I can sympathize. DH & I keep hearing the same thing from our families. We bought our crib, dresser, glider, car seat, bedding set & monitor. We also bought a ton of clothing for her. My BIL has been especially vocal about how we didn't leave anything for anyone else. Like you, I didn't want to wait until the last minute & see what people were going to get for us. I wanted to make sure we had the essentials before she gets here. Plus some of that stuff was expensive. I didn't want to put that "burden" on our families.
My thoughts exactly!
