When Should I Start Accepting Baby Things????? Posted: 12-16-04 15:39pm
I'm 12 weeks now and people all keep
telling me they have stuff for me. I'm
going for my 13 week u/s on tuesday to
make sure all is ok as I go into my 2nd
trimester. Should I tell people it's ok
to start giving me stuff after that
appt????

I would say yes, as long as you have some
place to store all that stuff until the
baby's born. Yesterday my doc said that
since i'm past the 12 weeks and he heard a
strong heartbeat that we're good to go
now.

I was going .N.U.T.S. When I was about
13/20wks. I wanted everything. But I
really waited to buy until I knew for sure
what iwas having. But even then, I was
still in a slump. I have just received
over 100.00 worth of clothes from my mom.
Everything from sleepers, onesies to
cotton pants and booties and hats. I am
all set with those. Just a few outfits to
go out in and im good.
Got my travelsystem at the beginning of
the month and my crib about 2.5 months
before that and the crib set a month ago.
Im waiting for baby!! 34 days!!!

Youre lucky, I feel like im not going to
have anything for this baby. I gave
everything away b cuz I thought I was done
with having kids. I never had a baby
shower with either of mine and I dont want
to have one this time b cuz for some
reason I feel very uncomfortable being
around so many people!!!! Hopefully
family will come thru.

I was in the same boat. I had nothing
because like you, I gave my other stuff
away and sold my other crib. I had
.N.O.T.H.I.N.G and my mom has really done
a lot. My boyfriend is the 'i will help
when hes here.But not before' kind of
person. He didnt help much with our first
either. Its men for you. Everything I
have, mymom bought or I did. His wallet
hasnt gone flat like my moms and mine has.
Oh well. I guess its something to get
use to.

I know which bedding I want too. I saw a
denim set yesterday light and dark denim
with stars--it's so cute and neutral.
