Comments on: There’s a Watermelon in my Belly http://newsinglemama.com/141/theres-a-watermelon-in-my-belly/ I am a single mother of a biracial baby boy just trying to make it on my own. This journey is hard, yet rewarding. Blogging is my therapy, these words are my heart, and people doing better and being inspired by what I have written is my passion and hope.

Do a search for codes before buying anything too. A lot of the time I can fine 10% off codes for my orders.

It sucks! I went to Target like you suggested and their selection was much better especially with Easter and Spring coming up. They even had a couple of girl out fits that were passable for boys that I grabbed cause I want something with purple in it lol They prices weren't too outrageous either. Thank you!

I've been thinking that he'll grow like crazy so I've gotten him the bigger stuff .. I may go back and get smaller things just in case .. my mom yells at me because I still have about 4 months to go but I can't help it. I'm so happy to have my boy that I gotta spend money on him LOL Nicole, that’s what I’m afraid of .. either hell be a fat baby (I don’t eat a WHOLE lot though) or thin because when I got his last ultrasound he was skeletal but she said that was normal.

I have a 2 year old boy. Ive found that Target probably has the most cute boy stuff. Do you have a Target where you live?? When I was pregnant I didnt really buy anything over 9 months. But thats really up to you. Some 0-3 month stuff doesnt even fit right away. You may need to get a couple preemie outfits. My son was 8.14 and he wore newborn size for a little bit. Hope I was some help!! And congrats on the boy!! They are a handful, but SO worth it!!! It seems to me that all stores have way more cute girl stuff! I have a 2 year old boy.

Ikea has a fantastic selection of unisex baby linens! I wish I'd found that out before I ended up with Classic Winnie-The-Pooh. It totally didn't suit his personality. I found surfboard themed stuff there that suited him SO much better and I wish I could have gotten it! I bought barely any of the teeny sizes and ended up with mostly 3-6 and 6-9 month sizes because everyone told me that he was going to grow so fast! It ended up that everything was too big for him because he was so tiny when he was born lol I ended up buying two preemie sleepers because everything was WAY too big for him (and he wasn't even premature -- he was two weeks late) and even those were too big! If I was going it again I would just buy a couple of each things until I knew how big he was going to be! I'm so excited for you!! If you need anything at all let me know! IKEA!!
