Buying bits

Have you bought any bits for baby? When are you planning on buying bits? People tell me I should wait till at least 20 weeks but I like to be organised and I don’t wanna rush things later on in the pregnancy. But then I’m so worried about tempting fate 🙃

I like to thrift clothes so I have started getting the odd unisex bit here and there. But don’t go to crazy on the newborn 0/3 or 3/6 cus they don’t stay in them long

@Suzie I have a couple bits that I left behind when buying other people bits 😅 but otherwise have nothing yet

I won’t be buying anything until I know the gender, which I plan on having an early gender scan for!

@Ella we won’t be finding out 🫣 so that makes things a little harder 😅 but I just can’t stop looking at baby clothes 😩

@Dominika I’m too impatient to not know the gender 😂 although I didn’t actually buy anything for my son till 27 weeks 😂😂😂

@Ella I would love to find out but my partner doesn’t 🙃

I won’t be buying a thing until I’m after 12 weeks and had a scan because I feel like I’d be jinxing it 🫣 with my first I bought nothing until after 20 weeks.

@Ellie my mum said not to buy anything until 28 weeks but I can’t wait that long 🙃 I just want to buy cute outfits

I will be waiting for my 12 week scan before buying anything. Congratulations x

@Dominika girl if you want to find out the gender you do it xx just tell them not to tell your partner. First pregnancy’s are important and having people telling you what you should or shouldn’t do isn’t the vibe.. also if you wanna buy them cute outfits you buy them xx

@Suzie I do understand what you’re saying but if I was to find out I still wouldn’t be able to get any outfits for baby as I would spoil the surprise for my partner 😅 but it’s exciting to have a surprise

I bought loads my last pregnancy and then i miscarried. So i’ll probably wait this time🫣

@Holly that’s what I’m worried about. Jinxing it 🙃 but just gotta be positive about it all

I'm not buying anything new until I know the pregnancy is viable and baby is OK if it's a boy we have everything in the loft lol

@Dominika you won’t jinx it. It’s just more the physical reminder of it. I had to lock all the stuff in a drawer & not look at it🫣but i’m gonna go look what i have now i’ve just found out i’m pregnant again xxx

We’ve got an early scan booked towards end of Aug so I’m trying to hold off until then. Have got the Emma’s Diary bags and a baby box thing from your baby club in excitement though.

@Amy did you pay for shipping for the baby box? We have an early scan in two weeks time. So excited to see little heartbeat

Yes paid the delivery think it was £10 but when we got it and priced up contents it was £50-60 worth of stuff in there
