    DS was 5 months and was *meant* to be in the gown my Mum made for my sisters children. He wore the gown - got too hot and had to be stripped off. He was baptised in a nappy with a white stole - so almost naked We had photos later. As long as it is a simple design and not too frilly I am fine with a dress for a boy. DD will be wearing the same outfit this weekend for her baptism.

    DS is not Baptised, but my brother and I wore the same Christening gown that all of my cousins have worn. Everyones initials get embroidered on to it.

    Our DS wore the family christening gown, the same gown his dad and sister wore. I did contemplate a suit thingo but to be honest, I think they can (not saying all do!) look a little tacky - no offence to anyone that decides to go this way!

    If we have another boy, he will wear the same gown.
