Hi

Hi fatherwannabe,
I would recommend that you go online for a list of items that you will need for your new baby. Many sites offer these useful tips, and you should review lists from a few websites to gauge what items are the absolute necessary and what items are best to have.
Then, visit at least 3 baby fairs and online shops such as Ebay, Amazon, Rakuten, https://72WEAR.com and other maternity wear shops without buying anything, just to compare prices. You will find that you will need certain items sooner than the rest, such as maternity clothes. All moms need to understand that comfortable maternity clothes are really important to not only lift up their current spirits but also to help get them into the mold of a new expectant mother.
After the first trimester passes, you will share the good news with your friends, colleagues and family. At that time you will be ready for the barrage of information and tips that will be shared with you and your wife. Not to mention, you may be fortunate to have handmedowns passed on to you from those who care.
Good luck!
Thanks for sharing. This is helpful for first time daddy like me.

@LeahPenelope : yeap.. that's right.. i will be going..
@Anthony Goh : next week is a big baby fair.. nov & dec there is as well.. but it should be smaller fairs.. u can check out next week's fair..
hi there, baby fairs mostly occurs every month.. perhaps u want to take note of those major baby fairs like in Oct (at Singapore Expo.. u can check out this weekend), if im not wrong, there's another in April(can't rem), or smaller fairs also in the co-current months.. u can start plotting what items u need and check out prices.. nearer to the date then purchase them..Would like to ask, Our EDD is May next year. Are the discounts substantial enough to start buying so early? (Considering a big baby fair happens not often)

well, the next fair is starting from tomorrow at 11am till 9pm at Singapore Expo Hall 5 (if I didnt get the hall no wrongly), Sat is 11am to 9pm, Sun is 11am to 8pm.We went to smaller fairs before and it's usually by just one company and the one we went was like just a market or pasar Malam if u can it.
The items looked old and yellowish and organization was unpleasant to the eye. Left in 5minutes.
That's why wondering how often big fairs come along and whether any good discounts worth getting so early (in case miss the next big fair)
I am thinking when is the next yr event.. Now is too fast to buy baby item for me..well, the next fair is starting from tomorrow at 11am till 9pm at Singapore Expo Hall 5 (if I didnt get the hall no wrongly), Sat is 11am to 9pm, Sun is 11am to 8pm.
if u would want next year schedule, my fb actually prompts me of the events coming up. hope this helps
maybe u can just write down what u have in mind to buy, next year schedule not out yet..I am thinking when is the next yr event.. Now is too fast to buy baby item for me..
