when should i have the things i need for my baby, and what a

im 6 1/2 months, and all i have so far is clothes, what all do i need and when should i be getting everything??

Are you planning a baby shower???

im 19 weeks, and iv only got vests and stuff we not getting clothes until we find out the sex, then probably around november,december time we will get the other stuff, it depends tho because we might be getting house then!!! hopefully anyway!!! go through a catalouge and you will see pics of stuff such as cots and those baby monitors and anything you hadnt thought of will be there!!!! or even some websites might have lists? xx

I have nothing but under clothes, it's hard finding unisex clothes these days because they can't figure out the sex of my baby, i'm buying a swinger this week though

Quoting June Bugs:“ Are you planning a baby shower???”

i dont think so

Ok then just start with the basics..
Car seat/stroller
Crib/mattress and sheets/bedding (a bassinet if you want one, I bought a pack n play with a bassinet so it's multi-functional and you get a lot more use for a lot less money)
Swing and/or bouncy seat
Baby laundry detergent (Dreft, Baby All, etc.)
Diapers and wipes (at first buy atleast 2 packs each of newborn and size 1)
Bottles, nipples, bottle brush
Bath supplies (tub, baby wash, towels, wash cloths)
Burpcloths/bibs
Blankets (thin and thick)
Baby nail clippers and a thermometer (you will DEFINITELY use them!)
If you are going to breast feed you may also want to look into a breastpump,(hand pump and/or electirc pump) you never know when you might need it (my baby was in NICU and the day I came home from the hospital without her, the power went out and I wasn't able to use the electirc one my ins. paid for me to rent, I was glad I bought a hand pump.)

For you:
Breast pads (you will need these even if you don't breast feed)
2 Nursing bras.. One to wear, one to wash (if you breast feed)
A couple of comfortable sports bras (again, if you breast feed, they are cheaper then "sleep" bras and are basically the same thing)

If I think of anything you can use I'll let you know..

Find the forums for your area.. You can find alot of stuff cheap/free new or gently used.. some stuff isn't worth buying new since you won't use it for that long.

You can always buy a used carseat as long as the manufacture date on the bottom is less then 7 years old.. Most people only use an infant carseat for about a year.. I've seen them on craigslist for about 1/2 the price it would cost new in the store.
