to think this was ott. (trivial)

[avon01]

I am pregnant due in October. Dh went to football today and came back with bodysuits from club shop. They worked out at £7 each.
AIBU to think this is a crazy amount to pay for a bodysuit. I wouldn't mind so much if summer and, therefore, theymay be on show. But in winter!!!

Bodysuits?

No idea what you are talking about

What is a bodysuit?

do you mean poppered vests?

do you mean a babygrow?

Sorry I now understand! (in my defence I was in A&E all last night and am running on nothing.

As a novelty one off I can't see the harm.

Doesnt sound all that expensive either, unless he came back with ten of them..

It's not the most exhorbitant babygrow I have seen.

But would be quite costly if it was only owrn once, as it would be in my house. Hullo there, 95degree wash, myfriend.

poppered vests, Now a babygro would be fine.

Oh, a baby bodysuit! Are they logoed?

It's quite sweet that he bought something, he's obviously excited (although yes, they are pricey).

Ahh I see...I thought you meant for an adult - like a onesie or something

Kayano sorry to hear that...hope you're ok?

Yes logoed so I see why they cost that but no one is even going to see it.

I was thinking 'is that something he (DH) can wear under his footy kit?

Well I was hella warm
Today op there is a chance with how fucked
Up the weather has been this year

How many did he buy?

Pack of 3.

It's cute that he bought them, it made me ,

but yes you could have bought 4 for that price, never mind though

Sounds abut right for the ones with logos on. I bet they aren't good quality though! What team, out of interest?

When we had our irst child over 16 yrs ago we only bought 0-3 mth clothes as everybody had told us that we woldn't need newborn size. When I had DD1 it became obvious within a day that 0-3 months was way to big. While I was still in hospital I sent my OH off to Childrens World to get the cheapest babygros h could find in newborn size as money was tight.
He came back with Forever Friends babygros that cost the same amount as a small mortgage.
He was so proud of the fact that he had a new baby daughter that all he had thought about was buying her the best babygros he could find!

Really need to check posts when I'm using my ipad!

It seems alright really, he was excited and I think it's quite sweet he had the baby on his mind while he was out at the football.

In the scheme of things, £7 now is nothing. Wait until they are teenagers and need an iphone, ipad and ipod every other christmas.

Ahh, I was imagining some kind of muscle warming garment for under his footie kit I did wonder about the summer comment, would he only wear the under garment with no shorts over?

Then read down and though he'd paid £7 for 3 and thought that wasnt terrible. Yes, I've been drinking.

So he's paid £21 for 3 baby bodysuits with a logo? Irritating, if you're being very money conscious. It is also sweet.

When DS was a few months old I remember DH coming back from a trip abroad with a lovely Kenzo shorts and t-shirt set. A few weeks later I found the receipt and realised that he'd spent ??? on it.

Whilst I cringe at the thought of spending so much money on something that was worn for such a short time, the fact is that he went out and bought something for our little boy thinking it was a nice thing to do. I couldn't be cross about it. I would suggest that you thank your DH and be glad that he wants to try to do the right thing - hundreds of fathers don't care.

I'm guessing these are team logo'd bodysuits? I'd say expensive but nice as a one-off.
(most of DDs came from the charity shop)

No. I wouldn't complain. It was a nice thing to do. Just thinking how much more you could get for £21 in supermarkets. Know i'm a tightwad.
