Preparing for baby When did you buy the big items? First of all, congrats I bought my pram for DS when I was about 6mths gone At least they did for me I had bought the pram in the July and he was born in November They were repaired free of charge under warranty because they realise that we buy the pram early and then it sits about the house unused for a few months.
I had to take the receipt and Ds's birth certificate when I took the pram into the store for repair Have fun in the sales Good luck and be well Jennifer. Jennifer u are rite about mothercare my friend works there and my other friend is assistant manager and they are very good for repairing things and spare parts. But they are expensive kiddicare is good and for clothes go to next better quality and value for money even my friend doesnt buy her kids clothes from where she works.
I had Los nursery set up by 20 weeks lol. I've been buying things as they come on offer or as I see them! I was also very excited once over the shock! Whatever will be will be Hun, and if anything was to happen it wouldn't be effected by weather or not you'd bought anything i do understand the feeling of jinxing it.
Starting to buy my baby's bits helped me to calm down and enjoy my pregnancy so if you feel ready then go for it. For the big expensive stuff I would suggest to try to wait as much as you can: the guarantee period will then last longer. With my first the pram and baby monitor broke and we almost missed the guarantee window bc I bought them way too early week 20 I think.
The pram was the uppababy and we had the travel bag which is like a 2-year insurance -- it broke during a trip and we got the parts replaced for free. We have been trying for 5 months to get pregnant. I am pretty sure I am now but I started 5 months ago. When we decided to try to get pregnant. If you can't or dont well then you can pass it down to a friend or sister or etc or sell it.
But i know at least from me not waiting i dont have to stress about buying the big things. I dont have a crib yet but i do have a bassinet. Crib is to big to have laying around right now. Be careful as sounds like you are going to end up with lots of stuff if you're buying things before you even know you're pregnant for sure. Thank you!

My only regret now is that I didn't buy a secondhand pram to begin with and save myself all that money and heartache. After her daughter was born, she developed vestibular neuritis [acute vertigo and dizziness] and couldn't drive for three months.
The only remedy suggested by my doctor was walking, so I went out every day with my Bugaboo and my baby and it was like a walking frame - it kept me stable and helped me recover. It made dropoff and pickup easier — sometimes the baby would sleep through the whole thing," she says. Here's the thing: you can't possibly know what your experience of parenthood is going to be until you're in the thick of it.
You won't know if you're going to end up with a velcro baby who wants to be close to you every second of the day in which case babywearing will save your sanity and free up your hands , or a more independent spirit who likes their own personal space.
You could even end up with a non-sleeping terror who only naps in the pram and has to be pushed around the neighbourhood for hours on end. In some ways you'd be better off waiting a couple of months to buy a pram once you know what your needs are.
But we know how exciting a purchase it is and we wouldn't want to deny you the milestone of bringing home the pram for the first time.
