@ACleanLife Ah, gotcha! I may join the Feb board too since I'm due the 3rd, and with my first pregnancy I went at 38 weeks. Maybe this one will actually make it til 40 though!
You never know...my first was 15 days early, my second was 3 days over
DS1 - 9/21/11
DS2 - 7/4/14
DS3 - 2/21/16 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our family of 5 is complete!! Love our boys!
What's new with baby (size, development): Appleseed
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: I've sorted all of dd's itty bitty clothes, stored in clear bins by age.
Rant/rave/symptoms: I feel SO nauseated ALL the time. Last night I was up multiple times with stomach aches - thought I'd have diarrhea but nope. I feel like I'm being a crappy wife/mom right now because the house is a disaster and I am so lazy and tired. So much extra screen time for the toddler right now I'm hoping it will pass soon, I didn't have this with my first pregnancy!
Questions for the Group:
GTKY: What is your must have one baby item you want? (Doesn't have to be practical) Peg Perego infant seat; probably 4 more woven wraps and 1-2 more ring slings
What's new with baby (size, development): trucking along, we had our confirmation appt tuesday with the nurse and everything is good so far.
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Not too much right now. We did tell our parents and grandparents yesterday!
Rant/rave/symptoms: this nausea is no joke. No vomiting yet, but the increased consistency in waves of nausea. I work night shift and I tend to feel the worst when waking up for work around 3pm.
Questions for the Group: Any other night shifters out there?!
GTKY: What is your must have one baby item you want? (Doesn't have to be practical) I cannot wait to get the baby holder that hold them on your chest. I love the though of baby being so close but still being able to function.
What's new with baby (size, development): poppyseed
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Trying to watch what a eat, thinking of names!
Rant/rave/symptoms: Nausea, extremely tired, headaches, I forget how crazy stressful the first few weeks are, every cramp, every odd feeling, every wipe(tmi)
Questions for the Group:
GTKY: What is your must have one baby item you want? (Doesn't have to be practical) I really want a new diaper bag. This is my 3rd and my last diaper bag went caput a few months ago (but lasted me almost 4 years) hoping to get a new one!
Not sure how to reply, so I'll quote!
I'm 4w3d too and I wanted to say "amen sister" on the stressful part esp. Cramps, weird feelings spotting, etc. It's my first pregnancy so everytime I see anything, I get so scared :-(
What's new with baby: still a teeny little poppyseed!
What's something new you're doing to get ready: just told the prospective Grandparents to be!! Anxiously awaiting my appt Monday and very much appreciating my husbands extra help and attention.
Rant/rave/symptoms: I had a 6 hr car ride today and felt a flutter of nausea. Hoping tomorrow's trip back will be ok. I am feeling crampy and bloated (I kinda have a belly right now) and feel scared every time I see spotting :-( I feel hungry/snacky a lot, but nothing really sounds good. Mood is all over, I cry very easily, but I find if I look up funny stuff, I laugh extra easy too!
Questions for the group: ok girls. Help me feel better. Who had mild spotting during the first few weeks and had an otherwise uneventful pregnancy? I'm having the sads right now.
GTKY: hmmm....I'd say maybe super cute cloth diapers...NO! A new washer/dryer to wash them in ;-)
