Buy Quality Baby Items

From , former About.com Guide

I have two children, and hope to have more. In preparation (I started with my first child), I buy as many clothes unisex as possible, especially snowsuits, sleepers, onesies and white or gray socks. This way, you can buy the nice quality stuff once, and use it with all of your children, Same goes for crib bedding, strollers and car seats. The only thing you don't want to do this with is shoes or sneakers for everyday use (dress shoes are o.k.), as it is not good for a child's foot development. Use cloth diapers too, the all-in one's are expensive, but again, start with the first child and you won't have to buy them again. - Submitted by Patty
