SO i found out I am having a boy this past monday and I was so excited. Now it just seems like all there is to do is wait about five more months to get here! I swear I look at his ultrasound pictures at least ten times a day I just cant wait to meet him! So what are some ways to past the weeks by besides buying out every single baby clothes store in town!haha
 
waiting is driving me craaaaaazy too. it's time to start buying BLUE!! i have found with this pregnancy i haven't spent all that much money but have everything i pretty much need. started with buying very few cutesy things that i thought were adorable but really buying what i knew we needed so it has built up over time. few things with the groceries here and there. and now all the precious little clothes and things are rolling in from grandparents and everybody else. that's what helps the time go buy. that and decorating as much as possible. crib is in our room but the baby has his on wall. i bought a pretty cool tree decal to go behind and stuff. everything i do is baby related lol trying to hurry up and wait for him to get here!! also a lot of peopel are keeping a good record book of the first everythings. like the appts and when the baby kicked. take a bump pic every week and save it for your lo! some people do scrap books too but i don't really have the funds to buy all the cute paper bits i would want. i do wish i knew how to knit or sew. i think that would be neat to make something for the baby!!

congrats on team blue!! i think boys are pretty cool. i'm cooking my 3rd right now! xoxo
 
i hope it is ok i am gate crashing in here with you guys. i am 29 but i was pregnant with my first at 17 and had him at 18. i really relate to you guys a whole lot!
 
I think you should just do a lot of research on your pregnancy and parenting and stuff. I mean that's what I do while I wait to find out the sex because I don't like neutrals. lol. I spend a lot of time staring at my bump too lol. You can go on to diffrent websites that have nurseries and look at them all so you have an idea of how you want to decorate and you can start planning it out. Or you can find things to stimulate the baby with and spend time doing that. just a few suggestions
 
I know it might seem that once you've hit the big milestones there's nothing left to be excited about (other than birth) but there's so many things to look forward to before then :) the first time your baby gets hiccups, when your belly starts moving, the first time he reacts to music or different sounds. there's lots more little milestones to hit yet :) xx
 
I've also just found out I'm on Team Blue, and I've been buying a lot of cute little lad clothes. :), I just wish I could meet him now! So, I know how you feel x
