When did you start buying things for your first born?

Question

I’m 21 wks on Wednesday and still have not bought anything and it’s really starting to bother me 🙃

Answer

I’m at 33 wks now, and I’m also a ftm, 
So honestly I was (and still am) just as clueless. 
I bought clothes, bed liners and covers, receiving blankets, wash cloths, hooded towels,  (anything washable) early on. I think when I was around 18 wks. Then from there I hit 20-24 wks I got some of the bigger items, crib, stroller, car seat, etc, now at this point I’ve bought the necessities like baby brushes and bottles, pacis, nasal aspirator, nail clipper/files, shampoo/wash, lotion, water wipes. 
The only thing I have left that I haven’t gotten are some of the more expensive stuff like the breast pump and storage bags, a dresser/changing station, mattress, bouncer/or swing, and big bundles of diapers, and formula. 
And a Moses basket, which is a personal want. 
((Tbh idk if I’m missing any important necessary items that are must haves, if you see something I forgot to list off the top of my head pls lmk.))
