I started at around 14 weeks. Buying gender neutral stuff amd diapers and wipes.  If you can can buy one package of wipes and a package of diapers every week it will help bc you always need them. But in the chance something happened. You can always return them. But hopefully that wouldn't be the case. I recommend stocking up esspecially on wipes. You will still be using them when they are 6 yeaes old

My vote is start whenever you want to. :) Waiting for thr baby shower doesnt mean anything in my opinion.  I will tell you I got literally nothing I registered for which is fine I got things and returned then for stuff I did need. We bought some outfits right off the bat that would be gender neutral

I dont think anyone should wait until after their baby shower to start buying stuff. For all you know your baby could come early or youbdont get what you thought you would and now you have to spend a crap ton of money all at once instead of it being spread out over time. I started buying diapers and wipes at about 14 weeks bc my husband got a promotion lol and you can never have enough. Other things lile clothes and stuff i waited till i found out what i was having except under shirts like the white onsies and other things such as little toys and other things

It's too early to shop right now!  I recommend if you're having a baby shower, wait till afterwards before you go shopping for big stuff.

You might wanna wait until you get to your second trimester or until you know the sex but if you wanna start now go ahead :)
