Personally I don't ever think its too early. I'm so excited about shopping that I think I might even go grab a few things and I'm only 6 weeks lol. Just make sure you don't buy everything pink or everything blue.

Not too early. Buy things now and along the way so it isn't such a huge expense at once.
