Better get to it! Sometimes baby surprises you and makes an early arrival. My first son was born at 36 weeks and 3 days. With this pregnancy I am 36 weeks right now and have all the "right away" necessities just in case. Definitely check out thrift stores. I bought my car seat brand new box unopened at goodwill for $20 because the buckle piece had a recall. I sent it in and received the new piece at no charge :) also, a mini crib is a cheaper option or bassinet. I've heard of people using play yards as well. -good luck! And have a safe delivery
