Anyone buy any baby stuff yet?

teaformeplease · May 2015

i know its very early but I bought a cute unisex outfit at Carter's while buying some gifts for friends and I bought an Ergobaby carrier- they are on good sale at REI this weekend and I had a credit there. Figured I can return if we don't like it. Anyone buy anything yet?

jmclean101 · May 2015

Yup! I'm a FTM and am buying gender neutral clothes like crazy!

Jacilove86 · May 2015

I bought a pair of baby shoes today to use in an announcement and they are the most adorable things I have ever seen! Nothing else though.

nlwz123 · May 2015

Not yet. I come from a pretty oldschool family and generally we don't buy things until much later on. I'll admit that before we even got pregnant, back in October I was super tempted to buy some baby Halloween stuff. haha

wlux · May 2015

I have a list of baby items that I want this time around.

But we are moving from WNY to either FL or TX in September. I'm cooling my jets until I have the space and I don't want movers jacking stuff up.

I've tried not to. I miscarried last Nov. So I told myself I would wait the 12 weeks to feel safe. Then....I go shopping and things are just sooo cute! I have bought a stuffed animal, Superman onsie, and two cloth diapers lol

aporcelainface · May 2015

I have tried really hard not to, but there were a few Etsy items that I knew were not going to be available around 12 weeks, which is when I want to really begin buying some gender neutral things. So I bought 3 onesies and daddy-to-be bought one thing as well.

I mean, come on, there has to be another Labyrinth lover on here.

EmXa · May 2015

Nope I am waiting for the 12 week mark before I buy anything. I don't plan to buy to much other then the essentials, especially since my baby is due the week after Christmas, I have a feeling all the gifts will be for the baby.

Annguz · May 2015

Not yet. If it's another boy, I won't need any clothes, because we already have so many.

maimadya · May 2015

Nothing yet. Will probably buy something after my first doctor's visit. At the moment I am busy checking out car seats. I really want a pretty cool one. :x

saraawlbr · May 2015

I haven't bought anything since my BFP but, I worked at Cartrer's Osh Kosh while in college and would stock up on sleepers and onesies when they went on sale. How could I not stock up when they were $1 or less? So I have a bunch of boy and girl stuff. I just need to remember where I stashed it!

AngelaK88 · May 2015

We haven't bought anything yet. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law who are baby crazy have given us some things as a joke before we were pregnant that I've held onto (baby socks, 2 bibs). We haven't announced to anyone yet. We are very excited to share the news hopefully after our first appointment if everything checks out good!

KimC2010 · May 2015

Nothing but a origami mobile kit I bought before my mc in January. Don't plan to till 2nd trimester.

debrowling · May 2015

I haven't bought anything yet, but plan to buy one small thing in thr next week or so. A friend is now 23 weeks along, who has had several miscarriages around 8 weeks, and I'm going shopping to buy her something special, and might just pop something for our little one in the trolley!

jspraag · May 2015

The day I found out I was pregnant I bought a mamaroo baby swing. My other 2 babies had swings and they loved it. I got so excited I had to get one. lol.

Heron422 · May 2015

I'm slowly pulling out all the stuff I bought with my first pregnancy. I can't do the toys or onesies yet, just shirts. C'mon 12 weeks

MEA0320 · May 2015

Just a pair of TOM'S for our announcement - I ended up using them to tell our parents about the awesome news. But planning to wait until I hit the 12 week mark... Still looking at everything to get ideas.

boxers&bling · May 2015

Haven't gotten anything yet and probably won't for awhile. We are currently living with my parents while my husband builds our house so space is limited right now. I'm going to try to hold off on most things until we get moved into our new house... We'll see how long I can actually wait tho to start buying stuff!

Come live by me in Florida pls

I grew up in Texas and it is all the heat but no beach. FL FL FL

CamilleJon · May 2015

With my first BFP I went out and bought a onsie the same day so I say go for it!

This time around that is not happening. Since we are moving in 2 weeks we had a garage sale last Saturday and sold tons of our baby stuff... then got the BFP 2 days later =D>

ChelseyBels · May 2015

I'm waiting. I want to, but I can wait. Sorta.

khf221979 · May 2015

I really want to but haven't. We are waiting until after the 1st trimester. I have been looking at cribs and strollers and stuff and everytime we go to any store and walk by the baby department I always look but I'm trying not to buy anything yet.

Mamabeagle · May 2015

I love baby stuff, and while I have a mental list going I haven't bought anything yet. DH doesn't know it yet, but we will be buying everything on sale at Janie & Jack as soon as we find out what we're having!

kmcc14 · May 2015

I'm a couponer, so I've been getting some diapers, but only when they are super cheap (like less than $4 a sleeve). I do want to buy a gender-neutral I Love Daddy onesie to give DH on Father's Day. DH's brother and his wife are saving a bunch of baby stuff for us, which is really nice. And my church will throw me a baby shower, so I'm really not planning to buy a ton of stuff.

scobb1990 · May 2015

We bought quite a few things but only because my doctor have me coupons to get them for free!

Anna.acb · May 2015

Nothing yet, but I'm making a list. I will probably buy the newest uppababy vista because it deals with the second seat much better than the 2014 model that I have. Hopefully we can sell our old stroller and catch the new one on sale at pishposhbaby usually strollers go one sale in November so trying to be patient.

evavivalasvegas · May 2015

I figured I would do that at the third trimester. I am to nervous to get any stuff now.

selea · May 2015

I know its early but I can't help it! I've bought 2 packs of diapers when I've caught them on a great sale, a baby monitor and a gender neutral onsie. I figure I can always return anything we don't end up needing and would rather space out purchases to get little things each month so its not so overwhelming at the end.

narissa2013 · May 2015

My husband got a toy tea set for me when we were ttc. I have been fighting the urge to buy things so far but plan on getting a baby football jersey for him for fathers day. I think once I buy one thing, I wont be able to stop.

DjinnaG · May 2015

Haven't bought anything - a) nowhere to put anything until we purge a whole lot from the nursery-to-be and b) I only let myself start thinking that it's really happening once we saw the heartbeat two days ago, since we had a BO the first time. But, I did take some free samples of diapers at the Costco a couple weeks back, well before the BFP, actually, probably the day before ovulation. Got the largest size they had, with the thinking that I could give them to my brother for his youngest if nothing happened for us. Magic diaper samples!

babybluu · May 2015

The first week I found out I bought a pack of receiving blankets because they were on clearance and they were soooo cute. Plus I was so excited to finally have a reason to buy baby stuff. Then the next week I bought a pack of onesies to use for our announcement. So we still have some of those left over. And then last week I bought a giant pack of diapers because it was on clearance. Seriously, 148 size 1 diapers for$17??? No way I passing that up lol. I only kind of feel guilty....

hplunkett2883 · May 2015

Someone gave me a handmade quilt and hand knitted booties. I don't want to buy anything yet. I have been looking though.

danasphillips · May 2015

No. Still trying to get rid of crap from the first child. I feel like I have the opposite of nesting- the overwhelming need to purge like crazy. I'm going to try to go very minimalist with this baby. They actually don't need much at all.

jrpolzella · May 2015

We are starting to look for really good deals on buy sell and trade. Found a potential used stroller that seems in good shape that we are looking at tonight.... however we're not buying anything new yet.

willashbaby · May 2015

I bought some random things on amazon last year during black friday. I have a Moby wrap, 2 pack n plays (one for my Mom) and some random cute bedding I liked. I figured I would use it eventually or give it to other people as they had babies if I didn't. Other than that I'm not planning on buying anything until 20 weeks and then I plan on buying the crib and waiting for black Frday again to buy my stash of CDs. Everything else is going on the registry!

amt20 · May 2015

2 stuffed animals before my 1st mc. I will not buy anything else until I'm well into the 2nd trimester at the very least.

teachmegs817 · May 2015

I bought a pack of bibs (we are going to use these as part of our gift/reveal to his parents) A box of baby wipes, to start stocking up. I will probably buy a box every 3-4 weeks. Plus, I have 2 nephews who go through wipes like crazy, so I'm sure it'll become communal property once I bring some over to my Dad and Moms house.

Mommyduclos · May 2015

I'm waiting until after the anatomy scan. I'll only need clothes, bedding, a bouncy chair, a moby, some burp rags/receiving blankets, newborn diapers, and a car seat.

carlyhammond · May 2015

I haven't bought anything.
I've been avoiding the baby department like the plague though.
I'll probably wait until after 12wks or even 20wks.
We are in search for a house, not really sure if i want to go ahead and buy or just wait until we move.

The only thing I REALLY want to buy is a gender neutral piggy bank. I have a lot of change (I'm a waitress) - I was thinking I can give it to little blip for the future. -shrugs-

rsottile · May 2015

We already have just about everything...crib, changing table, bouncers, clothes and more clothes....guess when you are the last to have kids everyone gives you everything...so blessed

bkc92 · May 2015

I bought absolutely nothing until around 20ish weeks with my first, and I regretted it a lot later. We're finding out the gender around 20 weeks, so I'm trying to stay away from clothing or anything that we'll be buying gender specific.

We ended up getting rid of the bottles DS used, so I've bought one pack of bottles. We're waiting until after the first ultrasound to buy anything else. I'm going to try to get any gear/etc that's being bought gender neutral before 20 weeks. So double stroller, second space saver high chair, white onesies, bottle accessories (drying rack, brush, etc). A few other things but I can't remember off the top of my head.

I'm definitely going to be shopping the end of summer sales in September though! I didn't do that when pregnant with DS (even after I found out his gender), and I so wish I would have.
