I dont have kids yet either but I am with you Pareezay! I’m the eldest in my family and in my Khandaan! I’m engaged and everyone is already talking about how awesome it will be once I have kids. haha. I have a feeling I will not have to buy anything for a while in the beginning…
And I personally am a big big fan of TJ Max and Marshalls!!! You can find the cutest things there for the most unbelievable prices!!!
My youngest brother is only nine years old (16 yrs younger than me!!!) and I have been obsessed from the day he was born with buying him the most stylist and cutest clothes 
That is how I discovered how awesome the Baby department at those stores are.
Always a big fan of Baby Gap too… the quality is just so good. I always got stuff on sale though!
My mom has five kids (mA) and she had no problem doing the hand me down thing. She has 2 daughters and 3 sons… its like why not?? Usually these hand me downs have hardly been worn! Kids don’t really care and in all honesty, is not like they are ONLY wearing hand me downs. My youngest bro has 2 older brothers and definitely has had his fair share of hand me downs. But being the baby of the khandaan he has a closet full of expensive brand new clothes as well!!!
My mom tells me that when we were younger there were SO MANY clothes that she couldnt even keep track of hanging on to them to use later for another kiddo. So each time she went to Pakistan she took a suitcase full of these clothes and give them to the more unfortunate distant relatives who had small children and could not afford to get their kids good quality clothing. She said she felt better doing that as opposed to giving the clothes away to Salavation Army.
She also has a memory box for each of us kids that holds some of her favorite outfits of ours from our childhood. These were not hand me downs nor were they given away 
I confess that I kept two of my baby bro’s little one piece sleepers which were my favorite … for memory sake. 
Kids grow up so fast!!! I wish my bro was still a baby … :hinna:
