Those Due in July! Question?!
posted 17th Mar
For those who are due in July, have you started buying things yet?! If so what?
So far I've been stocking up on wipes, about 8 things of diapers ranging in sizes NB-3 (mostly have 1s) and about 10-12 outfits sizes NB-3 months. Am I going over board or not enough?
Has anyone bought big items yet? I'm just so lost on when and what to buy? Any help or advice! I'm also interested to see what everyone else has so far!

I would say you have plenty for now. I would wait to buy anymore stuff until your baby shower. You can start saving up and put money aside for once your baby shower is over and go use that money to go and get whatever you didnt get from your shower.

Few moms in the july due date thread just ordered all the furniture and are setting up nurserys now

I have all the big items already from my last baby other then the mini crib. We have to fit our will be 18 month old and the new baby in a small bedroom so were going to get a mini crib that can stay in our room for awhile then move into our sons room later on. We have the car seat, swing and dresser/changer . I have some clothes but not a while lot. I tend not to stock up to much on those anyway since babies grow super fast ( i didn't use 1/2 of what we had for my oldest) . I plan on picking up a few more thins in April when I go to a kids consignment sale ( ill be shopping for my three other kids too) . Sometime soon we may pick up some diapers soon but agian they grow so fast I don't want to buy to much.

I have Baby Aiden's whole newborn-0-3 wardrobe, his bouncy seat, pack n play, and I have desinated my MIL to buy the travel system, and my mom to buy my awesome swing! Only thing left for us to buy is a new crib and crib set to match Aiden's nursery them. And as for diapers and wipes I'm gonna see what everyone gets me at my baby shower and if I need more Ill stock up on more.

I am due July 20th and other buying some diapers, wipes, and a few clothes and blankets we have already started buying big stuff. We have bassinet, rocking chair, bedding, crib, and carseat. I don't expect anyone to buy us the big stuff so we started getting it all along. I will wait til after shower to buy any small things we don't have, but want.

I'm due July 18th and I haven't bought a thing yet. Will start soon!

I got almost everything but the crib, and someone is giving me their crib and changing table. I am the type of person that I want to have everything in advance, I don't know about you. But better safe than sorry. Buy the big stuff, so everyone at your baby shower can buy you the diapers and wipes... its going to get costly if you buy those too.

Well lets see, ive got a crib, dresser, baby seat, baby glider, stroller/carseat and bassanet.. all i need now is clothes, blankets and the odds and ends like diapers etc.. i like to be prepaired way before so when the baby is born i dont have to worry about it. Congrats july mommies!

I have all of the big stuff. I still have to get the carseat/stroller. A friend is buying the glider, my sister is getting the high chair and swing. I have just a couple of outfits. My shower is in May, so I will wait until after then before I guy more clothes or anything else because the big stuff is pretty much taken care of.

Hello i am responding to you because im due july 2nd and i also have two other babys. Buying clothes in that is good to have but you dont want to buy to many diapers because you really cant predict on how big your baby is going to be or how fast they will grow i bought 3 bags of new born and i am buying ones as well because they grow fast you are doing good with stocking up on them wipes they go fast. I bought swings jumpers a crib a pack n play a boppie and bibs and burp clothes and diaper bags nd bottles nd cleaning things to clean babys bottles nd such you can buy any thing right now that stands out to you for a girl little toys that they can feel is a good thing for them to learn how to grasp and light up toys to catch there attentions. Babys like music so its nice to have things that sing as well maybe some of this helped i hope so enjoy your new bundle of joy hope the best for you Quoting Kayley Faith:" "
