Try http://www.swapmamas.com/!! Let people know what you are looking for and post your baby girl stuff on there. It has worked really well for a lot of people and you can get rid of the stuff you have while not having to buy new stuff since it's all free. You can also try freecycle.com, which is a site that doesn't necessarily require you to give something in return for what you're getting. Good luck!

look online they have a lot of neutral colors a maybe idk how you feel about this but whatever your daughter doesn't wear anymore keep you favorites and put it in your book but bless the rest to someone else maybe for colors do like a nice neutral green and brown or light blue and brown something along the lines with that color ill look online and let you know what i find but calm down u don't want to stress that baby and you also want to enjoy your 9mos daughter since it will be only for a short time shes the baby just relax and look online at babies r us and everything will fall into place keep me updated on how things is coming trust me ive bee in your shoes but i have two boys born back to back my son was 9mos when i found out i was 3 mons pregnant with my other son and i had a had time finding the perfect doubel stroller with infant car seat so i know but it will all work out

I would look in Walmart or Target. Defenitely look for other friends that have strollers. I would give anything to find someone to take all my sons stuff off my hands!!!

have you tried walmart? right before i found out i was having a girl i went to walmart and found a Graco stroller and playpen that were neutral colors. and the infant seat was also a neutral color. not so sure where you can find a double stroller though. like ashley said, craigslist has a lot of stuff you can find too.

Try Craigslist....... We actually got lucky and found someone that sold us a Graco Travel System for 40 dollars. There's always tons of stuff on there. If your willing to sell some of your girl's old clothes for semi-cheap let me know.

I agree with Amanda about selling or better yet swapping your baby girl clothes for baby boy clothes. I personally wouldn't worry about the colour of the stroller -there are tons of tan or red or black etc. strollers out there, but I would buy whatever double stroller is cheapest and then just make sure my son was wearing blue so there's no confusion! But if it does matter to you there are lots of cheap used double strollers and you have time to keep looking until you find the right one.
Best of luck!

eddie bauer has nice dbl strollers and tan/navy blue is their most popular color. check craigslist, you'll find one really nice and possibly under 50 bucks.sell ur baby daughters stuff on craigslist too or trade for baby boy clothes. craigslist helps u find things u need in your local neighborhoods. :)
