Be careful with the clothing and diapers and don't go too crazy... babies outgrow things quickly. As far as shopping in general, your chances of a miscarriage decrease dramatically after the first trimester, so probably around month 4 is your best time. You're still "comfortably pregnant," so you can be up on your feet longer and won't get tired as quickly as you will as your pregnancy progresses.

As soon as you want. Just keep in mind if you have baby stuff everywhere and you haven't told people and you have them over to your place they may figure it out.
Starting early is a great way to take advantage of deals, however once you tell your relatives you will be surprised how much you will get for free. Even furniture and whatnot, but if you have a lot of spare cash and would want to buy your own anyway GO NUTS! On the clothing front you will probably be better off buying sizes 9 months and up because you will get lots of newborn - 6 month clothes.
The only thing it is best to wait on is Maternity clothes because it is hard to know what size you will be.
Congrats!

Whenever you feel the time is right! I am 17wks pregnant - starting buying things at about 13wks... even then some people told me i should not be buying yet! BUT i ignored them because it felt right to me! There is nothing i love more than to stroll through shops picking up things for this beautiful baby inside me. My fiance and i have a collection of baby stuff and i love to sit in the nursery and look at everything - makes me feel very connected to my baby.
Good luck and have fun shopping!

Whenever you feel it is right to buy is the perfect time to start buying. My mom waited until about the 4th month. That's when she started to get her energy back. Just be careful when you decided on what color of things to buy. You don't want to put a little boy in a pink dress now do you?! LOL. Good luck and have fun buying!!

i began paying for some stuff early, yet no longer any of the enormous stuff or something costly or gender based. you need to start getting bottles in case you will use them, and blankets and onesies and stuff nevertheless. something you will get now, you will no longer would desire to pay for later. it relatively is relatively stressful to purchase plenty stuff out of in easy terms some paychecks in direction of the tip. some human beings think of it relatively is undesirable success or would reason some thing undesirable to happen to the toddler, yet i think of what's meant to be will happen the two way. stable success!!
