Oh I suppose that is possible! We will see how it looks tomorrow

So question unrelated to babies.... Does anyone here have short hair? I have been considering going short for a while, but I haven't really ever had short hair so i'm nervous. I really like the attached cut. What do you girls think?

Loving all the BF talk! Keep it coming, such great suggestions from everyone so far, thank you for sharing!

 

[cmr01]

Yes I agree love all the tips. Thanks ladies. Ill for sure keep all this in mind for later times. On another note ive never really had morning sickness but the last 2 days ive been getting sick. WTH!!! Still havent actually thrown up but a few times really close. I thought I beat the ms in the butt. Guess not.

Mine is shorter than that. I love having it short. It's so low maintenance. I say go for it!

NellyLou, I love it! Do it!! I've been thinking of doing that exact cut myself. Figured it's cute and low maintenance!

 

[NellyLou]

Scheduled the cut for Friday evening! Eeek!

I'm excited for a good breastfeeding relationship this time. Both times before anxiety made me cave to exclusive pumping. This time I hope will be different. I got an app recommended by a friend (a LLL leader) called "breastfeeding solutions". Full of great tips and advice from what I've peeked at already.

 

[NellyLou]

I wonder if there is such thing as a breastfeeding doula. Not that lactation consultants aren't good, they are just so busy. I think it would be awesome to have someone who could be there with me for the first 24-48 hours to help out and be supportive. After my first was born, I was basically left alone with my daughter for 6 hours so didn't feed her in that time because I didn't know how... and everyone said they don't need to be fed in the first 24 hours anyway. I know that's not true now, so want the best experience possible this time.

 

[MrsKChicago]

There are post-partum doulas. I bet some of them are really experienced in breastfeeding help.

 

[NellyLou]

Great! I am definitely going to look into it. I think they would be an amazing help!

I just scheduled a private gender scan for Oct 4th! I will be almost 16 weeks. This place does them as early as 14 weeks & they let you come back for free if they're unable to see anything. I'm sooooo anxious!!

 

[NellyLou]

Nice Snowbunnie! I so want an early gender scan, but they are so expensive! I may ask for one for my birthday haha... We will see!

I think the only way you can get a gender scan here in Ottawa is to do the 3D scans. I think you need a doctor's requisition for all other ultrasounds. From the ones I have seen, it is $125 minimum for the 3d ultrasounds.

Yeah, this is just an early 2d gender determination. Their 3D scans start at $200 I think

Wow that's A lot of money

Nice! I am so impatient. I want to know who is in there now!

So, the geneticist called me and said my results on the Panorama test were inconclusive. Boo. No gender this week for me. Now I have to redo the test and wait another two weeks. WAAAAAH!
