when did you start?

Question

So it's literally soooo hard fighting The urge to buy baby stuff already. I feel like since the moment I've found out I was pregnant (3weeks) until now at 9weeks&4days that I've waited long enough😩😩. I just wanna b able to look at all the tiny,cute little baby stuff. Ik usually you wait *well so I've heard* until you know the sex of the baby. 
When did you start shopping for your baby??

Answer

On my first I started shopping at about 4 weeks . I had two miscarriages before this pregnancy and I bought stuff early on those pregnancies too . This time I waited until about 14 weeks . If you want to buy things go for it . Even when I had my miscarriages I never regretted buyin things early .

Answer

I bought the swing, pack n play, and bathtub at 12 weeks. When there's good deals, I say don't pass them up!

Answer

We already got our baby shoes I'm only 4 weeks but the other stuff I'm gonna wait til, we know the gender

Answer

25 weeks.. just a couple of items we got a crazy deal on.. like a $700 crib for $200.. other than that waited until about 34 weeks, 38 weeks now, and have everything.

Answer

37 weeks and have not bought a single thing!  If you are going to have baby showers I would wait. I know it's exciting, but you wouldn't believe how much stuff we have received.

Answer

We would just buy a pack of diapers or wipes when they were on sale at the grocery. I knew we'd get a lot of clothes and blankets at our shower so I didn't have a huge urge to buy those. And now at 33 weeks we have a good stockpile of diapers size newborn-3. I always wanted to buy the cute stuff, but I was trying to be practical lol. And diapers were less personal in terms of gender or if something happened.

Answer

I just hid all evidence of baby products from myself (avoiding aisles etc hahaha). But im 11w now and am thinking i will slowly buy stuff. Maybe one thing every few weeks!

Answer

I started at 11 weeks. I just got gender neutral stuff and diapers/wipes. I would suggest starting to get ideas of what car seat and stroller you like too.. those are expensive. 37 weeks now and the early shopping definitely helped a lot.

Answer

I'm almost 24w and have bought a single onesie. I am waiting as long as possible because I think I'm afraid something will still happen and I'll be left with all these baby things I can't use

Answer

I waited until I knew the sex because I started with clothes. That was 12 weeks ago now I have a full wardrobe, a crib, stroller, car seat, washcloths, blankets, etc.

I know a lot of girls who started by getting gender neutral big stuff or just starting stockpiling diapers and wipes to take the edge off 😂
