I have always waited until the 20 week scan just because that's when they check to make sure baby is growing properly and it seemed more reasonable to me as I didn't need baby stuff hanging around for months before I needed it

We ended up going shopping the following weekend after we found out (roughly around the 6 weeks point and she has just gone over 16 weeks now (I am the father of the baby). We went out with my mother in law and managed to find some things that we really liked. We haven't bought anything since though as we are still finishing work on the house which should be done (hopefully) before the baby is born in Feb.
