I was excited because I bought the first baby item on Tuesday. I have been refusing to buy anything until we know if it's a girl or a boy. Plus, I'm afraid once I start buying, I won't be able to stop. SO the other day I saw a fireman rubber ducky that I could not resist (DH is a fireman) and I thought I had bought the first baby item. DH has been out of town for training and admitted tonight that he actually beat me to buying the first baby item by a few hours!! He won't tell me what it is, he says I have to wait until I get up there tomorrow (Not quite a babymoon planned for this weekend, but at least a weekend that isn't at home!!)
Re: First Baby Stuff
awww, how cute! That's def a good purchase :-)
We're really early and we're moving this summer so I'm not sure when I'll allow myself to buy something.
I bought a baby book for the first....the kind where you fill it out with info about when you first found out, ultrasound pics, etc!
Yay!
I went shopping the same day I got my BFP, but I was able to restrain myself pretty well. I bought a package of 5 onesies, but that was because one of them said, "Grandma loves me" on it, and that's how we wanted to tell MIL. I also bought two Christmas themed onesies since I'm due in September and they were on sale for $3 each. The only other things I've bought are two books.
I walk past a Baby Gap on my way to work everyday, though, so I don't know how much longer I'll be able to hold out. I keep telling myself it will be more fun to buy stuff once I know if the baby's a girl or boy.
Mom, why are you washing my feed in the sink?!
