Not bought any (yet!) for this pregnancy, but I did for the last one. You can get some great bargains for new/nearly new things. Particularly for small baby sizes, I think people buy or get given so many things that the baby hardly had chance to wear them before they outgrow them!

Wow, where did you find the secondhand stuff?

I bought a bunch of clothes on ebay that would otherwise be a bit pricey, like Frugi and Mori. Most items are in really good condition. Great way to get better quality stuff and do my little bit to reduce waste I figured!

This is our third baby and everything we have so far is second hand from people we know. They’re in things for such a short amount of time and stuff keeps so well, we know that we don’t need to spend as much this time.
We’ve bought a crib, baby gym, feeding pillow, fro bags and four bags of 0-3 clothes and it’s all in perfect condition. Spent £60 👍🏻

Yes, 21 weeks here and spent £75 on 2 bundles of cloth nappies of various brands and £100 on the most enormous bundle of clothes for twins. Our cots and Moses baskets are also preloved items. Nearly everything else is brand new though we still need to sort out bouncers/rockers.
