too soon?

I'm 26 weeks pregnant and so far have gotten my stroller/carseat/swing/bouncyseat/packnd'play (all of craig'slist at a really good deal, all basically brandnew) and finished the nursery walls (stenciling and name letters). Am I doing this too early? I want to stagger it all throughout these last 3 months because that way I won't be spending a huge amount of money all at once. Next I plan on getting the crib (MIL is getting it) and I was going to do that this weekend or next ... then the crib bedding ... then all I have to do is wait until the shower for the rest of the stuff, then go shopping for what's leftover. Am I doing this too soon?! When did you all do these things?

lol i also have everythin ready for my baby, i had it all in March lol, i jus need to buy a few more clothes and then start buyin nappys and stuff  

I have everything I even have two packs of pampers. One newborn and One Stage one. And all her clothes. I just have to pack my hospital bag and I'm ready for D-day. Well, and put her stuff back together since we're moving but I had it all up and ready.

I started to prepare pretty much everything around 25 weeks.I didnt want to wait because I knew I wouldnt have the energy to do it later and it would have never gotten done...

So no I dont think its to early  

I am due next monday and still dont have a place for the little one to sleep.

I just bought her carseat/stroller over the weekened and 2 nights ago finally got the last of her baby clothes.

I am glad I waited because now just looking at all of her clothes and car seat and everything I feel like smashing my head against the wall waiting for her lazy bum to come out. Time flew by soooo fast for me because I had NOTHING ready until well 2 nights ago lol

I don't think its too soon. I went 8 weeks early and I was all ready  

I had her room done by 17 weeks. I made it so it could go for either sex. I did not get all the other stuff done 32 weeks after my baby shower.

btw you should buy the car seat new. Even tho it looks brand new you dont know what happened to it from the last people. They have been in a car crash or droped it really hard. Or they may have miss used it and none of that damage would been seen by anyone.

Its not too early at all.
I've had ben's stuff done since around that time.
You'll always find more stuff to do over the next few months of waiting,
you'll reorganize, try to make sure everything is in its "perfect" spot, wash clothes, go through the clothes a million times, lol. trust me, you'll have plenty to do & besides, once you're about 30 wks or more you can start the hospital bags

i still have hardly nothing ready and am due in 6 and a half weeks.....the most i have done is have like half of her clothes and blankest washed...i havent painted organized or put away anything lol

i should get on that

wow your on top of things! i am now 34 weeks .. i still gotta but up the crib and get the bottles and a few extra things but im pretty much ready. i didnt wanna do it early bc then it seemed like it would take even longer. but i wish i would have now!

aww shit i forgot about washing everything .. lol yea i still have a lot to do.

I'm asking myself the same question, I didn't buy anything yet but I want to start in the next two weeks and I wonder if it's too early... But I may be too tired to do anything in the next months so I should better start.

I did it all when I found out what I was having at 20 weeks! So no, I don't think its too soon. I was also packed at 5 months. That is probably not normal but I went through this crazy nexting phase at 5 and 6 months and then I did nothing. Now I am 5 weeks away and starting to nest again getting everything clean and organized and the last things I will need. Baby shower is Sunday and after that I can get the last few things and put everything in its place. I am sure the last 3 weeks or so I will be bored with nothing to do but hey, I'll just sleep! I won't feel like doing anything anyways.
