I started after my 20 week scan. We found out the sex, but also just wanted to make sure that everything was okay with the baby.

Best of luck with your pregnancy x

Well I'm 26 weeks and knew from the start I wouldn't be buying anything before at least the beginning of the third trimester. I was too worried in case something went wrong. I feel more relaxed now, we are going on holiday when I'm 28 weeks for a few days and then it's Easter etc probs starting gradually buying stuff when I'm about 30 weeks or so. Want to get the pram first though as that will be our biggest purchase.

I bought one baby grow at 25 weeks purely out of excitement, then didn't get anything else until I was around 30 weeks.
I'm now 35 weeks and bought most things over the past couple of weeks. To be honest I'm glad I didn't buy anything any earlier as its taking over my house! We've not sorted a nursery out yet so I currently have baby things all over the place which isn't good for my nesting / OCD!

I started at about 15 weeks, couldn't help myself and there was a sale on 😳 really got going after we found out the gender at 17 weeks. Now 34+4 and he's fully stocked from birth through to 9 months of age. Its so addictive!!
