I'm so baby obsessed and dying to purchase some things and start my CD stash... What did you buy before getting pregnant or did you not buy anything until u had that BFP? Is it like counting your chickens before they hatch?

Nothing until I got a BFP, and then still nothing until I saw the heartbeat at 8 weeks.

I bought the Juicy Couture "Couture Baby" diaper bag that I had wanted for forever:) I got it at the outlet for the day after Thanksgiving sale last year. So that was in November, and we didn't get pregnant with a healthy baby until March, so it sat in the back of my closet for ages and I kind of forgot about it. But now I'm really glad I went ahead and got it because it was like 60% off retail!

@JHoller25: I was trying to hold off until 12 weeks (to make the first purchase), but when I found the Rebecca Minkoff "Knocked Up" bag in Python right around 8-9 weeks (for a steal), I just couldn't resist. And I love bags, so it totally made sense that my first purchase would be a diaper bag.

Nothing! I was afraid that I would jix myself. Now that I am 6 weeks I still won't until. Going to wait till the 2nd tri before I buy anything.

I didn't buy anything before our BFP, but I did put our name on a waiting list for day care (it's crazy where we live.)

Nothing...I bought a crib and bedding a little after 20 weeks and that was really still about the only thing we bought. Everything else has been gifted to us.

Nothing. I was too paranoid. As soon as we got our BFP tho, I started stacking up on Cloth Diapers. Other than maternity clothes, our baby purchases didn't start until week 19/20.

We bought a used BOB from a cousin before we started trying. She needed to sell it so she could upgrade to a double BOB and she gave us a great deal so we didn't want to miss out. Other than that I didn't buy anything until 19 weeks when my MIl bought us the nursery furniture. I didn't want to jinx anything. And really it stressed me out to do it at 19 weeks but she was in town for just a weekend so we didn't have a choice.

I bought a onesie for DH as a "hey, we're having a baby!" gift. Other than that, though, nothing. I'm 15 weeks now and I've gotten a lovie and a knit Phillies hat. We've looked at furniture and stuff, but haven't actually purchased anything. Probably will wait until after the anatomy scan, so we know what we're shopping for.

Nothing until week 15 or so! I didn't want to jinx myself.
