Want to buy Everything!

edited February 2014 in May 2014 Moms

I don't think I'm in full "nesting mode" yet, but I'm in "want to buy everything" mode at the moment.  Mostly cloth diaper supplies. Except I feel guilty about spending a bunch of money. So I keep saving things in a registry or wish list and stare at it for days.  I did finally buy a few things today which I think helped that "craving" but I really want to dress up the nursery a bit more but not sure what to buy to make it feel perfect.

I know it's terrible, but sometimes I wish this was #1 for me so I could put things on a real registry for family to buy. Eek I just judged myself for even saying that!  But for real, I am in spend-mode. Anyone else feeling this way?

Re: Want to buy Everything!

  • I totally feel this way!  I have to refrain from buying things because I want to have everything!

  • Ummm yes. This is exactly where I am at. I created a registry so I could get the deal with the BRU gift card at the end but it's just for myself. I want to buy all the things off of it, right now. Not happening though.

  • Yes! I'm the same way. It seems like every day I'm waiting for a package or driving out to by something. Clothes, decor, and mostly cloth diapers. My husband asked me yesterday, so we've got enough diapers now, right? I was like uhhh about half our stash... Fortunately I've been able to find some really good deals. I probably need to slow down now and see what works for us before I buy too many more OS diapies. And start focusing on getting the house in order instead. You're not alone by any means!

    I know how you feel.  My shower is apparently not until the end of April which is now making me feel like I won't have enough time to pick up the rest of the items I may need before she arrives or even will I feel like running to the store to finish up at that point.  I might just go ahead and buy her bedding, travel system and bottles, might make me feel better in case I go early.
    Could you buy it now and return if you get duplicates? No one would know.

  • When I saw your post---I thought it was about food...as in I want to buy everything at the grocery store---b/c I am a little fat kid who wants nom noms.. BUT yes, I want to buy all the baby things too and I have been...and plus also...donuts, chips, pizza and other delicious noms.

     

  • The only thing keeping me from buying ALL THE THINGS!!!!! Is that my baby shower is in three weeks... And that some of the stuff I can't/shouldn't register for (wall decals etc) are already bought and slowly making their way to me.

    I am feeling incredibly acquisitive right now though. It's hard to stop adding things to my secret wish list (future shopping cart) and wait.

  • Yes!!!  I just clicked over here from my secret Amazon baby registry.  I did share my Target one with my mom and she actually went and bought some stuff on it!  So exciting...love grandmas!
    The only thing holding me back from buying lots of new diapers is that we are team green, so I want to buy gender specific ones in cute prints after we're out of the newborn stage!

  • This is the reason I am avoiding the outlet mall.  I want to buy ALL the adorable summer boy outfits that I know they have at Carters.  The small amount for sale at Target is testing my self control as it is!
