When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

Did you wait for your shower or did you start buying things here & there each month?

For a while now, I have been stocking up on wipes, some diapers, lotions, baby washes, etc. I only buy stuff that is on sale with coupons now. Haven't bought many clothes.

I waited until after the shower and then bought some stuff that she will need right away.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

Everytime I see something cute, I pick it up. My first official baby purchase was in December (around 22 weeks), but I've only bought a couple of things here and there.

I figured I would wait until after my shower and then see what I need.

I bought a few things after my Level II and then waited until after my shower because I wanted to wait until I knew what I needed.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

I wont be buying a thing. If others do for us, then great. It will be kept elsewhere and not brought into my home. Im too superstitous.

I will be doing my layette at Denny's. It will be held and when I deliver, I call with weight sizes are exchanged if need be, my sister will pick it up and have it washed by the time I come home. Ill be good for a number of weeks.

To me, everything else is nice but not necessary right away and ceratinly doesnt have to be purchased all at once. JMO.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

When we found out the baby is a boy (~18 weeks), we bought a few NY Jets outfits.
The only other things we've bought are the furniture and a few wall decorations for the room. That was about 23 weeks.

Around 35 weeks... my mom kept telling me not to until after my shower which I just had this past weekend at 37 weeks. At 35 weeks though I bought a take home outfit and diapers just in case I went early.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

I've just started to pick things up and look at them, but have yet to buy anything.
I think I'll feel better after the Level II and go back to buy some of that stuff I was looking at.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

I do not plan to buy until after my shower. I want to see what I get from my shower to see what I need.

Re: When did you start buying stuff for the baby?

I bought a couple of onesies as a joke for DH for Vday, I was 20 weeks then.

Since then I've looked, but haven't bought anything. I really want to wait until after my shower so I have an idea of what we need versus what I want.

I've only bought a onesie for DH for Valentine's Day. I haven't bought anything else, but I'm only 8w3d.

My mom on the other hand is another story! Chat Icon
