I didn't buy anything until 35 weeks. But I had this totally irrational fear of something going wrong. I'm quite an anxious person at the best of times and pregnancy made me worse! But even buying stuff at 35 weeks made me anxious!

I bought the pram and some little clothes - as the midwives told me to have my bag packed and ready by 30 weeks and to include some clothes for bubby.

Everything else I got when she came along. And we only bought the cot a few weeks ago too!

I just didn't want to be landed with a load of stuff that we didn't need. I watched too many friends around me "kit out" their nurseries and then regret it because they wasted loads of cash.
