We are in the adoption process right now as well, so now I can really go crazy and buy baby stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121932 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 21:41:57 +0000 mediagirl 121932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought some nursery decor. It was such a great buy, we couldn't help ourselves! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121902 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 21:24:58 +0000 futuremama 121902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I found them on Amazon, but it looks like they're out of stock now. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00403MT1Q/ref=oh_o01_s01_i00_details" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00403MT1Q/ref=oh_o01_s01_i00_details</a></p> <p>Etsy had some pretty cute onesies that said the same thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121827 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 19:08:18 +0000 Mrs. Pink 121827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my husband always gets on me about trying to buy stuff!! I've created a baby wish list on Amazon though, and actually use it ALOT to buy stuff for friends/relatives when they haven't actually made a registry... kind of like a bookmark of cool baby stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121577 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 15:24:28 +0000 lavender 121577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I was too paranoid and didn't want to jinx myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121461 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 14:44:17 +0000 tequiero21 121461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope... But I did have 2 swaddle blankets I bought for someone else and never got a chance to give it to her..my babies r now using them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121442 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 14:38:17 +0000 Arden 121442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've bought tons of children's books, but we collect books all the time so we didn't even think about it. I would buy other things as well, if we had money to spare right now or if I found an amazing deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121427 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 14:32:22 +0000 Jumpingjacks 121427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've bought some books for babies/small kids. I am a writer and avid reader and I dream of reading stories to a little one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121133 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 11:56:19 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 121133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't bought a thing. I've wanted to though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121074 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 10:55:27 +0000 MsLipGloss 121074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Too superstitious. I also waited until 8 weeks, and after viewing the heartbeat on the u/s before making my first purchase (a diaper bag). After the BFP, It was reeealllly hard to hold back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121070 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 10:51:35 +0000 twodoghouse 121070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I'm afraid it will jinx us. I've been really tempted to though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121012 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:49:39 +0000 MamaMoose 121012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a Bob before we were pregnant. My husband's cousin was selling hers for 50% of retail so it just made sense for us to buy it since I knew I would want one. We haven't bought anything else. I'm 7 weeks now and I'll probably start buying things after our 12 week ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121010 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:46:42 +0000 shinystraps 121010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@GreenThumb: Yeah... I can't believe I actually admitted that :) But I knew I would have to do the refinishing before getting pregnant, due to the sanding and fumes from the staining and all. I finished the nightstand last night and hid it in the closet next to the dresser :) I actually have found my baby stuff kinda reassuring after miscarrying - it's like the hope is still there and someday it'll all get used. That probably sounds really silly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121005 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:43:47 +0000 regberadaisy 121005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I was too afraid of jinxing!</p> <p>@futuremama:<br /> woo where did you find that? Sounds super cute! My husband is a golfer too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-121003 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:43:02 +0000 mrsjyw 121003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was too paranoid. But a couple weeks after we got our BFP, I bought a stash of cloth diapers + cloth diapering book from @sorrycharlie :) </p> <p>I also ordered the free baby sling, (I'm not a fan, it's just an overpriced cheap pillowcase).</p> <p>I went to Target the other day and wanted to peruse the clearance section for baby goods, but they didn't have one! Must be high selling time for baby products! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120998 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:40:44 +0000 Modern Daisy 120998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I've only been trying for about a month. And I'm more NTNT than actually TTC. So once I start seriously TTC at the end of this summer it's possible I will shop and start to decorate the future baby's room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120997 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:39:45 +0000 heffalump 120997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was way too paranoid for that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120993 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:38:25 +0000 LuLu Mom 120993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No I never did, I looked but never bought. I'm 15 weeks and still haven't made any baby purchases, but that will change this weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120992 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:38:12 +0000 PBandBaseball 120992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought a stuffed bear on our honeymoon right after we started TTC and I bought a NY Mets bib but that is it. I feel like I'll jinx us if I buy too much. We actually have a pack-n-play and a jumparoo that my sister bought for our house when she and our niece came to visit from Hawaii. A friend of ours sent us a babyGap onesie with our last name on it last summer and I think she feels bad for sending it since we're still TTC. Hopefully we'll get to use all of this stuff soon!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120989 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:37:07 +0000 GreenThumb 120989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@beka: That is so funny! I was on the verge of buying a cute vintage wooden highchair to paint, but just stopped myself. I'm actually reupholstering a chair for the future nursery but I always say that it could go in the guest room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120979 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:34:11 +0000 MsMini 120979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought some custom onesies for pregnancy reveals, which I promptly hid in the back of a closet until I got my BFP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120975 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:31:47 +0000 shinystraps 120975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>....I bought a duo swing/bouncy chair for a great deal, new and unopened for 70% less than it was in stores. Also bought a baby-bathing tub for $5 on sale on day.</p> <p>It's possible that I've also refinished a dresser and a nightstand in the last month to go in the to-be baby room. It's possible... but I'm not saying whether it actually happened... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120962 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:23:46 +0000 futuremama 120962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a pair of Robeez that look like golf shoes and say Daddy's Little Caddy. My husband is a huge golfer, and I plan to surprise him with them when I get a BFP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120627 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 01:34:41 +0000 BSB 120627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm TTC now and I bought a couple sleepsacks when it was a great price on Woot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-any-of-bought-baby-items-while-ttc#post-120605 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 01:00:12 +0000 Mrs. Pink 120605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm guilty! I bought really, really nice diaper bag from Liv+Co when it was on sale for 60% off once- it's black patent leather, and looks like a giant handbag, so I couldn't pass it up! </p>
