by 15 weeks, we had the bed linen we wanted for bub (layby'd at 6 weeks cos we loved it), had started on cloth nappy stash, had some gender neutral clothes, some bathroom linen, and had layby'd all the "big ticket" bedroom stuff.

it's never too early to be organised - esp if you have specific items you want (our cot and things had to be ordered in - took 12 weeks to arrive)

plus it's fun to shop!
