I'm not sure if it's due to my husband's Jewish superstitions or what, but we just haven't gotten around to it.<br /> I guess I figure there's no real reason to buy anything yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6995 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:11:17 +0000 sandsandmore 6995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a green bib that said "I love Daddy" and gave it to my husband. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6982 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:05:04 +0000 katdevargas 6982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought these super cute moccasins from gilt {I think?} - we aren't finding out the sex, so they'll be nice for a boy or a girl, I think &amp; they were just so stinking cute </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6968 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:48:45 +0000 duetletterpress 6968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a pair of pink shoes :] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6964 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:34:08 +0000 mediagirl 6964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were at a yard sale in August, before we were pg but after we were ttc. I saw a sea-life lamp and some pictures of baby turtles, octopus, fish, etc at a house where the owner was walking around with his 3 week old baby in arms. I asked about it and they decided not to use those items. Scored four pictures and 1 lamp for $12. That's all we have so far. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6960 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:12:56 +0000 Jenna 6960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@nycalimama, I was so upset that babystyle shut down!

I bought a onesie that says "Daddy's Fishing Buddy" (<a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/84540003/cute-little-daddys-fishin-buddy-burp" rel="nofollow">http://www.etsy.com/listing/84540003/cute-little-daddys-fishin-buddy-burp</a>). If our ultrasound next week goes well (10.5 weeks) I will give it to him that night : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6835 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:55:24 +0000 looch 6835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't tell DH in a cute way, he was practically in the bathroom with me when I POAS, so there was no way to surprise him.</p> <p>I think the first thing I bought was a load of unisex baby clothes from Ralph Lauren. We didn't know the sex until the birth, so that helped with the clothes overload for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6826 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 22:13:59 +0000 Red 6826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to make wedding cakes before my LO came and I couldn't resist this little baby chef costume with chef's hat..........that I forgot about 'til she outgrew it, lol.

I told my husband about them on the phone and he thought I was crazy but once he saw them in person and realized what I was talking about he got so excited because he has such fond memories of those same books when he was a kid. We just took a trip to celebrate our anniversary and found some more and he actually brought up the idea of adding to our collection. It was so sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6810 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 21:07:59 +0000 Boogs 6810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought an "I love daddy" bib for my hubby when I told him I was pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6799 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:58:02 +0000 geekinheels 6799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We tried our best not to go too crazy with baby purchases, and I managed to hold off until I was 3 months pregnant when I saw a onesie at Baby Gap and I *had* to get it. It features a picture of Darth Vader and says "My Dad Is Awesome" on it: <a href="http://geekinheels.squarespace.com/storage/baby_gap_my_dad_is_awesome_onesie.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://geekinheels.squarespace.com/storage/baby_gap_my_dad_is_awesome_onesie.jpg</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6797 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:57:12 +0000 leelee 6797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>dH is a huge Anaheim Ducks fan so I ordered a AD onesie and beanie for the baby. So far that's pretty much it, I'm sure I'll go crazy on black Friday though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6786 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:46:40 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 6786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Superbaby bib, bottle, and pacifiers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6756 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:23:13 +0000 Jenna 6756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're not expecting and I've already purchased a few things for a future nursery: A world map from Future Mapping Company and a dachshund stuffed animal/pillow from Pillow Pillow Pillow : )</p> <p>I nearly bought a Schoenhut toy piano when they were on Gilt a while back, but I don't really have the space to keep it now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6743 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:03:20 +0000 Weagle 6743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a wooden Noah's Ark play set before we were even trying.

I put a onesie inside a new shirt for him, gave him the shirt, and then asked him to try it on. He found the onesie inside and it took a few seconds for it to register. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-thing-you-bought-for-baby#post-6724 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 19:14:36 +0000 singingbee 6724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are not pregnant yet, but we bought a highchair from some friends.

We also bought a small teddy bear when we found out that our miscarriage was definitely going to happen.</p> <p>What was the first thing you bought for your baby when you found out you were pregnant? </p>
