Myth
It is suggested that one should not buy anything for the baby before the baby’s birth as it is again considered to be bad luck
Fact
This statement is not true. Buying something in terms or clothes or any other baby accessories and preparing for your baby’s arrival is good planning and has got nothing to do with bad luck. Again ideally it is good to use old clothes since they will be pre washed and also softer. This is good for the baby’s skin.
Also babies outgrow clothes super fast and it might make financial sense to use some borrowed stuff. If you do buy new clothes you can wash it once before your baby wears it so that its softer on the baby’s skin and does not create discomfort to the baby.
