IUI#2 Femara/Ovidrel (cd 5-9) = BFN
IUI#3 Femara/Ovidrel (cd 3-7) = BFP!

beta #2 11/28 = 2055

we went with sposies for about 4 weeks, since the hospital sent us home with some, and some from the baby shower. plus i had a c section, and my hubby was doing most of the changing for a few weeks. and he didn't really know how to do the cloth yet.</p
We bought some sposies for the hospital for the reasons you mentioned, but I was too impatient and used some fitted kissas and lil joeys in the hospital. The meconium came out first try-no stain. Since then, the normal, yellow, BF poop has caused numer
We used sposies for DD's first 2 weeks. We used about 10-12 a day.
I liked having the disposables around when getting up to move any type of laundry would have been asking a lot. haha.... Best wishes!
