I feel now is still VERY early to buy any thing for the baby as in still have 6 more mths to go.

Baby fair is just like IT show, every 3mths will have one.

Buy only when the baby is 1-2mths about to due.
You mean buy all the necessities 1-2 months before due date? Will it be rush? Sorry first time mom here and I really don't know where to start from what to buy and where..

I am FTM too, but i worry what if "touch wood" if anything happens how?

Still got a long way to go, is there really a need to get all those 6mths in advance?
 
I am turning 13 weeks in 2 days time.

Usually, 3mth is the time where people break out the good news to friends and relatives. Still got a long long 6mths to go. No one will know whats going to happens next.

My plan is to purchase it when I am about to due. After delivery, i can always ask my hubby go buy those milk bottles, as for clothing, surely relatives, in laws will buy for the baby. The baby is going to be in the hospital for a week before going home. So still got time.

Folic acid: I read from somewhere better not to overdose on folic acid cos it has been scientificcally linked to austism. Min is 800mcg per day and do not exceed too much from it like 10mg is really too much. The foods we eat everyday also gives us sufficient nutrients.

Gynae prescribe those prenatal viatamins also have folic acid which contains 800mcg.. I think the maximum consumption is 10mg..
