I want to start by saying--we are just finishing up our homestudy and have sent the our "stuff" to a few different agencies. We are not matched yet, but are obviously looking at all the baby gear we will need and want. So do I buy it all now, or should I wait until we actually have a match or a baby. For example, I picked our an adorable pink stroller the other day--a baby boy won't like that too much. I also picked out a very neutral one. Should we buy it now?

My husband and I had initially agreed to take almost nothing with us when we went to the hospital to pick up baby. We were going to buy everything--well almost everything when we knew what gender the baby was. Our thoughts had been that if something happens, and we don't come home with a baby, we wouldn't have to bring all that stuff back home and have me sit and cry and look at it. But, because we are very much impulse buyers, we are not afraid that once we are there, and know whether it is a boy or girl--we will go crazy and just buy, buy, buy!

So I am asking for all your opinions. What did you do?

I can't believe how things have changed since we had our bson 5 years ago! So much cool stuff!

Thanks so much in advance!
