@Schell2013, I just read your post. So heartbreaking and I'm so sorry you had to experience that.
I hope everyone is having a nice fun relaxing weekend.
We're at a farm stay airbnb 45 mins from the city and its so surreal. There's peacocks that hang out by the kitchen window 24/7 and alpacas off our deck... Last night we fed the animals with the farmer, and there was a goat named Elvis who thinks he's a dog. Also a mini horse, donkey, tons of chickens and deer.
@lmno304 you are so strong. I am so sorry for the loss of your little girl. Congrats on the birth your son- I am praying for strength for him as he stays in the nicu, but he sounds like quite a fighter! prayers for you as well during this time.
@lmno304 you and your family are in my thoughts. I can't imagine how devastating losing your little girl is. I am glad to hear your son is fighting hard in the NICU. Sending you lots of mama strength!
I need some dark newborn legging/jeans.... The ones that kind of look like jeans but have the feel of leggings. I found a top I like for the going home outfit but need pants to go with it. If y'all see anything like that, will you give me a head's up?
eta- I need more NB outfits so I'm willing to buy a set
I saw some at kohls on clearance tonight @bnsmith85. Eta- they were on the jumping beans table, but the section was a mess and they were girls', so I didn't check to see if they were in the right place.
Nothing like our fire alarms going off and waking us up. No fire thankfully. Google seems to say that we need to replace them as they tend to malfunction after 10 years. Ugh now I'm awake.
@mizzkbrat mine did that twice last year. the co2 ones. I ended up in my car at like 4am chatting w the cops. for 2 hours while they searched he house.
@bnsmith85 I have been cleaning out my closet and found those type of stretch jegging leggings in adult size unworn. Haha! Totally thought you were talking about for you. Let me know if you want to be twinsies with your LO! Lol
@ashleyp625@mrszoess@NoraAurora thanks ladies! I'll be checking those out today! And Nora, I feel like an idiot bc I swear I looked on the Carter's website. I'm clearly a terrible online shopper.
@mrszoess I didn't expect anything. I usually just post in my weekly ticker change and the infertility board because I find them more manageable and easier to keep up with. I wasn't going to post here at all until someone encouraged me to.
@kennelchick i was making an observation that your name was unfamiliar on the board. I personally haven't seen you around but I also like to think people don't come here and randomly post about their babies if they haven't been here before so i was assuming you'd been on a ticker that I don't read because it isn't my day.
@bnsmith85 thank you! She's doing so well. I ugly cry the whole way home after spending the day with her, I hate leaving her. I keep telling myself it's only for a few weeks.
Yea just in terms of a couple people who didn't even go here haha, I'm confused why they would want to post their whole birth story or anything personal really. I dunno but makes me excited for the rest of us to post ours (not too) soon!
I get why a person might lurk until they have their baby, post in the announcement thread, then start participating (because parenting is a lot of work and the more support the better). I don't get why a person would post for the first time on the announcement thread and then never post again. What's the point? I'm not trying to be snarky. I really just don't know what a person would get out of that. Is it the validation of the love its? Or maybe they're just busy with a baby in NICU and they'll start participating later.

Or this piece alone:
All in NB. I honestly do not shop anywhere else for baby clothes.
