Trying to Get Pregnant

First Time Parent.

Hello everyone, I am Mike, a 24 year old male and my fiancé and I are shooting for our first child after being together since 11th grade. We're very excited but even more nervous. Just wanted to get some advise from those who have been there or in the same situation I'm in. We both come from decently wealthy families so buying things for the baby isn't a problem, it's KNOWING what to buy and what NOT to buy. All help will be appreciated from us both.

Re: First Time Parent.

  • Not everyone on this board has had a child. You will probably find more success if you head to the 0-3, 3-6 month + boards as those ladies are in the full swing of things!

    Good luck!

  • I'm confused. Aiming to get pregnant with first child? And you are thinking about what to buy?
  • I put a lot of effort into my reply and I feel like he owes me a love tit.
    He hasn't even seen it. He posted and hasn't logged back on since.
    Son: Jackson, 11/02/06, stillborn due to PPROM and IUGR. Over the next ten years we had 9 miscarriages from 8-14 weeks. On May 18, 2016 my daughter, Ridley, was born. We're OADNBC.
  • You should totally start a baby registry, like yesterday. Since your families are super wealthy it shouldn't be a problem. Is it okay if you throw on a few things for my future/unconceived child?

    Poor, abandoned thread... no one to love it or buy it things.
    It has us. What more does it need?
    An OP with the good sense to not buy piles of baby stuff before there's even the beginnings of one?
    I'm sure they have love and they think that's all it takes. And if not, they have money!  8-| haha

  • Oh HAYYYYYY Mike,

    Can you use your loaded to buy all the things for my kiddos in the Congo who are already conceived and born and stuff?

    Thanks in advance.

    This is from yesterday morning. That must have been one hell of a nap.
