this is really helpful, thank you!

After knowing the gender then strt shopping bit by bit. Be careful not to buy too much then when baby finally out, end up did not use some stuffs then waste money. Happen to me. Bought a cot fr bb, use only a few times, ended up bb co-sleep with us all the way until she is 2 years old now. For clothes, booties mittens baby hats wise, just get a hands-me-down as kids grow up very very fast. After your bb has outgrown them, u cn always re-bless to other parents.

U can Google online for newborn essentials list as a gauge. Also can take a look at some online reviews by mummies who share what’s good or not and what’s practical or not. I started buying things like strollers, bottles, carriers, etc since 2nd trimester. But diapers, wet wipes and creams have expiry dates or will dry up so I’ll wait till maybe 1 month before EDD.

I’m now 34wks. so far only got stroller+baby seat (gift), baby cot, detergent (to wash baby clothes), few sets of clothes and breastpump. Planning to buy the rest in the coming wks. I may be a bit slow in buying things but i’m trying not to splurge. We started buying baby clothes after we found out the gender.

2nd tri. 3rd tri abit too big and tired to do all these. Also, if suay suay premature like me, you won’t end up totally unprepared for the bb
