  • Used double jogging stroller for $25!!!  A friend from high school was selling it on Facebook so I snapped it up.  Other than that nothing has been bought but I have a 19 month old so we have just about everything!

  • I frequently buy DVDs off of Amazon since we haven't gotten around to getting cable and probably won't bother for a long time yet. They're usually kid oriented nowadays so I'll be set with my 2u2 on lazy days! At this point I have a sizable Disney collection that child me would've been super jealous of. 
  • Just some maternity clothes for my big ol gut.
    Once I get my test results back assuming all ok I can imagine the shopping flood gates opening, however.

    @msu_gal, there's another thread around here somewhere that started discussing cloth diapers, but I'm not great at digging these things up.

    @lilwonder thanks!  I was looking for that and couldn't find it!

  • @lilwonder yes they have a sale almost everyday so everything I've bought has been on sale. I actually bought the set in blue too! It's so cute! I have $250 in Gap Cash that I can't use until the 11th so I have a bunch more in my cart waiting!

    All of these swaddles from Little Unicorn and a few new maternity clothing items for me! My first thought was that I could gift a couple of the swaddles, but nope... all mine. I love them too much!



    These are huge! I need to figure out to make them smaller- sorry! That's what I get for mobile bump'ing.
    Loving the little unicorn! I've been lusting over the floral designs but alas DNA test says boy! So I'm loving the indigo blue one you have! How is the quality!? I've been following them on Instagram for a while but haven't bought anything! @lilwonder
  • @serenaxo84 - quality is awesome! I also want to get a couple of their fitted crib sheets. Plus they've told me their bandanas bibs will be coming back in stock soon!

  • Fabulous @lilwonder looks like this might be my first purchase! I have a ton of swaddles from DS1! But he still loves his! Glad to know the quality is good!!!
  • We just ordered our new blinds over the weekend. We moved about a month ago and it's sad how excited I am to get blackout blinds for the bedrooms! These curtains just aren't cutting it.
  • @peachykeen17 it's awesome getting different sleep sacks. I went through a bunch before I found ones DS liked and all babies are different.

  • @nauticallife thats exactly what I was thinking! I'm loving the garage sales lately because I'm not spending an arm and a leg on something that my kid might not even like anyway. Good to hear my thought process was on track! 
  • Wow.  Ergobaby just bought Tula for $73mil.  I'm thinking if anyone wants to get a Tula, I wouldn't wait.

  • I started a bundle order with honest.com for diapers... first bundle I got newborns. The next I'm getting size 1... maybe the bundle after that too. I bought him a pair of PediPed shoes, a sleeper, a couple pacifiers... All the summer clothes are out right now, so I'm trying to hold off on clothes for now. I still have towels and cloths from DD.. And the big stuff like a tub, bouncie, rock n play, swing... most is gender neutral, some is pink. But oh well. As long as he has boy clotes, I don't care what the play stuff is. I'll be buying a Graco 4-1 car seat for him as well. Rear facing to booster seat...

    We aren't buying a thing for baby until it's here, but I did just buy one of those massive body pillows for me. I made my husband pay for it :-) I already spent $150 on bras due to our mutual baby making them go up three sizes, so I figure he can chip in too :-)
  • I had a little shopping spree earlier this week at LOFT. Most excited for the yellow shorts and chambray top, but really all these together :)

  • @mrs_hoyahoo, oh man, I love your style! I want it all! <3
  • Clothes to cover my expanding behind and front. Totally a necessity.

    We picked the stroller and car seat we want, now just waiting on a sale.

    We know we'll be getting some stuff in order in awhile, but pretty much assuming we'll go get stuff after as we discover we need it. 

  • I recently bought my first ever Lularoe leggings - 2 pairs - and I've been assured they will be great throughout my pregnancy - not get uncomfortable or anything. So I'm pretty excited since my usual fav leggings are starting to dig into my thighs at the seams.

    Oh how I love shopping!
    weve bought some plain white onesies, Pittsburgh Penguins pacifiers and a jersey. We also bought a play and go or pack and play , whatever it's called. I found one I really like and it happened to be on sale!
    plus my mom has bought diapers, a diaper bag, wash clothes, a box of stuff from the honest company, an outfit and a blanket. AND her husband bought us a stroller and car seat. 
    Plus she has bought me some stretchy pants. 
    First grandchild and needless to say they are excited. 

    Next on my list, jeans. 
    Anyone have any idea if you can get maternity jeans that will fit now and continue to for a while? My jeans hurt. 


    Edit: for question. 
  • Thanks @grannysmith912! Couldn't resist a good sale - now I just hope they fit!

    I finally broke down and bought jeans today. I bought Citizens for humanity racer ultra skinny dark wash and the avedon white jeans. They are both side panel so they will fit now and well into the 3rd trimester.

    @kristah2 I got a pair of AG skinny jeans from a pea in the pod- my last pregnancy and they were amazing. Lasted through my whole pregnancy.  I'm a little heavier this time around so they aren't as comfortable now. Which is such a bummer. I did get a pea in the pod black skinnys for this pregnancy and I love them. I got for a full belly panel as it seems to help kind of keep things in- and supportive. I found that the side panel pants/jeans only worked wel when I was having first trimester bloat. Otherwise they feel like they are falling down constantly. So I vote full belly panel. You also have to buy the size the fits you pre pregnancy. Ideally the rest of you will stay the same and if you go up a size the pants will feel like they are falling down.

    @serenaxo84 how do you keep the full panel up before having a baby belly? I have never bought full panel before. I imagined that I would have a bunch of material gathered at my waistline until 6-7 months when the full panel would have something to go over.

  • Wow.  Ergobaby just bought Tula for $73mil.  I'm thinking if anyone wants to get a Tula, I wouldn't wait.  
    Woah! A Tula is my only "big" purchase I want for this baby and I guess I'll have to get on it! I just can't decide on a color though. I am in love with the floral, but if I have a boy it may look silly (I know it's me wearing it and it shouldn't matter!) and the boring, simplistic part of me wants one that will match everything (like plain black). decisions, decisions!!

  • @NatashaSprout you can fold the panel down or in thirds. It helps to keep it snug. But you've accidentally bought too big it won't help.
