It looks like the carters website has some, i'm not sure if it's what you're looking for though.

Google "preemie clothes". There's a TON of websites with semi cute stuff.

I know for sure gap online has the footed one piece button up online I'm not sure about the stores though. They don't say preemie but they are up to 7 lbs.

Thanks. It's like I'm stuck between wanting to buy her new stuff because lylian got new stuff. But at te same time she won't wear it long. And we're not gonna be going out much except to pick up lylian from school because I don't want her to get sick. But she does need some clothes. I just am not sure how much. I'll probably be doing laundry everyday anyway cause I'll have to wash her dipes. So I can just throw a couple outfits in with those.

Yeah exactly. I have more than enough newborn clothes from my son, but he was born just about 9 lbs. This baby is going to be MUCH smaller with the way things are looking, probably between 2-4 lbs and when he goes home probably between 4-5 lbs...so none of the clothes I have will fit. I'm going to get one smaller outfit now just in case, and if he comes sooner I will figure out from there but if he stays in for a while I can just get regular preemie clothes.

I just read through your updates. I'm so sorry you're going through all of that, I know it's gotta be hell. I had a tear in my placenta diagnosed at 10 weeks. At 17 weeks they labeled it an abruption and ot still hadn't healed all the way, The peri didn't say anything about it Friday, but my OB said the partial abruption may not have healed properly which could be contributing. For the most part, they are chalking it up to the Protein C Deficiency, since placental deterioration is the most common pregnancy complication associated with it.

We might be having our babes around the same time, then. My OB and peri told me to come in on the 25th expecting to deliver.

I'll be thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers. I hope you and Creedence can make it to induction day. <3

Are there no children's consignment shops in your area??
You could also try Craigslist, though that was a bust for me. It sucks that preemie clothes are so hard to find. It's part of the reason why she'll only have 4-5 outfits at the most.

Quoting Rabbit™:" What kind of outfits should I get? I only want to grab a few things just in case since it isn't definite that she'll need them. Can they even wear clothes at 34-36 weeks when in the NICU?"

My daughter didn't wear clothes when she was in the NICU - they had to keep her in the incubator until she could maintane body temperature - then when she upgraded to a crib she was allowed to wear sleepers! She was in premies for the first 2 months of her life. Born at 34 weeks - 2lbs 15oz 16".

There are but there's literally no preemie stuff anywhere  

What I found to be sad is that the nurse said most of the babies in the nicu don't even get visitors   not even their parents. I wanted to cry. I'm sitting here wondering how I will ever leave her, and some don't even get held   they have Volunteers called cuddlers that come in and snuggle with babies who have no one. It's just so sad.

Are you serious!?

That is so sad!!! I'm so glad we only live 5 minutes from the hospital. I dunno how I'm gonna handle being separated from her. She'll stay on my insurance until she's discharged from the hospital so I'm hoping we might be able to get a private room and I won't have to worry about the visiting hours.

Hell...I might end up being a volunteer cuddler if there are any lonely babes there. How sad

I know   I would totally go hold other baby's while someone else was holding dd or if she couldn't handle being held. We live an hour away which is why this is so hard for us
