To begin with I was desperate to buy things but I put myself off because I wanted to make sure things were going to be ok, but now I've got to the stage where I think I really ought to have bought something and I'm starting to panic but where do I start?

I've had loads of baby clothes given to me so I don't need to worry about that but I just don't know what else to buy and when.

In the back of my mind I am thinking that I can wait till I go to the baby show at the NEC on 17th May but I might not actually buy anything there, I don't know what the show is like. Gosh I've got myself in a pickle

Don't worry - I'm sure you'll get it all sorted before baby arrives

I haven't bought anything yet either and won't until after my scan in 12 days time - so I'll be nearly 22 wks by then. I think I'll start with the buggy and go from there.

So far all we have is some booties etc which my mum is busily making for us - so you're well ahead of us!

Don't worry about it,the last three months you'll have nothing to do but shop because the waiting will be so exhausting...Everything will be sorted out before the big day...

I have to say we have a very different problem,I'm scared that I'll buy too much!

Don't worry I'm the same, I haven't bought anything and am now thinking pants I should really start getting bits and pieces but just haven't. Going to a closing down sale tomorrow, they have 30% off but I can say now it's not likely I'll actually buy anything!!

I have only bought a few special things i like op-top of what friends have given me, My baby shower is the end of June im waiting until then to see what i dont get before i go out and spend anything we dont need to be spending.
Good Luck

I haven't bought a single thing and I mean NOTHING!!!! At the start I was sooooo worried about something happening to beanie that I was too cautious to buy anything but now I think I should be buying something......

I finish semester 2 at uni in 2 weeks time so I will have not much to do during the rest of my pregnancy so I will start then. Everything will be white, cream or yellow cos I have a yellow bump!

I have been given a cute little Winnie the Poo Moses basket by a friend and it is gorgeous - makes it seem to real

i dont know how u have waited this long i started buying things when i was 6 weeks. I was the same with my first too. I love shoppig for baby stuff.

I started at 28 weeks and I'm finishing today.

Why,did you buy every possible baby thing in the stores?

Thanks to all of you. I feel a bit better now that I know I'm not on my own. I guess it will give me something to think about at least in the coming weeks.
