Klein I bought my CB digi's off eBay. A lot cheaper than in the shops.

They aren't as sensitive as the ICs though so don't do them too early

Klein, no symptoms for me, but this'll be the first place I come when I get them! I love remodeling even thought it's a big dust fest. So far we've redone our hideous pink tiled bathroom, and our old kitchen. I love them now. And after my D&C I painted the "would-be" babies room a nice light blue, fit for a boy or a girl.
And lol about your skimpy workout gear! I'm sure those handymen would love to see you in it!

Does everyone have a space designated for baby yet?

I still haven't used my last HPT, I may do it tomorrow to celebrate my 5 wks, I'm sure the line will be nice and dark

Dahlia - yes we have a little nursery room we shall use. Although not decorated it though - that's on the 'to-do' list

I can't believe you are 5 weeks soon! You will be an Appleseed then

Omg I know totally agree about the dust! It's awful. I waited until they told me they were done making a mess, then I cleaned all day Friday. Of course they will still be tracking in and making a mess. It drives me crazy. We have the 'shoes off at the door' rule. It makes me cringe when they walk back and forth with the door wide open! The bathroom looks great though. So it will all be worth it

I don't have a room for the nursery yet?!?! We have a 3 bedroom house and we have 2 kids already. DS is 12 and DD is 6. So they can't exactly share a room, ya know! We enclosed a carport and made it a 'playroom' a few years ago. I'm sure we will wait and feel REALLY comfortable with the pregnancy before we figure out where the baby is going. For now, in my head, DS should be 'moving on up' to the big playroom and baby will go in his old room. That seems to be the most logical at this point.

Yay for darker line! I remember having those stretching feelings with DD.
Doing good today, it's just making me waiting til Wednesday for doc visit. Ugh, time goes by so slowly!

Will you wait to decorate when you find out? Or are you doing something neutral?

Pichi, we haven't "decorated" yet either. But I thought I should get the painting out of the way while I wasn't pregnant, because I am the handy-women around this house! DH is the fund-er, and I am the do-er. lol.
It's been a while since DD was an infant, but I believe we kept her in our room until she outgrew the bassinet (so maybe 3 mos?). Then I believe we had her in her crib and I would get up to nurse her. And I will be nursing this one, so I think we'll do the same, but I am thinking about one of those pack n plays to put in next to the bed. It might be less stress on me if I didn't have to leave our bedroom.

Klein, that sounds like the most logical plan for the kids. We have a 3 bedroom as well, so after this we'll be full! We currently use the 3rd bedroom as a playroom. And boy it is full of toys that we will be needing to donate!

Alandsa, I love the fruit tickers. It helps to visualize the size a whole lot better

I know it is mighty early, but I am a planner, and I do think about what things we will need, and what changes around the house we will need to do for baby... does anyone else do this? I just can't help myself. I don't want to jump the gun, because I did that last time... and look what happened. But by nature I like to prepare, so maybe if I keep it strictly in my head, and not buy anything until further along, I'll be okay.

Ahhh me too! I was looking at cribs and bedding online yesterday and was brainstorming how the furniture could be arranged in the room I think would be best for the new baby! We have a four bedroom house and no other kids yet, so we have a choice of a couple rooms but I think I picked the one out.
Alandsa, I love the fruit tickers. It helps to visualize the size a whole lot better Then I started thinking about what stuff I could get now if I find good deals, and then if I could be finding clearance clothes that would fit the baby in November/December!

oh, i forgot to mention that I did buy some baby onesie sleep sacks today . Well, I do have two baby showers coming up, one for a friend, and one for my brother and his GF who are having TWINS! But I did get some onesies for our baby too, because I couldn't pass up the deal! Kmart is having a great clearance, where basically every outfit, pajama, or onesie is only $2.79!!! I could not pass that up! They have two clearances every year- one in March (for winter stuff) and I believe the other is after summer. So Virgo, if you have a Kmart, go check it out. And I know by the end of the summer we'll all definitely know our genders (for those who are finding out), so we can get some lovely clothes at that summer clearance for next year! lol.
