(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

Riley was in his own crib by 2 months and sleeping thru the night dh doesn't want the baby to get too attached to sleeping in our room so he said 2 months for the new baby too
 
We had our eldest sleep in our room with us until she was 19m old - a month before her sister was due to be born. WE had to move out of the bedroom though - we are four people in a one bedroom flat(apartment), so we made the bedroom into "the kids room" and we sleep on a sofa bed in the lounge. She had no problems at all in adjusting, but then she's a good sleeper and self settled at that point anyway.

When our youngest was born her cot would be in the bedroom, but she co-sleeps with us after midnight.

When the baby comes (we'll be in a new house with two bedrooms), we will have the cot in our room while she's waking often, but as soon as her sleep is a bit better she'll go I to the bedroom with her sisters. I hope it won't be too long; our youngest was sharing a room with the eldest when she was 3m old :)
 
Morning all :wave:

I was just reading through the conversation...I plan on buying this co sleeper. I LOVE the idea of it!

I don't want my kids to be in my room too long I need my space with dh and they need not to be scared to sleep alone
 
I'm thinking based off you guys and my friends we will have the baby in our room for the first 2-3 months. But then move it into the nursery, we plan on having a video monitor. I don't want to get it too used to being in our room making the transition hard, but also feel that it will make it so much easier for the first couple months for the 1,000 times we will be having to get up :haha:
 
It's def a personal preference as far as sleeping situation. Dd loves her own crib and room and dh and I love our bedroom privacy. On the other hand my sil has her 3 yr old and 5 month old still sleeping in their bed and they prefer that. If you do want to move your baby into their own rm at some pt the sooner you do it the easier the transition will be on you and the baby.
 
I like that cosleeper alot...we will probably end up cosleeping again...DD is still in our bed. :dohh:

I got my first dr's appt on May 1st! Can't wait!!!

Also...here is my first bump pic!!

I'm jealous that you have a flat stomach after having a baby already; after my first I was left with loads if stretched skin :(
 
I wish my tummy looked like that and I have never had a baby! :haha:

I also love seeing this... The pic is blurry, but man is that test line dark! I just bought some of the clear blue digis that have the conception indicator on it from online, I'm so impatient and need anything I can get to reassure myself till my 1st u/s

I have a lot of stretches and loose skin. I did ALOT of core work to tighten back up. Now it's going to stretch again. Oh well. Totally worth it!

Thanks Hun. I actually gained 8 lbs since my mc in January. :blush:

Beautiful test! I love the conception indicator one, no doubt yours will
Say 3+!

I LOVE my video monitor. It's the #1 thing I had to get and it has made such a difference. My daughter has always been so sneaky. She'll wake up and not say a word, get out of her crib and go get in trouble. I would never be able to leave her through nap time if I didn't have a video monitor. Such peace of mind!

Those are neat! I considered getting one, then went the cheap way and changed our convertible crib into a day bed and pushed that to the side of our bed. It's basically a three sided crib.

Is anyone not have sore boobs cause i don't

I do, but I'm breastfeeding so that probably has something to do with it.

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow, and my ultrasound is in the morning! Having a hard time sitting still today.

Here's my bump pic from exactly 5 weeks (the dating in the pic is off). I do them weekly, so I'm due for another tomorrow. Can't wait to get a bump going!!

My boobs themselves don't hurt, but my nipples do, but I'm BF so I put it down to being pregnant AND breastfeeding.
 
LADIES!! Could not wait to get on here today! JUST had my first ultrasound and i'm a little over 5 wks today, baby looks great and best of all... WE SAW A HEARTBEAT!!! Couldn't believe my eyes. It was beautiful .. of course I cried.. Fear not ladies made sure to attach pics! First one is the U/S and second one is my eency weency bump.. went from 127pounds to 124 since i've been pregnant .. shocking since I eat like it's going out of style!

I agree...its super early...with my daughter I went at 5w6d and no hb...scared the crap out of me...they made me wait a whole week and it was there...but yeah, 5w4d is DEF early to see the HB!! eeks!!

I have to wait 2 weeks just to see my OB and make the appt for my scan...oh well..at least by the time I have the scan there will be something to see...
