I bought a belly band last week (slightly embarassing, lol) and today I got the BEST deal ever! It is a Carter's bringing home baby box. It has 22 items in it, washcloths, hats, booties, socks, onsies, jammies, bibs, etc. It was as BabiesR'Us and had not price sticker on it. The manager said to just ring it in at $4.49!!! Then the cashier hit the wrong button and it took 25% off and I got it for about $3 and some change!!!
Well the weekend we found out was our 1st Anniversary weekend, so we were on a trip to Gatlinburg, TN and ended up buying a unisex onesie from one of the gift shops for our little Junebug. I brought it back to the hotel room and placed the 3 positive preg tests on top of it for a pic. I take pics of everything .. kinda weird but I thought it would be sweet for the baby book
Other than that I've only bought WTEWYAE and Your Pregnancy Week by Week books. I've already planned on getting a Bella Band and some of the Bee Tummy Butter and a Snoogle! But that won't be til I'm a little bit further along. I love looking online at all the times he/she and I are going to need

About a week after we found out, we bought one unisex onesie. That was supposed to be it, but MH bought another without telling me last week! Someone's excited...
We haven't bought anything, but my Mom has bought a few things.
A baby sack that's handpainted with little bees on it with matching booties, a little tie dyed t-shirt, and she bought it it's first little teddy bear.
We bought a pregnancy journal last night after we got our BFP. I bought a onesie to give to DH about a month ago and we also bought a cosleeper back in May because the one I wanted was being discontinued. That's all we've bought so far and probably won't be buying anything else super soon.
Oh, the day before our BFP I also got a book and DVD on how to crochet along with all the supplies I will need. I "knew" this was our cycle and I wanted to be ready to make a baby blanket
DS born 6/11/11, miscarriage on 8/6/2012 at 10w5d, miscarriage on 12/29/13 at 5w4d, BFP #4 on 2/21/2104 at 3w4d - EDD 11/3/2014 ♡
The night I got my BFP, we got a journal and some books. I ordered belly bands online, because I heard people were needing them around 6 weeks, and I didn't know how long they'd take to get here.
It has been incredibly hard to avoid buying baby stuff, but I'm feeling superstitious about that right now, and want to hold off.
The day after I got my BFP, I bought WTEWYE. Today I bought a Be-Band because my jeans were already on the borderline of being too tight before getting KU Yeah, so much for trying to lose that pesky 10 pounds before getting pg.
I do not have the urge to buy anything for the baby yet, or ever start looking at stuff. I just don't want to jinx anything this early, and once I start looking, it's going to get crazy...

I have bought 2 books and nothing else yet. I started looking a bit at baby items but will probably wait until the 2nd trimester to really buy anything just in case
We bought onesies saying "I love my grandma & grandpa" for our parents when we told them! Not sure if that counts but thats it so far! Cant wait to buy more!
Books, and a unisex froggy onesie and "I love daddy" bib that I used to tell DH (I dressed up his childhood teddy bear, which he had stored away for a LO someday).
Oh, and this weekend I crocheted two sets of baby booties that are so sweet I can hardly stand it! I started crocheting a few years ago and always give these to my friends who are expecting. I need to start on a blanket but am waffling on colors. I felt like booties were safe, I can always give them as gifts or use them later...and it's the only thing I can do right now without spending any money!
I bought 3 books (WTEWYE, Expect the Best, and My Boys Can Swim) today on Amazon and bought a calendar to write in to use as a pregnancy journal until I find what I want
I need to curb everything else until we get to our appointment. It feels so far away...
2 BeBands and an entire maternity wardrobe. No kidding. 2 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of dress pants, 5 tanks, 2 long-sleeve shirts, 4 short-sleeve shirts, a sweater, and two dresses. (As a note, all were on sale except the jeans!)
Plus a sling (it was free, I just paid shipping!) and yarn for a baby blanket.
ETA: I haven't worn any of the clothes yet except the bebands And I also bought WTEWYE and the Mayo Guide and Ina May's Guide to Childbirth.
I was buying a gift for a friend having a baby shower, so I bought a few extra cute onesies on Cafepress.com. In case you haven't been to this site, they have really cute, funny onesies.

Nothing! I had my positive test 2 weeks ago and DH knows. But I am utterly terrified to tell anyone, buy anything, or practically sneeze! I am just so scared to jinx it!
When we were TTC I bought a few onesies here and there but since getting KU, I have been terrified to buy baby stuff. Once second trimester hits I'm sure I will start getting excited. I think I may buy baby a few xmas gifts this year

I bought a newborn onesie and matching pants that were on clearance last week at Gymboree with my Gymbucks - they ended up being about $2 each with the discount. They are pink and green striped, so there's a little wishful thinking on my part :-)
I've also never bought skinny jeans, and I really want some for the fall. I don't want to buy non-maternity ones that I'll only be able to wear for a few weeks, so I'm very tempted to buy some maternity ones at Gap or Old Navy. I have a 40% off coupon good tomorrow only to Gap, so I might have to go over there tomorrow...

I went out yesterday and bought WTEWYE, Your pregnancey week by week and two books on pregnancy nutrition. I can't bring myself to buy anything for baby just yet. But we did go to a fair on Saturday after getting our BFP and DH won a stuffed frog and said it was for the baby and he put it in the room that will be the nursery!

I haven't bought anything, however that's not the same for my family. My mother bought us some pacifiers, a toy, a calendar for me to keep track of appointments, and bibs for a boy or a girl. My sister went and bought me a ton of Maternity clothes, mostly work clothes, I have a job where I have to dress nice, dress pants, dressy shirts, etc... So she bought me a bunch of work shirts, a bunch of dresses, a pair of jeans and capris. They went over and above and I am very thankful for what they have done. I can't bring myself to buy anything though as of yet.
Of course though I am going to Old Navy to return one of the pairs of jeans and I might feel so inclined to buy one thing for the baby!
**February 20th, 2010 I Married My Best Friend and June 5th, 2011 My Soulmate Was Born**
We bought a little doggy for the baby from the paper store. Its the little soft blanket that has an animal head. love them. I bought a book and a journal. My friend gave me a ton of her books. My mom told me last night she bought the first sleeper for the baby.
Just books (WTEWYE, Pregnancy week by week, mayo clinic book) and a pregnancy journal. I won't buy baby clothes for a looong time. I am way too nervous

Too funny you asked that today. I had to go out and buy a Chicago Bears and Cubs onesies. Can't wait for DH to see them!

Maternity jeans... that I wear often
In my defense, they were too tight to begin with and with this bloat I'm rockin, it's uncomfortable!
