Have you bought anything for baby yet?

This is baby number three for us and there are a few bigger items we need. I just encountered a few great sales online but is it ridiculous to buy this early on? I'm 18 weeks. 

Re: Have you bought anything for baby yet?

  • I don't think it's too early!  there are a few things I wouldn't take out of the box just yet, but making purchases now is smart, I think!

  • The only two big items would be a crib (I was expecting delivery time for October but it arrived early!) and a changing table/dresser from CL that was cheap.  Holding off on putting the crib together yet until 28w.

  • I've bought a couple of onesies and receiving blankets....I'm sure that will change in the next 7-10 days if we get  a good shot at LO's "goods" during one of these U/S's
  • We bought a crib, but only because we got a crazy awesome deal. We don't plan on putting it together for a while though. The in-laws have said they're gonna buy us the changing table/dresser combo, but we haven't bought anything else.

  • DH and I bought the bouncy seat and some clothes. But we are going to slowly start buying more of the big ticket items as we go along! I don't think its too early. Better to be prepared!!!

  • I think im the furthest ahead here because my first is only 9 months old right now and he was also a fall/winter baby boy so I have pretty much everything I need.

    We already have a double stroller, a car seat w/JJ Cole Bundle me to keep him warm, 2 bouncy's (one was DSs), we have the crib, the crib bed set, the pack and play and even clothing...

    Some of the things such as crib and changing table are from DS and will just stay in the nursery since the boys will be sharing a room.  I was just telling DH tonight the only thing I still need is an extra car seat base.

    This week I am starting the project of refinishing an old wooden cradle we have so I have that to do, and once that is finished I am making baby Ethan a quilt(I made one for DS).  After that is all said and done I would like to make a book sling or two for the nursery and than other than setting everything up closer to my due date I am all set :)

  • Just some small stuff.  A few receiving blankets and the like.

    I'm getting nervous about at least ordering the crib and other furniture.  My friend's 5 weeks ahead of me and found out the only crib she and her DH agreed on is backordered till January. Tongue Tied

  • we bought a package of diapers and wipes! haha. but that's it so far.  we have registered for most everything we need. people will buy whatever clothes they think they want us to have.  we're not too worried about not getting the items we need (the more expensive stuff), there's no need for us to shell out the money with 2 big showers on the way here in the next couple months.

     both sets of parents are taking care of 2/3's of the baby furniture for us: crib and then the dresser/changing table.   

     all we have to buy is the dresser drawers and the hutch. 

  • We bought our crib and changing table from Ikea. Also, we got a good deal on a BabyBjorn bouncy seat and carrier.

    We are not planning on registering. I will wait to buy clothes until after my shower.

  • I just set up my registry. I did buy the diaper bag though since they had the one I wanted on sale. Other then that my SIL bought us a rattle and two outfits.
