I suppose you can say third trimester is when everything needs to be in place and start planning/packing labour bag and baby bag. 11 weeks doesn't sound too much longer. Though there are times it felt like forever! But we're getting there. First time mommy and daddy and so, so far away from our families, but we're getting there =) We're absorbing information and advice (solicited only but also keeping an eye on unsolicited ones) like a sponge now. Not much longer to go!

hehehhe...
these are just my experiences ( not unsolicited advice I hope) :p

1)those mittens and booties are quite important, babies scratches their own faces a lot- buy those now!
2) baby carrier can be bought later, we started to use ours when baby was 3 months
3)nipple cream - HARUS!
4)Mommy's hospital bag- better to be packed and ready as early as on the 7th month...

its very exciting isnt it? all the best to you! hugs***
