Ill be getting a pram within the next 4 weeks from my parents, and im not thinking about a cot yet cos wont need it for a while. but still need a LOT.

Thats also why I am trying to do it bit by bit. I can add up if you have to go buy all at once.

We've been stocking up on diapers since the first trimester! They cover the whole top of his closet, plus what's under his changing table. Actually, we started buying everything in the first/second trimesters, like the stroller and car seat, etc. But we only got the crib set two weeks ago! I like to be prepared and couldn't wait to buy things!

ive got one of those plastic set of drawers...two are full of wipes and nappys piled as high as my bedroom window. ive got a baby box full of tolietries as well as one of the drawers having items in it, and i started as soon as id had my 12 week scan lol...
ive done it bit by bit but i blame my mum..if it wasnt for her id be so disorganised lol!

I have had everything bought since week 25. I dont want the hassle of having to worry about it in 3rd tri. Where I live we only have walmart and kmart. The closest mall is 2 hours away. I bought about 2 months of diapers and 1 month of formula so that should all be ready.

I also started to pack bags. Babys bag is ready and now I have to get mine situated. I am not really a last minute person. In fact, we are going to make a big mall trip in 3 weeks and get all the Christmas shopping done. That was I dont have to worry about it after having my c-section.

Only 9 weeks left.

yeah... I remember the size 1 were a touch big with my son and he was 10lbs. So I bought 1 pack of newborns and 4 boxes of size 1. I couldnt remember how long it took him to grow out of the size 1 so I didnt buy too many.

Thankfully my mom started buying stuff the week I found out I was preggo. Since then I have more then what I need. At least enough wipes/diapers to last me 3-4 months and a closet/dresser full of clothes and I still haven't had my baby shower (I am having two). One of them is this Saturday and I am siked! I will be sure to post loads of piccies on here.
