1st time....mom

Im Pregnant. I Havent Done Any Shopping. Its My 5Th Month. I Am LooKing For Help. For Big Purchases Like Nursery Furniture, Travel System Etc. Any Mom Here From Usa Willing To Help With Good Brand Names Plzzzz

Re: 1st time…mom

I haven’t done any either. Carter’s has good baby clothing and accessories, macys you can use coupons and get good deals for clothes, baby gap is good but very expensive and try TJ maxx or marshalls (might have baby items at good prices).

For cribs I am looking at various stores like babies r us, ikea, target. Buy buy baby has a lot of good things but it’s overpriced. Check it out if you want.
I’m still looking into the travel system, but my friend is suggesting britax agile.
Crib bedding is just over priced everywhere, but check out the stores I have mentioned for that like buy buy baby, babies r us.

I am also going to check out Burlington coat factory they have marked down items from other stores.

Re: 1st time…mom

Thank you. I will look into it.

Hi Zennia,

Im from Canada but the stores in the US are pretty much the same, with better deals and more inventory! Check out Carters, OshKosh, Baby Gap and Old Navy… and look out for free delivery and discount coupons. You could also save the big ticketed items for boxing day sales!

For crib bedding, I’ve noticed that Target is the most reasonable. Check out HomeSense, they have some crib bedding sometimes as well. Do you know the gender or opting for a surprise? If you’re looking into doing up the nursery with a little higher budget, Etsy has awesome bedding as well as Nursery Decor. You can get pretty much anything and everything customized and delivered to your doorstep.

Thank you, I don’t know the gender. It’s surprise. I will look into the store u ve mentioned. Old navy is jus a clothing store. Isn’t. I like their clothes. But I don’t see infants clothes there. I guess I never bn to that department.

Re: 1st time…mom

Not sure whether they have an infant dept in the stores there but the website definitely has one, check it out…You can always order stuff (on free delivery) and if you dont like the quality or design when it reaches you, you can always go and return it in the store.
