Hi Debbie

I did exactly the same thing. We went out and decided exactly what it was that we wanted. Then when the sales came we put the things on layby. Baby Target used to have a six months layby which was excellent. We ended up getting most of our things for a third to half off.

I was a little worried when after almost 2 years we hadnt conceived - but you know my story - blah blah blah.....

I am so happy we planned in advance being so sick and having had so much time off work I have had to take heaps of leave without pay and may even leave work earlier than expected.

I am a little more at ease knowing that all the major items have been purchased such as cots, prams etc.

So I dont think its odd that you are already collecting baby things. I think its great!!!

Best of luck with TTC - sending lots of sticky baby dust your way

Love Jen
