A FTM here. Just want to know do you prefer everything new for your baby or will you accept hand me downs ie clothes and such?

I prefer hand me downs 1st as baby might have their preferences eg milk bottle. And they grow up fast so i don't buy a lot of clothes. Once i see wat i need then only i buy

Most of the stuff I have prepared so far are hand me down. Newborns outgrow clothes so quickly and it's quite expensive to keep buying new clothes every month.

Bought new ones for my one and only Busby. She has outgrown most of it and I bless to other another mummy. Most of her clothes she only wear it twice

Mix! Hand me downs for rocker, warmer and clothes (mittens/socks) but new for cot, bedding and baby tub. I’d save money wherever I can!

A mix. Babies dun use items for long. So many things like baby chair etc like new on Carousell. But for bedding/mattress I bought new

I have a mixture and its ok to let my LO wear hand me down. But that is of course depending on the condition of the hand me down.

I prefer hand me downs. The clothes that I’ve received from my friends are still very beautiful and still in good condition.

I bought new clothes from Kiddy Palace. It's a personal preference really, received some hand me downs for other baby stuff(:
