  • @seipel: my DH had horrible anxiety over the cost of everything. We still registered for pricier items (the swing we liked was $180). We figured we could just get a cheaper one if no one bought it. Basically all of our really big items were bought for us. For my shower I got the stroller frame for the car seat, the car seat plus one extra base, our regular stroller, the swing and the high chair. These items ranged from $80-$350. DH was shocked at how generous people were. We have literally bought almost nothing for Caleb since he came home. I bought diapers while pregnant and I have several cases stored in the basement still, in multiple sizes. Breastfeeding has obviously helped too. I fed formula about 5 times in the first few weeks, but not at all since. Oh, and my insurance covered the $300 breast pump in full!! I rarely use it though because I prefer the $40 manual pump, lol. The biggest expense was the furniture because we went all out and got it at pottery barn kids, but we didn't get a ton of pieces. Just the crib, extra long dresser with changing table top and a bookcase. I also did a ton of shopping at the Carter's outlet when pregnant, so this baby is outfitted for his first year! I loooove the one piece outfits without feet!

    Mommies:

    How old are your LOs? 8 weeks tomorrow!

    How do you feel? Sad that I have a date to go back to work. May 5th it is. :-(

    Any Milestones this week? Lots of smiling, cooing.

    Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Still having breastfeeding issues due to Caleb's latch. Fortunately, he transfers milk just fine and is gaining weight well, but I'm pretty beat up and very sore. He started craniosacral therapy yesterday to see if that helps. I haven't cried during his latch since the session so that is good. I have invested so much time and energy into breastfeeding him that going back to work saddens me so much more. I feel like we will finally have a good thing going and I will have to leave him. I should have enough milk to pump and him to have breast milk while I am there.

    Love this little guy so much!



  • Pregnant Girls:

    How many weeks: 31w3d

    How are you feeling? Not good. I'm so sore everywhere and really tired since I don't sleep anymore because I'm so sore.

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I'll add one later when I actually get up.

  • Pregnant Girls:

    How many weeks:  22 weeks

    How are you feeling?  Strange.  It's the only way to describe it.  Everything feels ok, but I just feel odd.  I feel borderline like I did when I was morning sick.  Small things, like walking up the steps at work take a lot out of me.  I can barely make it through the school day.  I went to bed at 11 on Sunday and couldn't get out of bed Monday morning.

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics?  I'm not understanding that I can't do as much as I used to.  After work I still plan to do 5 things, like I used to, and then when H comes home from work I'm upset because I couldn't get anything, or maybe 1 thing, done.  At dinner tonight he tried to explain to me that I need to slow down.  I wouldn't listen to it.
  • Pregnant Girls:

    How many weeks: 36 weeks tomorrow

    How are you feeling? Tired and grumpy. But, not too bad physically. I am going for chiropractic adjustments 2-3 times a week and think they are really helping with my back and hip pain.

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I  had my first unsolicited belly touch on Sunday at church. Also, yesterday at the grocery store the male cashier really creepily asked me if I was smuggling a beach ball out of the store...I didn't know what to say, so I just kind of looked at him and said "nope, just a baby"  :-/

  • Jill you should have deadpanned and said "Yes" without breaking eye contact.  THEN we'll see who is uncomfortable!!

  • @WillyH19 - come to PA where it's illegal to touch a pregnant belly without permission!

    But that would have involved making eye contact in the first place, and he made me uncomfortable before asking me that. I have social anxiety...

    Haha, true. But, I try to reserve my WTF's for non-pregnancy related things. I try to be sensitive to the ladies struggling with 3T or TTGP.  I don't want to AW my pregnancy on all of my posts. (I'm NOT saying anyone else does this!)
