I thought the same thing, the day after I found out I was pregnant I went ahead and found tons of second hand good quality stuff because I was worried about funds and stress myself, but dont forgot you dont wanna buy too much stuff before your baby shower, iv made a labled list of all essesntial baby items from bath to feeding to sleeping etc. Im waiting till my baby shower to check off what I get and find what im misising after.(although I probly wil start buying a few things when i find out the gender) but if you want to get a head start bulk up on diapers.

I got all my big stuff before I knew the gender. (Crib,playyard,travel system,) I even went with a neutral bedding set. Not sure about where you live but here its hard to find neutral clothes. I also bought a few bottles. I haven't bought Anything since knowing the gender due to the fact that I'm have two baby showers and one is next month. But it depends on if you want all grip stuff or all boy stuffwhen you find out. I am having more then one child so I got the big stuff in neutral.
