H's birthday is a week away and I would like to get a smallish present for him that represents him going to be a dad in 8 months. Or do you think it is still too early to even do something like that? I know I face a tough next 7 weeks, but we are really excited. If you don't think it's too early to buy a baby-related gift, what is your suggestion?
Re: Need an Idea
God forbid, something were to happen & this pregnancy doesn't work out, that gift would turn painful pretty quick.
I think you're right. The more I think about it, the more I think I should wait. And you're right...father's day will be a lot more appropriate.
I second this. But I am probably not the best person to chime in on this.....
I can tell you from first hand experience that even little reminders, like prenatal vitamins, or appointment cards from the OB/GYN were gut wrenching to see when things went bad.
Chances are in your favor that everything will be a-ok, but if it were me I would wait until Father's day, like Jen said.
Baby Macy is here!

I agree, but if you think he would like it, then do it. I think it would be fine.
Ha, no offense taken
Initially I wasn't going to respond, because I didn't want to be a Debbie downer and take away from Janelle's excitement that she absolutely deserves to have. I remember how magical my pregnancy with Macy was, I am hope nothing other than that for her
But I thought I would offer my point of view, because I am surprised at the things to do trigger a sad response.

Is his birthday before or after your ultrasound? You could always get a small pic frame for the ultrasound picture and then get him something else not baby related.

I love this frame. Sorry I couldn't make it clicky.
Or, this is something small you could get

Those are both really great ideas, definitely bookmarking them. Does that frame actually say "sneak peek" on it or is that just for the Amazon picture? I LOVE the Gators onesie, but unfortunately my H is not a Gator, but a Bull. Not to say 99.9% of future children's clothing that is sports-related won't be Gator gear.
