DC2 is due in 3 weeks and we have been given some absolutely beautiful clothes from a friends sister. Its outfits from Next and Jasper Conran which we would never be able to afford.
WIBU to use these for newborn DD as her first outfits? I know it shouldn't matter at all it just feels a little bit funny when DS haf all brand new clothes as he was the first.

Both my DC came home in second hand clothes (DC2 in the same that DC1 came home in). Tbh they were probably third hand by the time DC1 had them as the people who gave us clothes had more than one child

I bought them both new snow suit things and sleep suits for first outfits because I'm a sentimental sod and have kept them for them to potentially put their babies in one day. Apart from that it's all been second hand, baby doesn't know any better and tbh kids are expensive enough without buying brand new.
Congratulations I'm sure the baby will lol gorgeous in whatever they were Flowers
