Do you ever look at some of the cute baby and kids clothes or shoes they have out and think you still wanna buy them, even if you don't have a baby or kid? They are so adorable sometimes, I have seen some baby shoes today that I went gaga over and I'm childless, much to my own disappointment with myself. I am old enough to be a grandmother in fact but still never had kids, am I missing out on alot or what?

Kids' outfits are so cute and so much more fun to buy.
I guess you could always borrow a friend's child or grandchild and dress them up?

Like you I am technically old enough to have grandkids. I have always wanted kids, but never found anyone to have them with. I recently had a miscarriage, and may not get an opportunity again for children, but I want to tell you that you are not missing out. And yes, there are far too many cute things out there, especially for little girls.

Yeah. One time I bought two baby clothings. I couldn't resist buying them. They looked so cute. I told myself that if I will still have my second child, there's a tendency that our baby could use it. LOL. However, it's been years and I still don't have another baby because we don't intend to. LOL. I guess I can't afford yet to have another baby. Why don't you have any children yet? Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

Baby cloehes are cute and i remember once i saw there is a brand in project runway.Those designers are try to design suitable looks for baby.So from that time and i fell in love with baby wear.Anyway,babies are cute and it's easy to buy i suppose.So i will buy for my sister's kid.

Firstly it is unbelievable for me that somebody will buy kids' clothes or shoes without kids.But due to you are old enough to be a grandmother so I can comprehend you completely.Regarding to your condition,why not to adopt a kid?It is very popular to adopt kids nowadays,as you well know,you will feel very lonely when you getting old and without kids,so why not?

I'd also love to see those kind of stuff. It is really cute and amazing. When I passed by some store with those baby items, the idea will pop up to my mind that if I will have a baby in the future I would buy those kind of cute stuff.I would collect same colors so that it will be more pleasing to the eyes.Hope so..

My children are getting a little bit older now and they are definitely out of that really cute clothes stage. My daughter, at almost ten-years-old is now more into skulls and crossbones and guitars than cute dresses with a lot of ruffles and lace. My son is in a stage where he really like sports type clothing.
However, I am lucky enough to have a little niece that is only a year old and my best friend has a new baby nephew so I at least do still have a reason to look at the baby clothes.
That said, I really don't think that you are missing out on anything because though the clothes are absolutely adorable, babies aren't all sunshine and rainbows.

You seem very nice, NailTech. That's kind of sad that you don't have any children.
Didn't you find the right man for you ?
I sometimes adore baby clothes when I see them. I give a second look, those tiny clothes make me smile for their innocent shape and figure. Cute and pure clothes.
I sometimes have doubts about me getting a girl, I don't know if I will have children, so, I guess I will have to keep trying.

No I never had that, even I do have kids (and had many foster children). I could be a granny too btw.

Hi NailTech, there are times when i go to malls when i see some baby clothes and shoes i want to buy some of them then stored it in our closet even though we don't have yet a child but most of the time I ended up buying clothes for my niece and nephews. I am hoping and praying that one day i can able to shop baby clothes again but not for my nephews and nice but to my own child.

I went to some thrift stores the other day and was looking at some baby clothes. Since I had three boys I never got to buy any frilly girl clothes and they have some cute clothes!
Sorry to hear you have no children, they are a true blessing but a lot of work. I saw a show a while back where this woman makes and sells dolls that look and feel like a real baby. One woman had 4 or 5 of them. Maybe you ought to get one of them, you don't have to feed them or change them and they don't make any sound!!
