Do you ever see things you want to buy?

acv_17 · May 15th, 2008, 16:55 PM

I have bought a few things, an owl toy, a couple packages of baby washcloths, a couple books, and I crocheted a baby blanket(I was originally going to be given to a friends grandaughter)...nothing big and easily tucked away into a drawer... Anyway, I went into a new thrift store and saw this adorable antique looking cradle for $30! If I was pregnant or had a garage to put it in I would have bought it.

lol, when my friend was pg last year, there was a new shopping centre with a new baby shop and great opening specials. It was really hard watching her buy all these great baby things for so cheap.....but i also am thankfull that I earn a good salary and can afford everything I want and have so many hand me downs from older sibling and in laws.....(still cant resist buying pregnancy clothes on sales though) ha ha

It's so hard not to buy things when WTT and TTC

Hi im sort of new on here but was reading this thread and this def applies to me. Yesterday me and my partner had a hospital appointment thinking that he was going to suggest IVF cuz my partner had a vasectomy years ago but to our surprise he agreed to do a vasctomy reversal within 4 months instead, so we wer both over the moon and have started to get so excited at the prospect of possibly being pregnant by the end of the year we went out and bought some baby gros and hats and socks etc. Cant help it, if ur broody, ur broody!
