I haven't bought anything for the baby yet I am 21 weeks should I worry? When should I start buying? I am not having a baby shower because I can buy everything myself.

I bought 12 outfits from the mall and only spend 40 dollars thats it

Oh, idk what that is? I bought some nursing bra's from MM and they sent me coupons for a lot of different things, but not that. I bought the majority of my maternity clothes from Burlington.com and walmart.com since where I live there isn't any cheap maternity stores. I hate to buy clothes that I can only wear for a few months and pay a lot. I also got a lot from Kohl's too.

I bought my maternity wear at motherhood and they gave me a $167 gift coupon, I don't know how to use it since I am foreign, it's just in my cabinet.

[princesslo007]

You're welcome. Yeah I think Kohl's is the only place I actually shopped. Because we got so much for free, and then with gifts, I just haven't had to buy many clothes. Everything else though we did, and that's where I couponed. lol.

What? That's a deal to crave. . ;) waoh I have a card with Belk but I don't see them having nice baby stuff. I have checked them out. Thanks though.

Im twenty four weeks And I just bought my first few out fits a few days ago

I have a lot of luck with Kohl's. They always have TONS on sale and then I have a Kohl's card so I get coupons, that help out a lot. The one day I went there I saved $120 and I only spend like $20.18!

I was so proud, I still have the reciept hanging on my fridge lol.

Waoh wishing you luck, as we prepare for motherhood. I am thinking maybe buy buy Baby or macys.. i also checked out Tjmax but It's tough. Especially that I will be having him on winter.

[princesslo007]

Don't bother with designer stuff, baby will grow out of it like mad! I suggest if you have a nice thrift shop in the area go there. We got most of our sons clothes free at a military thrift shop we have on our base. 99% of the items we got were brand new with tags still, because babies grow so fast!

Yeah were due in 4 weeks, but I don't think I'm going to make it that long because I've been in preterm labor for 2 weeks.

I'm 23 weeks and haven't bought anything just yet!

[Madonah]

I'm also having a son. Waoh. Dec must be boys month.

[Madonah]

Problem is my husband wants fancy and designer stuff for the baby.. i kind of think that will cost us a lot. Haha he keeps saying i want the best. He doesn't want me to go anywhere a lone. Terrible.

[princesslo007]

Sounds great! I have a complete list of stuff that we stockpiled for my son in my journals that you can use to cross reference the things that you need! Good luck with all your shopping!

[Madonah]

Thank you. I just added in my calendar September as the month to buy Baby stuff.

[princesslo007]

I would start buying now. We bought all of our big items (pack n play, crib, bedroom furniture) when I hit my 3 month mark and then waited on gender specific stuff for after we found out we were having a boy at week 20!
