Around 2nd trimester, as u have more energy to move around n see the items especially baby cot or stroller. Further down, you may get too big n heavy to move about.

buy unisex item but control yourself because u never know if anyone will buy for u as a form of gift. babies grown up very fast so ensure u never over spent

I've started stocking up now and then when there are sales. Can buy the consumables first, but avoid electronics as they usually have warranty period

Better if you start once you entered into ur 3rd trimester, untill you can cart out and do a research on it , which one best fit for ur lil one

I also at week 17 and I started to choose and order online as sale coming. Coz I know gender already from the test report.

I will buy the baby clothes for hospital bag only the rest I buy after baby is delivered 😄 I can save more 🤑

I started scouting for baby stuff when I was 5-6 months pregnant and purchased them when I was 7-8 months pregnant

good to start looking around, be it looking for big ticket items, or asking for hand me downs if applicable.
