Just out of mere curiosity, how many of you live in Canada? I feel like there are a lot of Canadians on this website as well on others too. I'd love to visit Canada one day
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Sleep issues although last night was better! BH
What are you doing to prepare for baby? figured out the Joovy stroller and got the parts we were missing. also washing more of DS's stuff like swaddlers, socks, and bibs
GTKY: What are you up to this weekend? Prenatal massage!!! Thank you's from our diaper shower, Costco trip, zoo for H and DS and maybe me
DS 9/2/13 was a BFP from an IUI! Triplets due 6/29/16 also from an IUI!
@MamaNicoleof3 I'm not sure if Winnipeg would be the Canadian destination of choice, but you're welcome up here any time!
@crdo and @mrsschmity come early and we'll have pancakes with real maple syrup for breakfast. And we won't forget the Beavertails for an afternoon snack! haha
@CourtJack Yay! I'm excited that you're excited too! I am near the airport so both hospitals were pretty equidistant for me. My SIL just delivered at the Civic last May and had a great experience so I chose to go there. I'm high risk now too so I'm followed by an OB there (hopefully if I make it to 36 weeks I can go back to my original OB) and I'm happy because they also have a good NICU, just in case. What part of town are you in? I'm off work so if you're not working I'd be up for meeting for a coffee sometime. I'm always looking for a daily activity! lol. Thanks again for the KK tip, I might just check them out this weekend!
Fun! I'll PM you I'm working right until June, so my coffee times are limited, but I would love to plan one at some point. (I'm in Barrhaven).

I'm like 3 hours from Winnipeg! I want a Canada trip.
I'm a thousand miles away, but I wanna come play! Wah.
We should all play the lottery and then buy a private jet to fly us around to each other.
For all of our sakes, I hope we win the US lottery. Our dollar sucks. Although that is a good thing for you guys coming up here. Your dollar is worth $1.32 up here right now!

Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Rant: I'm starving because I stayed home from work and am too lazy to make myself something to eat. Every time I cough the RLP hurts way worse too, so that's making me crabby. Rave: The weather is really nice outside, it seems like spring is officially here. Symptoms: same old same old. getting bigger and crabbier by the day.
What are you doing to prepare for baby? Resting and trying to get over this pneumonia
GTKY: What are you up to this weekend? I'm hoping DH will bring up the crib and dresser boxes from the basement where we've been storing everything we've bought and either he or I can start putting it together. I'm getting really anxious to get the nursery together!
@mkemommy : Well, compared to Home Depot, I think they have a better selection and better promotions. I don't have a lot of experience with carpet buying though. Although I also think Lowes has better customer service when it comes to needing something installed and whatnot too.

Ugh I'm late to the game because I thought I posted and apparently I did not baby brain!
@arteduc8 I love it! And I agree the double L is best!
@deepaddy24 I'm sorry you got some worrisome news Praying for you and baby!!
I agree on wanting to move to Canada so I can join in on the hang out sessions!!! I'll bring US girl scout cookies!!
How far along are you? 24+6
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Rant: I'm so tired today! Rave: It's Friday and the weather is amazing! Also our pup got groomed today so I'll try to add a pic just because I think he's adorable Symptoms: Heartburn, nighttime urinating, and either starving or not hungry at all so I never know how much food to pack
What are you doing to prepare for baby? Eating...and trying to not murder H because he hasn't given me any names yet
Questions? None
GTKY: What are you up to this weekend? Tomorrow we're having a family day with my parents and siblings! Tonight I'm convincing H to go out for fish and chips then dessert at Whit's (frozen custard place...I don't know if they're everywhere)
@SMLmom Thanks! Today was much better than yesterday, fortunately. Hello weekend!
@chelseay416 Yes, Kallette would be pronounced more like car than california with a "cuh" sound for the Ka. Kallie would be more like California for the nickname though.
@Kballew10 I haven't posted to the name thread yet but plan to. Its been a crazy busy week and I've only really been able to keep up with this thread a couple days this week. So glad I'll have some downtime this weekend though!
@MrsB8214 Thanks so much! As much as I don't want too much feedback on the name we choose, it helps knowing it comes off ok to others since its really a variation of a not as common name. Phew!
@DeePaddy24 I must have missed an update. I hope everything is ok! Sending lots of good thoughts your way!
