I didnt until after my baby showers.

I'm not pregnant and I have maternity clothes and baby stuff. People just give it to me bc I usually know someone that needs it but if I can't find someone I put it in my little "someday" box

I'm not even pregnant and I've got a box full of baby things...

I started immediately after I found out but I also knew I wouldn't have a baby shower. If you are planning on a baby shower try buying the bigger stuff on your own. That way you're not rushing and spending a large amount of money in a short period of time. I have been done buying for the baby since I was 30 weeks.

I started buying stuff immediately. Id suggest waiting til after your shower though. .
