j guess all of my advice is more toward anyone else reading this lol.

I did get several gender neutral stuff from Burlington Coat Factory.

I second @demanda88, a lot of the "boy" clothes at Carter are fairly gender neutral and so cute.

[eshap90]

I've been buying lots of stripes, white, and grey. I'm guessing if someone were to see my haul they would think I was having a boy but even if I have a girl I don't think she'll end up in pink and "mommy's little princess" written on her onesies. Something about the clothes with mommy, daddy, grandma, etc. drives me nuts! Obviously a baby has relatives. Maybe I'm just angry because my grandma never went on vacation and "brought me back this lousy shirt" I always wanted one haha

[tinavonsparkle]

I'm really liking the grey and white and for some lucky reason, here in the UK, it seems to be the new summer season colours! I'm painting the nursery grey and white too but I just had a bit of a wobble and panicked and thought I might hinder the baby's creativity by not stimulating it visually with more bold colours?! I have been reassured by my SO that once it's full of toys/books/gifts from family & friends it will have plenty of colour!

When DS was born we were team green and we hardly had anything purchased, but he spent two weeks in NICU and between gifts, bags of all sizes of hand me downs from a friend, and us takings breaks from the hospital to buy him stuff from us, he was set by the time we took him home lol.

We are team green again and will just reuse what we can, if it's a girl I'll want to find her some of her own stuff too. probably closer to the date I'll want to pick up a couple special things

[sully326]

I'm not Team Green but we tossed the idea around & when we discussed it, we said we'd just buy 2-3 onsies and 2-3 sleepers....After we had the baby My Mom and Best Friend would go and get a few more outfits...Then when I was feeling better we'd go shopping and get more stuff....

[sugarbean17]

Etsy.com has had so many cute things and most things can be changed or mad special for you so if you want a different color or whatever it's a great option.

[stinybean]

Thanks for this post redlipz I hadn't even thought about clothes yet. I'm still trying to figure out the "big" stuff, but it would be nice if the baby was clothed.

[redlipz]

I do have the coming home outfit which I'm happy about. I'm pretty sure this baby will live in little onesies most of the first weeks unless we go out, I'll just dig for some clothes from my previous babies when the day gets closer. I have a feeling this baby will be a boy so I'm just going to try and find summer clothes if I can because my son was born in February so he only has warm stuff, or he can wear pink and purple with a little bow tie(: lol

[gilder40]

My mom is visiting to help clean out the nursery, and she got us some cute onesies and sleepers at Target. The set of four onesies are green, white, and yellow of various patterns and have frogs on them. The sleepers are gray, a creamy orange, white, and yellow with ducks and mice on them. They had matching hats and little gloves too. They'd be fine for a boy or a girl. Especially if you added a matching bow for a girl.

I haven't bought a ton of neutral clothing, just the basics to get us through the first few weeks. One of my staff who was team green for both her pregnancies told me not to go to crazy with the neutral stuff. Most likely, once the babe is born and you know the sex you're going to want to dress them in boy or girl clothes because, well, they're just cuter. Also, a lot of your visitors will probably bring you an outfit or two becuase people go bat shit over buying baby clothes! I think having summer babies allows us to get away with a little less upfront because it's warmer and we don't have to buy the heavy duty cold weather stuff yet.
