When should I start

When should I start getting stuff for the baby?

Just make sure it's before the baby is born. I didn't buy anything till the last 3 weeks.

Before baby comes! Have a shower around 7-8 months and then buy whatever else you need.

Whenever you feel like it.
I bought a travel system when I was 16 weeks along. I didn't start buying more until I was around 30 weeks.

Thats what I'm thinking, I've already got a carseat, and a bouncer and swing, it was given to me.

I'mma go ahead and start stocking on diapers after a few more months, just cause their expensive, that and formula.

I'm having the baby shower in two states, so I'll def start after.
I just got to start putting back, and plus my taxes will def help me.

I would start buying diapers now and formula if that's how you're feeding LO. Save all the receipts though incase you need to return for a different kind or size.

I'm 28 weeks and all i've bought myself is 1 onesie lol
Though my mom went baby crazy and bought a lot of the big stuff when i was like 7 weeks

Will do, can you get formula with WIC?
and Idk about breastfeeding yet.

We started buying things when we found out examples: boxes of diapers, wipes, the big things we wanted to get ourselves, and then after our baby shower we bought other things we needed.

Make sure the carseat isn't expired. I was told not to use a hand me down carseat. Not only because they can be out of date, but you don't know if they've been in an accident or not. If they have, you have to have it inspected and a lot of times they will say you have to get a new one.

Definitely start stocking up on diapers and wipes now. Get newborn and size 1 just in case the baby is too big for newborn size diapers. And you can stock up on formula if you want but beware of its expiration dates too. Plus, you never know if your baby will like that formula or not. We went through 5 different formulas until we found one my son liked and that agreed with his tummy.

Yeah, diapers are definitely good to stock up on. Just make sure you get a variety of sizes. And though I didn't formula feed, I know a lot of women who did and thei babies had sensitivities to certain brands/types of formula. Maybe just have an account at your bank that you put a set amount of money into for that so you have a little cushion of money?

Yes,that is what wic is for. That,baby cereal/food,bread,whole milk. All when they are of proper age for it.

Thank you, that helped alot.
I'll just probably end up stocking up on baby diapers, wipes, etc.
I'll wait for the formula.
The formula is exspensive, idk how much it is where you are.
But our cheapest is $40 a can.
