I haven't bought anything yet, but my Mother gave me a few board books for when baby arrives, my sister bought me "What to Expect", Mom is also knitting a coming home outfit and one of my cousins gave me a little tin to use to make the hand/foot prints when he/she is born.
One of those little baby bath towels that are fashioned after an animal. I really liked the pig one, but it was pink....So I went with the elephant (blue.)
I haven't bought anything yet. We keep getting hand-me-down things thrown at us. It's nice that we won't have to pay for some things but at the same time, it's our first and I'd like to have something NEW!
We were given a crib with all the bedding, high chair, booster, and a few other things too.
Nothing this time (yet). The first time around, we were at Target, and i turned around to find my husband clutching a soft green blanket with a monkey on it. It melted my heart, so we had to buy it.
We havent bought anything just yet, but we're looking at some great stroller deals on Kijiji right now, so I wouldnt be toooo surprised if we ended up with one! It would def be gender-neutral though.
University of Miami onesie, blanket and a bib that are gender neutral. We used the bib at breakfast one morning to reveal to our best friend that we were expecting. DH and I both went to school there and it was the one thing we couldn't wait to get. Since then, DH bought a gender neutral White Sox hat (he's a die hard White Sox fan) and we have been sent a White Sox bib and another hat.
Books to build up our baby's library! My husband and I both love to read so I am hoping we can pass that on to our little one. Each paycheck we go to Barnes and Noble to pick out one or two
We're so early but I might be stalking out CDs to start stocking up. I know money will be tight so I figure $20-50 a month on stuff that'll keep/ be neutral is a good choice. Next "baby" purchase are pre/post pads I think! (I know, practical and maybe TMI, but hey, I'm excited!)

Today I am pregnant & I love my baby!
We bought plain white onesies to decorate & that's how we told our parents. We ended up keeping one for ourselves, but other than that, we haven't bought anything yet. Been given a breast pump, hb monitor & some books so far.

Re: what is the very first baby item you bought?
I don't think I bought anything before knowing the sex of the baby last time.
this time I've yet to buy anything at all.
ETA: I lied. I think we might have bought the stroller before we knew he was a boy. it's tan.

I wasn't the one purchasing these, my husband did (excited, much? lol). He bought:
2 Boston Bruins onesies
3 Hockey Canada onesies
1 Hockey Canada fan tshirt
I suppose they're all gender neutral. I wear hockey gear, so if we have a girl she will too
