Nesting, or Please tell me I'm not crazy

So, it's been a little over a week since AF interrupted the newly found baby thoughts that I had been having. That day I went shopping to make myself feel better (well I really needed some stuff), and made a point to avoid the baby section for fear that I would break down in tears in the middle of Kohls.

I made it through that day, but ever since I have had an almost irrepressible urge to actually walk through baby departments and buy stuff. I saw a onesie in a catalog that said "I Want a Pony" (I have horses, so doubly funny to me) and it was oh so difficult to make my hand set down the Credit Card. I find myself sneaking peaks at the baby section of the Target website and Babies R Us, oooh and aaahhhing over all sorts of things.

I've managed to not buy anything (yet), but is anyone else guilty of this? I feel a little insane when I give in to the urge to do my little walk bys just to see what they've got even when I know it'll be at least a few months before we start TTC. Someone tell me I'm not crazy please.

You are definitely not crazy!  I've pretty much avoided baby sections, other than buying gifts for other people, just b/c it makes me sad and want to have a baby to buy stuff for.  But it's definitely understandable to be drawn to that stuff while waiting to TTC.  It's just bf acting up. :P  ((HUGS))  It's hard, and most of us have been there.

No you're not crazy, baby stuff is really cute and they have such cool stuff out now. I mean if you were to go out any buy a complete nursery that might be a bit crazy, but if you find something that is REALLY cute and perfect, like that onesie, I don't think there is any shame in buying it, especially since its probably less than $10. Plus, it might not be around when you actually need to buy it. I remember going through the Target baby section and thinking wow, that is such a cute stroller, bedding set, etc. I'm going to get that one when the time comes. Now that the time is here, I kind of wish I had bought it then because now I am having a really hard time finding anything I like.

I agree your not crazy! Its BF @ its best! Im with Kathy here, I don't go to baby sections either because it just causes me hurt and heartache over wanting a baby so badly. But I do think of it ALL the time, what I want this or that to look like when baby is here, AND I am guilty of buying  alil snow-suit that was camo one time that was on clearence for $15. So They are right, we've all been there!

I totally agree with all the previous ladies.  I used to surf websites picking out things I liked.  I even had a favorites folder for baby stuff :)  I think it just means you will be a great mom some day!
