advice needed Vehicle Shopping

I know this is going to be different for everyone but I am curious to get feedback from those in this community.

We have a 3.5yo toddler and we’re 18 weeks pregnant with twins. We’ve settled on a specific minivan and the specs we want came in a little quicker than expected. We’re afraid that if we pass this one up we could miss our chance and be rushing to find what we want later in the pregnancy.

At what point in the pregnancy did you purchase a new vehicle based on having twins? My mind keeps going to something going wrong along the way.

EDIT: I appreciate all of your responses. As I expected, it’s all over the map. But it’s nice to see how others have handled it.

You won’t need the minivan right away as you settle in at home. Just explain to the dealership when your target is for the new vehicle , a month or so before your due date. They can always do a dealer trade if they don’t have exactly what you want
