Ask at the counters what their return policies are. I know most all places will take them after the 30 days. Walmart, babies r us etc
Specify if I don't need anymore in this size will I be able to return these in 4 months?
And the 10$ off Huggies is that only in the us or Canada too?
I started reading books on labor and delivery and breastfeeding and... wow. I should have started reading this stuff a long time ago! I didn't even think about it until I hit the third trimester, and now I feel like I have so much to do in the course of three months. its a little overwhelming.
Question for you ladies discussing freezing meals, what is the best container to use for storing them? And how far in advance is best to cook them?
Another one of those rants on "Oh you just wait and see."
Grrr. I posted on FB this morning that I only had 3.5 hrs of sleep last night and that I must be prepping for January. I later commented that one night of sleep deprivation isn't the problem but that I experienced MONTHS of sleep deprivation in vet school and I knew I could survive it.
I'm sure you know where this is going. Someone chimes in, "Oh you'll survive but it's nothing like that. It's way worse and your brain is gone." This came from a woman with NO support network, family, or friends nearby and who's husband works 16-18 hrs a day. Maybe it's true, but why at every step of the way is motherhood an EFFING competition??? Someone always has to point out how much worse it will be or was for them.
Is it too much to ask for moms to be supportive and non-competitive with first time moms?
Wish i had the energy to cook. I am the worlds worst wife lol
I got so much "oh you just wait" comments when I was pregnant with Eva. People were horrified when they found out ihad no family around. I was so prepared to move states to be with family and support. But when she was born I spent weeks waiting for the inevitable "life will be turned upside down" and it never happened. My life was very much the same but I had a baby on the hip. I was still the same person doing all the same things. With just a couple of night time wake ups thrown in. But in all honesty the night time feedings aren't even Thayer bad. You're so used to them by the time baby is here you don't wake every 3 hours saying "oh my god I wish I was dead" you wake saying "hello little baby ready for a feed?". don't get me wrong there was a few rough nights but it's all apart of just being a mum and not every night is a rough night. On Eva's 3rd night she literally cried the entire night. I was so incredibly lost on what to do and felt totally out of my element and was completely knackered. The next morning my milk came in and I virtually slept all day. Lol.
Everytime someone I know falls pregnant I tell them one thing "ignore the negative motherhood comments, sure it has it's rough times but its a million times more fun and enjoyable than it is bad"
but then again most people think me and Eva are some kind of exception to the ruleb and she's just an easy baby.

Is anyone else getting hungrier? I know that towards the end we are suppose to take in more calories anyway but yikes. lol! Today I seem to have added in another meal. Of course that may be ok as I don't eat a bigger portion ... could be I'm just needing more for the growing baby. lol!
Do any of you plan on touring the hospital? I was thinking about doing that in the next couple weeks.
Also I was curious who do u plan on having in the delivery room? I think we talked about it a while ago and does anybody plan on having a photographer?
I'm planning on it. They only do it Mondays at 5. And no photographer, just hubby that will have to multitask while trying to not pass out
Oh, and I'm getting hungrier... I know I should only be eating 300 calories plus a day, but man... I ain't counting calories while pregnant LOL
So glad to hear it is gone, DeeDee!
So glad to hear it is gone, DeeDee!
Thank you sweetie! Imma try not to mess with my vajayjay anymore
I don't want to put unrealistic expectations in people's heads but when people would ask me "so how's being a mum?" I'd always reply "not anywhere near as hard as I expected, its pretty great"
But I did have a good sleeper and napped during the day.
sleep does so much for our emotions and state of mind.
