I don’t know… something seems wrong about painting bedrooms and buying clothing in advance. It takes away from the excitement when the baby is actually born. It also causes more pain if for some reason or another the baby isn’t healthy. My brother was born on a Thursday night. We got a beautiful shalom zachor together on Friday morning. We bought him nice outfits too, as he was the first boy so there were no hand me downs. If anything, running to buy clothes right after he was born made us even more excited than buying them before the baby could wear it. If we would have bought them before he was born, they wouldn’t have fit him because he was way larger than the doctors expected.
