Q: Is it safe to start buying little things?

Im 9 weeks pregnant, had 3 ultrasounds, at 5w4d, 7w1d and 8w3d.. the last 2 we saw a strong heartbeat.

I really would like to buy small items like socks etc. But scared i may jinx the pregnancy, although me being pregnant is no longer a secret as my boss has a big mouth.

Theres also sales on right now, so able to get steriliser half price too..

thanks

Go for it mama. I'm just abt 9 weeks and ive bought 6pairs of socks, 10 onsies, a hat, wash clothsand a bib lol. This is my 3rd baby and I did the same for my other 2 pregnancies too. Lol. I say go for it. I go and look at the clothing on a daily basis and visualise my baby wearing them.

I wont buy a single thing until around 18 weeks as i just lost my bubby at 14 weeks after 3 previous scans showed healthy bouncing baby. HOWEVER I would never wish this feeling on anyone and would much prefer to see you enjoying your pregnancy like most women! yes keep the receipts just so you know you can exchange or refund if need be. Im now just under 7 weeks and can tell you from previous pregnancies if it were not for my recent loss I would already be happily shopping!! Instead i have just saved pics from online shopping sites lol

I am just waiting until I know the gender, otherwise I would have all my shopping done the day I found out at 5 weeks lol

I am almost 13 weeks right now, the wait is killing me x_x
We have already gotten a cute gender nuetral outfit though and two packs of diapers.
I already have my stroller picked out and we have a high chair and swing too.

Socks sound like a good idea to buy!! I am going out today and getting some lol

I didn't buy anything until after 13 weeks, but it's up to you. I agree though, save the receipts!
