anybody else that's finishing off their nb and small size stashes just feel like they don't have enough but know they do?

Yeah. I already have about 40 different NB and small dipes, but keep feeling like I need more. I think it's just all the anticipation of a new baby. (I also feel the need to buy more clothes, hair bows, etc. when I'm sure I have more than enough.)

i'm due 8/20 (or 21, the u/s tech said one and the ob said the other so i dunno!), we're having a boy. so no hair bows here, but i feel like i NEED more dipes and wipes, and sock and clothes lol. it's insane. no clue how many dipes exactly i have...but MORE than enough i'm sure

I've had my newborn and small stash completed for several weeks (and I'm not even 6 months along yet!) Even though I have enough covers, my latest obsession has been buying newborn and small wool covers. Now I really need to stop, but I can't!

We've never Cd a newborn before so I really have no ide ahow many i need. So i jsut keep buying ! LOL So far i have 6 Kissaluv 0's, 6 NB mutts, 1 tiney hiney, 1 NB sugar plum baby, nb covers (3) sm covers (2) happy hineys small (2) 2 OS mutts, a small WAHM AIO, a small FB, a wool NB stacinator cover, an a preeemie pr longies and a NB/sm pair longies. Plus a bunch of prefild in preemie/sizes (well they look a lot smaller than my other ones so i'm guessing they are preemie) Plus a have 3 more diaper son teh way. I really want to get a special diaper (liek an emrbroidered or a FCB but not sure what to get.)Any thoughts ??
We won't be usign teh prefolds much as DH deosnt' liek tehm and he diapers just as much as I do.

I'm buying for twins! I've also never CD'ed a newborn before, so I'm really worried about not having enough. I feel like I have a ton of diapers already, but I still think I need more Kissaluv 0's and I still don't have any FBs. I think I'm getting there on the basics but I'd like some wool covers. Since they're twins I'm expecting them to be small, so I'm buying almost all the newborn/littlest sizes -- I haven't even really started on smalls yet!

And they already have more clothes than they'll probably be able to wear, and I'm not due for another 3 months!

I feel that way.

I thought I was finished, but then some mammas here had some dipes/covers I wanted to try, so I got a few more things. There's some additional dipes/covers I want to try, but I'm forcing myself to NOT get them right now since there's some other baby stuff we need to get that's more important. I know I have enought, but there are just too many cute things out there!

For some reason I keep suggesting that people buy more covers, LOL. I think especially if you're bfing it would be necessary. I think I'm going to stop for now (except for covers) unless something really calls to me. We'll see how much we use when they get here, and if we need more I'll get more.
