When did you start buying?
I just wanted to hear what other people did. I am eleven weeks (well, this week) and I'm desperate to buy something. My husband has some sort of hissy fit everytime I mention it as I miscarried before and I think he thinks the shop assitant is going to put a spell on me if they know I'm not 12 weeks yet. Would love to hear when everyone else first bought something - anything!!! Thanks Claire x

On the day we found out we were having a boy my mum bought out the debenhams sale of blue clothes & was waiting on the doorstep when we got back from Kings so we now only need to buy things like sleeper suits & baby grows.
I can understand your hubbies concern but you need to have fun with the pregnancy too.
I have almost everything I need from my daughter as I didnt know what I was having with her so I have all white newborn things and crib, cot, towels, etc and if this ones a girl im sorted!!
I have bought a new pram as first one is too big not very practical when I will have a toddler with me this time round!- got it this week end that was the only big thing I needed to get..... I also got a new steam steriliser...and some bottles, planning on breast feeding but have them for stand by!!!
Im about done now just a few odds and ends and Im 24 weeks, but if I didnt already have all the other things I would still need lots....its deffinatley cheaper second time round!!!
good luck with your pregnancy- Shay
My mum has found a spare baby car seat in the charity shop to keep in her car & also a couple of play mats with toy arches for a couple of quid as they are 30+ quid in the shops. I love a bargain but like you wanted a new pram & cot but love 2nd hand.
So come on, fess up, have you bought anything yet & more importantly has hubby been told?
