What did you buy?What did you reuse?
I bought most new clothes, swaddle blankets.
Reused jackets, nice pants, bathing seat, swing , crib. Blankets
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Planning to reuse it all iA, boy or girl. The kid has a fantastic wardrobe, most of it barely worn because he outgrew sizes so fast. I’m not ready to let it go just yet. Also reusing all his gear- diaper bag, bouncer, swing, etc.
Except… I’m buying a fancy new stroller because I’m a little obsessed with strollers and I want to
I’ll try to sell my current fancy stroller if I can and if not, I can live with three strollers! ![]()
Oh I might buy some new swaddle me’s too and maybe my own breast pump if nursing isn’t successful.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Bought.. Aiden and anais swaddlers (4 in a pack). Best purchase ever!
Clothes but not many ( it’s a girl but I use my sons onesies on her all the time because they are mostly gender neutral and even if it was a boy, I won’t be able to use much because he was winter baby and she is summer baby), new nipples for the existing bottles, and that’s pretty much it.
Oh and some socks and a couple of headbands.. I didn’t buy any shoes for her because I went crazy with my boy and he hardly wore them.. Ironically she got 4 pairs as gifts though so good enough!
Swing.. The one that our son had used 4 D batteries, he was in it for almost a year so we spent a lot on batteries.. This time around husband decided to buy the same thing but it now comes with the wall charger. My kids love swings so worth every penny ![]()
Diaper bag.. Since I wasn’t buying much I bought myself a nice. Skip hop diaper bag that I absolutely love and carry it everywhere.
All iof our big items were gender neutral so we are using our same car seat, stroller, infant carrier , activity mat etc. she is 3 months now and I haven’t shopped for anything except some more clothes because she was tiny and stayed in newborn longer than I thought she will!
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
i’m only buying a new diaper bag since my old one is pretty worn out after using it with 2 kids already.
Re using everything else since we just had a baby last year.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
i will be getting a new car seat, baby clothing, feeding bottles and pump in case i cant BF, and a co-sleeper cot.
cant think of much else at the moment
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Ehle…you pregnant?
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
^ yes, alhumdulillah. ![]()
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
The only thing I bought is baby clothing (onies to be specific), I had donated my son’s 0-9 months clothes. I might have to buy some towels too, I am suspecting that I donated those as well. Oh and I suppose bottle nipples (if I have to bottle feed)

WHAAAATTTTT??? Girlfriend!!! ![]()
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
2nd child I bought nothing; because the girls are only 15 months apart, so I pretty much used everything from previous last year ![]()
My sister however did buy me a double stroller when the 2nd baby was born, but unfortunately it fell apart a 1.5 year later. And that was a bummer :-/
May 2013…three years later …3rd baby alhamdulilah ![]()
He is a boy so I did buy new clothes/burp cloths/bibs/shoes/change pad. My sister this time bought me an infant carseat since the older one expired.
Everything else I have been re-using.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Congratulations.. Mashallah.. When are you due? ![]()
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
end of dec inshallah.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Both my kids were born in different seasons, plus the genders were different. I did save some blankets and clothes for nostalgia sake, but these were mostly for 3 years plus jackets etc which my daughter refused to wear. I reused the same car seat and stroller, rocketing chair, and crib. Some things I had never bought for my first born such as an excersaucer, swing, umbrella stroller, wipers warmer etc.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
We had to buy everything new for all three babies since they are so far apart. Only things same for 2nd and 3rd were the crib, changing table, wipes warmer and the bottle sterilizer.

Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
Congtats ehl!!! Grreattt news MA!!
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
We reused pretty much everything. Carseat, bathtub, crib, changing table, stroller, bundleMe, swing, pump (got new plastic parts), bottles (got new plastic parts), clothes that weren’t too stained, toys, etc. We just got some more clothes and sheets. Oh and I got a new diaper bag as the first one wasn’t in good shape, plus I understood better what I needed.
2nd and 3rd babies
I will be reusing mostly everything. I do have to get a few things though. I need to get a car seat cozy because this one will be a winter baby and the last one was a summer baby. I need to get a double stroller and will probably buy an arms reach co-sleeper or a rock n play. Otherwise, clothing, car seat, swing, pump, bottles (if needed), shoes, blankets, towels, etc. I still have because my son will only be 17 months when the next one comes In Sha Allah.
Re: 2nd and 3rd babies
