January Jellybeans 2013!...

I bought nursing bras around 20 weeks because I thought with the couple sizes my boobs had grown, I'd be ok. I was wrong. They are getting quite tight.

The baby!

 

[DittyByrd]

I want to buy nursing bras so badly, but I did with the boys and never got to nurse.

Ditty, we have a certain kitty who thinks the baby stuff is for her too. I think she's jealous! pain in the butt she is!

Ditty

I'm hating these insulin shots already so far in 2 days I've had to poke my self 2 times cuz not all of it got in my skin

@ditty: Awww, I love your cats!

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Hubby apologized with lots of kisses for me and Matthew when I told him how I felt. I'm a sucker and I forgave him on the spot hahahaha.

They certainly think they are special.

I've got all these people worried that I let them inspect and sleep in/on baby things. Seriously??? I am NOT going to let them sleep in the crib with the baby or be with him/her unsupervised. It's called a door and I can close it. I am an expert on cat behavior, I think I have this covered.

My theory is that I will let them check it out and enjoy it. Then there is no fear when baby comes and less stress on them (therefore, less chance of peeing outside box and displaced aggression). Additionally, anyone who knows anything about cats knows that closed doors are the greatest temptation and they MUST rush in as soon as the door is opened. Figured lots of exposure would take the novelty out of it.

I bought bunny slippers for the hospital!! With big floppy ears!! I figure if I'm in labor I might as well have some fabulous shoes on... And cheer up the nurses so they're nicer to me!

I think I've gained close to 40lbs... I stopped looking at the doctor and told them I don't want to know. They seem to respect that and only one person has said something about my weight during all my appointments so I'm not too worried about it.

Super cute cats, ditty! Just be careful, I think they tend to advise keeping cats out of baby furniture because they can curl up against baby's warmth and smother the baby. Not sure how common that really is? But just wanted to let you know!!

Whoops! Just saw you commented on this... I hope you don't think I was trying to criticize! You know your pets better than anyone else! And I agree with letting them sniff around. I've been trying to let my own kitty explore the nursery space to get used to it before baby arrives.

 

[brieri1]

Those kitties are super cute! I wish I had pets. But my apartment complex doesn't allow it, and even if it did, my husband says we don't need to take on something like that when we have a baby on the way. I'm jealous, though.

No problem! I am super touchy about people who know I am a veterinarian (AKA, my MIL who has never even owned a cat) giving me advice on cats and cat behavior. I know not all of you know my occupation (until now!) and that's fine.

 

[Kaiecee]

I miss having cats but dh is allergic so I had to give my cat away but I gave it to my kids father where the kids are most of the time

 

[ARuppe716]

That's awesome you're a veterinarian!! I could see where that would make you totally bonkers with people making comments! I'm glad no hard feelings

People who know you're a veterinarian give you advice on animals? How odd.

I think it's odd, too!!! I would never tell a police officer how to secure his weapon, ya know?

Can't wait for more updates, Betheney!

Good to see u here betheney u must be so busy now again congrats remi is soooo cute

 

[sassy_mom]

I really feel behind now! I think you ladies seriously have it together better than I do! I know what size nursing bra I will need simply because even with before I was pregnant I was in the dang that's huge size so there was no where for me to go to but the big one ... have I bought any ... of course not! I need the nursing bra, pads for leaking, pump, cream, boppy pillow, comfy pajamas, underwear for destroying, and any pads or depends, along with toiletries for being clean (shampoo, toothpaste, etc) AND after I manage to buy all that, I need to actually pack it. I feel totally unprepared this go around. I feel like I have the mentality that it still is so far away. Um I have 36 days ... if not sooner. I need to get on it! Hopefully this weekend will have me on things and situated. With all the cervix headbanging she is doing, it is a miracle she hasn't fallen out yet!!!
