**New & Crazy** friendly group thread ((5 BFPs))

I swear if I wasn't getting a heavy period each month I'd swear I was pregnant! But this is what A curve in your lower spine that pushes your stomach forward, combined with gaining weight, combined with being stressed (Which includes eating bad and not going to the bathroom regularly! lol) And being in Prednisone for allergies which adds 10 pounds of water weight in about a week. UGH! But I was also PUSHING my stomache out too. Its not actually THIS bad normally! :haha:

But seriously, this is why I can get away with parking in mothers spots :growlmad:

In happy news though, I got my hair cut today. I chopped it off. Told DH I was getting a trim and I showed up with 5 inches off! He likes my hair short, so it was a nice surprise :)

This was it before, from a couple of weeks ago.

Horrible picture of me, but just pay attention to the hair :p

Have you picked out a crib already? Are you going for a modern feel or a traditional feel?
 
I like both lights Liz, but I'm going with Sheryl on if it depends if its a modern or more traditional furniture look. 1st light with go for Modern, 2nd light for traditional. Personally I like the modern look better though :)
 
I like the modern. I just can't picture a crib that would go with it.
 
These are the stock photos of the crib :hugs:

It's very modern looking with clean lines. I think you should get the square modern lights. We still need to put up the ceiling fan we got for the nursery a few months ago. I don't think we are going to change the paint color. Just repaint because DH never repainted that room when he moved in and there are white spots.
 
Thx! I like the one of the left more. DH likes the one on the right.... so I told DH that I get 1.5 votes because of the baby :) hehehe
 
Hey ladies,

Liz, I like the one on the left too.

Heather, I love the short hair.

Sheryl, How are you feeling these days?
 
I am doing much better since I switched to my One a day Gummy. Still getting 800 folic acid but not nauseous all day anymore. My only complaint today is that I can't seem to get full.
 
Hi everybody! Let's see if I can play quick catch up:

Hi Ready! Hope you're doing well.

TL - I don't remember exact HB, but I think it was around 150.

Heather - Love the new hair cut! Very sharp :)

Liz - I like the square light better too, particularly with your lovely modern style crib. What color are you painting the walls? (Just wondering cause I thought the creamy coffee colored walls in the crib stock photos looked smashign with the furniture!)

Sheryl -I know what you mean about never getting full. I've been that way off and on too, always seems to mean baby and I are about the have a growth spurt.

Me - Had a lovely weekend. Spent lots of time outside in temps in the 50's. Was so nice to get so much fresh air and sun. Starting picking colors to paint our back deck and got moving on a project to replace an exterioir door and all the surrounding rotted framining. Perfect mix of relaxing weekend and getting stuff done! :)
 
So happy! Work is super stressful this week but my progesterone levels came back and they increased from 12.4 to 29.8 so I won't have to take any more progesterone pills once I finish the about 2 weeks of pills I have left.

I tend to like strong "actual" colors, not muted/pale colors... but for the baby room, I'm starting to realize that I probably should go with a very light color like the one in the stock photo b/c it'll make the room look larger....

Hubby wants to use grey for the room though b/c we bought some recently to start painting the whole house... well, now there just isn't any time so instead of wasting the paint, he'd like to use it for the baby room... so we might have to try a test swatch to see if it is too dark... but we kinda need the crib in the room first to be able to tell how the furniture will look with the color... oh and since my baby showers aren't til early July, I'm tempted to just buy the crib myself!!! :dohh:
 
I thought people usually did by the nursery furniture on their own? I know I am planning to.

Possibly.. but between our families, the parents usually try & buy at least some of the big ticket items: crib / rocking chair / pump etc etc

My MIL actually asked my hubby last week if my mom had mentioned yet buying the crib for us... she didn't want to step on any toes (since her other DIL's mother had a fit when it was mentioned... "only the mother of the pregnant woman should buy the crib blah blah blah family tradition blah blah"... DH said he'd ask me but didn't think my parents were like that other MIL....

And she's not. My mom doesn't care who buys what :thumbup:

So, in any case... If we are going with a grey color, I'll be buying a decal for the walls to lighten it up like these...
