Im 29 weeks and got most of the stuff, planning on getting the rest closer to the time x

Im nearly 33 weeks and I have almost everything, the last little bits for collecting breast milk is all I need

I always wait until after 12 weeks, buy a few things in the second trimester and then panic buy in the third. 😂 Also depends if you have family/ friends buying specific gifts for baby or having a baby shower.

I’m 28 weeks and had everything for baby since around 25 weeks, just got my hospital/postpartum stuff. We are at risk of preterm labour so wanted to be early with getting things x

I'll be 30 weeks when I start, we have a couple of things but not much. My partner previously lost twins at 26 weeks so we're waiting to be past that

I started buying stuff when I saw it in sales 🙊

I got a positive test and was straight on 🤣

I started buying about 20 weeks with my first this time I've not started yet and I'm 21 weeks but have most things already as having them close together

We’ve just started buying now and I’m 25 weeks

I suppose i didnt really buy much until quite close to the end - only things i really remember having before were the cots, 3-in-1 rocker things, change table and clothes that family had brought (mainly from charity shops) and 3 mam baby bottles 😅
i didnt want to buy the travel system until i was really really close because i was worried that with all the health problems that i was having (not pregnancy related) the twins werent going to make it or one of them wasnt going to make it and then having to go through the pain and hurt of returning the second items but when we saw a good offer we couldn't pass it up (also both babies came at 34 weeks, soent 3 weeks in NICU and are now they are 14.5 months 🩵💙)
I’m 34 and thinking about trying for a another baby, but I have quite a few worries and concerns, especially about my age and whether it might affect my chances of getting pregnant or having a healthy pregnancy. How was your experience? Do you have any advice or tips to help me feel less anxious about pregnancy at this age? ☺️✨

I am 20 weeks pregnant and I think it’s time for a pregnancy pillow. I am not sure which ones are the best. Any suggestions please ?

Has anyone else ended up with high blood pressure postpartum?
I was borderline a lot during pregnancy and then very normal and sometimes low towards the end. Since she’s been out my blood pressure has been high managed with medication but it seems like I might just have high blood pressure now. I’m trying to manage with food and walking every day, but I think sleep deprivation is the one thing I can’t really change. My doctor has been really good and monitoring how I’m doing etc.
Has anyone else gone through this? How are you handling it?

I’m 17 weeks with my first, and to be honest I’m not really feeling excited or attached yet. Not after the first scan, or hearing the heartbeat. I’m just curious if others are experiencing the same thing. I imagine something will trigger me to feel something, but I don’t know if that will be finding out the gender, feeling it move, or maybe it won’t even be until I meet them. Everyone else around me seems far more excited and enthusiastic right now!
